Chapter 959

Domenic’s brow furrowed.

Lindsey’s use of “Mr.

Walsh” instead of “Domenic” sent a pang of discomfort through him.

It highlighted the strain in their relationship.

“Linds…”

Lindsey’s cold voice cut him off.

“Do you still remember that you promised me to return Cherish to my mother when she woke up? Although the CEO I met at that time wasn’t you, I believe it was your order.

”

Lindsey now was certain that the CEO she’d met was an imposter arranged by Domenic to conceal his true identity.

He really had gone to great lengths to deceive her.

“Of course, I remember,” Domenic replied, his heart aching as he spoke.

Lindsey looked up at him.

“She’s awake now.

”

“Your mother is awake?” Domenic’s eyes lit up.

“When?”

“A few days ago,” she said.

“I went to Vitality Group to find you, but you didn’t see me.

”

Suddenly, it dawned on Domenic that Carole had called about Lindsey’s visit.

He had dismissed it as a test and hadn’t taken it seriously.

Later, the receptionist confirmed there was no record.

So, she did visit…

“That was actually…”

“Doesn’t matter,” Lindsey interrupted, her eyes distant.

“Since I couldn’t see you, I came here.

Will you honor your promise?”

Domenic, seeing her determination, took out his phone and dialed a number, putting it on speaker.

A familiar voice filled the room.

“Domenic, what’s wrong?” It was Emilio.

Lindsey glanced at Domenic, a flicker of surprise crossing her face.

Domenic’s gaze lingered on Lindsey.

He spoke into the phone.

“Emilio, Lindsey’s mother is awake.

”

“Wow! That’s fantastic!” Emilio’s response surprised Lindsey.

“You don’t know how much effort I’ve put in to maintain Cherish’s status in the industry,” Emilio continued, a mix of complaint and pride in his voice.

“I secured a few top designers, barely keeping the brand afloat.

The last launch wasn’t a runaway success, but it held some ground.

The market still has faith in Cherish.

”

He wasn’t just doing this for Domenic; he also wanted to help Lindsey keep her mother’s legacy.

“But let’s be honest,” Emilio conceded, “these designers can’t hold a candle to Juanita.

Cherish has a foothold in luxury, but it’s a shadow of its former self.

Now that Juanita’s awake, Cherish can finally reclaim its brilliance.

The chairperson’s position has always been hers.

She can return anytime and take full control.

”

“Alright then.

Thank you for your hard work, Emilio.
