Chapter 991

He had never felt so let down.

If Domenic wanted to strike out on his own, then he would have to realize that without the backing of the Walsh family, he was nothing.

Jordan narrowed his eyes, giving Domenic a sharp look, and said slowly, “As long as you strike a deal with me, I’ll allow you to leave the Walsh Group.

”

“What kind of deal?” Domenic asked seriously.

Jordan grinned.

“I’ll give you three years.

If you don’t succeed, you come back, marry Carole, and take over the Walsh Group.

”

Domenic responded coldly, “Grandpa, I’m just letting you know, not bargaining.

”

“If you agree to this deal, I’ll leave Lindsey alone.

But if you don’t… Well, I can’t promise there won’t be consequences for others.

”

Jordan fixed Domenic with a piercing gaze, as if he had found Domenic’s weakness.

Domenic’s face hardened, his fists clenched slightly.

“Unless you’re sure you can keep Lindsey safe from me.

” Jordan dropped the act and threatened him.

Domenic lacked that kind of confidence.

If he did, he wouldn’t have concealed his identity to be with Lindsey from the start, keeping it under wraps for so long.

He could only do his best to keep her safe, but at the same time, he was afraid he might not succeed.

So ever since Domenic stepped off that cruise ship, he had made sure his men kept a close watch on her, worried that something bad might happen to Lindsey again.

But there would always be things overlooked.

Lindsey could only truly be safe if his grandpa was genuinely willing to let her go.

With this in mind, Domenic replied without hesitation, “Okay, I promise you.

”

Hearing that, Jordan’s lips twitched subtly.

The Walsh Group could handle anyone with ease.

He was certain Domenic would face challenges once he left the Walsh Group and would eventually come back.

When Domenic would come back to him, things could go back to normal.

After Domenic left, Carole approached Jordan and knelt before him.

“Are you really going to let Domenic leave the Walsh Group so easily? If he succeeds, he may never return.

”

“Don’t worry,” Jordan assured her with a smile.

“I won’t let him succeed, no matter what.

”

Carole felt a bit relieved hearing this.

“Are you really going to let Lindsey go?” she asked.

“Since I’ve promised Domenic, I’ll stick to it,” Jordan replied.

Jordan now knew that Domenic wasn’t as easily fooled as before.

He had grown up and become more mature, less likely to be tricked Like a child.

“Carole, I can only support you to a certain extent.

If you want to win his heart, you’ll have to do it on your own.

”

Jordan rose from the sofa wearily, saying, “I’m tired.

Help me back to my room for some rest.

”

“Sure thing.

Lean on me”.

Carole offered, supporting Jordan’s arm gently.
