Chapter 997

Lindsey’s decision to move in also subtly confirmed this news.

Relieved, Leonel realized she was likely still processing her breakup and chose not to probe further.

He reached out to take her suitcase.

It was only then that Lindsey snapped out of her reverie and quickly said, “Leonel, I can handle it myself…”

He glanced at her and remarked, “Even if you’ve lost your boyfriend, you still have me by your side.

”

Then he pulled her suitcase and led the way.

Watching his determined, tall figure, a rush of warmth filled Lindsey’s heart.

She hastened to catch up, walking alongside him.

“The new medication will be launched in a few days.

Remember our deal,” he suddenly said, recalling their contract.

It dawned on Lindsey that Xiomara had agreed to endorse that medication and would be involved in several promotional events after its release.

With all the recent upheaval, Lindsey had somewhat neglected her professional responsibilities, especially those involving her artists and her agency.

She resolved to focus, pushing thoughts of Domenic aside.

“I’m aware.

We’ve got the contract, and I’ll make sure Xiomara makes time for your events.

Don’t worry about it,” she assured him.

Leonel nodded in acknowledgment.

It suddenly occurred to Lindsey that the next filming session for Star Search would be on Thursday and she rushed to add, “Thursday marks the final shoot for Star Search, and Xiomara is set to join.

Let’s plan around that to avoid any conflicts.

”

Leonel’s brow furrowed slightly.

“The schedule for the event is set by the research center and I can’t change that.

However, I will inform the marketing team and try to adjust the times as much as possible.

”

“Sure, thank you,” Lindsey responded with appreciation.

Leonel paused before adding, “After the event, let’s invite Xiomara for a meal.

It’s on me.

”

Lindsey lifted her eyes to her brother’s composed face, noting his attempt at nonchalance.

A subtle smile touched her lips as she agreed, “Sure, that sounds good.

”

Leonel tightened his lips and changed the subject.

“By the way, make sure you visit Sumner.

”

She nodded in understanding.

“I will.

”

Lindsey was grateful for Sumner’s assistance, which had enabled her to attend the Walsh Group’s celebration.

Moreover, she needed to discuss the upcoming filming with him.

Beyond these, she had to handle the ongoing legal disputes with those partners seeking to break their contracts with her company.

The days ahead promised to be hectic.

Nancy had been managing various responsibilities for the company recently, facing considerable challenges.

Lindsey resolved to grant Nancy a few days off to recuperate once she returned.

As for herself, Lindsey planned to immerse herself in the workload.

Staying busy could just help her escape the ache lingering in her heart.

The following day, Lindsey made her way to the hospital to see Sumner.

Descending the stairs to the inpatient department, she spotted Paige, gently guiding Sumner in a wheelchair through a peaceful park.
