Other firms were eyeing Selah, and the deal needed closing fast.

But with Emilio on a trip and no return date in sight, Lindsey felt stuck.

Overwhelmed, she considered texting Selah to ask for a delay but hesitated, replaceing the words hard to come by.

Distractedly flipping through her phone, she stumbled upon Domenic’s profile.

He was likely overseas by now.

She wondered if his journey had been safe.

Lindsey typed out a text, “Mr.

Walsh, have you arrived safely? How’s the weather? Is everything alright?”

But just as Lindsey was about to hit send on her message, she stopped.

Remembering Chayce’s threat from that day, Lindsey felt a sharp pain in her heart.

She had resolved to sever ties with Domenic.

Contacting him now was out of the question.

His whereabouts and safety were no longer her concern.

She planned to return his necklace and then move out of this apartment.

Deciding against sending the message, Lindsey set her phone aside and lay back on the sofa, her eyes closed.

Suddenly, her phone chimed with an incoming message.

Was it sent by Mr.

Walsh?

Lindsey picked up the phone quickly.

The moment she saw the message, she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

It was a message from Selah.

“Lindsey, I plan to get a custom-made dress for Mr.

and Mrs.

Lopez’s anniversary banquet next weekend.

Let me know your measurements and I’ll make one for you.

Lindsey politely declined, “That’s alright, Selah.

I can sort out my dress.

Selah was persistent.

“You’ve helped me a lot.

Consider it a thank-you gift.

Please don’t say no.

Lindsey had no choice but to accept her kindness.

“Well, thank you, Selah.

I’ll send it to you after measurement.

Selah responded enthusiastically, “Great, I’ll be waiting!”

Lindsey grabbed a tape measure and quickly took her measurements.

Then she turned on her mobile phone and edited a message to send it out.

Then she placed the phone on the coffee table and went to freshen up.

However, when she returned, she saw a message from Selah.

“Lindsey, did you send the measurements?”
