Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right -
Chapter 330
He finally pulled over, stepped out, and lit a cigarette.
As he inhaled amidst the city lights, his turmoil began to subside.
Years had taught him to manage his emotions quickly.
His exterior remained calm, but a deep-seated loneliness within him had been growing.
It was Lindsey who had penetrated his closely guarded heart, and now, the fear of losing her grew significant.
Having spent a considerable amount of time alone on the road, Domenic reached the entrance of the hot spring resort.
As he approached, his usual calm demeanor returned.
“Your car…” Lindsey, trailing behind Domenic, halted in front of a silver-gray Bugatti.
The car’s license plate caught her attention, and she found herself momentarily transfixed.
“It belongs to my boss,” Domenic said, his tone nonchalant.
He then opened the driver’s side door and settled into the seat.
With a careful touch, Lindsey opened the passenger door and seated herself, mindful not to damage the Luxury car.
She had always suspected that Domenic’s employer was no ordinary man, but the sight of the car confirmed he must be quite influential.
Driven by curiosity and recalling Sumner’s advice from earlier that day, Lindsey decided to probe a little.
“What kind of business does your boss run?”
“He owns a company,” Domenic answered, his voice carrying a dismissive edge that made
Lindsey’s spirits falter.
He had been sparing with words, much like when they first met.
She sensed the same aloofness, an invisible barrier that seemed to keep others at a distance.
Did he prefer not to engage in conversation with her? Was he deliberately keeping her from learning too much about his life and the people in it?
Lindsey glanced at the man.
His face was handsome but stormy with a coldness that seemed to chill the air around him.
“Are you mad at me?” she asked in a gentle voice.
“No,” Domenic replied curtly, not even giving her a glance as he started the car with a swift turn of the key.
Lindsey clenched her hands and pressed her Lips together, looking out the window in a huff and deciding not to speak to him anymore.
Domenic drove with one hand on the steering wheel, guiding the car with smooth turns.
The rare Bugatti flew down the road, surrounded by an oppressive silence.
Back at the resort’s lounge, Sumner ran into Paige.
“Sumner, weren’t you supposed to see Lindsey off? Why are you back so soon?” Paige asked, surprised.
“Her boyfriend came to pick her up.
No need for me to stay,” Sumner replied casually.
“What?” Paige’s eyes grew wide.
“Lindsey has a boyfriend? I thought she was single!”
“She hadn’t been in a relationship before, but now she has a boyfriend,” Sumner confessed with a hint of melancholy, heading toward his room.
As he passed Paige, he paused, fixing his gaze on her.
“Please, don’t concern yourself with my affairs.
I can manage them on my own.
I hope you won’t inadvertently create misunderstandings next time.
