He realized he had made her feel disgusted.

In her eyes, he must seem like a creepy, hateful stalker.

Domenic wanted to explain himself, but he found himself at a loss for words.

He had to admit she was right.

He had doubted her intentions from the start, and even after they got together, he suspected she was cheating on him.

He despised himself for doubting her so much.

Domenic took a step forward and tried to hold her hand, but Lindsey stepped back with fear, as if he was a beast that could bite her at any time.

The mix of fear and disappointment in her eyes pierced his heart.

He realized with a sinking feeling that he might be losing her.

Lindsey gave Domenic a sad, ironic smile and said, I’ve always trusted and liked you, never questioning your private matters.

But now, I’m starting to doubt if I really know what kind of person you are.

Domenic’s eyes narrowed with intensity.

He moved swiftly, seizing her wrist and gently pinning Lindsey against the wine cabinet in the living room.

A few wine bottles in the cabinet rattled before one tumbled to the floor with a series of cracking noises.

The wine spilled out, forming a pool beneath their feet.

Yet, Domenic remained still.

He leaned in and enveloped Lindsey in a tight embrace.

“What are you doing? Let go of me! Don’t touch me!” Lindsey protested, trying to free herself.

Despite her efforts to break free, Domenic didn’t let go.

He was terrified that she might run away if he let go of her.

He was afraid that he would lose her forever.

Domenic gazed at the woman before him, his eyes swirling with complex feelings.

He planned to reveal everything to her, just not yet.

He kept his true identity hidden, staying by her side solely for her protection.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to talk about it; he simply couldn’t make things clear to her at this moment.

“Domenic, if you don’t release me, I’m going to get really upset!”

Tears started forming in Lindsey’s eyes.

“If I let you go, you won’t be upset?” Domenic asked softly.

The man, usually so confident, was at a loss now.

He couldn’t figure out how to lift her spirits and make her stop hating him.

Lindsey stood there, shocked, biting her lip.

She was clearly upset.

She was mad that he hadn’t trusted her and had followed her in secret.

Noticing Lindsey’s frown and silent stance, her nose red with emotion, Domenic realized she was angry whether he released his grip or not.

Wanting to ease her anger, Domenic bowed his head and gently yet firmly ki*sed her lips, trying to express his remorse through the ki*s.
