Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 511

But why would Rupert assist Shelia?

Domenic suspected that his uncle was beginning to think he had a secret relationship.

Could his uncle have figured out that Lindsey was the woman in question?

It looked like he needed to keep his distance from Lindsey for a while.

Domenic massaged his temples.

He could stay composed in most situations, but he couldn’t shake the inexplicable irritation of not being able to see Lindsey.

That afternoon, Lindsey wrapped up her work.

She glanced at her watch, realizing it was dinner time.

She was eager to give Domenic a call.

“Hello.

I’ve got some good news for you.

I’ve wrapped up my tasks.

Are you still stuck with overtime? If you can finish work sooner, we…”

“Linds.

” Out of the blue, Domenic cut in with a low-toned voice.

Listening to her cheerful and crisp voice, Domenic sensed a slight tightness in his chest.

He spoke in a low, composed tone, “I need to head back to my grandfather’s place for a while.

He called and mentioned he wasn’t feeling well.

I’m concerned about him, so I thought I’d return to keep him company for some time.

”

“Is your grandfather okay?” Lindsey expressed her concern, saying, “You should head back as soon as possible.

If needed, consider taking him to the hospital.

Don’t delay, or a small issue might become a big one.

It could be troublesome.

”

Domenic did intend to spend some time at his grandpa’s place, ensuring he could stay informed about the situation.

He had no intention of letting his uncles take advantage of his absence to plot anything in secret.

However, when Domenic sensed that Lindsey was incredibly considerate and had complete trust in him, without a shred of doubt, he felt heavy in the heart.

“Linds…” Domenic called out her name with a hoarse voice.

“Is something bothering you? Are you feeling down?” Lindsey noticed the sadness in his voice.

With his captivating voice, Domenic replied, “Yes, I’m feeling a bit down knowing that I won’t get to see you for a while.

”

His playful tone caused Lindsey to break into laughter.

“If you want to see me, you can come over anytime.

Plus, even if you’re busy and won’t see me for a few days, it’s not like it’s forever.

Since your grandfather isn’t feeling well, it’s good that you’re going back to keep him company.

Sometimes, older people claim they’re sick when they’re not truly unwell.

They felt lonely and used this tactic to grab their families’ attention.

If you go back and spend time with him, maybe he’ll recover back soon.

”

After a brief pause, Domenic had something on his mind but decided to keep it to himself.

Finally, he whispered, “Make sure you look after yourself when I’m not around.

”

“Don’t worry about me.

I’m swamped with work since the company just started.

I’ll sleep just fine without you around.

”

“Oh? Really?” Domenic’s teasing reply made Lindsey’s face blush.

“Ahem, I mean…”

“Get some good rest and wait for me to return…” Domenic chuckled knowingly.

“Try not to miss me too much on those lonely nights.

”

“Make sure you’re not the one missing me too much.

”
