Chapter 228
After briefly looking at the trending topics on Emilio’s phone, Domenic nonchalantly pushed the phone away and resumed reading his documents, seemingly indifferent to the news.
Emilio was puzzled.
He had hurried over specifically because Lindsey’s name hit the trending topic.
Yet, Domenic appeared unbothered.
Why was he so calm?
It appeared that he was utterly indifferent to the situation.
Had there been a disagreement with Lindsey? Or worse, had their relationship ended?
Emilio was confused.
“Domenic, do you want me to handle this issue? But both involved are from the company.
It seems unfair to take sides.
”
Domenic glanced at him coldly and said, “Do you have nothing to do?
Why are you concerned with such minor matters? Tell you what, I’ll have Hendrix bring over the stack of documents from the reference room to your office.
You seem to have plenty of time on your hands to go through them.
”
““Well-” Embarrassed, Emilio scratched his head.
“Oh, I just recalled an urgent task I need to attend to.
I must go now!”
With that, he hurriedly exited Domenic’s office.
Once alone, Domenic stopped what he was doing.
He took out his phone, meticulously scrolled through the trending news about Lindsey, and then pocketed his phone again.
He knew Lindsey well enough to believe that her making this bet meant she was sure of victory.
He was curious to see how she would turn the tide in her favor.

A few days later, on the weekend, Vincent and his wife celebrated their wedding anniversary.
They hosted a dinner party at their villa, inviting a gathering of celebrities and high-ranking representatives from premium business brands.
The event was undoubtedly a gathering of stars.
The highlight of the evening was the anticipated arrival of Kristy Chase, accompanied by her agent Jayleen Archer.
Their recent headline-making exploits had significantly boosted their popularity.
Even before their arrival, they were the main topic of conversation.
“Kristy and Jayleen will be here.
Do you think Selah and Lindsey will make an appearance?”
“Selah’s attendance seems unlikely.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
It doesn’t seem like Vincent invited her.
And Lindsey? She’s relatively new in the industry.
It’s hard to imagine her catching Vincent’s eye.
”
“That’s for sure.
Without Selah, Kristy is bound to steal the show as the movie’s leading Lady!”
Suddenly, a red Ferrari stopped on the villa’s driveway, capturing everyone’s attention.
