Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

Lindsey emerged from the bathroom to find Domenic, slipping back into his suit and doing up his tie.

“Are you heading out?” she asked, pausing her hair drying.

Domenic inhaled deeply.

Feeling guilty, he said to Lindsey, “Sorry, Linds.

My boss needs me back at work immediately.

It’s an emergency.

”

Lindsey felt a twinge of disappointment but understood completely.

She knew all too well the demands of work.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“Then you better get going.

And drive safely,” she told him.

“Wait for me.

” He gave her a goodbye kiss, and rushed off.

As Domenic walked into the living room of his grandpa’s house, he found Carole in a conversation with his grandpa.

“Domenic, here’s the plan for your engagement party tomorrow.

Have a look.

”

Jordan offered a piece of paper to Domenic, who didn’t accept it.

He responded half-heartedly, “I’ll follow whatever you suggest.

”

What captured his interest more was the guest list.

The list featured his relatives and some of his grandfather’s business associates.

On the other hand, Carole had only just returned to the country and she didn’t have many acquaintances in the city.

So Domenic guessed that all their guests had nothing to do with Lindsey.

Domenic cast a glance toward Carole, his expression difficult to read.

Suddenly, Carole approached him, holding a small box.

She said, “Domenic, check out the engagement ring I picked.

What’s your opinion?”

She opened the box to reveal a glittering ring with diamonds, named the “Heart Of True Love”, which Lindsey admired greatly at the jewelry store.

Domenic briefly replied, “It’s lovely.

”

Carole stepped closer and whispered, “You have to place this ring on my finger tomorrow.

”

After a brief hesitation, she added, “We need to convince your grandfather our engagement is genuine.

”

Domenic glanced at his grandfather, who was looking at them with affection.

He then accepted the box and agreed as he said, “Okay.

”

The scene, portraying them as a loving young couple, made Jordan smile contentedly.

Seeing Domenic’s agreement and the hint of warmth in his response, Carole couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

Unable to contain herself, she chuckled with arrogance, imagining Lindsey’s reaction.

Tomorrow, Lindsey would find out she was merely Domenic’s fling and that only Carole could be his true fiancée.
