Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 496

After an affectionate ki*s, Domenic nibbled her earlobe and whispered huskily, “I wanted to ki*s you earlier tonight.

Has anyone ever told you that you look stunning in red?”

Domenic admired the blend of innocence and allure when she wore red.

Because of that red nightgown last time, he was crazy in bed throughout the night.

Lindsey quickly extended her hand to hold his robust chest, pouting as she spoke, “Let’s make a deal first.

You can’t be as intense as last time.

I… I can’t handle it.

”

“I wanted to be tender with you, but I’m sorry, you’re incredibly alluring today.

” Domenic held Lindsey’s waist, burying his head in her soft, fragrant tresses.

He spoke in a low, magnetic voice, “So, don’t get your hopes up too much, Linds…”

His chilly lips trailed down her neck, causing Lindsey’s delicate form to quiver ever so slightly.

She clung tightly to the man’s back, feeling his warmth, his heartbeat, and murmured, “You saw what happened today; I practically have no family left, just like you now.

”

Domenic paused, lifting his gaze to meet Lindsey’s.

Lindsey’s previously composed eyes now glistened with a hint of moisture.

Tears trickled slowly from the corners of her eyes, casting a poignant aura upon her.

Domenic, alarmed, wiped away the tears from her face.

His eyes held a visible depth of affection.

Softly, Domenic uttered, “You still have me.

”

Those incredibly tender words shattered Lindsey’s emotional defenses.

She couldn’t hold back her sobs, tears flowing freely.

Today marked her complete triumph and revenge, yet it offered no solace.

Instead, weariness gripped her heart.

Each step she took today was with much care.

Since when had her life turned into this? She had only wanted an ordinary existence cherished by her parents.

But circumstances had compelled her to be cautious and ruthless.

Ultimately, she emerged as the victor, but it felt like she had sacrificed.

“Mr.

Walsh… You truly adore me and never deceive me, would you?”

Gazing into Domenic’s eyes, Lindsey sought a reassuring response from him, hoping for solace.

Domenic avoided meeting Lindsey’s gaze, gently caressing the hair around her ear as he replied slowly, “Of course… Even if there were things I hid from you, it would only be to safeguard you.

”

“Yet, I wish for complete honesty between us.

There’s nothing we cannot overcome together.

” Lindsey enveloped him in a warm embrace, like a child seeking the purest heart and unconditional love from the one she held dear.

Lindsey peered deeply into Domenic’s eyes, her words deliberate and heartfelt, “I no longer wish to be just your girlfriend.

I want us to be a committed couple, to share our lives.

Why don’t you introduce me to your grandfather? I’ll do my best to win his approval.

”

Domenic, somewhat taken aback, gazed at the woman in his embrace, her anticipation palpable.

He recognized her exceptional qualities and knew that anyone who got to know her would be charmed.

However, the circumstances surrounding his family were extraordinarily delicate.

The timing wasn’t right.

In Jordan’s mind, his son’s decision to marry a commoner, forsake everything, and die for love had always been a sensitive topic.

Domenic wasn’t sure about how his grandfather would react when he discovered Lindsey’s existence.

Would she end up vanishing like those girls from before?

Even if there was a slight chance, he couldn’t risk it.

And his uncles, who had been attempting to oust him from the position of heir, would undoubtedly exploit this situation.
