Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 709

With this in mind, Sumner pulled out his phone and made a call.

Leonel had been immersed in his work at the institute, conducting the final tests for a new drug these past two days.

His phone began to ring.

He considered ignoring it, but when he saw Sumner’s name, he paused and decided to delegate his tasks to his assistant.

Stepping out of the lab, Leonel answered the call.

“Hello, Sumner.

What’s the matter?”

“Leonel, there’s something I’ve been thinking over for quite some time.

I need to discuss it with you.

It’s about Linds.

.

Leonel’s expression turned serious, sensing the conversation involved Lindsey.

Stepping out of the mall, Lindsey felt the early autumn breeze soothe her.

She bit her lip and took out her phone to dial Domenic’s number.

Meanwhile, Hendrix was driving Domenic toward his office.

He noticed his boss’s brow furrowed and his expression dark and threatening.

Hendrix stayed silent in his seat, worried that any word from him might provoke Domenic’s anger.

Then, a unique ringtone pierced the silence of the car.

Hendrix recognized it as the tone for Domenic’s priority contacts, likely Lindsey.

Hendrix cast a curious look at Domenic through the rearview mirror.

To his surprise, Domenic sat there, seemingly oblivious to the ringing phone.

The ringtone stopped, and quietness engulfed the car once more.

But the phone soon broke the silence again.

Domenic continued to stare out the window, ignoring his phone.

“Mr.

Walsh, have you and Miss Stewart had another disagreement?”

Hendrix finally blurted out, surprised by his own boldness.

Only then did Domenic glance back, his gaze sharp and cutting.

“Does it have anything to do with you? One more word, and don’t bother showing up tomorrow.

”

Hendrix fell silent, his mood sour.

“Speak up.

” Domenic’s brows were knit together tightly.

He stared at Hendrix, seemingly puzzled and searching for an answer.

“What’s a woman’s reaction when she catches her boyfriend with another lady?”

Hendrix stole a quick look at Domenic in the rearview mirror, too scared to utter a word.

“Are you looking to get fired?” Domenic’s expression turned even more gloomy at Hendrix’s lack of reply.

In a low voice, Hendrix mumbled, “But you told me to keep quiet.
