Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 761

Rupert felt like he was punching thin air, utterly disheartened.

Since Jordan had spoken, it meant he’d launched an inquiry through someone.

Plus, Jordan had pampered Domenic from diapers.

If Rupert tried to push all the blame to Domenic, it’d only stir the pot, raising Jordan’s suspicions.

Forced to put on a strained smile, Rupert said, “Yeah, he’s still wet behind the ears.

You can teach him a thing or two.

As his uncle, I might throw in some lessons when the stars align.

”

Jordan nodded and massaged his temples.

“Alright, I’m beat.

Carole, escort Rupert out.

”

“Sure thing,” Carole responded dutifully.

Once they stepped out of the manor, Carole’s demeanor turned cold.

Rupert felt a storm brewing.

He’d hoped to use this opportunity to expose Domenic, but Jordan had callously pushed his trusted aide to the front lines.

And Emilio played his part flawlessly, even hoodwinking Jordan.

He muttered to himself, “That guy’s certifiable! They should lock him up in the loony bin for good!”

The two walked in silence until Carole broke it.

“Mr.

Walsh.

”

Rupert stopped, glancing back at the woman behind him.

“Did you already know it wasn’t Emilio who pulled the strings?” She stated this clearly.

She had always been perceptive and skilled at reading people’s minds and estimating their sentiments.

Rupert raised an eyebrow.

“Yep, so what? If Dad’s buying it, no one is going to challenge him.

”

He scanned Carole from head to toe and adopted a pitiful tone.

“Carole, sometimes I can’t help but feel sorry for you.

”

Carole furrowed her brow.

Despite the coldness in her eyes, she maintained her composure.

“What do you mean?”

“Think about it.

Who could get Emilio to willingly play the pawn?”

Rupert looked up at the stars, speaking in a lowered voice.

“Or, in the grand arena of Vitality Group, who could most easily control the vice president?”

Carole caught on quickly.

“You’re saying Domenic is the one who helped Lindsey Stewart?”

“Seems you’ve heard her name more than once.

” Rupert lowered his voice further.

“I’ve had someone tailing those two.

It’s crystal clear Domenic’s not just toying with her.

Even a blind bat can see he’s head over heels for her.

”

“But she doesn’t even know his true identity,” Carole blurted out.

Realizing she’d divulged too much, she promptly sealed her lips.

Rupert sneered.

“Carole, you are too naive.

Lindsey is now a formidable adversary.

Don’t underestimate her.

Your status as Domenic’s future wife won’t remain secure as long as Lindsey is in the game.

” A cunning glint flashed through his eyes.
