Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

His grudge against Domenic had always simmered beneath the surface.

He’d been relieved when Lindsey told him they had broken up.

Seeing them together now, his anger flared anew.

He couldn’t understand why his sister was so smitten with this guy.

“Leonel, it’s not what you think.

We really did break up.

”

Lindsey stopped for a moment, biting her lip.

“He needs to talk to Mom about some other stuff.

”

“What could a useless man like him possibly have to discuss?” Leonel sneered.

“Leonel!” Lindsey’s voice rose, trying to stop him.

She wanted to reveal Domenic’s true identity but feared it would only fuel her brother’s rage and lead to conflict.

Desperately, she turned to her mother for help.

Juanita, snapping out of her shock, sat up in bed and tugged on Leonel’s sleeve.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Leonel, I need to speak with him alone.

You and Linds should step out for a moment.

”

“Why?” Leonel was taken aback, looking at Juanita in disbelief.

“What could you possibly need to talk about with him?”

“Leonel! Are you ignoring my wishes now?”

Juanita’s sharp words stung Leonel, causing his blood to boil, but he shot Domenic one last scalding glare before storming out of the room in a huff.

Lindsey hesitated, her eyes darting between Domenic and Juanita.

“Mom, I’ll be waiting outside.

Give me a holler if you need anything,” she said.

Juanita gave a curt nod, and Lindsey, after a moment of indecision, turned on her heel and exited the room.

Now, it was just Domenic and Juanita.

Domenic approached Juanita with an air of confidence, his brow furrowed with concern.

“Ms.

Lopez, how are you feeling? Any lingering discomfort?” he inquired, his tone laced with genuine care.

Juanita looked up at him, a hint of a smile playing on her Lips.

“There’s no need for such formalities with me.

Please, have a seat, Domenic Walsh the big boss.

”

A flicker of surprise flashed across Domenic’s face, but he obliged, taking a seat next to her.

“It seems you already know who I am.

” Domenic spoke in an even, composed tone, his expression betraying no emotion.

Juanita responded in kind, her words measured and deliberate.

“The youngest scion of the Walsh family, CEO of Vitality Group.

Tell me, why did you hide your true identity to get close to Linds? She’s just a regular girl.

How could she ever be worthy of someone as distinguished as you?”

Her words were laced with a sense of maternal protectiveness.

Domenic lowered his eyes, a soft chuckle escaping his lips as he reminisced about his first encounter with Lindsey and their cherished moments together.

His gaze softened, brimming with affection.

“When Love is in the equation, status is of no importance.

To me, Linds is one-of-a-kind, irreplaceable.

” He looked at Juanita with unwavering sincerity, his eyes reflecting the truth of his feelings.

Juanita felt a flicker of emotion stir within her, but she remained skeptical.

“If you claim to love her, why did you deceive her? Did you ever consider how shattered she would be when the truth came to Light?”

Domenic fell silent, knowing that any explanation would sound like a feeble excuse.

He didn’t need everyone’s understanding; he only needed Lindsey’s.
