Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

Reece leaned forward, his chin resting on his hands, determined to get to the bottom of the matter.

It seemed he wouldn’t assist

Lindsey unless she answered honestly.

Taking a deep breath, Lindsey confessed, “He… he is my boyfriend, but ” But they might be on the verge of breaking up.

Lindsey didn’t finish her sentence, lowering her gaze in gloom.

Reece’s eyes flashed with surprise, yet he began to piece things together.

When Domenic had asked him to defend Selah for free, Reece suspected it was for someone else’s sake.

Emilio had told him it wasn’t for Selah.

Later, Reece discovered that the person most closely linked to the matter, besides Selah, was Lindsey.

Reece had always been curious about who could warrant such a significant favor from Domenic.

Lindsey noticed Reece frowning and lost in thought.

Curious, she asked, “Mr.

Barton, you surely know Domenic, right?”

Reece came back to the moment and offered Lindsey a smile.

“Yes, I do know him.

Carole glanced quickly at Lindsey, her lips pursing in disapproval.

Before he could respond, Reece stood and waved energetically.

Noticing this, Carole tugged at Domenic’s sleeve and, with a gentle smile, led him towards Reece.

Taking a deep breath, Domenic reluctantly followed.

“Reece!” Feigning ignorance of Lindsey’s presence, Carole warmly greeted Reece, “It’s great to see you here!”

Reece, with a gentle expression, nodded toward Lindsey, who was seated opposite him.

“Miss Stewart invited me,” he explained.

Carole’s eyes narrowed into a subtle, mocking smile as she turned to face Lindsey.
