Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

Now that the farce had ended, the guests had no interest in staying any longer.

One by one, they said goodbye to Benny and left.

Lindsey watched as her father walked away with Kendra, a sense of indescribable sadness and disappointment surging in her heart.

All of a sudden, despite her small victory, she felt deflated and didn’t have the energy to stay.

She was headed for the exit when she suddenly tripped on something and fell forward.

Fortunately, Domenic was quick on his feet and managed to catch her in time.

Lindsey looked up and spotted Mary, sitting in her chair with a smug expression, her leg extended.

“Lindsey, why don’t you watch where you’re going? Just look at the mess you’ve made! You’ve ruined my shoes.

”

Lindsey was already in a foul mood.

Provoked by Mary, she lost her temper and yelled, “You tripped me on purpose.

Apologize to me this instant!”

Mary crossed her arms over her chest and spat defiantly, “Me?

Apologize? Dream on! You’re the one who tripped over my shoe because you weren’t paying attention.

You owe me an apology!”

“I saw you trip her.

” A deep voice interjected into their conversation.

Domenic pulled Lindsey close and glared at Mary sharply.

“Apologize to her right now.

”

“Why should I? She’s the one who-“

Before Mary could finish her sentence, Samuel suddenly stood up and slapped her right in the face.

Stunned and in pain, she burst into tears.

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, he shouted, “Apologize to Miss Stewart now!”

Mary was shocked.

Samuel had always doted on her.

She didn’t know why he was so angry all of a sudden, but she didn’t dare to disobey him.

Cupping her red, swollen cheek, she reluctantly muttered to Lindsey, “I’m sorry.

”

“Sir, I’m so sorry that my partner offended your fiancée.

” Samuel bowed his head to Domenic with respect.

When Domenic first showed up, Samuel was a little uncertain about who this young man was.

But when he saw Domenic’s face up close, he instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Samuel had crossed paths with this influential figure at a prestigious auction in the past.

Domenic’s remarkable appearance and extraordinary demeanor had left an indelible mark on him, and he would never forget the man’s face.

But he couldn’t help but wonder why a big shot like Domenic would show up here and be involved with a woman who was far below his social status.

Samuel was perplexed.

Locking eyes with him, Domenic said meaningfully, “You just need to apologize to my fiancée, not me.

I’m just an ordinary person, and you don’t have to bow to me.

”

Samuel immediately got the hint and nodded profusely.

As he watched Domenic and Lindsey leave, he figured it’d be best if he kept his mouth shut about the whole thing.

Mary, however, wasn’t reconciled.

She pouted and whined, “Mr.

Navarro, why’d you ask me to apologize to that bitch?”

“Shut the f@ck up!” Samuel’s tone was so fierce that Mary turned pale with fright.

“If you dare to provoke them again, I’ll dump you!”

By now, night had fallen, and the sky was dark with heavy clouds.
