NovelXXXDomenic didn't respond and continued straight to the dining room.
Something felt off.
Rupert's instincts were telling him that Domenic was hiding something.
He turned to watch Domenic's retreating figure, a smile forming on his face.
After the dinner with Jordan, Domenic excused himself early, citing work commitments.
By ten in the evening, Lindsey had already dozed off in bed.
Half-asleep, she sensed a rustling beside her, followed by a Large hand encircling her waist. Startled awake, she instinctively threw an elbow strike behind her! But her elbow hit nothing.
Instead, it was caught, and she found herself pulled into a strong, comforting embrace.

"A deep, slightly raspy voice broke the silence of the dark room.
"Why didn't you letknow you were here?" Lindsey's cheeks turned a shade of red.
She had mistakenly thought an intruder had entered and nearly harmed Domenic.
"I didn't want to disturb your sleep.
" Domenic wrapped his arms around her from behind, planting a ki*s on her neck.
Her scent brought him a se nse of calm.
Lindsey inhaled the mixed scents of cedar and cigarette from Domenic.
She turned around to face him, her arms reaching to embrace him, her nose brushing against him.
"You are acting like a puppy.
Why are you sniffing me?" Domenic gazed at her with tenderness.
"I'm going to check if you've got the perfof another woman on you!" Domenic chuckled and said, "So, did you smell anything?" "I can smell..." Lindsey lifted her head to look at Domenic's amused expression.
"You've been smoking quite a bit.
Are things bothering you?" Domenic's gaze grew serious, yet his demeanor softened.

" Lindsey looked surprised and asked, "Did they give you a hard time?" "No, they just made sannoying remarks.
"Domenic nestled his face in Lindsey's neck, his usually meat hair now tousled across his forehead. It was with Lindsey that Domenic could truly relax.
As a prominent CEO, he rarely showed his sorrowful or vulnerable side to anyone.
He was known for being powerful and composed, a man in control of everything.
With Lindsey, he wasn't the unreachable king anymore he was just a regular guy with feelings and ΕΠ wants. He could fully enjoy life and find comfort in his loved one's arms when feeling down.
What a happy life.
Yet tonight, Domenic was filled with restlessness, uncertain about how vel long this happiness would last. He wasn't in a position to discuss his family affairs with Lindsey or introduce her to his grandpa.
It felt like an enormous gap lay between them.
