Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

He had his people keep a tight watch on Lindsey, making note of her every interaction and conversation throughout the evening.

To humiliate Carole at the engagement party was just a small punishment, a nudge to remind her to keep things straight.

It didn’t matter what she knew or her reasons, the fact that she had saved his life once didn’t mean she could act without thinking.

Domenic had no patience for women who thought too highly of their own wit, clearly stating that saving his life once didn’t mean she could do whatever she wanted without consequences.

Arturo, completely surprised by how well Domenic had everything planned and how quickly he took action, shook his head in amazement.

“What are you planning to do next? After you’ve dealt with your grandpa, are you really going to let your uncles take over the Walsh family’s fortune?”

“That’s definitely not in my plans.

”

Domenic twirled his glass of red wine as he spoke with purpose.

“Skipping out on my engagement party was just one aspect of my trip to Mubluosia.

The other was to closely monitor our international projects.

The groundwork I’ve laid, after extensive preparation, is on the verge of yielding significant results.

Once my uncles face bankruptcy, I’ll seize their assets and gain control of at least 50% of the Walsh Group’s shares.

”

Right from the beginning, he had anticipated every possibility.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Having reigned supreme in the business realm for so long with his strategic brilliance, it was improbable that he would allow anyone to outmaneuver him.

Arturo was fully convinced and finally comprehended why he could never measure up to Domenic.

With Domenic’s astuteness and relentlessness in both strategizing and carrying out plans, he surpassed Arturo by leaps and bounds in terms of meticulousness and determination.

He was like a cheetah, ever poised to strike at his prey and relentless until the capture was assured.

Arturo trembled at the notion, grateful he had aligned himself with Domenic rather than challenged him.

Otherwise, he couldn’t imagine the extent of his defeat.

Domenic leaned over the back of sofa, his eyes partially shut as he made a deliberate declaration.

“Once we’ve sorted everything out, I’ll entrust you with managing 20% of our international market.

”

This pledge was his commitment to Arturo.

Arturo, relaxed with one leg casually crossed over the other, appeared pleased and said, “Thank you.

I truly appreciate it.

”

“Speaking of which, Lindsey mentioned that Selah’s divorce is finalized, and she’s officially single now.

You might want to act swiftly before someone else beat you to it,” Domenic remarked, raising an eyebrow at Arturo.

“Domenic, when did you become so invested in my romantic affairs?”

Arturo teased, though inwardly he could barely contain his excitement.

With the 20% market share promised by Domenic, he would wield considerable influence within his family.

He envisioned proudly introducing Selah and her child to his family, ensuring they would never again endure hardship.

Following the banquet, Jordan made his way back home.

Carole had spent the afternoon regaining control over her emotions.

In sync with Jordan’s arrival, she brewed his favorite tea and whipped up some sugar-free treats.

Upon his entry, she had the living room meticulously arranged and assisted him in changing out of his formal attire into something more relaxing.

Currently, Jordan was the sole advocate for Carole and Domenic’s relationship.

He possessed the influence necessary to sway Domenic’s opinion.

Carole’s adeptness at gauging the atmosphere and these subtle acts of accommodation were precisely what could win Jordan’s favor.

“Mr.

Walsh, please sample these cookies.

Given the doctor’s concern about your elevated blood sugar, I prepared them without sugar.

Do inform me if they meet your palate, especially when paired with this tea.
