Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

“Oh, Domenic…”

Hearing Carole’s voice, Jordan opened his eyes and frowned.

“I thought you’d totally forgotten about us and decided to focus on that woman.

So what brings you here so late?” he asked in an unpleasant tone.

He had still not gotten over what had occurred on the cruise ship.

Nevertheless, he allowed Domenic a chance to explain himself.

With a cold look on his face, Domenic walked over to a sofa opposite Jordan and sat down on it.

“I have two things to tell you,” he said in a formal tone as if the person sitting opposite him was not his grandfather but a business partner he was negotiating with.

“Just say what you have to say,” Jordan said impatiently.

Sensing how tense the atmosphere was, Carole tactfully interjected, “Let me leave you and Domenic to have your discussion.

”

Jordan nodded in agreement.

But Domenic felt differently.

“No need to leave,” he said to her.

“There’s nothing I’m going to say that you can’t hear.

”

Carole was taken back and then turned to look at Jordan.

Jordan had no idea what Domenic was thinking, so he didn’t say anything.

He just stared back at him too.

Carole, on her part, quietly sat down on a sofa.

“The first thing I want to talk about concerns me and Lindsey,”

Domenic began.

“I will no longer have any relationship with her.

So, please leave her alone.

”

Both Carole’s and Jordan’s eyes brightened the moment they heard this.

Nevertheless, they were surprised by his sudden decision.

“Have you really thought this through?” Jordan asked warily.

“Are you done with her for real?”

“You’ve got plenty of informants watching me.

You would know if I was lying,” Domenic replied bluntly.

This response made Jordan feel a little embarrassed.

“Franklin said that the girls around me who had disappeared were sent by you to other cities,” Domenic went on in a cold tone.

“I’m sure you know better than I do what happened to them.

I don’t want to dig too deeply into this issue because I still have some respect for you.

For so many years, I’ve never confronted you about the matter of my mother’s ashes being scattered.

You are the person I respect most in the family.

I really don’t want to hate you.

”

Jordan stared at him in perplexity.

What was his grandson trying to imply? Was Domenic saying that he would hate him if he dared to hurt Lindsey? Did Domenic know that what happened the previous night was his handiwork?

Jordan would never forget how Domenic had looked at him – so cold and gloomy.

He had never been afraid of anyone in his life, but when Domenic gave him that stare, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of fear.

Domenic was very much Like him, so he knew fully well that trying to force Domenic to do his bidding would ultimately fail.

Recently, Walsh Group had suffered huge losses.

Jordan didn’t want the situation to get any worse.

Since Domenic was the most promising future leader of the company, he would do nothing against him as long as Domenic was willing to be obedient.

As for Lindsey, unless Domenic truly and fully let her go, Jordan would not be able to promise that he would leave her alone.
