Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right

Lindsey scanned the diamond ring with her eyes over and over again.

It was perfect in every way she wanted, but she chose to remove it and place it back in its box.

She let out a deep breath and said, “In that case, that can only mean that it’s destined that I won’t have it.

Besides, taking into account just how hardworking my boyfriend is, I have no desire to dump more pressure on him.

”

Hearing this, Carole tried hard to suppress her laughter.

Why on earth would Lindsey think that such a purchase would affect Domenic?

His bank account wouldn’t even feel a pinch if his girlfriend bought this two-carat diamond ring.

In fact, what Domenic earned in a single day was more than enough to buy dozens of such diamond rings.

Carole wanted to point this out to Lindsey, but she simply chuckled and said nothing.

After spending some more time browsing the store, Carole couldn’t find any ring that suited her taste, so she left with Lindsey.

As they exited the store, Carole, with a soft voice, apologized to Lindsey, “I’m so sorry for not making a purchase, Lindsey.

I just wasted your entire afternoon.

”

Lindsey shook her head and waved her hand.

She couldn’t help but smile at Carole, whose intelligence and good manners were higher than that of anyone she had ever met.

After today, Lindsey’s appreciation for Carole got a significant boost.

“Not at all.

If anything, I love that we were able to relax and talk.

Besides, your engagement party is still some days away, so there’s enough time for you to go through numerous rings.

Remember, this is a once-in-a-lifetime choice, you should settle for nothing but what you feel is the best,” Lindsey said.

“Your words mean a lot to me, Lindsey.

So what about next time? Would you still be willing to accompany me?” Carole asked.

“Of course,” Lindsey replied at once.

After these two interactions, Lindsey’s view of Carole was totally on the positive side.

“Wow, thank you so much, Lindsey.

I appreciate it,” Carole said affectionately.

She linked her arm with Lindsey’s and continued, “From the moment I met you, I’ve known that you would be nothing short of an exceptional and wonderful individual.

It’s so nice to be friends with you.

Lest I forget, ensure that you come to my engagement party, okay? I’ve prepared a wonderful surprise for you.

”

Lindsey smiled and replied, “Of course, I’ll be there.

And now that you’ve mentioned it.

I’ll make sure to be there early.

But why would you choose to surprise me at your engagement party? Wouldn’t it distract you from other things that will require your attention on that day? Can you give me a hint on what the surprise is about?”

Carole shook her and said, “Sorry I can’t.

It has to remain a secret for now.

All I can tell you is that you should keep your expectations high.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

”

Lindsey chuckled and decided not to press for more details.

“Alright then, that’s settled.

I’m pretty sure that you’re tired and hungry.

How about I treat you to a meal? But you are going to choose the restaurant, okay? I haven’t explored this area that much,” Carole said.

Lindsey gave her watch a glance and saw that it was getting late.

Though she was tired, hungry, and done with her work for the day, she reasoned that leaving all of the tasks back at the office for Nancy to do wouldn’t be nice, so she politely declined Carole’s suggestion.

Carole simply expressed her hope that they would be able to have dinner together at another time.

At that moment, the taxi that Lindsey had ordered arrived.

As Lindsey got into the taxi, she exchanged a few more polite words with Carole, who reminded her to be present at her engagement party.

Though Lindsey found it a bit strange that Carole was so peculiar about it, Lindsey assured her that she wouldn’t miss it, even if she had something important to do on that day.

As the taxi drove away with Lindsey, Carole stared at it, with her red lips slightly curled.

Lindsey mustn’t miss the engagement party and by extension, the gift that she had painstakingly prepared for her.

Just as the taxi she was in drove past her company’s entrance, Lindsey, through the car window, saw a familiar figure, which seemed to be Xiomara, near the entrance.
