Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right by PASSION

Chapter 872

Though Lindsey acknowledged the reality, she couldn’t help feeling a twinge of disappointment.

She lowered her head and stepped further into the room.

As she moved forward, the bathroom door suddenly swung open.

A large hand emerged from the darkness, grabbed Lindsey, and pulled her inside.

Lindsey let out a scream, toppling backward and losing her balance.

Her mind raced with questions.

Her thoughts whirled as she struggled against the grip, but the man’s strength was overwhelming, pinning her to the bathroom wall.

Then, the lights flicked on, flooding the room with brightness.

Lindsey squinted against the sudden glare, only to find Domenic standing before her.

“Oh, it’s you…” Lindsey’s relief was palpable, but she couldn’t hide her reproach.

“You scared me half to death.

Domenic didn’t respond, his expression unreadable.
