Chapter 158
As Domenic steered the horse towards Lindsey, their gazes met, and in a flurry, he nudged the woman away and dismounted.
The woman, jolted to alertness, clutched at the reins to steady herself.
Lindsey’s gaze locked onto the woman, recognizing her as Kristy.
Confusion swirled in her mind.
What was Kristy doing here, and why was she so intimate with Domenic?
A twinge of jealousy pricked at her.
Domenic approached Lindsey, his words ready, but Kristy’s soft tone cut through.
“Sir, I owe you my thanks.
May I know your name to express my gratitude later?”
Domenic, facing her, met her challenging stare with a glacial look.
“No need,” he dismissed her curtly before looping an arm around Lindsey, his demeanor instantly warming.
“Let’s continue our practice,” he suggested, leading Lindsey away with a smile so starkly different from the coldness he’d shown moments before.
Kristy was the top actress in the film world.
Everywhere she went, men would turn their heads, yet the man before her not only rescued her but also possessed a striking appearance.
He rivaled, if not surpassed, the best actor, Nicolas, in looks.
For the first time, Kristy felt an attraction stirring within her.
Yet his cool, detached demeanor left her feeling overlooked, a sensation that was both new and vexing to her.
“Please wait!” she called out, halting Lindsey and Domenic in their tracks.
After dismounting from the horse, Kristy hurried over to them.
As she neared Domenic, she found his features seemed even more alluring.
His eyes were sharp and profound.
His stature was on par with a top-tier model.
She marveled at his perfection, her heart racing despite being accustomed to handsome co-stars.
Turning her attention to Lindsey, she inquired with a gentle smile, “You’re Lindsey Stewart, aren’t you?”
Lindsey appeared surprised, not anticipating Kristy’s recognition.
She nodded.
“You know me, Miss Chase?”
“Absolutely,” Kristy responded, stealing a glance at Domenic and allowing her smile to grow.
“I work with Vitality Entertainment too, so your name has come up.
Rumors at the company suggest you climbed the ranks by favoritism with Mr.
Howard.
However, I don’t believe that’s your style, is it? Still, it’s quite the talk of the town how quickly a newcomer like you became an executive agent.
”
Kristy had a charm about her, and her voice was a pleasure to listen to.
Even her sarcastic remarks came
with a gentle smile.
Lindsey returned the smile, her gaze fixed on Kristy’s eyes.
“You know, there’s a saying about not sweating the small stuff when you’re hiring.
Mr.
Howard saw something in me, so he gave me a chance.
People at the office can’t seem to understand Mr.
Howard’s vision.
They come up with all sorts of nasty theories about the boss’s decisions.
But as the shining star of our company, I’d think you’d see things more clearly than most, in terms of both vision and thought.
Wouldn’t you agree, Miss Chase?”
Kristy paused, caught off guard by Lindsey’s bold retort.noveldrama
With a soft smile, she replied, “Sure, I’m not like the rest.
I do believe in your potential, but I’ve yet to witness it.
”
Lindsey was neither modest nor arrogant.
“Patience is a virtue.
