Chapter 16 The shop manager looked in the direction she was pointing, and then his smile grew wider.
"You have excellent taste.
That piece is part of our latest collection, and it costs $560,000.
"What the-?! So expensive?!" Lindsey already knew that it'd cost a lot, but she didn't expect it'd cost that much! Catching herself, she felt a little embarrassed and offered feebly, "How about I pick something else?" "Why? Just take that one.
I think it looks nice.
What do you think, sir?" Suddenly, Domenic turned to look at the respectful shop manager.
The manager instantly broke into cold sweat.
He hurriedly reassured Lindsey, "Of course you can take it! You won the grand prize!" In this way, Lindsey and Domenic walked out of the mall with several shopping bags in their hands.

Thinking of the lucky thing that had befallen her previously, Lindsey couldn't help but smile and looked up at Domenic with admiration.
"Mr.
Walsh, I don't know why, but I feel that my luck changed for the better after meeting you.
" After a short pause, Domenic stopped in his tracks and looked down at the woman next to him.
As soon as their eyes met, his heart inadvertently skipped a beat.
His eyes appeared especially deep and gentle in the setting sun, and his typically stern countenance seemed to be softened.
"May I interpret this as a subtle hint that you want to be with me?" His dark eyes were as beautiful and mysterious as obsidian, and his words made Lindsey blush.
She lowered her head and tucked a strand of hair behind one ear awkwardly, but this only made Domenic notice that even her ear had turned bright red.
The simple gesture reminded him of the day Lindsey wrapped her arms around his neck in the dark hotel room. That night, as her faint floral fragrance filled his nose, she had asked him in a small voice if he was handsome. She was so active at that tand had taken the initiative to ki*s him, so why was she so shy now? Suddenly, Lindsey chuckled.
"Since you're so confident that I want to be with you, can I invite you to dinner tonight?" Before Domenic could answer, his phone rang and interrupted their banter.
"Sorry, I have to take this.
Domenic walked out of ear shot and picked up the phone.
"Hello, Mr.
Walsh, the video conference is about to begin.
" "Got it.
After hanging up, Domenic cback to Lindsey with an apologetic look.
"Sorry, something cup.

Take a rain check.
Just do what you need to do.
Domenic nodded.
After saying their goodbyes, he walked into the crowd.
Somehow, Lindsey felt a little disappointed, but she quickly m adjusted her mood and walked in the opposite direction.
It wasn't until she completely disappeared from his sight thatm Domenic called Hendrix to pick him E up. As soon as Domenic got into the car, Hendrix said to him proudly, "Boss, you should be proud of me.
When the owner of the mall found out that you were here, he insisted on coming in person.
Fortunately, I managed to stop him in tand asked him not to make a fuss.
" "Good job.
"While operating his laptop, Domenic replied indifferently. The paper for the lottery was too rough. Pay attention to the details next time.
