NovelEnglishChapter 638 "It's not 'just this'," Domenic replied, serious and earnest.
"I'm supposed to be your protector.
When danger struck, even Sumner ran in to help you, but I didn't.
Does that not makeunworthy? How can I claim to be your man?" His words struck a chord in Lindsey, her expression turning solemn. "That's exactly why you are the right man for me.
"What do you mean?" Domenic was puzzled.
Lindsey smiled as she said, "A man should keep his cool and think things through, not just react without thinking. That's why waiting for help was the smart move.
I'm grateful for Sumner's willingness to help, but I don't agree with how he did it.
We were lucky to get out of that situation, but what if we hadn't? I'm still pretty shaken up about it.
My mom would wantto be safe and sound.
if I had died in that fire, she'd never find peace, even in death.
I've already been too rash about this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf you were as reckless as me, I'd think we're not right for each other.
Sure, we can throw caution to the wind for love, but what about our family? And if we have kids, should we risk our lives together? Someone has to stay behind and be responsible.
That's what a grown-up does.
" Domenic looked stunned, his eyes showing a touch of surprise.
He thought about his own life.
If his dad hadn't been so hasty, if he had been more thoughtful and responsible, maybe his grandpa's attitude would have been different.
And he wouldn't have been mistreated by his uncles, and his life wouldn't have been so tough and guarded. His father's impulsive choice had altered the course of his entire life.
Domenic gazed at Lindsey with a newfound appreciation.
Every word she spoke resonated deeply within his heart, touching its most tender part.
He had feared her disappointment, but she proved to be more understanding and thoughtful than he had imagined.
Her words even brought him scomfort regarding his father's past decisions.
Reaching out, Domenic wrapped Lindsey in a warm embrace, pressing his head against her soft hair.
In a gentle whisper, he confessed, "Linds, I love you.
You're the only one for me.
Lindsey responded by embracing him tighter, simply saying, too.
Looking down thoughtfully, Lindsey added, "So... please forgive my suddenness, okay?" Holding her even closer, Domenic assured her, "It's not your fault.
Lindsey shook her head, resting it against his shoulder.
"Remember, those who have passed would want their loved ones to live a happy life.
Don't dwell in sorrow, but cherish their memory and live a happy life.
Domenic nodded in agreement.
"So, Linds, it's tfor you to move forward.
I'm sure your mom will caround.
She wouldn't want to see you down.
"She's my mother.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI'll take care of her," Lindsey replied, not giving a clear answer.
At that moment, Domenic didn't overthink it.
He believed Lindsey was gradually healing from her grief over Juanita.
But he was unaware that Lindsey had already made a firm decision.
Following that day, Lindsey informed Domenic of her wish to temporarily el return and stay with her father.
Domenic looked puzzled and asked, "Why do you suddenly want toga back? Didn't things go bad between n you and them?"
Lindsey responded casually, "After what happened to my mom, realized there's no problem that can't be solved. My dad's the only parent I have left.
I want to spend more twith him.
Who knows what might happen tomorrow or if there will even be a tomorrow.
I don't want any regrets.
" Domenic nodded in understanding.
Benny was her father, after all, and family ties often run deep.
Maybe making amends was the right thing to do.
