“Who is this guy, Linds?” Sh rose from her seat.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    The man in front of them emanated amanding presence, unmistakably marked by his high status.


    Lindsey moved closer to Domenic, gently linking her arm with his and resting her head against his shoulder.


    “Everyone, meet my boyfriend, Domenic.


    ”


    Nics and Mercer both took another sharp breath, clearly shocked!


    Nics shot Mercer a puzzled look, as if silently questioning what was happening.


    Mercer just shrugged and gave a nonchnt eye roll, as if to say, “I have no idea.


    ”


    “So, you’re Linds’s boyfriend.


    Pleased to meet you,” Sh greeted warmly before teasingly turning to Lindsey.


    “I see why you were so quick to clear up those rumors.


    You didn’t want your handsome boyfriend to get any wrong ideas.


    Linds, you’ve really been keeping him a secret.


    ”


    Lindsey offered a yful wink as she introduced Domenic to everyone else.


    She had anticipated Domenic might be a bit overwhelmed meeting such prominent stars.


    However, Domenic just listened calmly to the introductions, offering a slight, polite smile.


    “Pleasure to meet all of you.


    ”


    “We’ve known each other for so long, yet here we are, acting Like strangers,” Mercer murmured softly.


    “What was that, Mercer?” Sh, catching his whisper, quickly questioned him.


    Mercer looked taken aback and quickly waved his hand.


    “Oh, it’s nothing.


    Just talking to myself, don’t worry about it.


    ”


    Once Lindsey found a seat for Domenic, she sat beside him.


    The mood in the private room shifted, turning somewhat awkward.


    Nancy, hoping to lighten the mood, chimed in, “Since we’re all here, why don’t we y a game? How about truth or dare?”


    Just as Nancy finished her suggestion, the door to the private room swung open again.


    Hadn’t Lindsey mentioned they were only expecting one more? Was there someone else who hadn’t arrived yet?


    Amidst everyone’s puzzled looks, a woman, her identity concealed behindrge sunsses, entered.


    She shut the door, removed her sunsses, and revealed a strikingly beautiful face.


    It was Kristy.


    With a slight smile on her lips, Kristy surveyed the room and asked in a soft voice, “Seems like a fun night.


    Why wasn’t I invited?”


    “Miss Chase, how did you find out we were here?” Lindsey rose from her seat, her expression a mix of surprise and concern as she faced Kristy.


    Kristy took off her coat, showcasing a striking red dress.


    She casually found an empty spot and sat down.


    “I overheard about it.


    Lindsey, you really should have told me about yourpany’s grand opening.


    If I had known, I wouldn’t have scheduled my fan meeting on the same day.


    ”


    As she crossed her legs, the room’s attention seemed to be drawn to her.


    Positioned directly across from Domenic, her long, sleek legs were particrly captivating.


    Kristy’s gaze lingered on Domenic, reclining on the sofa.


    His ck shirt stood out in the dim light, with one button casually undone at the cor.


    His waist was entuated by a ck belt.


    Kristy felt a blush creep onto her cheeks.


    However, what irked Kristy was that Domenic’s eyes were fixed on Lindsey with evident affection, seemingly oblivious to her presence.
