Chapter 782
“I think it’s best to keep the engagement party as discreet as possible and hold off on notifying the media for now.
”
After taking a moment to contemplate, Jordan concurred with Domenic’s suggestion and glanced sympathetically at Carole.
“Apologies for any inconvenience, Carole.
”
Carole shook her head, displaying understanding.
“Never mind.
I’m fortunate to be marrying a man as wonderful as Domenic.
”
Jordan’s face lit up with a smile as he reassured her, “Don’t worry, my dear, this engagement will have to be like this now.
But when it’s time for the wedding, I will oversee everything and ensure you have a magnificent ceremony.
”
Carole forced a smile for Jordan, yet inside, she felt a profound sense of emptiness.
She knew that Domenic had never seriously considered marrying her.
Lindnita Artists Agency experienced its busiest month since its opening.
Job offers for Sumner, Xiomara, and Selah inundated the agency.
From early morning, Lindsey and Nancy toiled tirelessly, working non-stop until 2 o’clock in the afternoon.
New emails kept flooding in, and Lindsey’s phone rang off the hook, nearly in a perpetual busy tone.
Lindsey and Nancy exchanged a weary glance, finally grasping the gratification of being flat out.
Selah possessed a keen sense of self-assessment.
Invitations for various variety shows and movie collaborations, deemed suitable by Lindsey, were forwarded directly to her for personal consideration.
As for Xiomara, despite enticing offers for lead roles in web dramas and supporting roles in some new movies, Lindsey declined them all after thorough deliberation.
Recognizing Xiomara’s recent debut and needing to hone her acting skills, Lindsey prioritized careful progression over hasty success, which could be counterproductive.
Xiomara grasped Lindsey’s intentions and dutifully complied with her guidance.
She devoted herself to preparing for the upcoming competition, quietly perfecting her acting skills, and regularly seeking counsel from Selah.
Sumner was even more sought after than the others.
The majority of the unread emails were related to him.
Numerous record companies and advertising agencies reached out, extending offers.
At the same time, film and television companies also made contact, expressing keen interest in involving Sumner in their projects.
Nancy rubbed her temples, feeling the throbbing pain, and moved her chair next to Lindsey.
Her voice sounded worn out as she asked, “How many more do you have left?”

Equally exhausted, Lindsey glanced at the persistent red dots on her screen and sighed deeply.
Finally, after dealing with the essential matters, the two retreated to a shopping mall.
They shut off the social media app and took the rest of the day off.
Lindsey dragged Nancy to the men’s clothing section on the second floor.
“The weather’s getting colder, and my boyfriend seems short on warm clothes.
You’ve got good taste.
Help me pick out a few things for him.
”
Nancy, tugged along, rolled her eyes and said, “Okay, okay, can we not rub it in for us single people? Just got out of work and now I have to deal with all this mushy stuff.
Really?”
Despite her complaints, she went ahead and started choosing clothes for Domenic.
Lindsey, knowing Nancy was all bark but no bite, simply smiled and kept quiet.
Then, her phone buzzed with a new message on her private phone number.
Thinking it might be Domenic, she quickly checked her phone.
But the name on the screen made Lindsey frown.
It was Carole.
Carole’s message was brief.
“Lindsey, my engagement party is next Tuesday.
You’re invited.
”
Lindsey felt a hint of surprise.
Carole was getting married? She wondered who could be a match for such a remarkable woman.
Though puzzled by the invitation since their paths had crossed just once, Lindsey felt compelled to go and typed out a heartfelt reply to congratulate her and confirm her presence.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
