Chapter 20
“Glad I could help.
” A faint smile tugged at Domenic’s lips.
Hearing Lindsey’s explanation, he leaned back in his leather chair and felt pretty good about himself.
“So, what do you want to eat for dinner?”
While walking, Lindsey said, “Anything you want.
It’s my treat.
”
“Really?”
“Yes.
Don’t worry about the cost.
Just choose whatever restaurant you like.
”
Half an hour later, Lindsey arrived at the restaurant Domenic chose, where the latter was already waiting for her at the door.
Today, Domenic was wearing a black shirt and a pair of black trousers today, which added to his cold, mysterious aura.
After exchanging greetings, Domenic opened the door to the restaurant and let Lindsey in first.
As soon as Lindsey stepped foot inside, she was captivated by the restaurant’s interior.
A stunning crystal chandelier cast a dreamlike, colorful glow, and the sound of the saxophone filled the entire establishment with soft music.
The tables and chairs exuded a vintage Italian style, and waiters in tuxedos moved gracefully throughout the space.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Whenever they spotted a guest, they would pause and offer a warm greeting.
Stunned, Lindsey followed Domenic in silently.
They ended up choosing a booth by the window and sat down.
Judging from the restaurant’s ambience, Lindsey knew that the food there must be expensive.
But when she actually glanced at the menu, she couldn’t help but gasp inaudibly.
“Er, Mr.
Walsh, do you really want to eat here?” Lindsey glanced at Domenic uneasily.
Each dish on the menu cost at least a thousand dollars, which was far beyond her budget.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked such an embarrassing question.

“What’s the matter?” Domenic asked, as though he didn’t get the hint.
“Well…” Lindsey touched her nose awkwardly and said in a low, feeble voice, “It’s a little expensive.
”
Glancing at the menu she was holding, Domenic arched his eyebrows and asked, “Didn’t you say I could choose whatever restaurant I wanted?”
Lindsey was helpless.
She had indeed said that.
But she didn’t expect that he’d choose such a high-end one.
Was it because she had bought him a nice suit yesterday that he mistook her for a rich woman who had endless money to burn?
Domenic observed her flustered expression with great interest.
Her face was as red as a tomato.
She gently bit her lower lip as her eyes wandered over the menu.
From time to time, she’d look up at him carefully, trying to judge his mood.
Overall, Domenic found her quite adorable.
Finally, he stopped teasing her and said, “Don’t worry.
I have a coupon here.
We’ll get 90% off the total bill.
”
“Oh my!” Lindsey was even more shocked.
She stared at Domenic, mouth agape.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Domenic was confused.
Lindsey leaned forward and whispered in a low voice, “Mr.
Walsh, tell me the truth.
Are there many rich women who want to, uhm, keep you?”
Otherwise, she couldn’t comprehend how he happened to possess such a high-end restaurant coupon! Not to mention the 90% discount!
Frowning, Domenic massaged his temples helplessly.
Lindsey sensed that she might’ve offended him, so she hurriedly said, “Oh, gosh, I’m sorry.
I didn’t mean to pry.
Please don’t be mad.
I promise I won’t ask again.
