NovelAppChapter 962 Hendrix knew more than anyone about Domenic's love for Lindsey.
He saw the growing distance between them and felt compelled to defend his boss.
Lindsey stayed quiet.
Noticing Lindsey's unchanging expression, Hendrix blurted out, “The problems you and your company faced were all resolved by my boss.
Without him, you..." Lindsey stopped abruptly and turned to face Hendrix, her Lips curling with a touch of coldness.
"Even if he did help me, that does not change the fact that he lied.

Why did he choose deceit and lies as the foundation of their relationship? She longed for his transparency and truthfulness, yet he never considered giving that to her.
Each promise he made now proved false, and each gesture of sincerity was just an act to comfort her. This was a kind of arrogance unique to those in power.
