Jacobs undertone was obvious: Lindsey was only an agent in the entertainment industry, while he, the vice president of Ray Films, held some clout in the field.
Lindsey was well aware of what needed to be done. She flashed a smile and replied, If Mr. Perry asks, Ill consider it a favor. But Mr. Perry, Id appreciate it if you could look out for your girlfriend and discourage her from causing any more problems for me.

With that, Lindsey and Domenic headed into the arena, leaving Shelia and Jacob behind without a backward glance.
Jacobs expression turned icy. He turned to Shelia, discontented.

Lindsey glanced at the clock. Youre right. With that, she dashed off towards the area for post-game preparation.
Glancing back at Dominic, she called out, Mr. Walsh, when Im done, Ill be looking for you in the stands!
