Chapter 394

 394:
Wasn’t Gorman dying to get his hands on Linsey?
Fernanda herself had delivered Linsey, drugged and vulnerable, straight into Gorman’s hands.
Any man, driven by base desires, would have seized the opportunity.
How could his plans have crumbled?
“Mr. Green?” Collin’s voice was low, dangerous. “Which Mr. Green are you referring to?”
Fernanda’s laugh was cold, scornful. “Who else but Gorman Green?”
A shadow fell over Collin’s features, his brow furrowing in a stormy frown.
The night’s twisted events were indeed tracing back to Gorman. A troubling thought crossed his mind—did Gorman know that he was the elusive founder of CR Corporation?
Unperturbed by Collin’s mounting anger, Fernanda taunted him further. “Collin, don’t fool yourself into thinking it’s all good because you saved Linsey today. Gorman isn’t playing around—he wants her, and he’s not afraid to do whatever it takes to get her. And with the Green family’s clout in town, Linsey doesn’t stand a chance of getting away.”
Fernanda paused, then sneered at Collin, eyeing his perfectly healthy legs with scorn.
“You think just because you’re not a cripple you can outmaneuver Gorman? Capturing me changes nothing. Just wait until Gorman steals Linsey from you!”
Her laughter echoed wildly around them.
Collin’s expression hardened as he tightened his hold on Linsey. He turned to his assistant and instructed, “Escort her back for an intensive interrogation.”
Don’t miss it: gᴀlиovєℓѕ.cоm
“Understood,” the assistant responded, nodding respectfully. At the assistant’s gesture, the bodyguards hastened to lift Fernanda, preparing to take her out.
Interrogation?
Fear surged through Fernanda as she cried out, “Collin! How can you treat me like this? I’m your stepmother! How can you treat me this way? Won’t your father have something to say about this? And don’t forget Ivy—she won’t take kindly to this either!”
Collin had once endured Fernanda and Huntley’s antics for the sake of family peace. Their petty tricks and constant insults had been ignored.
However, their persistent targeting of Linsey was too much for him to bear.
They had blatantly violated his ultimate limit.
Thus, Collin’s patience had worn thin.
“Consider how you’ll justify tonight’s events,” Collin said in a frosty tone. With a discreet nod, he signaled his assistant to remove Fernanda at once.
Later, at a private hospital, Dominic burst through the doors, agitated by the unfolding events.
His expression turned cold when he saw Collin approaching with Linsey in his arms.
“Have you lost your senses?” Dominic eyed Collin’s legs. “Isn’t it risky for you to wander around so openly?”
While Dominic was gripped by panic, Collin’s attention was solely on Linsey, cradled unconscious in his arms.
“Gorman has started targeting Linsey,” Collin said, his expression dark. As he mentioned Gorman, a surge of anger clouded his face.
