Chapter 645

 645:
Danny, still puzzled, furrowed his brow and replied, “Even though Linsey is aware of Collin’s deceit, now that she’s confronting him, surely he’ll clarify everything.”
Gorman let out a derisive laugh, his face betraying his certainty. “He might try to explain, but Linsey is beyond listening. The real issue here is Collin’s impulsive tactics; his coercive methods have only fueled her disdain for him.”
With a sarcastic expression, Gorman muttered, “It’s likely Collin panicked after hearing about Linsey’s abduction by Carol. In his haste, he neglected the smarter approach—giving Linsey space to process everything and then carefully explaining the situation.”
Danny nodded in understanding. “Now I get it. Linsey’s disdain for Collin must be solidifying, especially with his recent threats making him appear even less trustworthy.”
Linsey’s growing resentment suggested that no matter Collin’s reasoning, changing her mind might now be impossible.
Danny, reflecting deeper, admired Gorman’s strategic thinking. “That’s why you allowed Linsey to go ahead. Any attempt to stop her could have just upset her more, given her emotional state.”
“I might as well thank Collin for this chance to appear empathetic and supportive in Linsey’s eyes,” Gorman said with a slow, knowing chuckle.
His gaze then shifted toward the Lawson family’s estate as he anticipated the intensifying drama within.
The silence was noticeable as Linsey entered the Lawson family’s estate.
It wasn’t until she reached the living room that she encountered several people.
Linsey immediately noticed Collin seated on the couch.
Their eyes met simultaneously.
Collin stood abruptly, his intense gaze locked on Linsey. He walked toward her determinedly.

In moments, Collin nearly closed the distance between them. Linsey, feeling a rush of discomfort, instinctively retreated a few steps.
Her retreat made Collin pause, his previously hopeful expression now marked by uncertainty.
“Linsey…” Collin’s voice trailed as his hands slowly curled into fists. His eyes never left her face.
Suddenly, he noticed the bandages on her right hand, his eyes registering shock. Reaching out instinctively, Collin murmured, “Your hand…”
With a frosty demeanor, Linsey quickly withdrew her hand behind her back, clearly indicating she didn’t want Collin’s touch.
Collin’s movement was suddenly stopped once more. He now understood that Linsey’s anger stemmed from his hidden identity, yet he realized there was still more to uncover about her deep-seated feelings.
Linsey deliberately avoided meeting Collin’s eyes, instead letting her gaze roam the living room in search of Myla.
“Didn’t you promise you’d let Myla go once I arrived? Where is she?” Collin stared at her without blinking.
