Chapter 819

 819:
With this realization, a pang of frustration touched Gorman’s heart. Despite this, he couldn’t just give up, especially since Linsey had yet to reconcile with Collin.
Gorman knew he needed to remain in Grester, utilizing Zenia and Zander as part of his strategy to win Linsey’s heart eventually.
For Linsey, Gorman had the patience to wait as long as necessary.
With a chuckle, Gorman said, “Before arriving here, my father and I had a significant conversation. He’s tasked me with expanding Green Group’s operations in Grester, which means I’ll be staying here for an extended period.”
Linsey expressed surprise, not having anticipated such a directive from Gorman’s father, Marco Green.
Indeed, after four years, CR Corporation had captured over half of Grester’s market, making any new gains for Green Group challenging. However, decisions within the Green family were not hers to influence, as she was an outsider to their internal affairs.
“Understood,” Linsey responded with a nod.
Something then seemed to strike Gorman, prompting him to suggest with a raised eyebrow, “Linsey, with the kids in tow, you must be considering a new living arrangement, right? Why don’t you…”
Before Gorman could continue, Linsey calmly interjected, “Caylee and I have discussed this. We’re planning to start looking for a place to rent in the coming days.”
While Linsey suspected Gorman might have been about to offer his own place, she clearly stated her intentions to forestall any such offer, preferring not to deepen his involvement in her life.

It was crucial for her to maintain clarity and set boundaries, to avoid any misinterpretations that might lead her to repeat past mistakes. She had come to recognize that too much involvement from Gorman in her life posed potential risks.
“That’s good to hear,” Gorman responded softly, his expression untroubled.
Linsey breathed a quiet sigh of relief at this, pondering if she might have been overanalyzing the situation, convinced that Gorman wouldn’t persist in pursuing her. After all, she didn’t view herself as someone so compelling as to warrant his undivided attention for years.
She was sure Gorman had moved on by now.
At that moment, a noise came from the door.
Caylee, appearing somewhat sleepy, emerged from the guest bedroom. Yet, upon noticing Gorman, she instantly snapped to alertness. Her posture stiffened, and her hands, previously relaxed at her sides, now clenched tightly. She addressed him, “Mr. Green.”
Gorman acknowledged her with a brief nod, offering no further words. Caylee quickly turned to Linsey. “Linsey, the children might be waking up soon. I’ll go check on them.”
