Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 1020: With that thought, Gorman's lips twisted into a bitter smile, his reddened eyes brimming with unspoken grief. He resolved never to return to Grester. When Linsey rejoined Dolores and Dustin, Dolores had just ended her call with Glenda. "Linsey, that was quick," Dolores said, mildly surprised. Barely ten minutes had passed since she and Dustin left the hospital room. Dustin had been on the verge of saying more to Dolores, but Linsey's arrival silenced him. "There wasn't much to discuss," Linsey replied, approaching Dolores.

The two linked arms instinctively and started walking together. Dustin trailed quietly behind. "Gorman told me he's leaving Grester with his parents tomorrow. We won't need to look after him anymore," Linsey said softly after a few steps. Dolores' eyes widened in shock. "What? Gorman's actually leaving?" She stopped short, gently tugging Linsey back, her face etched with disbelief. "He wanted to have a word with you in private just to tell you that?" Linsey nodded, her expression composed. "Yeah, he must have decided this morning.

He has chosen to leave, and I have no reason to stop him." Dolores quickly agreed, "If you tried to convince him to stay, he might misread it as you still having feelings for him." Linsey nodded firmly in agreement. She knew she couldn't afford to get tangled up with Gorman again. Doing so would only cause pain for both of them.

After a brief pause, Dolores added, "It's probably for the best that Gorman's leaving.

Once he's out of town, some time away might help him move on." Staying here would mean Gorman constantly witnessing Linsey and Collin's closeness-a sight even the strongest heart would struggle to endure. "Yeah, that's what I think too," Linsey said, her mind drifting to something else she had just recalled. Recent memories of Gorman's words replayed in Linsey's mind, especially what he had said about Collin quietly squeezing out the Green family in Grester.

With a casual glance toward Dustin, she asked, "Have you heard what Collin's been working on these days?" Dustin blinked, pulled suddenly out of his thoughts, momentarily caught off guard. "What? Collin hasn't done anything out of the ordinary. He's just been tied up with company matters. Why are you asking?" That prompted Linsey to share what she had heard from Gorman. "Back in the day, Gorman was every bit as powerful in Grester as CR Corporation. He always thought of Collin as his greatest rival.

Do you think Collin's finally managed to edge out the Green family for good?" Lines creased Dustin's forehead as he replied, "Collin's never said a word about that to me." . . .
