Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 1218: Felix had always known Linsey as patient, gentle, and endlessly forgiving, never the type to lose her cool. But now, his eyes blazed with outrage as he shouted, "Linsey, are you out of your mind?" Linsey didn't let him finish. Her hand shot up and struck his cheek for the second time. She snapped back, her voice sharp with anger, "You betray me and still think you can raise your voice at me?" Felix looked shaken but quickly scrambled to defend himself. "You're making up stories! I haven't done anything. Show me your so-called proof!" Her patience snapped. "Still lying? Fine.

I'll dig up the evidence myself." Without waiting for his response, Linsey brushed past him and stormed into the bedroom. Her gaze immediately landed on the bed. She had spent every penny she had to buy this place, pouring her heart into every little detail. She had sewn those sheets and pillowcases herself, staying up three nights straight, believing that someday they would start their life together here. Yet, she had never spent a single night on that bed, while Joanna had already claimed it. Just imagining them tangled up there made Linsey's stomach churn. "Look for yourself.

No one's here! Where's this other woman you're accusing me of seeing?" Felix said, gesturing around the room, trying to salvage what dignity he could. Linsey didn't even glance at him as she moved toward the wardrobe, exactly the kind of spot someone might use to hide something. Panic flickered in Felix's eyes. He lunged forward, grabbing her arm in a desperate attempt to stop her. "Have you completely lost your mind?" As she saw his frantic reaction, Linsey's suspicions were confirmed. She gave him a cold smile. "Weren't you just demanding proof?

Let me show you what I find." For once, Felix had nothing to say. Linsey tore herself free from Felix's grip and sprinted toward the wardrobe. Felix's tone turned desperate as he shouted, "Linsey, don't!" But he was far too late to stop her. Discover updates gⱯlησνℓs․com With one swift motion, she flung the wardrobe doors wide open, exposing Joanna, crouched awkwardly beneath a tangle of clothes. Unlike Felix, Joanna made no attempt to cover up her nearly bare state. She wore only a lacy bra and matching panties, bunny ears perched on her head, and a red silk ribbon tied around her wrists.

Her cheeks were still flushed from their post-intercourse affair. Linsey stared down at her, her face unreadable. "So, what's it going to be? Are you walking out on your own, or do I need to drag you out myself?" Joanna's shoulders slumped as reality set in. Hiding was pointless now. But instead of answering Linsey's questions, Joanna glanced helplessly at Felix, her eyes filled with silent pleas. Catching the look, Felix quickly wedged himself between them, pushing Linsey back. He reached for a jacket and gently wrapped it around Joanna's bare shoulders. "It's my fault, Joanna.

I should've kept you safe." Joanna, still clinging to her performance of innocence, pressed a hand to his mouth and shook her head. "Don't blame yourself, Felix. I was the one who insisted on hiding. If anyone's to blame, it's me. I got you slapped by Linsey." The two of them seemed lost in their own little world, each scrambling to take the blame, oblivious to the pain radiating from Linsey. Watching the scene unfold, Linsey almost felt like an intruder.

If she hadn't known she was Felix's actual girlfriend, she could have believed she was just the unwelcome guest interrupting their tragic romance. . . .
