Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 1300: Linsey gaped at him in shock. "How do you not remember her? Weren't you the one who sent people to humiliate her in Starwood?" Her words jogged his memory. He scoffed, "Why bother with her name? Just call her the shameless woman." To him, a woman who stole someone else's fiancé didn't deserve the dignity of a name. Linsey found herself speechless, unable to counter his blunt logic. Before she could respond, Collin's tone turned icy with mockery. "Have you lost your senses or taken a blow to the head?

After that messy split with that deadbeat, you still want to work under your ex-fiancé?" "I'm not that foolish," Linsey shot back defensively. "Oh, really?" Collin's skeptical glance cut through her, his sneer sharp. "Tell me, who's more clueless than you?" "Well, uh..." Linsey's mind blanked, and she faltered, unable to name anyone. Collin seized the moment, declaring, "You're the biggest idiot out there." "I am not!" Linsey protested, her brows knitting in defiance as she glared at him. "Collin, you're so annoying!" He smirked.

"That's still better than being brainless." "You!" Furious, Linsey grabbed a cushion and hurled it at him. "You jerk, I'll make you pay!" Their argument erupted into familiar bickering. Roland, accustomed to their spats, had planned to mention dinner but wisely slipped away upon seeing their heated exchange. Still seething, Linsey refused to explain herself further and stormed off to eat alone. The next morning, as Linsey ate breakfast and prepared for work, Collin's low voice stopped her.

"If you're so keen on working, I can set you up with a job far better and more comfortable than anything at Wells Group." "I appreciate the offer, but I have my own plan," Linsey replied, her voice polite but firm. gαℓησνs․çоm, where stories thrive Collin set his utensils on the table and shot her a sharp look. "So your idea is to keep making money for Felix and make me look like some idiot getting cheated?" A frown crossed Linsey's face. "That's not what I'm trying to say." "Then spell it out," he said, his patience clearly wearing thin.

The sound of his utensils hitting the plate filled the room. "If you don't explain yourself today, you're not leaving this house." Linsey's frustration showed in her voice. "Why do you have to act like this all the time?" He did not hesitate with his answer. "Because I can't help it." That only made Linsey more upset. Finally, she let the truth out. "Half of the Wells Group is my effort. I can't just watch Felix and Joanna steal it away. That's why I've been swallowing my pride, getting close to them, and waiting for the right time to take back what's mine." She spoke with complete honesty.

Collin listened and replied evenly, "Taking it back doesn't have to be so difficult. All you have to do is let me help, and you'd have it all by tonight." Linsey shook her head without any doubt. "I won't do that. I refuse to rely on anyone else. I want to win back everything on my own." . . .
