Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 210: Whoever this woman was, she needed to be dealt with-before Collin returned.

With that thought, Kylee didn't hesitate. Her voice was sharp, cutting through the silence.

"Whoever you are, get out of this villa immediately! This is Collin's home, not a place for strangers to wander into!"

Kylee's arrogance made Linsey furrow her brows. Only then did she notice how casually Kylee referred to Collin-as if they were more than just acquaintances. Linsey had never known Collin was close to Kylee.

Pushing that thought aside, Linsey kept her voice steady. "You're mistaken. I didn't trespass-I live here."

The moment those words left Linsey's mouth, Kylee's expression darkened, her gaze turning icy.

"You live here?" Kylee scoffed. "Do you even hear yourself? Women like you are everywhere-clinging to men, hoping for a free ride. You're obviously just trying to get close to Collin, aren't you?"

Kylee took a step forward, her tone dripping with disdain. "Since you insist on being shameless, don't blame me for handling this the hard way."

Before Linsey could respond, Kylee spun around and shouted, "Someone, get in here!"

Josh arrived swiftly, his expression calm. "Miss Russell, is something wrong?"

Kylee shot him a sharp look. "Do you people even know how to do your jobs? Some random woman just waltzed into Collin's villa! Get her out of here-immediately!"

Her commanding tone carried the weight of someone who believed she had every right to be there.

But Josh hesitated. His gaze flickered to Linsey, surprise flashing across his face before he spoke. "Mrs. Riley, you're back?"

Linsey gave a small nod, her voice steady. "I just got back."

Kylee stiffened, her head snapping toward Josh. "What did you just call her?"

Josh met Kylee's incredulous stare and answered matter-of-factly, "Mrs. Riley."

He continued, his tone polite but firm. "Miss Russell, you've been overseas, so you may not be aware. This is Mr. Riley's wife-Linsey, the rightful mistress of this villa."

Kylee's eyes widened in disbelief. She stared at Linsey, her expression twisting with resentment.

"His wife? That's impossible!" Kylee spat. "She must have married him for his money! Collin has been fooled by her!"

Her voice grew shrill, and her words turned cruel.

Linsey's stomach tightened. The hostility in Kylee's gaze made her uneasy, but she refused to let it show.

Before she could respond, Josh stepped in, his tone firm. "That's enough, Miss Russell. Please show some respect to Mrs. Riley. Regardless of how long you've known Mr. Riley or how famous you are, if you continue this behavior, we'll have no choice but to ask you to leave."

Josh's words made Kylee freeze, her face draining of color.

She didn't know much about Linsey, but she knew one thing-Josh wasn't just any servant. He had worked in the villa for years, and his words often reflected Collin's own.

And right now, he was defending Linsey without hesitation. That could only mean one thing-this woman wasn't just some passing fling. In Collin's eyes, she was someone important.

Kylee clenched her fists. She hadn't come here to pick a fight-she needed a favor from Collin. Swallowing her pride, she forced herself to hold her tongue.
