Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 250: Linsey laughed lightly, flicking away some dust from Collin's jacket.

Collin raised his hand, signaling her to stop, and murmured, "It's dirty. Don't touch it."

"Then go change quickly. I'll have the staff clean up the kitchen," Linsey said as she turned to seek the maids out.

Collin moved toward Dustin, inquiring, "What did you want to talk about?" Dustin adopted a grave tone. "It's something important."

Collin seemed unfazed. "I need to change first, then have dinner with Linsey. She's been on her feet all day and hasn't eaten much. I've already troubled her enough…"

As Collin continued to elaborate on his concern for Linsey, Dustin cut in. "Alright, I get it. You care about your wife. No need to explain further. I really do have something crucial to discuss. Let's head to the study."

Linsey, having just spoken to the maids, caught Dustin's plea and glanced at Collin. To her surprise, Collin immediately declined. "I'm busy. Come back another time."

Linsey swiftly intervened. "Collin, please head to the study and speak with Mr. Wade. I'll take care of things here with the maids."

She approached him, leaned down, and whispered softly in his ear, "Mr. Wade is your friend and our guest. Remember to be polite."

Collin's expression clouded with a frown, and he seemed poised to argue, but the stern look in Linsey's eyes halted him.

He paused, then offered her a conciliatory smile and gently took her hand. "Alright, I understand. Don't overdo it, okay? Let the maids handle everything and make sure they prepare something nice for you to eat," Collin conceded.

Linsey nodded in agreement and gestured for Collin's assistant to come and push his wheelchair.

After changing, Collin made his way into the study with Dustin.

As soon as the door closed behind them, Collin caught Dustin giving him a peculiar look.

Collin scowled. "What's with that look?"

Dustin shook his head, took a seat on the sofa, and let out a heavy sigh. "How did I not see it before? You're truly a devoted husband. It seems you follow your wife's suggestions without any resistance."

Collin remained composed, his voice even as he responded, "What's the issue with following my wife's suggestions without any resistance? Linsey genuinely cares about me, and I'm content to let her be in charge."

He then teased Dustin. "That's more than I can say for you. Have you even found a woman who can keep you in line? You've flitted from one relationship to another and still haven't found someone to settle down with."

Dustin's expression tightened at the pointed remark.

It was a hard truth. Throughout the years, Dustin had wandered from one fleeting romance to the next, yet none of those relationships had blossomed into something real. Each woman had been drawn to his wealth and status, hoping to gain his favor.

This pattern had led him to a deep skepticism about love, culminating in his decision to remain unmarried.

By stark contrast, Linsey's love for Collin was heartfelt. She looked beyond his material possessions and challenges, focusing instead on supporting him as his wife.

Indeed, Collin was a lucky man.

The more Dustin pondered this, the more his irritation grew. He retorted, "Collin, are you truly so sure Linsey will always be there for you?"
