Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 306: Turning their eyes toward Gorman, lounging on the sofa, they were startled to see him smiling broadly.

What was happening? Had their boss snapped? He had just been sharply criticized by the person who had saved his life, yet here he was, laughing.

Were they about to bear the brunt of his frustration?

Against their assumptions, Gorman was genuinely cheerful. After years of traveling the globe, he had finally tracked down the woman who had rescued him all those years ago. Now that he knew who she was and where she was, he approached her with remarkable patience. Nevertheless, Gorman hadn't foreseen that Linsey would possess such a strong personality. Yet, regarding Linsey, Gorman found it effortless to persuade himself, letting her influence his emotions significantly.

The only issue that bothered him was Linsey's immediate dismissal of his invitation. Was it because he had chosen not to reveal who he was right away? He had intended it as a surprise.

The more he thought about it, the more it vexed him. He turned to his subordinates and inquired, "Why do you think Linsey blocked my number?" He felt he had been gentle and patient during their earlier conversation.

The subordinates hesitated, taken aback by the question. Indeed, a call from an unknown number was typically unwelcome-who wouldn't block that?

Although this thought crossed their minds, expressing it was another matter. Telling the truth could sometimes lead to consequences.

So, one subordinate carefully suggested, "Maybe she was just overwhelmed. We discovered a significant plagiarism scandal involving her recently. That must be putting a lot of pressure on her, so she probably doesn't have time for anything else. Boss, don't overthink it. Linsey isn't upset with you. She's just preoccupied with those issues."

Hearing this, Gorman nodded thoughtfully. "You make a good point." His brow furrowed as he continued, "What's happening with those troublemakers?"

The negative press surrounding Linsey had deeply troubled him. How could they malign Linsey in such a manner? If his focus hadn't been so set on reconnecting with her, he would have already taken steps to teach those individuals the harsh consequences of crossing Linsey.

One of the subordinates quickly responded, "Linsey's former supervisor and her colleague were both dismissed by CR Corporation. As for Kylee Russell, she's currently in police custody, awaiting further investigation."

At the mention of that name, Gorman's eyes briefly flashed with revulsion. "Kylee Russell…"

One subordinate, thinking Gorman needed a reminder, started to explain, "She was the one who tried to drug you at the banquet…"

Before he could finish, Gorman gave him a piercing look. "Enough."

Following that incident, Gorman had decisively sent Kylee packing back to Grester. Just the thought of her attempt to seduce him was enough to make his stomach turn.

A new thought suddenly struck Gorman, altering his expression. "By the way, wasn't Kylee quite close to the founder of CR Corporation? Now that she's caught up in this mess, isn't that person going to step in and help her?"

Gorman's subordinate shook his head, puzzled. "No, maybe Kylee doesn't know the founder of CR Corporation. After all, the founder is an enigma, and very few know what he looks like. How could someone like Kylee have any real contact with him?"
