Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 475: Linsey's heart began to race, the thought crashing over her like a tidal wave.

Ever since Ivy started asking when she and Collin would have children, Linsey had been more eager to get pregnant.

But just as the flicker of hope ignited in her eyes, she quickly smothered it.

She masked her disappointment with a forced chuckle. "It's probably just my old stomach issue acting up again."

The last time, she had had a similar episode with dry heaving, all from not getting enough rest and dealing with stomach discomfort.

Lately, she had been buried in work-especially designing a suit for Collin, which had consumed most of her time.

It was probably just exhaustion. That would explain why she had been so tired this morning.

The designer, still concerned, suggested gently,

"Linsey, I really think you should see a doctor soon."

Linsey nodded, giving a faint smile.

"Alright, I'll go to the hospital. Thank you."

The designer didn't linger, quickly returning to her desk to resume work.

Linsey glanced at her schedule. Tonight, she had to attend the Lawson family's banquet.

If she still wasn't feeling well by the afternoon, she would ask Collin to take her to the hospital after the banquet.

After finishing work, Linsey stopped by a nearby beauty salon to change into her evening gown and apply a touch of refined yet understated makeup.

Once she was ready, she glanced at her reflection in the mirror, feeling reasonably content with her appearance.

Earlier that afternoon, she had been feeling unwell, and her complexion had looked rather dull.

Now, with a bit of makeup, she finally appeared refreshed and composed.

Attending the banquet looking as drained as she had earlier would have been far from appropriate.

Satisfied with her final look, Linsey gathered the hem of her gown and stepped into the car, setting off for the Lawson family's banquet.

Half an hour later, she noticed they had barely moved and were still near CR Corporation.

Frowning slightly, she rolled down the window, scanning the congestion outside.

The traffic was completely gridlocked.

"Mrs. Riley, we've been stuck in the same spot for quite some time," the driver said with a hint of frustration. "At this rate, I'm not sure we'll make it to the banquet on time…"

Linsey's voice remained calm.

"It's alright, just drive carefully. Safety comes first."

It was rush hour, so heavy traffic was to be expected.

Just then, her phone rang, and she quickly picked up.

"Linsey, are you close?" Collin's voice was warm and gentle.

A smile played on Linsey's lips.
