Chapter 502: "Is that so?"
Linsey let out a small laugh. "Well, my introduction to design came through the company he built. That's what inspired me to pursue this field, so in a way, he played a role in shaping my career."
"Ohhh, that makes sense."
"But I doubt I'd win anything," Linsey added with a shrug. "You never know! Everyone has a shot!" a colleague said.
Linsey smiled but shook her head. "Even if I did win, I wouldn't be able to go. My husband is ridiculously possessive. He'd probably make a huge fuss over it, and honestly, I don't have the energy to deal with that."
The room fell quiet for a second before realization clicked. Oh, right. Linsey wasn't just married-her husband was Collin, the eldest son of the Riley family.
Collin didn't have a good reputation in Grester, but her colleagues wished her happiness.
"She makes it sound like a complaint, but you can hear the affection in her voice."
"She's kind and gorgeous-if I were her husband, I'd be keeping an eye on everyone around her too."
The remark instantly sent laughter rippling through the group.
Linsey smiled and shook her head. "You guys sure have a way with words."
One of her colleagues suddenly said, "By the way, Linsey, have you and your husband thought about having kids? You two are such a loving couple, but we haven't heard any news yet."
She hesitated briefly before responding with a warm smile. "It's already something we've talked about. If there's good news, you'll be the first to know."

"With your looks, Linsey, your baby is bound to be adorable!"
Your new favorite is gαℓησν????????s․cօm
After the lighthearted conversation, she returned to her desk and got back to work.
But the topic lingered in her thoughts.
The idea of having a child with Collin was an unexpectedly sweet thought.
A soft smile formed on her lips as she imagined it.
Just then, her phone buzzed with a new message.
She picked it up and saw Collin's name on the screen.
"I have a business trip to a neighboring city for the next few days. Take care of yourself while I'm away. I'll be back as soon as possible. If you need anything, call me anytime."
Linsey blinked in surprise. She hadn't expected him to leave on such short notice.
She quickly typed back, "Did you pack everything you need?"
"Yeah, all set."
A few moments later, another message popped up. "By the way, I noticed you were running low on sanitary pads, so I had them restocked. Your period's been late this month, so you might have cramps when it starts. If you're not feeling well, let me know, okay?"
Linsey couldn't help but smile at his thoughtful words. She replied, "Got it. Don't worry about me-just focus on your trip. I'll take care of myself."
Even the smallest details never escaped him. It was impossible not to feel touched.
That evening, when Linsey arrived home, Collin was already gone.
The house felt quieter, almost emptier without him. Even the meal in front of her seemed to have lost its usual flavor.
A servant, noticing her lack of appetite, spoke gently. "Mrs. Riley, before Mr. Riley left, he reminded us multiple times to make sure you're eating well. If the food isn't to your liking, we can prepare something else for you."
