Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 507: Linsey recalled the conversations among her colleagues earlier, suggesting Carol might have harbored feelings for the founder of CR Corporation.

Yet, Linsey herself had no connection to him.

Despite this, she couldn't shake the feeling that this information was significant.

The thought persisted, refusing to be dismissed. A memory suddenly surfaced in Linsey's mind.

Not long ago, she had been caught in a plagiarism scandal and was forcibly dismissed by Caen, who was in charge at the time.

Later, when the truth was revealed, she recalled that the CR Corporation's founder had personally defended her using the company's official account.

At that time, Linsey was astonished that someone of his stature would support a designer of her standing.

Now, reflecting on it, could Carol's animosity stem from seeing that public endorsement?

With these thoughts swirling in her mind, Linsey seated herself, turned on her computer, and navigated to the company's official social media page to revisit the post in question.

The signature in the bottom right of the apology unmistakably belonged to the founder of CR Corporation.

Why had the founder gone out of his way to advocate for Linsey in the past?

Was it possible that he had known her beforehand?

As Linsey pondered this, her phone started to vibrate.

Regaining her focus, she saw Collin's name flashing on the caller ID.

A wave of guilt washed over her.

She had been musing about another man, and if the notoriously jealous Collin discovered this, he would surely react poorly.

Linsey set her thoughts aside, answered the phone, and spoke gently. "Hello, darling?"

There was a brief pause on the other end before Collin responded with a hint of suspicion, "Linsey, you sound a bit unusual today. It's only been a day since I left. Haven't you been up to something you shouldn't?"

Surprised by his accusation, Linsey's eyes widened. "Why would you say that?"

As she spoke, she recalled her recent reflections about the CR Corporation's founder.

Although it was a minor thought, she knew that to the jealous Collin, it could escalate into a major issue.

Linsey resolved not to mention her thoughts about the CR Corporation's founder to Collin.

With a light chuckle, Collin teased, "I'm just messing with you. Don't take it to heart."

He then shifted to a gentler tone, adding, "Have you been eating regularly today? How did you sleep after work? And how about your menstrual cycle, any discomfort? Remember, there's pain medication in our room's drawer if you need it."

Linsey's heart warmed as she listened to his considerate questions.

She decided against mentioning that her period was late until she confirmed it with a test, wanting to spare Collin any worry.

"Everything's fine with me, no need to worry," Linsey reassured him softly. "How about you? How's the business trip going?"

Collin's face brightened with a tender smile, though Linsey couldn't see it.

Unbeknownst to Linsey, Collin had traveled to a nearby city to secure a diamond ring from a famous jewelry designer. Taking advice from his friend Dustin, he planned to reveal everything at the CR Corporation's upcoming gala and propose in spectacular fashion, even though they were already married.
