Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 591: Collin took her words lightly, assuming she might be thinking of buying him a present. "Sounds great, let's both eagerly await the day," he replied casually.

A gleam of excitement shone in Linsey's eyes, her happiness unmistakable. "Sounds perfect."

Together, they stood and made their way to the restaurant for dinner. Suddenly, a thought struck Linsey.

"Hold on, isn't our firm's annual gala also in ten days?" she asked, giving Collin a curious look. Collin caught Linsey's probing gaze and felt a flicker of nerves. Knowing how perceptive she was, he worried she might connect the dots and realize he was behind CR Corporation. The possibility made him slightly anxious.

Trying to mask his unease, he replied casually, "Really? What a coincidence!"

"Absolutely!" Linsey confirmed after checking her phone. "It's set for ten days from now, our gala."

She looked at him thoughtfully, her eyebrows raised. "You know, Collin, you're being quite mysterious…"

Collin, usually calm, felt his breath catch. "What do you mean?"

He wondered if Linsey had figured out his secret. Maybe it was finally time to tell her everything.

Just as Collin was about to confess, Linsey interrupted with a wide grin. "All this jealousy over the founder seems misplaced. And now, planning your surprise on the same day as their gala? Are you trying to get me to take the day off?"

Collin swallowed his intended confession. Seeing Linsey's amused expression, he replied with a sheepish smile, "Actually, my surprise isn't motivated by jealousy."

Little did she know, his planned surprise would happen at the very site of the CR Corporation's gala.

"Oh, so it's really just a coincidence?" Linsey laughed, pretending to pout. "Here I was, thinking you were still the commanding man I married. Such a shame."

Collin chuckled, drawing Linsey into an embrace, his eyebrows raised playfully. "Do you miss seeing me jealous?"

Linsey let out a soft snort, playfully poking Collin's chest before she could stop herself. "Remember, the old Collin never shied away from admitting he was quick to jealousy."

"You've got it wrong," Collin answered with a gentle laugh, taking her hand and placing it over his heart. "In this life, my jealousy is reserved only for you, my dear Linsey."

He leaned in close, his breath warm on her cheek, and gently nibbled her shoulder in a teasing gesture.

Linsey chuckled at Collin's affectionate words but quickly put on a serious face. "You're lying. Last time we visited your grandmother, she told me herself that you've always been possessive since you were little, always hogging her attention."
