Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 898: The moment Gorman saw her like that, something twisted inside him. Jealousy wrapped tight around his chest, followed by a sharp pang of resentment. It stunned him to think that, after everything, Linsey still held feelings for Collin. Just the idea that Linsey was genuinely upset by news of Collin and Haven's upcoming wedding made Gorman seethe with anger. Fueled by spite, Gorman became determined to tear down whatever fragile hope Linsey might still be clinging to. She needed to understand that there would never be a future between her and Collin-not in this lifetime.

With that bitter thought, a cold smirk tugged at Gorman's lips as he reached out and grabbed Linsey's wrist. Linsey tried to pull away, but Gorman tightened his hold, refusing to let go. "Miss Walton is also getting married. Why don't you two try on your wedding dresses on the same day?" Gorman said with a steady gaze locked on Linsey, his smile laced with quiet defiance and unwavering resolve. "Besides, the dress I created for you has already been refined to perfection.

Why not let her weigh in and tell us whether it fits you well?" Although the question seemed to be aimed at Linsey, Gorman wasn't actually waiting for her to answer. His gaze stayed on Linsey, yet he addressed Haven. "What's your opinion, Miss Walton?" He paused for a moment, then casually flashed a smile and added, "Collin would definitely agree, no doubt about it." galnovels.cóm is the source Catching on to what Gorman really meant, Haven gave a faint smile and answered in a calm voice, "Of course he would.

I'll let him know once I return." She had already planned to update Collin about Gorman and Linsey's impending marriage and would try to convince him to come along and accompany Linsey to try on her wedding dress. What Gorman truly wanted was to trick both Linsey and Collin into believing the other had moved on. He was confident Linsey would never directly ask Collin about it, given how she usually kept her feelings to herself. And Collin? He wouldn't get the chance to clear up the confusion with Linsey. As a result, the distance between them would only grow wider.

Once Linsey became Gorman's wife, neither of them would be able to undo what had happened. When Gorman first pitched the idea, Haven wasn't entirely convinced it would work. It was hard for her to believe that a single miscommunication could create such a rift between Linsey and Collin. Given how deeply Collin cared for Linsey, Haven doubted he would simply back down, even if Linsey went through with marrying Gorman. Still, she went along with Gorman's scheme because she had her own plan to fall back on.

And with that thought, Haven's smile remained warm, though something far colder flickered in her eyes. . . .
