Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 927: Linsey's frown softened upon hearing this. She had to admit that Haven's lingering presence in their lives bothered her. Although it was true that Haven and Collin had never gotten married, Linsey knew it was because Haven had run away at the last minute. That was the only reason she had gotten a chance to meet Collin. Collin and Linsey both got into the car. Once inside, Linsey said, her voice laced with jealousy, "I thought you still had feelings for Haven. You two almost got married." Collin regarded Linsey with a mix of helplessness and affection.

He then took her hand in his and said, "Back then, my expectations for marriage weren't high, and my grandma was quite eager to see me settle down, so I agreed. When I found out Haven had run away, my only worry was that Grandma wouldn't be happy." The earnest look on Collin's face left no doubt that every word he spoke was the truth. "Until I met you, I didn't see the beauty in marriage. Now, every day I spend with you is bliss." The butterflies in Linsey's stomach began to flutter furiously.

Turning away to hide her blush, she muttered, "How did you grow so sentimental in just four years?" "Sentimental?" Collin asked, his eyebrows raised. He then jabbed Linsey playfully and pulled her into an embrace. "If you still think I'm being sentimental, then you haven't grasped my true feelings."

Linsey leaned against his chest, a satisfied smile on her lips. Then a thought popped into her mind.

She sat up, fixed his collar, and said, "What about the Star of the Desert? It's not so much the ridiculous amount spent on it that bothers me, but the thought behind it. You said Ivy wanted you to take care of Haven, but that still doesn't explain why you spent so much on a necklace for her." Collin was slightly taken aback by her words. Brows furrowing lightly, he replied, "I bid on the Star of the Desert for you, not Haven." Then a look of realization crossed his face, and he asked, "Did those ridiculous rumors reach you? Don't believe what was said.

I bid on the Star of the Desert for you, not her. Do you understand?" Blinking in astonishment, Linsey slowly raised a finger to her chest. "Wait... you're actually giving the necklace to me?" "Yes. I saw how much you liked it during the auction that night. That's the only reason I stepped in and kept bidding against Gorman. I didn't think twice about it. I just wanted to get the necklace and give it to you when the time felt right." Collin added, "At the time, I didn't know what you really felt, and I didn't want to make things difficult for you.

That's why I kept quiet about it." Linsey narrowed her eyes and gave Collin a pout, suspicion flickering across her face. Her voice danced between playful and irritated as she said, "But you already gave the Star of the Desert to Haven. She showed up at Gorman's just a few days ago wearing it. I saw it myself, and there's no mistaking it was the real thing." . . .
