Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 975:

“He’s a complete waste! Always acting on a whim!” Bart’s face darkened to a dangerous shade. “I wash my hands of him. Let him rot in his own decisions—I’m through!”

Without sparing Linsey or Collin so much as a glance, Bart wheeled around and stormed toward the exit. Within moments, he had vanished entirely, leaving only the lingering trace of his fury.

Alissa stood frozen, torn between walking away and demanding answers. Her eyes narrowed as she shot a glare at Danny. “Just tell me already—why did Gorman change his mind again? What’s he playing at this time?”

Meanwhile, Linsey had managed to calm herself, but the confusion still clung to her like static. She wasn’t sure how to handle the situation unraveling before her.

She turned slightly, catching Collin’s eyes in the process.

A quiet chuckle escaped him. He leaned in and murmured, “Something on your mind?”

Though tempted to spill everything, Linsey glanced around and held back. “I’ll explain when we’re home.”

Questions kept swirling in her mind. Now that Gorman was alive, would the charges against Kylee and Haven shift? Was it illegal to fake one’s death?

She couldn’t shake the feeling that maybe the authorities had known the truth all along—that Gorman had never died.

Collin’s whole demeanor softened. Gone was the cold edge from earlier. He gave her a small nod. “Alright.”

Across from them, Danny picked up on Alissa’s rising frustration. He let out a quiet sigh, barely audible.

He couldn’t help but think that Linsey had a knack for bending things in her favor, somehow getting his boss to backtrack time and time again just for her.

Still, his job was to deliver the message exactly as instructed.

Though he had no fondness for Linsey, Danny kept his gaze down and said, “Ms. Brooks, my boss told me to let you know that if you’re serious about making amends, you should go see him at the hospital on your own.”

He paused for a moment, then added with added weight, “He made it clear—you have to go by yourself.”

Elsewhere, Dolores stirred awake. Her eyes fluttered open to find Zenia and Zander perched at her bedside, both watching her like tiny hawks.

She jerked upright, her eyes darting around in alarm, and asked in a puzzled tone, “What happened, sweethearts?”

Dolores extended her hand and softly tapped the heads of the two children.

Zenia’s lips curled into a pout as she looked upset. “Dolores, do you have any idea where Mommy and Daddy went? Zander and I tried calling them, but they wouldn’t pick up. Even Glenda doesn’t seem to know where they are.”

Glenda Reed happened to be the housekeeper that Collin had recently brought on board.noveldrama

That statement caught Dolores off guard, and for a brief moment, unease settled in her chest.

Without delay, she tried to soothe them. “How about you two stay here and play for a while? I’ll go find out what’s going on.”

She swung her legs over the bed, dressed in haste, and stepped out of the room.

Outside the door, several of Collin’s men stood in a cluster, clearly on edge.

“Ms. Davidson,” they said in unison, addressing her respectfully as soon as they saw her.
