The Billionaire's Hidden Bride A Lifetof Love 668 Chapter 668 I Need To See Her "Wait! Collin!" Before Dustin could react, the resting room door shut. Collin was already gone.
Dustin glanced at the screen, bit his lip, and muttered, "Arthur should be fine... But I need to check on Collin." Over the years, Collin always lost his grip whenever Linsey was involved.
Dustin truly feared he might do something reckless-especially with so many eyes watching at today's competition.
Collin strode straight toward the designer's passageway.
With every step, his heart thumped harder and faster.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was almost certain now-Aurora was Linsey.
No matter what happened, he had to see her for himself.
"Mr. Riley? What brings you here?" A staff member stood at the entrance. He had been working with Linsey and froze slightly when he saw Collin's serious face.
Collin didn't waste time. "Has Contestant No. 3 finished speaking?" He remembered that when he walked out earlier, it was Arthur's turn to present.
"Yes," he replied, trying to stay calm, though his expression showed clear confusion. "Is there something you need?" "I need to go in. I want to see her," Collin said firmly.
He stepped forward.
Startled, the staff member quickly raised his hand to stop him. "Mr. Riley, the competition is anonymous this year. Until the results are announced, no one is allowed to know which designer is which." Biting his lip nervously, he added, "Your designer is in Booth 5. You can check there." A flicker of impatience crossed Collin's face. "I'll explain everything to the person in charge. My presence won't affect the results." Before the staff member could argue, Collin moved past her and walked in without hesitation.
"Mr. Riley!" he called out in a panic, glancing around.
Others were nearby, so he swallowed his voice and hurried after Collin.
As Collin walked, the space ahead opened up. The lights grew brighter.
He felt the air shift-heavy, damp, and warm.
19:56 Then it hit him-Contestant No. 3 had been dyeing a T-shirt during the presentation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe remembered the fabric, soaked and dripping wet. Yet by the end of the round, it had started drying Now it made sense-the temperature in Booth 3 had been turned up.
Had the designer felt faint or dizzy in that heat? Thinking of Linsey possibly enduring all that made Collin's chest tighten.
He was only a few steps away from Booth 3 when his pace slowed.
His gaze fixed on the bright light ahead. In a flash, the memory of their divorce, four years ago crushing E back-the courthouse, the silence, the way she had walked away. Every night since then, he had dreamed of Linsey.
And now, just moments away from seeing her again, Collin found himself frozen.
His heart raced, not with excitement, but fear. He feared she still carried the pain. He feared the anger she had every right
to feel. And most of all, he feared that after everything, she might never forgive him. 100.0%
