Chapter 686 Linsey, Are
You Serious
Elsewhere, Gorman located Linsey discreetly enjoying a glass of wine in a secluded corner.
Linsey sensed his approach but didn't acknowledge him, continuing to sip her wine with a cold demeanor.
"Linsey," Gorman called softly, his smile warm.
Abruptly, Linsey set her glass down hard on the table.
The noise of the banquet barely registered the sound, but for Gorman, standing so close to her, it made his heart
skip a
beat.
As Gorman opened his mouth to speak, Linsey's stern gaze met his, silencing him mid-breath.
Taking a moment, Linsey said, "Gorman, your support over the years has meant a lot to me, and I've truly valued

Her expression softened ironically as she gestured to her masked face. "I even consulted Dolores about wearing

Linsey sighed deeply before adding, "Yet, your behavior tonight has undermined all my precautions."
Gorman's smile vanished, replaced by a solemn expression as he locked eyes with Linsey.
After a tense pause, Gorman posed a direct question. "Linsey, what's the reason for your disguise around Collin?"
His gaze was piercing. He attempted to capture any fleeting emotion in her response.
"It has been four years since you last saw Collin. You're supposed to be unfazed by his presence, yet you still
seem terrified, hiding your face whenever he's around," Gorman said before scoffing meaningfully. "Doesn't this
suggest you still haven't gotten over him?"
Linsey stared at Gorman, taken aback.
She suddenly perceived a different side of Gorman, one that was assertive and unnervingly profound.
Taking a moment to steady her breathing, Linsey composed herself.
"Gorman, my feelings towards Collin are my affair. I'll manage them on my own without needing anyone's
interference."
Linsey spoke with a remarkable sense of calm and composure. "I appreciate your help, but if you intend to
leverage that to

Gorman's eyes flickered, his voice shaky as he responded, "Linsey, are you serious?"
Linsey's gaze did not waver; her voice carried a grave sincerity.
