Chapter 861:
He looked up, locking eyes with Collin’s cold, steady gaze. His mouth opened, but no words would come.
“You can leave now,” Collin said flatly, glancing at the assistant.
The assistant gave a slight bow and slipped quietly out of the office. Dustin was still staring at the papers,
trembling in his grip. How was this even possible?
“Enough.” Collin extended his hand, calmly retrieved the file, and set it aside with a flick of indifference. “Linsey
had a daughter,” he said. “There's no reason to act so shocked.”
Dustin studied Collins face, searching for even a flicker of emotion—but found nothing. There was no anger or
sadness, just that familiar, unreadable calm.
After a pause, he ventured carefully, “Who is the father of Linsey’s daughter?”
He didn’t have to finish the question. Collin caught the thread.
“Gorman claims he is the father.”
His lids lifted a fraction, his voice calm and remote, as though recounting something insignificant. “I ran into the
child again yesterday at the hospital. That makes it the third tnow.”

Four years had passed. Everything had changed.
Dustin just couldn't resist asking the question aloud.
“Is that child really Gorman’s?”
He glanced toward the stack of documents Collin had tossed aside earlier. “Those papers don’t confirm
paternity.”
Collin gave a short nod. “No, they don’t. But it doesn’t matter. I've made my decision. I'm going after Linsey
again.”
A spark lit in Dustin's eyes. “You're serious? You're actually going to pursue her again?”
Collin’s lips thinned into a firm line. “Yes.”
“But... what about Gorman?” Dustin asked hesitantly, the uncertainty threading into his voice.
After all, Linsey and Gorman shared a child. Didn't that make them a family now?
