Chapter 862:
At that, a faint, fleeting smile flickered across Collin’s lips.
But Dustin frowned again. “Hold on... if you're planning to win Linsey back, does that mean you're giving up
Haven Walton?”
“Yes. My only courtesy toward Haven is out of respect for my grandmother.”
“But the rumors are already swirling. Everyone thinks you're about to marry her. If Linsey hears that, she'll jump
to the wrong conclusion again. You remember what happened yesterday at the restaurant—she asked about
Haven, and you didn’t exactly deny it.”
Collin remained silent, torn. Two seconds passed. Then, out of nowhere, he asked, “Have you heard anything
about Joanne?”
Dustin looked taken aback. “Joanne? You mean Joanne Ellis? | remember she’s close to Haven.”
Collin leaned back slightly, his posture loosening as his tone turned almost leisurely. “She’s been digging into
Linsey... and anyone who's been close to Dolores lately.”
Dustin's curiosity flared the moment he heard Collin’s words. “Why would Joanne check up on Dolores?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCollin shot him a sharp look and corrected him quietly. “She’s not after Dolores. She's digging into Linsey—the
one who sat beside Dolores yesterday.”
“So it’s Linsey she’s focused on. Then why dig into Dolores?” Dustin muttered, suspicion creeping into his voice.
A beat later, his eyes widened. He turned to Collin, stunned. “Wait... you hid Linsey’s past in Grester. So, Haven
doesn’t know Linsey—the one we had dinner with—is your ex-wife?”
Collin gave a small nod. “Exactly. None of us mentioned Linsey’s nlast night. So naturally, Haven doesn’t
know she’s also the designer Aurora.”

Dustin felt his head spinning.
So much had happened in just thirty minutes, he could barely keep up. He exhaled slowly. “Now | get it... You're
trying to figure out Haven'’s real motive.”
Collin laced his fingers, his gaze dropping slightly. “Linsey hasn't forgivenfor what happened four years ago.
Until | know where she stands, | don’t want to push. I'm scared she’ll vanish from Grester again... just like last
time.”
His lips pressed into a tight line. “If she truly doesn’t want to be with me, | won't force it.”
Dustin nodded thoughtfully, then made up his mind. “I'll ask Dolores about Linsey and her daughter if | can. Even
if the child is Gorman'’s by blood, that doesn’t mean you can’t be the stepdad.”
But Collin wasn’t interested in the what-ifs. He raised a hand in quiet dismissal, signaling Dustin to leave.
At that moment, neither of them had the faintest idea what was unfolding downstairs in the lobby of CR
Corporation.
