Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 841:

She then gave Linsey a meaningful look and said, “From what I said earlier, it seems he’s interested in working with Aurora.”

Linsey’s expression froze upon hearing this. There were a few seconds of silence before she finally said, “Let’s see what terms he offers. We can’t afford to pass up a good deal.”

Dolores chuckled at this and put her hands on Linsey’s shoulders. “Alright, enough talk. You should get some rest now. A good rest will help replenish your strength.”

“Okay,” Linsey said, pulling the blanket over herself. However, before she closed her eyes, she added, “You and Dustin were supposed to have a conversation. Go find him and have that talk. It would clear things up.”

Dolores was slightly taken aback that Linsey still remembered something as trivial as that in this situation.

“Go to sleep and stop worrying about things,” Dolores simply said in reply.

Linsey closed her eyes and soon drifted into a deep sleep.

Dolores sat at her bedside, watching her for a while, then her phone buzzed.

She took it out and, to her surprise, saw it was a message from Dustin. “I’m still in the hallway outside. If you have time, come outside. Let’s talk.”noveldrama

Dolores was surprised. Had it not been for Linsey falling asleep without touching her phone, Dolores might have accused her of planning this with Dustin.

It did seem oddly timed that just when Linsey had fallen asleep, Dustin’s message had come in.

Dolores contemplated the matter for a while before finally agreeing that she and Dustin needed to have a proper conversation.

Dolores rose from her seat without a sound and quietly left the hospital room.

Moments after she disappeared, the door creaked open again. A tall figure stepped inside, his movements so soft he barely made a sound.

Crossing the room in a few strides, he came to a halt at Linsey’s bedside. He stood there, silently taking in her peaceful, sleeping face before pulling out a small jar of ointment from his pocket. Kneeling beside her, he began dabbing the ointment over the redness on her cheeks with the utmost care.

Even in her sleep, Linsey seemed to notice the change. The throbbing heat on her skin gave way to a refreshing coolness that soothed her senses.

The lingering discomfort faded bit by bit, easing her deeper into a calm and restful sleep.

As he finished tending to her, his finger brushed softly against the delicate skin near her ear, pausing there for a fleeting second before finally pulling away.

A quiet sigh of relief escaped Collin’s lips once he completed applying the ointment.

Still, he didn’t rush to leave. Instead, he sat there, his gaze full of tenderness as he studied Linsey’s gentle expression.

However, the warmth in his eyes gradually dimmed when he remembered that Linsey had yet to forgive him.
