Collin s eyes locked on hers, his reply coming without a pause. Because of you.

The words stunned Linsey so deeply she wondered if her ears had played a trick. Shaking herself, she forced out a nervous laugh. Come on, Mr. Riley, you don t really expect me to buy that.

I ve never been more serious, Collin said, his expression set in stone. When I learned you were in trouble that night, nothing else mattered. I didn t think. I just went straight to you. There wasn t even time to sit in the chair.

It was the one moment that pushed him to finally reveal everything. Meanwhile, the driver who had worked for Collin long enough to know when to keep quiet said nothing, giving them space.

Linsey could only stare, her mind reeling, not sure what to say or do.

Before she could collect herself, Collin s voice came again, steady and deliberate. Linsey, you need to hear this. Whatever Gorman can offer, I can match and more. If you d let me, I d love you in a way he never could. End things with him. Let me be the one.

Did you actually just say that? Linsey s eyes flew wide, a wave of sheer disbelief washing over her.

Was he really still not making himself clear?

With that thought, Collin added softly, I mean it. I m into you.

You ve lost your mind, Linsey blurted out.

Collin had already braced himself for every possible reaction she could throw at him. Of all the ways Linsey might have reacted, calling him crazy had never crossed his mind.

Her bluntness left Collin momentarily speechless. I m not out of my mind. I mean every word.

His lips parted as he was ready to remind her of the night they had spent together.

Before he could say it, Linsey s voice cut in sharply. Aren t you supposed to be in love with Kylee? Isn t she the one you re with?

Where did you even get that idea?

That doesn t matter, Linsey retorted, refusing to utter Gorman s name. Just tell me the truth.

Collin answered firmly, Kylee was never my girlfriend, and I never had feelings for her.

Not even once? Linsey pressed.

Normally, Collin had little patience for this kind of questioning, but right now he answered without a hint of annoyance. Not once.

The certainty in his tone matched the calm set of his face. Linsey searched his expression, hunting for the smallest crack in his words. Finding none, she had no choice but to let the suspicion drop.

Yet another doubt crept into her thoughts, pulling her deeper into confusion. If Collin wasn t tied to Kylee, then why had Gorman told her otherwise? Updates are released by F ndNovel.net

Is there something else you want to ask? Collin said evenly.

Memories of Gorman s ex-fianc e bubbled up unexpectedly. Gripping onto that thought, she asked, Then tell me this. Why did you take Gorman s fianc e from him?
