Chapter 359 You're The Only One For Me

"Rest assured, Linsey. Gorman won't get away with this," Collin said bluntly.noveldrama

Linsey's lips tightened, her worry clearly etched on her face.

"But Gorman holds significant influence as a Green. Opposing him could have dire consequences for us," she said, gripping

Collin's hand. "We mustn't be rash."

Collin felt a pang in his heart as he realized she was still concerned about the consequences.

Looking deeply into her eyes, he whispered, "Regardless of who he is, Linsey, I'm committed to making things right for you.

Do you honestly believe I'll just sit idly by? That I'm incapable of defending my own wife?"

With a helpless sigh, Linsey murmured, "It's your safety that concerns me."

In silence, Collin balled his fists, a surge of resolve stopping him from holding back any longer.

"Linsey, I need to tell you..."

However, his words were cut off by a sharp call from outside the hospital room.

"Who's out there?"

The sharp call from his assistant snapped Collin to attention.

"What's going on?" As he protected Linsey, Collin faced the door with a piercing look.

The assistant entered, looking uneasy. "Sir, I thought I saw someone near the hallway's end."

"You saw someone?" Collin questioned, his expression darkening.

The assistant faltered. "Perhaps I was mistaken."

Considering the hospital's bustling activity, Collin decided to let go of his suspicions. However, he swiftly added a

precaution. “Double the security in this area."

The assistant responded with a nod, "Right away, Mr. Riley."

A troubling thought crossed Linsey's mind at that moment.

Was the figure possibly Gorman?

Earlier that day in the hotel lounge.

"Stay back!" With a firm grip on the knife, Linsey issued a stern warning to Gorman as he moved closer.

Her complexion had turned ghostly, a clear sign of her panic and dread.

During her desperate attempt to back away, Linsey tripped and tumbled to the floor, the knife skittering away from her

grasp.

"Linsey!" In his alarm, Gorman's first instinct was to rush to her aid.

"Don't come any closer" The strain in Linsey's voice was evident, her words barely

a whisper as she teetered on the edge of despair.

With eyes brimming with tears, she shot Gorman a pleading look. "Gorman, don't push me to despise you... Stay away from

1. me. Don't come any closer!"

Gorman stopped in his tracks, frozen.

The sight of Linsey's evident fright and resistance cut through him, wrenching his heart.

"Do you truly despise me that much?" he asked, his voice thick with sorrow.

Linsey took a deep breath, striving to stay calm. Pondering Gorman's question for

a brief moment, she replied, "If you walk

away now, there will be no hard feelings..."

Her gaze fixed on him intensely, she continued, “Trust me on this. Walk away now, and you'll have my thanks. Gorman, don't be so relentless. With everything you have, you could easily find someone far more suitable than me.”

A heavy silence fell for a moment before Gorman chuckled softly. "Linsey, why can't you see? You're the only one for me."

Linsey's response was a stunned silence. She stared at him, her face a mix of conflict and a faint glimmer of hope that he might yet reveal a sliver of decency.

A subtle fragrance filled the space between them.

Gorman felt turned on as he breathed in.

Aware that lingering was no longer an option, Gorman knew it was time to leave.
