Chapter 194 Just You Wait, Linsey
What was it about Linsey that captivated Collin so? How had she managed to steal his heart in such a short span of time?
Kylee’s fists clenched, her nails digging painfully into her palms.
If that was how it was going to be, she would find a way to destroy Collin’s illusions about Linsey and drive her away from
him forever.
“Just you wait, Linsey,” she hissed under her breath.
Her breath hitched with barely suppressed fury, her eyes narrowed with resentment.
Upon returning to Vista Villa, Collin noticed Linsey’s absence from their bedroom.
He inquired about her whereabouts and learned from a servant that Linsey had retired to the study after dinner and hadn’t
been seen since.
Recalling Linsey’s unusual quietness during dinner, Collin felt a pang of concern. Without hesitation, he turned his wheelchair and headed towards the study.
He pushed open the study door and found Linsey fast asleep, her head resting on the desk.
A tender smile touched Collin’s lips as he gazed at her sleeping form.
He wheeled himself closer. As he was about to wake her and suggest she retire to the bedroom, his design sketches scattered across the desk.
Surprise flickered in his eyes.
He knew Linsey dabbled in design, but this was the first time he had seen her creations firsthand.

No wonder Anthea had sung Linsey’s praises. The sketches were impressive; Linsey clearly possessed a natural talent for
design.
Lost in thought, Collin was startled when Linsey suddenly stirred. Sensing a presence, she abruptly opened her eyes.
Linsey blinked, surprised by Collin’s perceptiveness. “I know,” she replied softly, nodding slightly.
“Right,” she said, quickly gathering the drafts scattered across the desk. “I’ll go to bed now.”
Collin chuckled, amused by her flustered movements. “Why the rush to leave? Do you think I’m going to do something to you?” he teased.
“No!” Linsey blurted out, her cheeks flaming red.
She snuck a quick glance at him, noticing the playful smirk on his lips, which only intensified her blush.
“I was just worried you might be upset with me for getting so caught up in my work,” she explained, trying to regain her
composure.
Collin raised an eyebrow. “Not at all,” he assured her. “I know how passionate you are about your work.”
He glanced at the design drafts again. “Besides,” he added sincerely, “your designs are excellent. Better than many experienced designers I’ve seen.”
Linsey blushed at the compliment. “Oh, come on,” she said, flustered. “I’m not that good. You’re exaggerating.”
