Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Do You Really Think I’m That…

Linsey froze for a second before reality hit her, and her cheeks flared with heat.

“Oh! Right! I’ll just step out, then. Call me when you’re ready for me to come back in,” she blurted, already turning c

heel.

But before she could take more than two steps, Collin’s voice stopped her. “Wait.”

She turned back, blinking in confusion.

Collin studied her for a moment, then let out a soft sigh. “I didn’t mean for you to leave. Come here and help me.”

The second the words left his lips, Linsey’s mind reeled back to the first night she had moved into the villa–when he asked her to help him undress for a bath, only to dismiss her right after.

Linsey hesitated, then blurted out, “Collin, you’re not going to get mad and kick me out again, are you?”

Collin’s brows lifted slightly. “Do you really think I’m that unpredictable?”

Collin hadn’t realized she saw him that way.

As far as he was concerned, he had always been calm and in control around her.

Linsey barely stopped herself from rolling her eyes. Of course, she thought.

But she didn’t voice it. Instead, she shook her head and moved past it. “No. Let me help you.”

She stepped forward, fingers brushing against Collin’s collar as she reached to unbutton his shirt.

Before she could, his hand closed around her wrist.

Warmth spread from his touch, making her pulse stutter.

Startled, she looked up–only to realize just how close they were, close enough that she could see the way his lashe

framed his eyes.

She had never noticed before. But for some reason, it struck her now–his eyelashes were unfairly thick.

Collin’s expression remained unreadable as he said, “I didn’t ask you to undress me. Just hold my clothes.”

Whether it was his bluntness or her own realization that she had been a little too eager, warmth crept up Linsey’s neck.

“Oh Okay,” She straightened, determined to act normal.

Her head was turned away, eyes shut tight, and her lashes quivered ever so slightly.

Collin’s lips curled into an amused smirk. “Linsey,” he called, his voice rich with amusement.

“Huh?” She startled, her eyes snapping open–only to realize he was already dressed.

Just as she was about to regain her composure, he suddenly grabbed her wrist and tugged her forward.

She barely had time to gasp before she stumbled straight into him.

Her hand braced against the back of his wheelchair, steadying herself as the space between them all but disappeared.

Before she could recover, Collin leaned in, his voice dipping into a low, teasing murmur.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t you say you wanted to see me try it on?” His breath tickled her ear. “If you really want a better look, you should get a little closer, don’t you think?”
