Chapter 514
Chapter 514 I'm Really Sorry, Honey
As Linsey absorbed Collin's concerned questions, a sudden rush of sadness swelled inside her, causing her nose to tingle.
She bowed her head and let out a soft sniffle, unable to contain her emotions.
Why did the sound of Collin's voice suddenly make everything feel so emotional?
"I'm on my way to the hospital now," Linsey said softly into the phone as she walked towards the exit with Millie.
Millie, sensing the gravity of Linsey's conversation, remained quiet but offered steady support as she helped Linsey into the car.
On the other end, Collin was about to reply when his driver suddenly said, "Mr. Riley, we've hit a snag in traffic due to an accident ahead."
Dustin responded immediately. "Try a detour, even if it takes us a bit longer."
Linsey picked up parts of their conversation and quickly figured it out. "You're still in the next city, right?"
Collin clenched his jaw and responded softly, "Yes I just got the message that you sent to Dustin. I had asked
him to assist me with a project yesterday, and we both got tied up at work tonight. I'm really sorry, honey."
This cleared up a lot for Linsey.
While she had been confined in the storage room, she didn't want to trouble Collin or burden Dolores. So, she
reached out to Dustin instead
Now she realized that Dustin hadn't responded because he was preoccupied with Collin all along
Linsey never held Dustin or Collin accountable for the night's events.
She whispered reassuringly, "It's fine. I need to clear something up. I kept tonight's issues to myself because I didn't want to alarm you. You were far away in another city, unable to make it back swiftly. My plan was to fill you in once things had calmed down. I never imagined you both would end up at the same place.”
Regret washed over Collin. In hopes of selecting the perfect engagement ring, he had beckoned Dustin
Grester to assist him.
The timing was unfortunate, as Linsey had faced unexpected troubles.
To Collin, a ring was trivial in comparison to Linsey's well-being
"From now on, I promise to cut down on unnecessary trips from Grester. What matters most is staying by your side, Collin said.

Chapter 514 I'm Really Sorry, Honey
Moved by his words, Linsey smiled as she said, "You have commitments though, right? Tonight was a one-time incident, and it's already taken care of. Millie was a big help."
"Millie?" At the mention, Collin and Dustin looked at each other.
Dustin remembered Millie of the notable Burke family in Grester. "Millie from the Burke family,"
Acknowledging this, Collin said, “Understood. I'll make sure to express our gratitude to her appropriately."
Linsey assumed by this he meant sending Millie a token of appreciation.
That seemed appropriate.
As the conversation stretched on, Dustin chimed in, weary of being left out, "Look, could you maybe not tie up my phone the whole trip? We still have a long drive ahead. Am I just supposed to sit here doing nothing?"
What do you think?
