Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 786:

The emotional torment radiated through her, her entire body throbbing with pain.

Finally, Linsey staggered away, caught a taxi, and headed back to her hotel alone.

The minute she entered her room, her phone immediately rang—it was Gorman.

“Linsey, where have you been? I’ve been looking everywhere for you.” There was a trace of worry in Gorman’s voice as he spoke.

Just then, Caylee emerged with a welcoming smile, ready to greet Linsey.

However, the perplexed and distant look on Linsey’s face made her halt mid-step, unsure of how to proceed.

It was apparent that something was wrong with Linsey.

Her hair was tousled, her eyes swollen and red, and her gaze distant. Clutching her phone tightly, Linsey looked downward. When she finally spoke, her voice was hoarse and almost unrecognizable. “I’m sorry. I’ve made it back to the hotel.” She compressed her lips, then added, “I’m just extremely exhausted, that’s all.”

Gorman waited a moment before responding in a forced calm tone, “Alright, I’m relieved you made it there safely.”

He paused, concern lacing his voice. “Please, try to rest, okay?”

“Okay,” Linsey murmured softly, then quickly hung up the phone.

“Linsey…” Caylee said tentatively.

Linsey forced a smile and said, “I’m fine. Please keep an eye on the kids. I need to take a shower.”

As Linsey retreated to her room, Caylee stood watching, her concern deepening.

Caylee was about to go check on the children in the next room when her phone buzzed.

A message from Gorman popped up.noveldrama

Caylee slipped into a corner to read the message more carefully.

Shock registered on her face as she read, her eyes widening.

How could Gorman consider such an action?

Trying to steady her racing heart, Caylee typed back quickly, “Mr. Green, I can’t do this…”

Almost immediately, Gorman responded with a terse threat. “If you refuse, remember, I can withdraw support for your grandmother’s medical care at any moment.”

Caylee’s face drained of color as she read Gorman’s message.

She clenched her teeth and wrung her hands.

After a few moments, Caylee took a deep breath to calm herself and then texted back, “I got it.”

She had reached the door of the guest bedroom when it swung open from within, revealing two small figures in front of her.

“Caylee, we thought we just heard Mommy’s voice,” Zenia said.

Zander saw the purse by the entryway and pointed at it, saying, “Look, that’s Mommy’s purse. She’s back!”
