Chapter 1228:
Collin’s face stayed impassive as he asked, “What did you find?”
The moment Collin answered, his subordinate wasted no tdelivering the report. “The bartender said that
while Mrs. Riley was drunk, she blurted out that she caught Felix and Joanna cheating at that sashimi place. After
she confronted Felix, he didn't even try to apologize. Instead, he and Joanna shamelessly moved into the condo
she bought and threw her out.”
Collin’s brow creased as he took in the news. It dawned on him then why Linsey had been so vocal earlier, calling
Felix every nin the book after having too much to drink.
Collin found comfort in this revelation. Seeing Linsey finally recognize Felix’s true colors and leave him behind
gave Collin hope. Maybe, after all that heartbreak, she would never look back.
Gradually, the tension in his face eased.
Then cthe inevitable question from his subordinate. “What's the plan now, Mr. Riley?”
At that, Collin arched an eyebrow and answered, his voice cold and unyielding. “We hit back. Whatever they did
to Linsey, we make them pay a hundred times over.”
Although Collin was secretly glad that Felix’s betrayal had driven Linsey closer to him, he still wouldn't let
anyone treat her like garbage.
“I'll get right on it,” the subordinate replied without missing a beat.
Early the next morning, Linsey was deep in sleep when her phone blared on the nightstand, yanking her from her

sleep, she managed to sound polite. “Hello? Who is this?”
She barely finished her greeting before a furious yell exploded through the speaker. “Linsey! You bitch!”
The words hit Linsey like a slap, and she quickly pulled the phone away, rubbing her ringing ear. As soon as
Linsey realized Felix's nflashed on her screen, any trace of sleepiness disappeared.
“You goddamn bastard!” No longer buried under the blankets, Linsey pushed herself upright and let her anger
loose. “After cheating onand moving into the condo I paid for, you actually have the nerve to call and throw
insults? Do you honestly believe I'm that easy to walk over?”

Her temper only grew hotter as the seconds ticked by, and the insults just poured out.
Felix, having spent years in a relationship with the quiet and accommodating Linsey, hardly recognized the
person on the other end. For a moment, her outburst left him completely at a loss for words. Silence stretched
between them until Linsey’s need to breathe gave him a window to jump in, his voice sharp with outrage. “If you
hadn’t destroyed all my business deals, do you think I'd be calling at the crack of dawn just to yell at you?”
