NovelApexChapter 1365:
Linsey’s head shot up, startled, but the moment she recognized him, her shoulders eased. She hurried over. “Are
you alright?”
Gorman'’s gaze stayed on the half-packed bag.
“You're going back home?” His voice was quiet, but his usually gentle features were shadowed with something
harder.
She didn’t try to soften the truth. “Yes.”
“And me?” His brows drew together, his gaze holding hers. “If you leave, what happens to me?”
The question caught her off guard. In his tone, she heard more than simple curiosity—an unspoken accusation,
as if she were abandoning him. That was absurd—they had known each other for only a handful of days. Then it

Wasn't that what he wanted? Why was he upset?
Her confusion was genuine.

He drew in a slow breath, forcing down his true emotions, and put on a show of sadness as he asked, “Why can’t
you stay just a little longer?”
His mood had been perfectly fine. His men had informed him that Collin was done with his work and heading
home.
With his greatest rival in love gone, Gorman thought he could finally concentrate on building something with
Linsey.
Yet he hadn't expected her to pack her bags and leave on the exact sday as Collin.
