Chapter 1242:
The truth was, Ivy had done exactly that, but Linsey had turned her down flat.
Yet, if she had known he was this much trouble, she wouldn't have refused so quickly. After all, how wonderful it
would be to live luxuriously with a five-million-dollar check in her pocket.
Linsey had originally planned to tell him exactly that, but wisdom prevailed as she realized he would
undoubtedly throw another tantrum upon hearing it. To spare her eardrums from another assault, she simply
nodded along with his assumption.
Collin regarded her with genuine bewilderment before pressing further. “Why?” Previously, Ivy had called him

But the moment he saw it was her, Collin’s head snapped back down, his expression souring as he turned the
pages with such violent force it seemed he might rip the book to shreds.
Linsey caught the aggressive rustling sound and glanced over, only to notice the book clutched in his hands bore
the title “The Art of Strategy for Men in a Relationship—Patience Above All.”
Confusion clouded Linsey’s features as her brows furrowed, but she remained silent, turning toward the
bathroom for a much-needed shower.
