Chapter 1309:
“Linsey, I've prepared all your speech notes,” Lara announced.
The words had barely left her mouth when she caught sight of Collin, leaving her completely speechless. “You...
you two...”
Collin arched an eyebrow, his gaze shifting meaningfully to Linsey. “Your colleague seems curious about our
relationship. Don’t you think you should enlighten her?”
Linsey caught her lower lip between her teeth. “Lara, allowto introduce you. This is Collin Riley... my
husband.”
“What?!” Lara’s voice pitched higher than intended, and the speech notes slipped from her fingers, scattering
across the floor. “When on earth did you get married? How could | not know about this?”
Linsey ran a hand through her hair, clearly flustered. “It’s... complicated. | promise I'll explain everything later.”
She quickly knelt to gather the fallen papers, then turned back to Collin. “I need to head to the lounge now to
prepare for my presentation.”
As he heard Linsey openly acknowledge their marriage, Collin’s mood soared. “Of course. Go take care of what
you need to do.”

beca mask of cold calculation as he addressed his head of security. “What's the latest on the Felix
investigation?”
Previously, in his effort to defend Linsey’s honor, he had deliberately invested a substantial sum to acquire the
Wells Group's key projects, driving the company to the brink of financial ruin and potential bankruptcy.
Yet somehow, Felix had managed to orchestrate a remarkable turnaround in an impossibly short timeframe.
“We have the full picture now,” his lead bodyguard reported in hushed tones. “Kylee and Huntley combined their
resources, contributing several million to help his company survive the crisis.”
Collin’s brow furrowed deeply. “What was their motivation?”
“We discreetly apprehended Huntley earlier, and under questioning, he revealed that he'd previously worked
with the Wells Group and was aware of your wife's past relationship with Felix.”

The lead bodyguard continued, “His primary motive for assisting the Wells Group was to manipulate Felix into
causing a public spectacle at Kylee’s birthday celebration, thereby damaging your wife's reputation. The plan
was for you to becso disgusted with her that you'd file for divorce, clearing the way for Huntley to pursue
your wife while Kylee could make her move on you.”
A laugh escaped Collin’s lips, though it held no warmth whatsoever. His striking features remained arctic and
imperious.
“Mr. Riley,” the head bodyguard ventured carefully, “what are your instructions regarding this situation?”
