NovelApexChapter 1348:
Linsey nodded obediently. “I understand completely.”
Her sincere assurance allowed Gorman to finally relax somewhat.
He spoke in gentle tones. “Then wear mine instead. You really don’t need that jacket anymore.”
Whether it was Collin or sother man, Gorman absolutely wouldn't allow anyone to get too close to Linsey.
She belonged to him and him alone.
Gorman’s possessiveness surged dangerously, but given his carefully maintained gentlemanly image, he
couldn't afford to act too forcefully. Instead, he smoothly removed his own jacket and remarked casually, “Who
knows if that stranger has any contagious diseases? Wearing mine would be much safer.”
“I doubt it...” Linsey found herself recalling the mysterious man’s appearance. Apart from his physical disability,
he hadn't seemed unhealthy in the slightest. Furthermore, he had clearly been quite wealthy, and wealthy
people typically took excellent care of their health.
Gorman continued his gentle persuasion, “Apart from me, you shouldn't trust other men so readily. These days,
you simply can’t be too careful around strangers.”
Under his persistent coaxing, Linsey finally slipped on Gorman'’s jacket. “What should | do with this one?” Linsey

Gorman countered with his own question, “Did he ask you to return it?”
Linsey shook her head slowly. “He mentioned he doesn’t wear clothes that others have worn.”
This was exactly what Gorman had hoped to hear. “Then just toss it away. It's completely useless now anyway.”
With those words, he stepped out of the car with the umbrella and deliberately dropped the jacket into a nearby
trash bin. Grabbing a sturdy stick from the ground, he forcefully shoved the jacket deeper into the garbage, his
expression remaining coldly indifferent.
Only after the jacket had completely disappeared beneath layers of other trash did Gorman finally discard the
stick and turn back around, instantly resuming his gentle, caring demeanor.

Inside the restaurant, Linsey and Gorman found a comfortable table and settled in. Despite Gorman’s jacket
draped over her shoulders, Linsey still shivered from the cold dampness of her wet clothes clinging
uncomfortably to her skin.
Remembering that the restroom probably had a hand dryer, she pushed back her chair and announced, “I'm
going to the restroom to try drying my clothes. Go ahead and order for us.”
