Gorman. He had caught a string of events on the security cameras. The footage even captured Collin from Riley
Group.

Fearful of the possible fallout, the manager had rushed straight to the scene.
While he was still weighing his options, Collin surprised everyone by turning to Gorman. “I saved your girlfriend.”
Gorman’s shock was obvious as he stared Collin up and down. “What?” A moment later, disbelief colored his
voice. “You?” He had always believed he understood Collin well. The thought of Collin doing anyone a favor was
nearly unthinkable.
