Anthea’s frown deepened, her voice icy as she rebuked Cynthia. “This creation is Linsey’s masterpiece. If I’m going to have

someone help me try it on, it better be her. Your involvement lacks the intimate knowledge of its nuances. Just think about the mess it would cause if handled the wrong way.”

Her words sliced through the air, leaving Cynthia momentarily stunned, her expression crumpling into an uncomfortable

mix of surprise and embarrassment.

Her thoughts softened as she observed Linsey carefully adjusting her dress, her movements delicate and precise.

Anthea had been a lifelong friend of Collin’s mother and had always held a maternal affection for Collin, almost considering him a son.

She had resigned herself to the idea of him remaining solitary for life, yet here he was, having found Linsey, a truly exceptional woman.

This revelation had stirred a protective instinct in Anthea.

What’s her role here then? Watch yourself. Don’t you fear that one day I might prefer collaborating with her over you?”
