Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214 Can We Put

This Behind Us

“Collin, you can’t just shut me out like this!” Kylee murmured to herself.

She had come back to the country for one reason–she had crossed Gorman in the worst way imaginable.

The only person with enough power to stand up to him was Collin. He was her last chance at fixing this disaster.

If Collin turned his back on her now, she was finished.

Panic coiled in her chest, tightening with every second. She lunged forward, gripping the arm of Collin’s subordinate in the

front seat. “Call Collin. Right now!” Her voice shook with urgency.

The subordinate didn’t even blink. His tone stayed level, almost indifferent. “Miss Russell, if you have something to say, I

can pass it along to Mr. Riley.”

Kylee’s eyes widened, shock tightening her chest. “What’s that supposed to mean? Are you saying Collin’s shutting me out

for good? We’ve been friends for years! He wouldn’t just cut me off like this!”

But the subordinate didn’t so much as flinch. His tone remained flat, unwavering. “I’m just following Mr. Riley’s

instructions. If you refuse to cooperate, you’ll only make things harder for both of us.”

Frustration burned in her chest, but she bit back her anger.

This subordinate had been by Collin’s side for years. Crossing him would only slam the door shut on her last chance.

She drew in a slow, measured breath, forcing herself to keep her voice steady. “I understand.”

Kylee fell silent, forcing herself to stop protesting as the subordinate drove her to the hotel. But a sharp glint of malice

flickered in her eyes.

“This had to be Linsey’s doing. While I was away, that scheming bitch must have filled Collin’s head with lies. That’s why

he is shutting her out. Linsey, you’d better watch yourself,” Kylee thought bitterly as her fingers curled into fists.

The next morning, Linsey arrived at work like any other day. But the moment she stepped into the office, Coen was already striding toward her, irritation clear on his face. “Linsey, why are you so late today?”

She blinked, caught off guard. Late? This was the same time she always came in.

Before she could get a word in, Coen said impatiently, “Just put your things down and get to the reception room. Now. Miss Russell is waiting.”
