Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389 I Know You Better Than You think

Collin had initially thought Linsey was simply going back to pack a few things for him.

But to his surprise, she had gone out of her way to make him chicken soup.

The idea of Linsey hurting herself because of him made him feel uneasy.

She had only just recovered from the effects of some harmful medication, and her palm had been cut. Her body was still in the process of healing.

And now this.

Linsey steadied herself and spoke softly. “You can’t see it like that. When you care about someone, you want to do things for them. I care about you, so I wanted to help however I could. I couldn’t just sit here and do nothing, could I?”

Collin couldn’t help but smile at her words. “You don’t get it. I actually wish you’d be a little lazier and just do nothing for once. After all, even if you couldn’t do anything, I’m more than capable of taking care of you.”

“No way, I’m not having that!” Linsey huffed, pulling her hand away and starting to ladle the soup into the bowl. “Let me tell you, I’m aiming to become a world–renowned designer. I’m definitely not someone who sits around doing nothing. Who knows, maybe I’ll end up taking care of you one day.”

As Linsey poured the delicious chicken soup, the room quickly filled with its savory aroma.

“Enjoy it while it’s hot,” she said with a smile.

Collin reached for the bowl but didn’t drink from it immediately. Instead, he set it down on the table next to

him.

“It’s too hot. I’ll wait for it to cool a bit,” he said.

Then, he gently pulled her down beside him, his gaze falling on the burn on her hand.

“It’s still a bit swollen. Are you sure you applied the ointment?” Collin frowned, suspicion flickering in his eyes.

Linsey gave a soft smile. “Of course, a maid helped me with it.”

Collin paused for a moment, then said, “Your burn looks pretty bad. You need something that’ll do more than just ease the pain. It needs to reduce the swelling, too. The ointment you have at home is probably meant for minor burns.”

“It’s not that bad,” Linsey mumbled, brushing it off.

Collin didn’t seem to care about her protests. He called to the assistant standing by the door. “Go to the pharmacy and get burn ointment from the doctor. Tell them it’s red, swollen, and stinging.”

The assistant nodded. “I’m on it, Mr. Riley.”

Linsey blinked, slightly surprised. “How did you know it stings?”

Collin raised an eyebrow and gently brushed her brow with his thumb. “Your brow only furrows when you’re in

pain.”

Linsey stared at him, astonished. “How is that even possible?”

“Don’t believe me?” Collin teased. “Whether you believe it or not, I know you better than you think.”
