Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 398

Chapter 398 I Was Just Passing By

Flavia jumped, her face paling instantly as panic set in.

When she recognized the man in front of her as Collin’s assistant, a wave of panic washed over her.

She couldn’t bring herself to meet his eyes, her gaze darting nervously to the floor. “I… I was just passing by.”

Her voice barely above a whisper, her head bowed in a defensive posture.

The weight of her words felt too light to be believable, even to her. The thought of getting caught now, with everything that had transpired, made her stomach churn.

The looming presence of Collin’s trust in Linsey only deepened her unease.

Flavia’s mind raced, her desire to flee growing stronger by the second.

“Please, I need to get through. I have other patients to attend to,” she said, her voice wavering as she tried to maintain a sense of calm.

The assistant’s gaze sharpened, a sense of unease creeping over him. Something wasn’t quite right.

With Flavia’s mask covering most of her face, he didn’t immediately recognize her as the same nurse who had blocked Linsey outside Collin’s ward earlier that day.

“You’ve been acting strangely,” he said, his voice stern. “What exactly are you doing here?”

His tone grew more intense, and his posture remained firm as he stood in her way, unwilling to let her go without an explanation.

Flavia flinched at his demanding tone, her body stiffening in fear. Her face flushed with panic, and her eyes welled up, betraying her growing distress.

“Why are you treating me like this? I was just walking by!” Flavia protested, quickly adopting a victimized tone. She wasted no time in playing the innocent card, hoping to deflect suspicion.

Not far off, Linsey and Collin heard the raised voices and approached to see what was happening.

“What’s going on?” Linsey asked, her eyes scanning the scene.

The assistant didn’t break his intense gaze from Flavia. “Mr. Riley, Mrs. Riley, I noticed this woman acting unusually, almost as if she were eavesdropping or watching us.”

Flavia snapped back, her voice sharp, “I was not! You’re making things up!”

Linsey took a moment to study Flavia’s face, and as soon as their eyes met, she recognized the nurse from

earlier.

“It’s her! The nurse who gave me the medication from the pharmacy earlier!” Linsey exclaimed, pointing at

Flavia.

As soon as Collin heard this, his face hardened, a look of menace washing over him.

Flavia, realizing she was in danger, quickly tried to make her escape.

But the assistant was quicker, grabbing her wrist and stopping her in her tracks.

“So, it was you who tried to harm Mrs. Riley!” he snapped, his grip tightening.

In one swift motion, he ripped Flavia’s mask off, revealing her face.
