Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 432

Chapter 432 What Kind Of Woman Captured Your…

It wasn’t about anything else—just the sheer intensity of Collin’s expression.

For a moment, it felt as if he might mercilessly fling Carol aside without a second thought.

Jeffery’s pupils dilated with shock. Forcing himself to remain composed, he managed a faint smile. “Mr. Riley, please forgive Carol’s rudeness.”

Biting her lip, Carol couldn’t help but protest, “Even if you’re the founder of CR Corporation, isn’t this a bit excessive? A true gentleman wouldn’t treat a woman that way! I only wanted to interact with you normally. Let

go of me!”

She struggled to pull free, but it was futile.

Collin’s grip remained firm, his expression unreadable. His voice, however, was edged with a subtle warning. “I’m already married, Miss Lawson. I suggest you mind your behavior.”

Just like that, a wave of humiliation crashed over Carol. Her face burned, her eyes stinging with resentment. She turned to Jeffery, clutching his sleeve like a wounded child. “Jeffery…“–

Seeing his sister this way, Jeffery felt his heart soften. With a sigh, he spoke again, his tone gentler. “Mr. Riley, I truly apologize. Carol had no idea you were married. I’ll make sure to talk to her properly about this.”

As he spoke, he cast Collin a pleading glance.

Collin’s sharp gaze flickered. He suddenly recalled something–Carol was rumored to have a heart condition.

The partnership between CR Corporation and the Lawson Group was far too important to strain over a situation

like this.

With that in mind, he reluctantly loosened his grip and gave a curt nod. “Fine.”

The moment he let go, Carol huffed in frustration, stomped her foot, and stormed off without so much as a backward glance.

“Carol!” Jeffery called after her, but she didn’t stop.

Watching her disappear down the corridor, he sighed helplessly before turning back to Collin.

By now, the icy chill in Collin’s expression had softened.

“Carol has always been willful, but my parents and I have never been too harsh on her. She’s been in poor health since childhood,” Jeffery said, his eyes laced with a hint of sadness

Carol’s condition had been a constant source of worry for the Lawson family.

Over the years, Jeffery had done everything in his power to find a cure, hoping she could one day live without

restrictions.

Collin’s gaze steadied on him, his tone losing its earlier edge. “She’ll get better.”

Jeffery gave a small nod, then hesitated before glancing at Collin with newfound curiosity. “I’ve heard rumors that you’re married, Mr. Riley, but I never knew they were true. Now I can’t help but wonder–what kind of woman captured your heart?”

At the mention of Linsey, Collin’s entire demeanor shifted. The harshness in his eyes melted into something softer, a trace of warmth flickering across his usually stoic face.

“She’s amazing. And I love her deeply,” he said simply.

Jeffery blinked, taken aback by Collin’s straightforwardness.
