Marrying A Secret Zillionaire, Happy Ever After

Chapter 456 There’s No

Need To Get Defensive

As Carol spoke, her intense gaze locked onto Linsey, causing a twinge of discomfort in Linsey

Enefly diverting her gaze, Linsey composed herself and then asked, “Miss Lawson, did you come here today talk about design?”

With a casual air, Carol responded, “Yes, that’s why I’m here. However, I find it hard to concentrate without my favorite coffee in hand.”

Reclining with a mixture of playfulness and sincerity, she added, “You lead the Fashion Design Department here at CR Corporation; accommodating a simple client preference should be within your capabilities, right?”

Within moments, Linsey understood that Carol was provoking her.

Such hostility was not new to Linsey, years of similar challenges had honed her senses.

Her carefree days were over, replaced by a keen awareness of people’s intentions toward her.

Linsey had no doubts about Carol’s feelings toward her..

The tension had been evident since their encounter at the Lawson family’s event.

This understanding brought Linsey a sense of relief. A small smile played on her lips as she maintained her composure. “As you’ve pointed out, my role is to create designs for my clients. Handling errands, however, falls under the expertise of professionals.”

Before Carol could respond, Linsey was already reaching for her phone. “Since you’re used to luxury, you might not know about the many services available for errands. I’d be happy to connect you with one.”

Carol’s face hardened, her smile turning into a grimace. “I was under the impression that you would take care of a simple request like this personally.”

Without pausing, Linsey responded confidently, “Wouldn’t doing that just mean throwing away my effort? You’ve approached me because you believe in my talent. Why should I bother myself with insignificant tasks?”

Carol examined Linsey closely, noticing the quiet certainty that radiated from her calm demeanor.

She tightened her jaw, startled by Linsey’s complete lack of nervousness around someone of her influence. Others would have scrambled eagerly to fulfill her wishes without a second thought.

Yet Linsey acted as if the Lawson family held no power over her.

This woman had courage unlike any she had seen before.

Carol briefly considered this, and a cunning thought began forming in her mind.

It occurred to her that CR Corporation’s staff were probably unaware Linsey was married to their founder.

Did Linsey herself even know about this connection?
