Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 534

Chapter 534 And Why Exactly Would I Help You

Jeffery?

Linsey’s voice was laced with pure confusion. “How did you get my number?”

Jeffery let out a smug chuckle, laced with sarcasm. “Who in town wouldn’t have the contact details of the great

designer Linsey?”

Linsey’s brows furrowed, her tone turning ice–cold. “Mr. Lawson, what do you want from me?”

His blunt demand to meet, paired with that arrogant tone, made his intentions unclear.

She hadn’t forgotten his behavior at Carol’s birthday party when he had tried to intimidate her with a five- million–dollar check. That alone was enough for her to have zero patience for him.

“Linsey, I heard you haven’t been to the office these past few days. Are you just avoiding me?”

His presumptuous words sent a spark

of

irritation through her.

“This is ridiculous. Do you seriously not understand why I’ve been on leave?” She let out a sharp laugh. “Thanks to your dear sister, I’ve sprained both my hand and foot. And if that wasn’t enough, she stomped on my already injured hand, leaving it a bloody mess. I can barely hold a fork, yet here you are, acting like my absence is some personal slight against you. It’s laughable.”

“Linsey…” Jeffery faltered, momentarily at a loss.

Linsey didn’t give him a chance to recover. “Jeffery, I’m not your employee, nor am I your family’s servant. So don’t talk to me like you have any authority over me. You might be the privileged eldest son of the Lawson family, but that doesn’t mean you can order everyone around.”

Jeffery seethed with rage at her words.

Even through the phone, Linsey could sense his barely restrained anger. She waited a few seconds before calmly saying, “If you have nothing else to say, I’ll hang up now.”

“Wait,” Jeffery cut in quickly.

Linsey arched a brow, amused.

For someone as arrogant as Jeffery to call her, he must have had something important to say, or rather, something he wanted from her.

After a brief pause, his voice came heavy with forced restraint. “Linsey, I don’t know what kind of relationship you have with the founder of CR Corporation, and frankly, I don’t care. I’m calling because I need you to convince him to reverse the decision to cancel our partnership.”

Chapter 534 And Why Exactly Would I Help You

Linsey’s eyes narrowed slightly in surprise.

She wasn’t shocked that Jeffery wanted to salvage the deal–given Lawson Group’s current crisis, losing CR Corporation’s support only worsened the situation.

What surprised her was that he was asking her for help.

It didn’t take long to figure out why.

Jeffery also believed she had ties to CR Corporation’s founder.

Linsey nearly laughed out loud at its absurdity. Why did everyone assume she had some connection to him?
