Chapter 575
Chapter 575 I Owe You Greatly
The moment Linsey finished her statement, the leader's hand clamped around her neck.
Linsey gasped for air, struggling to breathe.
Looking into the leader's eyes, she saw his fury and humiliation-he had taken her words as a threat.
Enraged, the leader said, "You think you can scare us? We'll have our fun with you, then leave your body where no one will find it. Who will stop us then?"
His words provoked the other members. "You're going to regret your words," they taunted.
As they advanced, terror flashed in Linsey's eyes.
She thought desperately of Collin.
Suddenly, the sound of the door breaking open resounded through the room.
"Linsey!"
Linsey's eyes, once dazed, slowly started to regain focus.
As her senses returned, the only sound that reached her ears was the chaos of fighting and shouting surrounding her.
Amid the noise, the loudest sound was the screams of the men.
Someone then scooped her up.
Subconsciously, Linsey murmured, "Collin?"
The person carrying her tensed for
moment. From above, a familiar voice reassured her. "Linsey, it's me."
Confused, Linsey looked up to see Gorman's concerned face.noveldrama
"Gorman?" she uttered in disbelief. "How come it's you?"
With a fleeting sadness in his gaze, Gorman replied, "I was at your office earlier. When your colleagues mentioned they couldn't contact you, I feared something was wrong. I sent people to find you, and that led me
here..."
He paused to survey the men, now battered and bruised, a shadow crossing his features.
"Uh, Gorman." Linsey's voice was faint.
Looking down with unexpected tenderness, Gorman asked, "Are you okay? Did they hurt you?"

A trace of discomfort crossed Linsey's pale face. "Let me down, I can stand on my own," she pressed.
Gorman hesitated, then complied without further objection, carefully setting Linsey on her feet.
"Please, stop! We admit our mistake!" Previously arrogant, the men now knelt, pleading for mercy. They turned their eyes to Linsey. "We realize our error. Please forgive us!"
Their cries escalated as they saw Gorman, standing tall beside Linsey, mistaking him for the founder of the CR
Corporation.
"We won't do it again! It was Carol Lawson who forced us! We never intended to hurt your wife!" they cried
out.
Linsey stood frozen, sorrow returning to her gaze.
Gorman, puzzled, asked, "Why would you think I'm her husband?"
Linsey quickly grasped the misunderstanding. The men must have believed that
the person who came to rescue her was the founder of the CR Corporation.
Earlier, Carol had mentioned that Linsey's husband was the founder of CR Corporation, so it was only natural that the men assumed Gorman, arriving with so many people, was him.
Yet Linsey had no desire to discuss the founder of CR Corporation now.
Interrupting the men's further explanations, Linsey turned to Gorman. "Thank you for everything today, Gorman. I owe you greatly. I need to go now."
She grabbed her phone, which Alexa had discarded earlier, and hastened away. Gorman, caught off guard, called after her, "Linsey!"
