Chapter 586 I Need To See
You, Linsey
A heavy silence hung on the line, thick with tension.
Though Linsey was desperate to end the call, the thought of Myla possibly being cornered by Collin made her resist the urge.
"If calling you Collin doesn't provoke a response, perhaps I should address you as the mysterious founder of CR Corporation instead?"
At once, a shaky breath escaped through the speaker, tense and unmistakably familiar.
It felt odd; she had barely spent a year truly knowing Collin.
Yet, his subtle breaths, pauses, and silences were etched in her memory, clear as day.
Right then, Linsey knew without a doubt that Collin was silently listening on the other side.
A rush of emotion welled inside her chest, tightening her throat painfully.
She tried to speak, but found herself unable to make a sound.

She struggled against her own silence, feeling choked by what she couldn't express.
After an unbearably long pause, Collin's low, strained voice broke through. "Baby."
Hearing that endearment instantly reignited Linsey's anger, and she retorted coldly, "Don't call me that."noveldrama
Even uttering those words drained Linsey, leaving her nearly breathless.
Fighting tears, she managed to speak, her voice trembling with suppressed pain. "Tell me, Collin, why exactly did you visit the Lawson family? Why did you threaten Myla? I'm warning you-"
Collin cut her off, saying firmly, "Linsey, I would never intentionally hurt you. The only reason I visited the Lawson family was to ask Carol about your whereabouts."
He paused, breathing deeply, then softly yet deliberately added, "I'm genuinely concerned about you."
Though her instincts screamed to say something cutting, Linsey held back, mindful that Collin remained with the Lawsons, capable of harming Myla at any moment.
"I'm perfectly fine, Collin. Your concern isn't needed. Just leave Myla's house right now."
However, Collin didn't comply. "I need to see you, Linsey."
Linsey clutched the phone tightly, her voice resolute as she said, "I have no interest in seeing you."
"Then I'll stay right here and wait until you do," Collin replied calmly, his voice stubborn and unyielding.

Chapter 586 I Need To See You, Linsey
"You!" Linsey was furious.
He was clearly using emotional blackmail to corner her.
"Linsey, if you just give me the chance, I promise I'll clear things up," Collin continued, his tone earnest.
Without waiting for her reply, Collin ended the call abruptly, leaving Linsey stunned by the quiet click.
Staring numbly at the disconnected phone, Linsey felt her emotions spiral out of control once more.
What exactly was Collin planning?
Though every fiber of her being resisted, she found herself hurriedly changing out of her hospital attire, preparing to rush over to the Lawson family's house.
Carol's cruelty had left her injured and shaken-Linsey would never forgive her.
Yet Myla had done nothing to deserve Collin's threats, and Linsey couldn't bear the thought of anyone suffering
because of her.
Fully dressed and determined, Linsey moved toward the door.
At precisely that moment, Gorman entered the room, dinner tray in hand, accompanied by Danny.
Gorman's steps faltered as he noticed Linsey in her outdoor clothing. "Linsey, where are you heading?"
Disapproval clouded Gorman's face immediately. "The doctor clearly stated you're not fully healed yet. You really need to stay here under observation for at least a couple more days."
