Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 332 I've Come To Apologize To You, Linsey

Collin's face clouded over, a shadow of displeasure etching his features sharply.

"What the hell is Fernanda doing here?" he growled, his voice tinged with annoyance.

The Riley family were not frequent visitors; their appearances were as rare as a blue moon. So, the timing of this visit puzzled him.

Given that Huntley caused such chaos and ended up behind bars, it made sense for Fernanda to feel even more resentment

toward him.

She must be up to no good this time.

Collin was quick to decide, his voice firm and unwavering. "Send her away. We won't see her today," he commanded.

Josh paused, his expression uneasy, before he added a crucial piece of information, "Sir, it appears she has come to speak

about your grandmother.”

At the mention of Ivy, Collin's scowl deepened, his brow furrowing in concern. He hesitated, visibly torn.

Linsey, observing his troubled expression, remembered that Ivy had been overseas receiving medical treatment for several

years.

"Did something happen to Ivy?" Linsey's voice broke through the tense silence, laced with genuine worry. "Perhaps we

should let Fernanda in and hear what she has to say."

With a soothing tone, Linsey tried to alleviate his fears. "Don't worry. With all of us here, she wouldn't dare cause any

mischief," she assured him, her eyes locking with his in a silent promise of support.

She knew all too well the lingering distrust Collin harbored towards Fernanda and Huntley, a remnant of a bitter past where they had set her up.

With a tender squeeze of her hand, Collin met her gaze. "Thank you, Linsey."

Linsey offered a warm smile, her voice gentle. "Your grandma is my family too. I truly care about her well-being."

Collin's features softened visibly at her heartfelt words. He nodded slowly, then turned toward Josh. "Let Fernanda in."

It wasn't long before Fernanda showed up, something clutched in her hands.

Linsey couldn't help but notice the shift in Fernanda's demeanor; her usual haughtiness had melted away, replaced by a humble, almost pleading posture.

"Collin, Linsey, you're still at breakfast? I hope I'm not intruding?" Fernanda offered them a tentative smile, her voice laced with caution.

Linsey remained silent, observing. Collin, however, responded with cool detachment, "Fernanda, let's cut to the chase."

Chapter 332 I've Come To Apologize To You, Linsey

Fernanda's attempt at warmth failed, her smile twisting into a strained grimace as she fought to maintain her composure.

With a forced cheerfulness, she finally spoke. “Actually, I've come to apologize to you, Linsey."

Linsey blinked in surprise, her gaze shifting to Fernanda with a mix of confusion and curiosity.

Apologize? That was the last thing she had expected.

Fernanda went on, her voice thick with earnest emotion, "I failed as a mother, and my son's actions are a testament to that

failure. Now that he's behind bars, it might just be the opportunity he needs to change his course."

She paused for a moment, her eyes searching Linsey's face as she presented the gift she had brought with her.

"Linsey, I brought you something," she said, her tone hopeful. "I'm truly here to apologize, and I sincerely hope you'll accept this as a token of my remorse."

Linsey's response was swift and unwavering. "No, thank

It had been a while since the incident, and Fernanda's sudden apology now seemed like nothing more than a belated attempt to ease her own conscience.

If Fernanda hadn't brought it up, Linsey might have buried the memory in the farthest corners of her mind.

Unfazed, Fernanda smiled warmly and unveiled her gift. "This is the latest model from a renowned designer," she remarked, pulling the sleek handbag from her tote. "I'm sure it will suit your taste."

She knew well that such luxury items were the envy of many, and she hoped the allure of the handbag would soften Linsey's resolve.

Knowing she was an orphan with humble beginnings, Fernanda assumed Linsey had never had the luxury of owning such a fine piece.noveldrama

Perhaps, she thought disdainfully, this gift would be a first for her.

As expected, Linsey's eyes widened slightly at the sight of the designer handbag,

a flicker of surprise crossing her features.
