Flanking him was a group of tall, stern-faced bodyguards, their formidable appearance underscoring his importance.

Joanna’s eyes narrowed, her gaze flicking between Linsey and Collin with a simmering blend of irritation and incredulity.

She had craftily orchestrated Linsey’s fall earlier, aiming to disgrace her publicly.

Her phone was already poised to capture the humiliation, the footage guaranteed to make waves in online ridicule.

Yet, Joanna hadn’t anticipated an intervention, especially not from a strikingly handsome man bound to a wheelchair.

Who indeed was this man who had so effortlessly derailed her plans? When Joanna first caught sight of Collin, his striking features momentarily captivated her.

Yet, as her eyes drifted down to the wheelchair beneath him, her initial admiration soured.

Good looks wouldn’t change the fact that he was a worthless cripple. What was the point of a handsome face if he couldn’t even stand on his own damn legs?

Her frustration boiling over, Joanna’s voice cracked with venom as she confronted him. “Who are you? What right do you have to meddle in this?”

Collin responded with a chilling, low chuckle, his tone laced with menace as he retorted, “And who might you be to question me? What gives you the right to treat Linsey like this?”

His presence, though seated, seemed to expand, filling the space with an unsettling authority that made the others shift uncomfortably. Joanna, taken aback by the assertive undertone in Collin’s voice, paused, her confidence faltering. She gathered herself quickly, her voice sharp as she declared, “Oh, Linsey knows exactly what she’s guilty of! She put an innocent person in jail, and all we want is justice for the one who truly deserves it!”

Meanwhile, Marisol, who had been observing the exchange from a distance, felt a shiver of apprehension. Something about Collin hinted at depths unexplored and intentions masked.

Despite this, the Wells family was not known for backing down without a fight.

With a flick of her head, Marisol’s gaze turned icy, her tone laced with barely concealed disdain. “I’d advise you to leave while you can. I’m from the Wells family. Cross us, and you’ll face consequences far beyond your reckoning.”

At her warning, a sly grin crept across Collin’s lips. He stood unflustered, his response smooth as silk. “Ah, the Wells family. It seems Felix’s lessons fell short. His family still wields their power so carelessly.”

Marisol’s complexion drained at his retort. Her voice trembled slightly, betraying her shock. “Who… who exactly are you?”

Collin’s stern façade softened for a fleeting moment as he turned to Linsey, gently clasping her hand. His voice carried a weight of unwavering certainty. “I am Linsey’s husband, Collin Riley.”

Marisol’s eyes stretched wide, a mix of shock and realization dawning on her. “You… you’re Collin Riley?”

The disabled son of the esteemed Riley family—Collin himself! So it turned out Linsey’s husband was none other than him! He was the mastermind behind everything!

Beside her, Joanna’s expression mirrored Marisol’s astonishment. Joanna hardly believed that the man before her eyes was part of the Riley family.

The Riley family were known for their formidable influence, well beyond their wildest reach.

But wasn’t Collin just the family’s discarded trash, a name with no weight and no power?
