The following morning, Linsey sat at the dining table, listlessly picking at her breakfast. She chewed each bite endlessly without swallowing, her lack of appetite evident.

Collin watched her silently for a few moments before finally asking, “What’s the matter?”

Linsey’s thoughts were interrupted, and she offered him a weak smile. “It’s nothing,” she replied.

In truth, her mind was still consumed by the events at the orphanage. But since Collin had assured her he would take care of it, she didn’t want to pester him further.

Collin noticed the faint shadows under her eyes and surmised that she hadn’t slept well.

He sighed softly. “You should try to eat something. If you don’t like what they’ve made, tell the staff, and they’ll prepare something different.”

Linsey shook her head quickly. “This is fine, really. Don’t bother them.”

Collin smiled faintly. She was always so considerate of others, putting their needs before her own.

Linsey pushed the worries from her mind and tried to concentrate on her breakfast.

A short while later, her phone rang. It was Ella.

When Linsey saw who was calling, her heart pounded in her chest. Were those men back to cause more problems?

She quickly answered the phone, her voice filled with worry. “Ella, what’s wrong?”

“Linsey,” Ella said. “We have visitors.”

Linsey’s heart raced, and she jumped to her feet. “Don’t worry, I’ll be right there.”

Noticing her distress, Collin immediately put down his fork, wiped his hands with a napkin, and prepared to go with her.

Dustin had assured him last night that the situation was resolved.

Was there still trouble?

Collin frowned.

Ella was taken aback and laughed. “Linsey, it’s alright! They didn’t come to cause any trouble. They’re here to apologize. That’s why I called.”

Linsey froze, surprised. “‘Apologize?” she repeated.

So they weren’t there to cause problems, but to apologize?

Had the problem already been taken care of?

Linsey instinctively looked at Collin, her mind whirling.

Just then, a man’s voice came on the phone.

“Mrs. Riley? This is Dustin Wade. I want to sincerely apologize for the trouble we caused earlier. That’s why I’ve come to the orphanage today to make amends. I understand you were raised here and have a strong connection to this place. I was wondering if you might have some time to stop by?”

The news of Dustin’s personal visit to the orphanage took Linsey completely by surprise. For a fleeting moment, she couldn’t shake off the suspicion that he might have an ulterior motive.

However, her worry for the orphanage and Ella overshadowed her doubts. After a moment of contemplation, she responded, “Okay, I’ll be right there.”

Ending the call, Linsey turned to Collin. “I have to go to the orphanage,” she informed him.

Collin nodded calmly. “No need to rush. Finish your breakfast. Making Dustin wait a bit won’t hurt him.”

Linsey blinked, a flicker of surprise crossing her face. “How did you know Dustin went there himself?” she inquired.
