“Stop!”

Collin’s assistant’s commanding voice sliced through the tumult as he rushed in, with a formidable team of bodyguards forming a protective circle around Linsey and Collin.

The crowd of fans was utterly shocked by the sudden, dramatic scene unfolding before them.

One by one, they froze in fear, stopping abruptly, too scared to make a rash move.

Allie gaped in disbelief at what was happening.

“What’s going on here? Wasn’t it rumored that Collin, Linsey’s husband, was scorned by the Riley family and nothing more than a worthless man? How does he command such a large following?” she muttered under her breath.

Before she could fully grasp the situation, others urgently dragged her away, scrambling for safety.

“Allie, we need to run! They’ve brought a crowd—we can’t take them on!”

Allie had no choice but to join the fleeing masses, her heart pounding with panic.

Seeing this, Collin let out a relieved breath. He gently released Linsey and quickly checked on her.

“Linsey, are you alright? Did anyone hurt you?”

Linsey, tears staining her cheeks, got up from where she had been shielded in Collin’s arms. Noticing his tousled appearance, she felt a pang of sorrow.

“I’m okay. You shielded me through it all. But you took so many blows—aren’t you in pain?” she responded.

Collin offered a faint smile, his relief evident as he saw her unscathed.

“Protecting you is what matters to me. I’m a man; things like this don’t bother me much. You’re my wife. I couldn’t just stand by and watch you get hurt. That wouldn’t make me much of a husband.”

Linsey’s eyes welled up with tears of guilt.

She lowered her gaze and whispered, “Collin, I’m so sorry. I’ve been keeping secrets from you. Those people were after me. I thought I could manage on my own, but it escalated beyond what I anticipated, and now you’re injured because of me. This is all my fault.”

Collin shook his head gently, his hand softly caressing Linsey’s cheek. “You’re not to blame here. You are the victim. Don’t carry the burden of others’ actions.” He paused briefly, then continued, “You should head back in the car. I’ll send some men with you to ensure your safety. I’m here for you, so don’t worry.”

Linsey frowned, her hand instinctively reaching out to grasp Collin’s arm.

“Won’t you come back with me?”

Collin winced in pain at her touch but regained his composure quickly.

In a calm, steady tone, he replied, “You’re in trouble. Those people intend to harm you. I need to secure your safety first before I can relax. We must resolve this quickly. Now that they’ve escalated things, I won’t let them get away with hurting you.”

“But…” Linsey began to object, but Collin took her hand gently.

Their fingers intertwined, and the warmth from his touch spread through her skin, warming her heart.

“That’s enough, Linsey. Trust me to handle this, okay?” Collin’s gaze captured hers, filled with deep tenderness and unwavering resolve.

Linsey bit her lip, her mind swirling with thoughts.

She did trust Collin.

With the situation already out of hand, any further delays would only complicate things further. It made sense to heed his advice for now.
