Linsey shivered slightly, a playful irritation in her tone as she nudged Collin with her elbow. “Alright, let go of me. I really need to get going.” After a brief pause, she decided to throw in a serious threat. “If you don’t stop, I might just start sleeping in the guest room.” This man was getting clingier by the day.

Sure enough, the moment those words left her mouth, Collin went still. Even without seeing his face, Linsey could practically feel the frustration radiating from him.

“Darling, that’s cruel. We’ve barely been married for a few months, and you’re already talking about sleeping apart? That’s a bit harsh.”

Linsey couldn’t fight the smile tugging at her lips, and she turned to gently cradle Collin’s face in her hands.

Seeing the pitiful look on his face, Linsey couldn’t help but laugh softly, leaning down to plant a gentle kiss on his lips.

“Cut it out. Collin, you’re getting really good at playing the victim. Honestly, I don’t know where you picked that up.”

Collin watched her rosy lips, his mind wandering. “Come on. I’m being totally sincere here. No acting involved.”

It dawned on Collin then that Linsey really did have to leave. He knew how dedicated she was to her work and would never stand in the way of her career.

“I’ll drive you,” Collin offered.

Linsey quickly shook her head. “No, your injury isn’t fully healed. You need to stay home and rest.”

Collin pressed his lips together in resignation. “Alright, then I’ll walk you to the door.”

Linsey’s face lit up with a bright smile. “Okay.”

Collin quickly got dressed and, with a thoughtful air, escorted Linsey to the villa’s entrance, lingering just long enough to watch her get into the car.

Just as he turned to head back inside, a loud voice called out from outside. “Collin! Hey, Collin!”

At the sound of that familiar, boisterous voice, Collin didn’t need to turn around to know it was Dustin.

Of all his friends, Dustin was the only one who couldn’t keep quiet for more than five minutes.

Collin continued walking inside, his tone calm as he called back, “What brings you here so early?”

Dustin caught up to Collin, grinning widely. “I heard Ivy’s back, so I figured I’d come by early to visit her!”

Collin raised an eyebrow. “Why are you so concerned about Grandma? She is my family, not yours.”

A brief flash of surprise crossed Dustin’s face before he shrugged, his tone light. “You’re in a good mood today, huh? Messing with me.” As he spoke, he walked further inside. “I heard Ivy came back to the country last night. I didn’t want to disturb you guys in the middle of the night, so I thought I’d wait until now to drop by.”

Dustin nudged Collin, his excitement evident. “Come on, let’s go. I’ve been dying to see Ivy. It’s been years, and she was always so kind to me. I really miss her!”

Collin could tell Dustin cared deeply for Ivy. Before she left for treatment abroad, Dustin would often visit, and they had developed a close friendship.

“She had dinner with us last night, then left. She said she wanted to stay at the nursing home, so we didn’t stop her,” Collin explained.
