"It's only been a few days since you married Collin, yet you trust him like he's been by your side forever. Fine, I'll believe you for now, but I'll be watching to see if he really treats you right." Linsey's smile broadened, her eyes shimmering with warmth. "Got it, I'll talk to him about it as soon as I get back."

Upon arriving, she immediately sought out the butler, her voice carrying a mix of anticipation and urgency. "Has Collin stepped out today?"
