He wantedto tweak a wedding dress design and get it made. But after everything that went down later, I never got it done. I called him today, figuring I'd cancel and return his deposit, but he wouldn't have it." She paused, her brow creasing just a touch. "I still think I should send the money back, though. Could you helpfigure out how to return it? I don't want to owe him-it's been nagging at me." Collin's mouth tugged into a quiet smile, pleased by how firmly she was cutting ties with Gorman.

He turned to his assistant in the front seat. "Pull up Gorman's bank details and get that refund sorted for what he gave Linsey." "On it," the assistant replied, already taking out his phone to get started.
A bit later, the assistant's face twisted in puzzlement. "Mr. Riley, I tried sending the money, but Gorman has blocked us." Linsey let out a short, frustrated sigh. Gorman was turning this into a hassle for no good reason.
"Let's drop it," she said, shaking her head. "If he's dead-set on rejecting it, he'd probably just find a way to shove it back at us. I'm not wasting my ton this." Collin tipped his head her way. "So, what's your plan now?" She pressed her lips together, mulling it over, then said softly, "The deal's still on, so I'll finish the dress and have it crafted. We'll get it delivered when it's done." After a moment, she added, "If he doesn't want it, too bad. He's leaving the country soon anyway, and we'll be rid of him for good." A sudden gleam sparked in her eyes as she broke into a grin. "And the money? I'll slip it over to a local orphanage on the down-low." Collin raised an eyebrow, a smirk tugging at his lips. "So you're making Gorman an accidental d oder?" Her grin stretched wider, bright and mischievous. "You got it! He's got cash to burn, so it all shakes out perfectly." Collin respected her decision. "If you're cool with it, I'm in. Just holler if you need help with anything." Linsey's smile softened as she settled back into his arms, feeling the weight lift off her.

That weird fatigue and nausea from the banquet didn't creep back and creep she soon pushed it out of her thoughts.
By Monday, her ankle felt solid-she could manage a few steps without e winging. Collin fretted, but Linsey was itching to return to her usual groove.
"I'll drive you," he said, calm but insistent.
She brushed him off with a quick shake of her head, "No need to baby Chead No me. Your shoulder's still healing-stay here and rest."
