Chapter 201 Your Mother Was Stunning
Linsey realized that Collin had taken her to a cemetery.
In that moment, a realization hit her like a bolt of lightning. She turned swiftly, her gaze locking onto Collin, who was approaching in his wheelchair, and asked in disbelief, "Collin, are you bringing me to see your mother?"
Collin''s biological mother, thete wife of the head of the Riley family, had always been a subject of curiosity for Linsey, though she''d never imagined Collin would bring her to this ce.
She knew how much Collin cherished his mother. So, by bringing her here, did it mean that she held an irreceable spot
in his heart?
Collin offered a soft smile. "Yes. Didn''t you sayst night you wanted to
understand me better? I thought I''d take you to meet my mother. But here..."
He paused for a few seconds, his eyes searching hers, before he spoke again. "If you''re having second thoughts, it''s a little
Linsey shook her head quickly, her expression sincere. "I''m not having second thoughts. I''ve wanted to meet your mother
for a long time."
She grasped his hand with certainty. "Collin, let''s go. Lead the way."
Collin nodded, casting a brief nce at the subordinates behind them. "You don''t need to follow us."
Linsey gently pushed his wheelchair, and they headed for Collin''s mother''s grave. Behind them, the subordinates exchanged quiet, amused nces.
While most couples might opt for a romantic setting on a date, these two... well, they were anything but conventional.
Linsey had invited Collin to an orphanage, and now he was guiding her to a cemetery. In their own unique way, they truly
were a perfect match.
After following Collin''s instructions, Linsey gently pushed his wheelchair toward a specific gravesite.
The area was pristinely maintained, every detail showing the utmost care and respect.
Linsey lifted her gaze to the photograph on the tombstone and froze, her breath catching in her throat. "She was so
beautiful..."
The woman in the photograph had a soft, serene beauty, the kind that reminded Linsey of a warm spring morning.
"Collin, your mother was stunning," Linsey murmured, her voice filled with admiration. She turned to him, her eyes briefly meeting his strikingly handsome face.
Now, Linsey understood where Collin got his striking good looks from.

Chapter 201 Your Mother Was Stunning
Collin stared at the photograph of the woman, his gaze filled with a mix of emotions tooplex to name.
He pressed his lips together, his voice quiet butced with bitterness. "It''s a shame she fell for the wrong man and ended
up dying with regret."
The sorrow in his voice tugged at Linsey''s heart. Without thinking, she crouched beside him and gently took his hand. "Collin, whatever happened in the past is behind you now."
She couldn''t bear to see him in pain.
A faint, bitter smile tugged at Collin''s lips. "It''s been years... I''ve long forgotten what sadness feels like. After all, I never even got to meet her. I just feel sorry for her. Grandma always said my mom was talented, well-read, graceful... I wonder, if she hadn''t married my father, would she have lived a different life? Would she have survived giving birth?"
As he spoke, a mockingugh escaped his lips. "It really wasn''t worth losing her life for a man like that."
Linsey sighed quietly, her heart heavy. "Love can be blind,” she said softly.
Collin turned to look at her, and the gloom on his face slowly faded, reced by a warmth and tenderness that filled the space between them.
"You''re right,” he said, his voice filled with sincerity. “But my greatest blessing was meeting you."
Linsey''s face flushed instantly, her heart fluttering. Smiling, she teased, "At first, I thought I''d end up stuck with Felix, that scumbag. I never imagined I''d meet you. Looking back, it''s the best thing that ever happened to me."
She lifted her gaze to meet his, her tone serious yet full of affection. "Collin, I''m just as grateful to have found you."
