Chapter 295 Why Did You


    Call Me Here


    Linsey turned, locking eyes with Collin''s intense stare.


    "You''re still not well. Stop pushing yourself-sit down and rest," he suggested.


    Then, without breaking his gaze, he issued a sharp order to his assistant. "Call Dominic. I don''t care what he''s doing-tell him to get here now. If he stalls, I''ll handle it myself."


    "Got it, Mr. Riley." The assistant didn''t hesitate, disappearing to carry out themand.


    Linsey let out a smallugh, shaking her head. "Collin, you''re being dramatic. It''s just a stomachache-I''m not about to copse."


    But the unwavering seriousness in his eyes stole any fight she had left. With a quiet sigh, she sank onto the sofa, doing as


    he asked.


    Neither of them went back to the dining table.


    The unexpected revtion had stolen their appetites, leaving behind only a heavy mix of anticipation and unease.


    As they waited for Dominic''s arrival, Linsey''s thoughts drifted to a possibility she hadn''t dared consider before-she might be carrying Collin''s child. A gentle warmth spread through her chest at the thought.


    Without realizing it, she lowered her gaze, resting a hand on her stomach.


    She had grown up without parents, without family.


    The idea of having a child had never felt real to her-had never even crossed her mind.


    But now... if she really was expecting, would it be a boy or a girl?


    A soft smile tugged at her lips.


    She had always longed for a warm,plete family. Could that dream really be unfolding so soon?


    Time crawled by. Just as Collin was about to call Dominic for the third time, the door swung open, and the man strode in,


    his voice edged with urgency.


    "What happened? Is someone hurt?"


    Dominic''s mind jumped to the worst-had something happened to Linsey?


    But that didn''t seem likely. If she were in serious danger, Collin wouldn''t still be sitting there. He would have already abandoned the wheelchair and carried her to the hospital himself.


    Dominic ran through every worst-case scenario as he stepped into the living room. His gazended on Linsey, seated on the sofa with Collin right beside her, their hands tightly intertwined.

    Chapter 295 Why Did You Call Me Here


    They looked tense.


    But at first nce, nothing seemed obviously wrong.


    His frown deepened.


    "Why did you call me here?" He shot Collin a questioning look before turning to Linsey. "You look fine-healthy, even.


    You''re not sick, are you?"


    Collin didn''t take his eyes off her. "She felt sick at dinner. Josh suspects it might be morning sickness, so I need you to


    confirm if she''s pregnant."


    "Pregnant?" Dominic blinked in surprise. "Did you even get a pregnancy test?"


    Collin''s expression darkened. "A pregnancy test?"


    That reaction told Dominic everything he needed to know.


    He exhaled sharply, rubbing his temples. "You two really know how to make


    things difficult. Dragging me all the way here


    without even checking first-unbelievable."


    Linsey opened her mouth, then shut it. What was she even supposed to say to that?


    Linsey had never dealt with something like this before. The thought hadn''t even crossed her mind.


    A little flustered, she forced a small smile. "I''ll have someone pick one up right away."


    "No need. I''m pretty sure I have one here." Dominic was already digging through his medical kit. A momentter, he pulled


    out a pregnancy test. "Good thing it''s not expired. Here, take it."


    Linsey hesitated as she took it, nerves creeping up her spine. Her eyes flickered


    to Collin, uncertainty clouding her


    expression. “I''ll... I''ll go now," she murmured.
