    Her gaze lingered on his striking features, and a subtle pull of attraction tugged at her heart..


    She couldn''t help but wonder if she still had it. After all, just some words from her had this charming man sticking around.


    As for Linsey''s aloof demeanor towards her, Beth brushed it off with an inward shrug. Collin''s courteous engagement was


    what mattered. In her eyes, his politeness was a small victory in itself.


    As Beth mulled over her thoughts, her confidence swelled, yet her face betrayed a hint of displeasure at the sight of Collin


    and Linsey hand in hand.


    With all his charm and riches, Collin being just for Linsey felt like a waste.

    Compliments flowed with ease from their lips.


    "Linsey, you and your husband are a match made in heaven."

    Meanwhile, Beth''s displeasure was palpable. She maintained a frosty demeanor, rolling her eyes before a mischievous idea


    struck her.

    ended up with Mr. Riley instead..."


    She let the words hang in the air for a beat, then turned to Collin with a probing look. "Mr. Riley, does it bother you that


    Linsey had such a lengthy past with someone else?"
