Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After


    Chapter 506 You Have Two Options


    Jeffery fell silent, momentarily thrown off bnce.


    His gaze lingered on the injuries marking Linsey''s hand, his expression unreadable, shadowed with something


    unreadable.


    For a fleeting second, he considered offering some kind of reassurance.


    But the thought of Carol snapped him back to reality.


    His face remained void of emotion as he addressed Linsey in aposed tone. "Ms. Brooks, you have two options."


    Linsey''s brows knitted together, a flicker of disbelief shing in her eyes.


    From the way he spoke, it was obvious-he still refused to ept the truth.


    And just as she expected, he continued, "I''ll write you a check for $5 million. Take


    it and walk away. Pretend none of this ever happened. The moment you ept the offer, I trust you understand the value of discretion.


    Or stand your ground-go back inside, clear your name, use whoever you wish, even involve the authorities


    if that''s what you want. I won''t interfere."


    He paused, lifting his gaze. The ice-cold sharpness in his eyes sent an unmistakable warning.


    Linsey felt her chest tighten.


    His voice remained detached. "But I think you''re well aware of my family''s influence in town. If you decide to challenge us, I won''t hesitate to y along. Just remember-no matter how long you fight, the result won''t change. You''ll lose."


    Linsey''s fingers curled into trembling fists, frustration and fury churning inside her.


    This was beyond cruel, beyond insulting.


    Did he really see her as nothing more than an opportunist?


    A bitterugh nearly escaped her lips.


    She had assumed Carol was the worst of the Lawsons.


    Who knew Jeffery was even more despicable?


    He knew exactly what his sister had done, yet he still shielded her, acting as if she were faultless.


    And now, he was twisting the situation to paint her as some money-hungry schemer while positioning himself


    and Carol as the victims.

    Howughable. Her lips curled into a smirk before she let out a cold chuckle.


    As he saw herck of response, Jeffery''s brows furrowed. "What''s the issue with you now?"


    "My issue?" Linsey''s smirk vanished as she met his gaze, her expression cool and detached. "Well, you seem remarkably skilled at intimidation. I take it this isn''t your first time cleaning up Carol''s mess?"


    If not for the searing pain in her injured hand, she would have apuded his dedication to ying the perfect


    big brother.


    A flicker of irritation crossed Jeffery''s face. "Enough. Which will it be? I don''t have time to stand around."


    Millie, already at her limit, stepped forward, hand twitching as if she were about to p him.


    She had heard more than enough.


    But before she could follow through, Linsey gently held her back.


    Millie instinctively halted, gripping Linsey''s arm with concern. Her voice dropped


    to a worried whisper. "Don''t move! Your hand is still injured."


    Linsey shed her a reassuring smile. "My right hand''s fine. It''s the left that''s hurt."
