Chapter 677 Remember


    Our Little Secret


    "Alright," Dustin said with a nod.


    Meanwhile, in the car, Gorman nced at Caylee through the rearview mirror. She was ying quietly with Zenia. His


    voice held a touch of concern as he suddenly asked, "Why didn''t Linseye?"


    Last night, he had told Zander to talk Linsey intoing. Linsey had even promised to meet them at the airport.


    Gorman knew her well. When Linsey made a promise to the kids, she never broke


    it.


    So something must have gone wrong.


    Caylee froze for a moment, unsure how to respond.


    Just then, Zenia looked up and asked softly, "Caylee, why didn''t Mommye to pick up Daddy and me?"


    Caylee''s brows lifted in surprise. She nced at Gorman.


    Zenia still called him Daddy?


    Gorman stayed calm. He leaned back slightly and said gently, "Zenia, when you see Mommyter, remember our little


    secret, okay? Don''t call me Daddy around Mommy."


    Zenia nodded seriously. "I know, Gorman."


    Caylee''s focus wasn''t on how Zenia addressed Gorman.


    What bothered her was that this wasn''t the right time to talk about Linsey in front of Zenia.


    After thinking it over, she quietly sent Gorman a message exining what happened.


    Then, turning to Zenia with a smile, she said, "Your mom just finished a bigpetition today. She''s very tired, so she


    went to rest. But you''ll see her soon."


    Gorman, seated in front, read Caylee''s message. His face darkened in an instant.


    He had known this would happen. He never should have let Linseye to Grester for that designpetition.


    Her right hand was already in bad shape.


    Gorman turned to stare out the window, his face cold and unreadable. The chill in


    his expression made the driver grip the wheel tighter.


    Then, out of nowhere, he remembered what happened at the airport. A faint,


    mocking smile tugged at his lips.


    Just as he thought-Collin still hadn''t let Linsey go.


    But this time, he wasn''t going to give Collin another chance.

    Soon, they arrived at Linsey''s hotel.


    The moment they stepped in, Dolores lit up from the sofa.


    "Well, if it isn''t Zenia! Come here and give me a big hug!" Dolores beamed.


    "Zenia!" Zander shouted, jumping from his seat. He had been watching cartoons.


    Gorman gave a small nod, letting Zenia run into Dolores'' arms. His eyes scanned the room beforending on the closed


    bedroom door.


    Dolores noticed his gaze and quietly said, "Linsey''s resting inside."


    Gorman didn''t say anything right away. After a few seconds, he turned to Caylee. "Take Zenia and Zander to another room


    to y."


    "Yes, boss," she said quickly and left with the kids.


    Once the door shut, only Gorman and Dolores remained in the living room.


    Dolores nced at him. His face showed just how upset he was.


    She sighed and spoke first. "If you''re going to me someone, me me. I really didn''t take care of Linsey like I should''ve."


    Gorman stared at her for a few seconds. Then, out of nowhere, he gave a strange littleugh and sat on the sofa.


    "You''re her best friend. How could I me you?" His tone was soft. "I know


    Linsey. She takes her work seriously. Since she


    agreed to enter thepetition under yourpany''s name, I knew she''d give it everything she had."
