?Chapter 1063:
For once, M’s calm exterior disappeared, reced by outrage. “Who does Collin think he is—royalty? Founder of CR Corporation or not, he has no right to walk all over Linsey. There’s no way we’re letting him hurt her again!”
She gathered herself, determination burning in her voice. “We need to speak with Linsey right away. She deserves so much better than a man who can’t stand by her side. Our doors are always open. Linsey and her children will always have a home with us.”
A solid nod from Cruz confirmed his support. “That’s right. She’s our daughter, and her children are our family. We’ll give them all the love and protection they need.”
He then turned to Jeffery, his face growing serious. “Jeffery, you’re her brother. Since you and Alicia already know what’s going on, it’s up to you to find out what Linsey wants. Do whatever you can to help her bring the kids home.”
A meaningful nce passed between Cruz and M. “For now, we’ll keep quiet. Let Linseye to us on her own terms. She shouldn’t feel cornered or pressured.”
Jeffery needed a moment to take it all in. Cruz and M pulling together such a well-thought-out n so quickly caught himpletely off guard.
Part of him wished he had recorded every word, just so he could rey it for Linseyter.
Maybe then she would finally see it for herself—that they cared more than she ever imagined, and in their hearts, she was already part of the family.
Gentle softness crept into Jeffery’s expression. “Dad, Mom, I was just spouting nonsense. Linsey’s two children both belong to Collin. Four years ago, during Linsey and Collin’s divorce proceedings, she was already expecting. Sheter delivered twins while living abroad. I still haven’t had the opportunity to meet those two little ones.”
An apologetic smile crossed his face as he added, “Collin would never stoop to such shameless behavior. I believe Linsey has genuinely chosen to reconcile with him. They’re madly in love and simply cannot exist apart.”
Both M and Cruz listened, staring nkly at Jeffery.
“Jeffery! How dare you carelessly spread such gossip about Linsey’s private affairs?” Sharp exasperation colored M’s voice as she scolded him, though relief secretly flooded through her.

Relief washed over her as she knew the reality wasn’t as Jeffery had painted it. Had his words been true, Linsey would have suffered another devastating blow from Collin.
Gradual rxation settled over Cruz as well, his previously rigid and stern features softening. “That’s good to hear.”
A brief silence stretched between them before his eyes brightened, and his voice carried mingled joy and curiosity. “So Linsey delivered twins? Are those children staying with Collin currently?”
“Most likely, yes,” Jeffery confirmed.
Faint wonder touched M’s smile as she spoke. “I never imagined Linsey would bear twins overseas. Those precious children must be four years old by now.”
Mncholy crept into her features after a pause, and she whispered, “Linsey must have weathered countless struggles through the years. Caring for two babies single-handedly until they reached four, with no one to depend upon or confide in.”
Bitter anger shed through Cruz upon hearing that. “Collin is absolutely despicable, putting Linsey through all this!”
M nodded in agreement but pressed her lips together, cautioning him, “When we encounter Linseyter, avoid speaking ill of Collin in her presence. As her parents, we’ve likely contributed far less to her life than Collin has. We should remain silent and spare her any distress.”
