Chapter 853:
Gorman carried the sleeping Zenia inside, cradling her like a fragile doll. He laid her gently on the bed and pulled
the blanket over her with care, moving as quietly as a shadow.
Linsey stood by the door, arms crossed, watching him with cold, sharp eyes. There was no warmth in her gaze—
only bitter scorn.
When Gorman finally stepped out and shut the door softly behind him, Linsey spoke, her voice like ice. “Gorman,

At her words, Gorman arched an eyebrow, amused. His eyes locked onto hers, playful yet dangerous.
“Linsey, I've always been myself with you. You're the one who refuses to seeas | am. Just look at yourself

kindness | showed was only because of you.”
Shock washed over Linsey, leaving her wide-eyed.
