GoodNovelThe Billionaire's Hidden Bride A Lifetof Love 615 Chapter 615 Gorman Is Just A Friend Gorman's eyes narrowed sharply. He cast a cold glance at Danny. "Why wasn't the door closed properly?" Danny paled and rushed over. But before he could even touch the handle, his voice rang out in surprise, "Mr. Lawson? Why are you standing here listening in?" Jeffery's face froze for a split second. The moment he heard the accusation, he straightened up with a look of indignant defiance. "You're the ones who didn't shut the door. I didn't exactly chere trying to eavesdrop.' Gorman walked over slowly, his steps calm but full of weight. He stopped just short of Jeffery and looked at him with narrowed eyes. "So, Mr. Lawson... I assyou heard everything?" Jeffery's lips parted slightly, but no words cout. His eyes flicked toward Linsey, thoughts spinning wildly in his head.
Was Linsey pregnant with Gorman's child? But almost immediately, he pushed the suspicion aside. That wasn't like her. Linsey would never do something like that.
Then the truth hit him-if it wasn't Gorman's, then it had to be Collin's.

Gorman gave them a dismissive nod. "You can leave now." Linsey turned toward the doctors, her voice composed but gentle. "Thank you for everything." Once the doctors exited, Danny politely ushered Jeffery inside.
The door clicked shut behind him, sealing the tension in the room like a lid on boiling water.
Jeffery gave a wry smile as he turned to look at Linsey. "So, what's this, Linsey? You and your boyfriend planning to interrogatenow?" Just moments earlier, Gorman had been simmering with irritation-but the moment Jeffery called him Linsey's boyfriend, a quiet joy flickered through his expression. Suddenly, Jeffery didn't seem so annoying after all.
Linsey, however, didn't share the sentiment. She frowned. "What boyfriend? Stop talking nonsense. Gorman is just a friend." Gorman's smile faltered slightly, but only for a moment. He quickly gathered himself and gestured with a graceful hand. "Mr. Lawson, don't just stand there. Please, have a seat." He gave a subtle nod to Danny, who quickly brought over a chair for Jeffery. Chapter 615 Gorman Is Just A Friend Jeffery narrowed his eyes slightly, confused by Gorman's sudden shift in tone. But he wasn't naive-he caught on fast.
Ah, so that was it. Gorman liked being mistaken for her man. How childish.
Still, Jeffery took the seat with ease and said casually, "Linsey, you're pregnant... And you're still clashing with your husband?" Linsey gave him a flat look. "When did I argue with him?" Jeffery raised an eyebrow. "Weren't you two going at it yesterday? At my place, you both looked ready to explode. Was it all just because he kept his identity from you?" As he rambled on carelessly, he didn't notice how Linsey's face was growing colder with every word,
"Jeffery, if you have nothing useful to say, then don't speak. This is my life. I don't recall giving you permission to meddle in it." Her tone sharpened like a blade.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJeffery blinked, stunned by the direct hit. He realized a beat too late that his words had crossed a line.Ö didn't mean it like that. I just thought... Well, Collin doesn't even know about the baby yet, does he? Shouldn't having a child be enough for a couple to work things out?" Linsey clenched her fists. For a moment, she seriously considered slapping him.
Before she could, Gorman cut in, his tone crisp and firm. "That's where you're wrong, Mr Lawson. This is Linsey's child. Her choice. Her future. No one-not even the father-gets to use it as leverage for forgiveness." Linsey's expression finally softened. She looked toward Gorman with quiet gratitude. Because in her heart, she knew exactly what he meant.
No matter what, she couldn't go back-not even for the sake of a complete family, not when that completeness meant sacrificing herself in silence.
