Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 908:

Whatever plan she held onto, it had to come from her—and no one else.

With that resolve, Linsey gathered the heavy skirt of her gown, steeling herself to return to the fitting room and change back into her own clothes.

But just as she was about to step forward, a clear, graceful voice rang out from behind her. “Ms. Brooks, I hope I didn’t miss too much?”

Instinctively, Linsey’s breath hitched, and a flicker of light briefly ignited in her eyes—hope, fleeting but radiant.

As she turned, her gaze met only Haven—no one else had come with her.

Linsey quickly steadied her expression, responding with composed grace, “You’re right on time.”

It hadn’t been her decision to invite Haven here in the first place. But when Haven caught sight of Linsey in the bridal gown, a flicker of envy briefly flashed in her eyes. Still, she reminded herself that this woman wouldn’t be standing there much longer.

Kylee had made it clear: If given the chance to deal the final blow to Linsey herself, she would never breathe a word about Joanne, the one who had temporarily pulled her out of prison.

To Haven, that promise meant there was nothing to worry about. Once Linsey was out of the picture, Collin’s memories of her would surely fade like yesterday’s dust.

And in due time, it would be Haven standing beside him at the altar.noveldrama

“Ms. Brooks, that wedding gown is absolutely exquisite on you—like it was crafted specifically for your silhouette. Mr. Green clearly poured his heart into selecting it,” Haven remarked with a calculated smile, all the while mentally tracking the seconds, anxiously awaiting Kylee’s arrival.

With Gorman momentarily absent from Linsey’s side, the perfect window for action had opened. Yet Haven couldn’t fathom why Kylee still hesitated to make her move. A shadow of impatience flickered across Haven’s features, betraying her growing frustration.

Linsey had just parted her lips to offer a courteous response when the unmistakable rhythm of approaching footsteps caught her ear. Her pulse quickened with hope, though she dared not trust whether her ears were deceiving her.

Haven, catching the soft footfalls behind her, felt a spark of triumph bloom in her chest, certain Kylee had finally arrived. Yet, as she pivoted, she found Collin striding purposefully toward them instead.

Haven’s face fell immediately. She was blindsided by Collin’s presence. Hadn’t he explicitly mentioned being swamped with work commitments?

This sudden development left Haven strangely discomposed. Collin’s arrival cast a looming shadow over their carefully orchestrated plan, leaving its success hanging precariously in the balance. Linsey froze in equal astonishment, never having anticipated Collin would actually appear.
