WantNovelChapter 1345:
Her mistake becclear, and she quickly offered another apology.
Collin paid no attention to her words and moved toward the restaurant. Just as he was about to roll away, Linsey
reached out, stopping him again.
“Excuse me, could | borrow your umbrella?” she asked politely.
That question made Collin give her a long, searching look. Rainwater dripped from her clothes, her thin shirt
sticking to her and revealing every curve.
Feeling the weight of his gaze, Linsey gasped and immediately wrapped her arms around herself, her face
burning red. She nearly snapped at him for staring, but he turned away, showing no real interest.
A mocking grin flickered across his lips. “And why would | hand you my umbrella?”
The question caught Linsey off guard, but she answered after a beat. “It's pouring outside, and my boyfriend's
waiting in the car. That's why | wanted to borrow it...”
A sharp interruption cfrom Collin. “That's not my problem.”

owe you anything!”
She had thought the man from last night was frustrating, but this one managed to be even more insufferable. At
least her previous encounter had been marked by a gentle tone. This time, every word out of this man’s mouth
felt like a threat ready to burst.
With every passing second, Linsey felt her irritation bubbling higher, though Collin clearly had no interest in
arguing with her any further. He shot a cold glance at his bodyguard, who stood off to the side, and barked, “Are
you even my bodyguard? Can't you see I'm being harassed? Handle this!”
“Yes, sir.” The bodyguard snapped out of his daze and quickly moved to guide Linsey away. He happened to be
among the rare few who had seen Linsey’s face before. Even though her outfit now concealed her features, the
sound of her voice was distinct enough to catch his attention and distract him from his job for a moment.
The bodyguard did as he was told, but Collin’s irritation only grew stronger. Already, disappointment simmered in
him over his team’s failure to locate the woman from last night. Now, they couldn't even keep away a minor
nuisance.

He made up his mind to fire every single one of them later. Without glancing back, Collin pushed forward, his
face clouded with a grim and heavy look.
Out of nowhere, Linsey’s sneeze echoed behind him, sharp and sudden. His body froze before his thoughts could
catch up, and the wheelchair jerked to an immediate stop.
Linsey, unaware that his eyes were now fixed on her, stepped toward the restaurant's front desk, ready to ask
for an umbrella.
