Chapter 1028:

Linsey’s smile was warm and genuine. «No need for thanks between us.» For Linsey, anything that mattered to Dolores was just as important to her, deserving her full commitment.

Dolores felt the same about Linsey’s priorities.

Soon, the car pulled up outside Dolores’ apartment building.

Linsey stepped out to help carry the bags upstairs, but Dolores quickly stopped her. «I’ve got this—stay here. It’s too much hassle for you to trek up and back. Rest for a bit.»

With that, Dolores scooped up several bags and darted into the building.

Linsey, left waiting below, gave a small, amused smile.

She glanced over and noticed the bodyguard standing nearby.

Recalling that he worked for Collin, and knowing Dolores wanted the gifts to remain a secret, Linsey spoke firmly. «Don’t mention our shopping trip to Collin. It’s a surprise for Dustin, got it?»

The bodyguard nodded promptly. «Of course, Ms. Brooks. My lips are sealed.»

Just then, the sharp, steady click of heels on the pavement caught Linsey’s attention, the sound oddly unsettling.

She turned to see Joanne approaching, her face inscrutable, eyes locked on Linsey.

«What are you doing here?» Linsey asked, her brow furrowing as realization hit. «Have you been tailing us?»

The bodyguard immediately moved to stand between them, ready to intervene if Joanne made any sudden moves.

Seeing that, Joanne halted and let out a light laugh. «What are you afraid of? I’m not foolish enough to cause a scene in public. I’m here alone. I’m not a threat.»

Linsey’s eyes narrowed, unease creeping over her as she studied Joanne’s overly friendly smile. She was certain this wasn’t a chance encounter.

Suddenly, Linsey remembered Gorman’s recent caution, urging her to stay wary of Joanne.

Joanne, maintaining her usual warm smile, said, «Linsey, I truly respect you and would be thrilled to work together. I’m happy to ignore your earlier dismissals today. I hope you’ll rethink my proposals.»

Nothing could have prepared Linsey for Joanne’s relentless persistence, which bordered on the absurd.

A cold resolve settled over Linsey as she replied, «I’m telling you, I refuse to get involved with something so ridiculous.»

A low, dismissive laugh escaped Joanne as her attention shifted to Dolores’ apartment building.

Without warning, she said, «You and Dolores must be closer than most sisters. It’s rare to see that kind of bond.»

Hearing Dolores’ name thrown into the conversation sent a wave of suspicion through Linsey’s mind.

There was no doubt Joanne had her sights set on Jeffery, so it made no sense for her to suddenly focus on Dolores—until Linsey pieced it together.
