Though Dolores rarely occupied Collin’s thoughts, he considered this carefully. «If she’s struggling emotionally, Dustin’s likely at the center of it. I’ll push him to step up, be present for her more consistently.»

Linsey pressed on, worry creasing her brow. «What about Hester? Is there truly no way to soften Hester’s judgment of Dolores?»

Without hesitation, Collin’s response came steady and sure. «Dustin and Dolores should focus on their own relationship, regardless of Hester’s interference. After all, what they share belongs to them alone. As long as Dustin shows true resolve, they can still find their way to happiness.»

Tension still etched itself across Linsey’s features, refusing to ease. «But Dustin isn’t taking any real action. Lately, he and Dolores only manage stolen moments together, and even those happen under Joanne’s protection to keep Hester from discovering them. If Joanne withdraws her help—or worse, leads Hester straight to them—Dolores will be completely defenseless.»

Collin’s silence stretched as he weighed her words. «Perhaps Dustin has already devised a strategy we’re not seeing.»

Discouragement shadowed Linsey’s expression. «I hope you’re right.»

After a moment’s hesitation, she fixed him with a puzzled stare. «Dustin runs CR Corporation as CEO, doesn’t he? With that kind of power at his disposal, surely he could stand up to Hester? If he truly wanted to, couldn’t he easily deploy security to keep her surveillance away?»

«Certainly.» Collin’s voice carried its own note of bewilderment. «Which makes his inaction all the more baffling. I can’t understand why he hasn’t moved against Hester’s meddling.»

His lips compressed into a thin line as he confessed, «Since he’s keeping his cards close to his chest, I can’t risk interfering. The last thing I want is to accidentally sabotage whatever strategy he’s crafting.»

The more Linsey absorbed his words, the deeper her unease grew. Urgency sharpened her voice. «He hasn’t confided in you at all? Hasn’t he come to you for counsel or asked for your perspective? Hester’s relentless campaign against Dolores demands immediate action.»

«We’ve barely exchanged words beyond pleasantries lately, so his thoughts remain a mystery to me,» Collin admitted.

Linsey stayed quiet for a moment, then laid a gentle hand on Collin’s shoulder. «You and Dustin practically grew up side by side, and he’s the reason CR Corporation even exists. He sees you as family, Collin. Maybe you should reach out and talk to him more often.»

She let out a soft sigh, a trace of confusion in her voice. «It’s strange, isn’t it? Dustin’s got more experience in matters of the heart than you do, yet half the time he seems completely lost. Sometimes I wonder if I made the right call letting Dolores date him…»

«Don’t worry too much,» Collin said, trying to put her at ease. «Dustin’s dependable. He wouldn’t just act on a whim. I’ll talk to him tomorrow and see where his head’s at.»

Even as Collin tried to reassure her, Linsey’s thoughts kept swirling. Collin’s trust in Dustin came from years of friendship, and Linsey respected that.

But when it came to Dolores’ happiness, she didn’t want to take any chances.
