Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 817:

They chatted for a while longer. Eventually, Dolores glanced at the time and jumped up. She had work to do at the company.

She grabbed her bag in a hurry. “If you’re free tomorrow, drop by the company. We’ll sign the contract, and you can start whenever you’re ready.”

Linsey grinned. “With all the buzz around Aurora, I’d better get started right away. Time to help the company make some real money.”

Dolores laughed and high-fived her. “That’s the spirit! See you tomorrow then.”

“Yeah, see you.”

After Dolores left, Linsey stretched a little and started toward her room, hoping to catch a short nap.

But just then, there was a knock at the door.

She paused, thinking Dolores had forgotten something.

She walked over and opened it, starting to say, “Did you forget—” But the words stopped as soon as she saw Gorman’s smiling face.

The smile that had just begun to form on Linsey’s lips vanished.

For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

After everything Gorman had done for her and the kids, she couldn’t just shut the door in his face.noveldrama

But after what he said last night, she also didn’t want to send the wrong message again.

While she was still searching for words, Gorman spoke softly. “What? Won’t you invite me in?”

He held up a small bag of toys. “I promised Zenia and Zander I’d bring them these today.”

Linsey blinked, surprised. She hadn’t known he made such a promise. Still, he was here for the kids.

Whatever was going on between her and Gorman, she didn’t want them caught in the middle. And the truth was, Zenia and Zander liked him a lot.

With that in mind, she stepped aside and opened the door wider.

“They’re still napping, but they’ll be up soon. Come in.”

Gorman spoke softly. “It’s no trouble. I’m here because I promised the kids I’d come, and I don’t want to disappoint them.”

As Linsey shut the door, Gorman added, “I remembered your words from yesterday. Once everything is delivered, I’ll head out.” Linsey’s discomfort grew on hearing his words.

Gorman, though occasionally strange, was generally a kind man and had always treated Linsey well.
