His gaze lingered on the injuries marking Linsey's hand, his expression unreadable, shadowed with something unreadable.
For a fleeting second, he considered offering skind of reassurance.
But the thought of Carol snapped him back to reality.
His face remained void of emotion as he addressed Linsey in a composed tone. "Ms. Brooks, you have two options." Linsey's brows knitted together, a flicker of disbelief flashing in her eyes.

And just as she expected, he continued, "I'll write you a check for $5 million. Take it and walk away. Pretend none of this ever happened. The moment you accept the offer, I trust you understand the value of discretion.
Or stand your ground-go back inside, clear your name, accuse whoever you wish, even involve the authorities if that's what you want. I won't interfere." He paused, lifting his gaze. The ice-cold sharpness in his eyes sent an unmistakable warning.
Linsey felt her chest tighten.
His voice remained detached. "But I think you're well aware of my family's influence in town. If you decide to challenge us, I won't hesitate to play along. Just remember-no matter how long you fight, the result won't change. You'll lose." Linsey's fingers curled into trembling fists, frustration and fury churning inside her.

If not for the searing pain in her injured hand, she would have m applauded his dedication to playing the perfect big brother.
A flicker of irritation crossed Jeffery's face. "Enough. Which will it be? I don't ve have tto stand around." Millie, already at her limit, stepped forward, hand twitching as if she were about to slap him.
She had heard more than enough.
But before she could follow through, Linsey gently held her back.
Millie instinctively halted, gripping Linsey's arm with concern. Her voice dropped to a worried whisper. "Don't move! Your hand is still injured." Linsey flashed her a reassuring smile. "My right hand's fine. It's the left that's hurt." Recommended for you COMPLETED
