Meanwhile, in the car, Gorman glanced at Caylee through the rearview mirror. She was playing quietly with Zenia. His voice held a touch of concern as he suddenly asked, "Why didn't Linsey come?" Last night, he had told Zander to talk Linsey into coming. Linsey had even promised to meet them at the airport. Gorman knew her well. When Linsey made a promise to the kids, she never broke it.
So something must have gone wrong.
Caylee froze for a moment, unsure how to respond.
Just then, Zenia looked up and asked softly, "Caylee, why didn't Mommy cto pick up Daddy and me?" Caylee's brows lifted in surprise. She glanced at Gorman.
Zenia still called him Daddy? Gorman stayed calm. He leaned back slightly and said gently, "Zenia, when you see Mommy later, remember our little secret, okay? Don't callDaddy around Mommy." Zenia nodded seriously. "I know, Gorman." Caylee's focus wasn't on how Zenia addressed Gorman.

Then, out of nowhere, he remembered what happened at the airport. A faint, mocking smile tugged at his lips.
Just as he thought-Collin still hadn't let Linsey go.
But this time, he wasn't going to give Collin another chance.

Gorman gave a small nod, letting Zenia run into Dolores' arms. Hish eyes scanned the room before En landing on the closed bedroom door.
Dolores noticed his gaze and quietly said, "Linsey's resting inside."
Gorman didn't say anything right away. After a few seconds he turned to Caylee. Take Zenia and Zander to another room to play." "Yes, boss," she said quickly and left with the kids.
Once the door shut, only Gorman and Dolores remained in the living room.
Dolores glanced at him. His face showed just how upset he was.
She sighed and spoke first. "If you're going to blsomeone, blme. I really didn't take care of Linsey like I should've." Gorman stared at her for a few seconds. Then, out of nowhere, he gave a strange little laugh and sat on the sofa.
"You're her best friend. How could I blyou?" His tone was soft. "I know Linsey. She takes her work seriously. Since she agreed to enter the competition under your company's name, I knew she'd give it everything she had." 100.0%
