Felix's hands were crippled, leaving him no choice but to awkwardly prop himself up on his elbows. His appearance was the epitof embarrassment and misery. Yet, Collin regarded him with icy detachment, devoid of any hint of compassion.
Collin's piercing gaze prompted one of his men to step forward. The man's voice was calm but carried an unmistakable edge. "We can release you, but only on one condition-you must answer Mr. Riley's questions truthfully. If you even think about lying, be ready to face the consequences." A spark of hope flickered across Felix's battered face, and he eagerly responded, "Ask anything! I'll tell everything I know!" Without missing a beat, the subordinate pressed. "Who orchestrated the kidnapping of Mrs. Riley?" As the question hung in the air, Felix's fleeting smile dissolved into a tense, wary expression.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis eyes darted around, betraying his inner turmoil as he recalled the events from a few days earlier. It was Huntley, the ambitious second son of the Riley family, who had approached him with an offer to help him have his way with Linsey. Huntley had masterminded a vile scheme, concocting rumors designed to tarnish Collin's and Linsey's reputations far beyond their town of Grester. Collin's wife, stuck with a worthless cripple, had eagerly spread her legs for someone else.
The offer was too good to resist. Huntley assured him wealth beyond his wildest dreams, and it didn't take long for him to take the bait.
For years, he had wanted her. Now, not only could he finally claim her, but he would be handsomely rewarded for it. There was no way he was letting this slip through his fingers.
What Felix hadn't anticipated was Collin's unexpected arrival to save Linsey. More astonishing still was the revelation that Collin was not, in fact, crippled! As Felix assessed his precarious situation, he couldn't shake the thought that despite Collin's miraculous recovery, the vast Riley family empire would end up falling into Huntley's scheming hands.
Telling the truth now would be a death sentence-Huntley wouldn't just let him walk away unscathed.
With the weight of this knowledge pressing down on him, he straightened his back and stuttered, "It... it was all my idea..." Collin interrupted him with a scornful chuckle, his voice icy as he dismissed Felix's lies. "Go ahead, keep up the bullshit. You might as well rot here. You're worthless to us now." Felix's heart hammered in his chest as panic surged through his veins. He glanced up to find Collin and his men already turning their backs on him, their steps echoing ominously in the empty room.
A surge of adrenaline spurred Felix into action, his mind racing.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnce he was free, he could snatch his family and disappear into obscurity. "I'll talk! I'll talk!" Felix's voice cracked as he yelled after Collin, desperation tingeing his words. "I swear, it was all Huntley's idea! He forcedinto this!" Collin halted mid-stride, tension crackling in the air. Slowly, he pivoted to face Felix, his expression darkening into a stormy glower. With a menacing calm, he fixed Felix with a steely glare and commanded, "Go on." Felix inhaled sharply, his voice quivering as he admitted, "A few days ago, Huntley soughtout. He demanded that I kidnap Linsey. And then... then he insisted I make a video and leak it online. You know how the Intefeeds on the scandals of the elite. With just a nudge, the rumor of Linsey's infidelity would ignite, spreading uncontrollably." He paused, his gaze flickering with a mix of fear and regret. "His plan all along was to destroy you and Linsey, leaving your reputations in ruins." As Collin absorbed Felix's words, his expression hardened into a glacial mask of fury.
For years, he had weathered the relentless underhanded tactics of Huntley and Fernanda without striking back.
But their audacity to ensnare Linsey crossed a line beyond forgiveness. Witnessing the ominous storm brewing in Collin's eyes, Felix shuddered, his words tumbling out in a desperate rush.
"Collin, please, you have to believe me-it was all Huntley's manipolation! How could defy the influence of the n Riley family? I was powerless."
He clasped his hands together, pleading, "If there's anyone to blame, it's your ruthless faxill promise, I'll stay away from Linsey. Just... just letwalk away, and I'll forget everything that happened." At that, Collin's laughter echoed low and menacingly through the room, sending a chill down Felix's spine.
"Stay away from her? Trust me, you won't even have the opportunity to glance her way ever again." Felix, frozen in shock, felt a chill creep down his spine before blurting out, "What do you mean by that?" 100.0%
