Chapter 548 Chapter 548 Linsey, May I Call You That Upon hearing Linsey's response, Myla felt an unexpected sense of relief.
Still, a hint of worry lingered.
Linsey had no family to rely on, and if her husband didn't treat her well, what would she do? Cruz, noticing his wife's growing fondness for Linsey, suggested, "Why don't we sit down and talk?" Myla smiled warmly and took Linsey's hand in an affectionate gesture. "Ms. Brooks, would you mind sitting next to me?" Linsey had already formed a good impression of Myla, so she didn't hesitate. "Of course, I don't mind." With that, they took their seats at the dining table-Myla and Linsey in the center, with Jeffery and Cruz on either side.
Cruz signaled for a waiter. "Could you bring us the menu again?" At the stime, he turned to the two men accompanying Linsey and gestured toward the nearby sofa. Linsey's security detail nodded in acknowledgment, understanding the underlying message-stay quiet and remain on standby.

These were two of the most influential figures in Grester, and they were treating her with such warmth and attention. It was a little disorienting. Still, she had enough experience to keep her composure.
"Thank you, Mr. Lawson. I'm not picky-anything is fine," she said politely.
If Collin and Dolores were here, they would surely argue that she was quite particular about food.
Myla flipped open the menu and looked at Linsey with a soft smile. "Linsey, may I call you that?" Linsey nodded. "Of course." "Good. Then there's no need to callMrs. Lawson. Just callMyla. And don't hold back-order whatever you like." Linsey couldn't refuse any longer. "Alright," she agreed, finally taking the menu more seriously.
The Lawson family had invited her here, likely because of the collaboration between CR Corporation and Lawson Group.

At the very least, she needed a good meal to keep her energy up for whatever conversation lay ahead.
As Linsey browsed the menu, Myla watched her closely, Sometimes, feelings were unexplainable. The more she observed Linsey, the more she found herself drawn to everything about this young woman.
She felt an instinctive urge to care for her.
To an outsider, it might seem like she was sizing Linsey up as a potential daughter-in-law for Jeffery. But deep down, Myla knew the truth. She wasn't thinking of Linsey as a future daughter-in-law. She was thinking of her as a daughter.

That was impossible, wasn't it? Her breath hitched for a moment.
Linsey, noticing the shift in her expression, immediately asked, e m "Myla, dalyou feel okay?" Cruz also looked over with concern. "Are you still tired from the trip?"
Myla blinked and quickly regained her composure. "No, no, I'm fine, she replied with a reassuring smile. She had just let her thoughts wander too far.
How could Linsey possibly be her daughter? She and Cruz only had Jeffery and Carol. A third child was simply impossible.
