The Billionaire's Hidden Bride A Lifetof Love 728 Chapter 728 When Do I Start Linsey knew Dolores too well. So the moment she saw that look flash across her face, she had a feeling it was about her.
She stopped and stared straight át her. "Spill it. Either you tellnow, or I'll head to your company and ask the board myself." "Please don't!" Dolores blurted, then sighed. "Since you helped us win the design competition, the board's been on my neck. They want you as our chief designer. I told them you wouldn't stay in town for long, but they think I'm being stingy-that I'm not offering you enough.".
Linsey let out a soft laugh.

But things had changed. Just last night, she had made up her mind. And that was exactly what she wanted to talk to Dolores about.
Still, she couldn't resist teasing her first. Linsey raised an eyebrow. "So... What kind of offer were you planning to make me?" Dolores didn't think much of it. She shrugged. "Only the best. Salary's a given. The title might be chief designer, but if you joined, you'd be my second-in- command. Everyone else would report to you." If people weren't asleep in the next room, Linsey would have burst out laughing.
She cleared her throat. "Oh, con. I'm not signing up to be your vice president. Chief designer just means I run the design team, right?" Dolores lifted her chin and gave a little huff. "You're my best friend. That's how I see it. The board thinks I'm being petty. But if they knew what I was really thinking, they'd just drownin useless advice again." Linsey smiled and gently wiped the sweat from Dolores' forehead. "Alright then. Since you're offeringsuch a sweet deal... I accept. So, when do I start?" Dolores froze. She stared at Linsey, mouth slightly open, struggling to process the words. "You..." Linsey raised an eyebrow, playing along. "What? Changed your mind already? Don't wantanymore?" "Of course not!" Dolores shouted, making Linsey jump.
"Shhh! The kids are still sleeping," Linsey pressed a finger to her lips.

With Dolores, she never held back. She could speak freely.

When she finished, Dolores was beaming. She nodded quickly "Good! Yo finally see that your career comes first-way more important than any guy." Linsey was amused by her tone.
Still, Dolores wasn't wrong. Linsey had spent so long worrying-afraid that bumping into Collin would stir up old feelings or mess with her head. But she hadn't done anything wrong back then. There was no reason to hide.
Yes, Collin was powerful. He founded CR Corporation, after all, But that didn't mean he could stop her from chasing her dreams in Grester. And if he tried? Well, Linsey would just think even less of him. That would only prove he was small-minded.
