Chapter 206 Chapter 206 Are You Saying Collin Is In Debt "Really?" Kylee responded, feigning indifference.
Then, she was struck by a thought, and a slow smile crept onto her lips.
She continued, "But if Collin truly cherishes you, why would he let you work? It's exhausting, and for what? A few measly pennies? If he really loved you, wouldn't he want you to just relax and enjoy life at home?" Linsey's expression tightened, her displeasure clear. Keeping her tone even, she replied, "I'm more than capable of earning my own money. Why should Collin bear all the burdens alone? I'm his wife-we're meant to share both the joys and the struggles. That's what marriage is." Kylee chuckled, clearly amused. "Share both the joys and the struggles, huh? You should be counting your blessings for marrying Collin. What hardship could you possibly mean?" "Helping him pay off his debt and getting through tough times together," Linsey said while meeting her gaze without hesitation.
Kylee blinked. "Wait-pay off his debt?" A beat of silence passed before she leaned in, her confusion deepening. "What debt? Are you saying Collin is in debt?" Linsey gave a small nod. "Yeah. He used to owe a hundred million dollars. He's paid off most of it, but he probably still needs money for other things. As his wife, I can't just stand by and let him struggle alone." Kylee froze, completely blindsided.
Collin? In debt? That didn't make any sense.

As someone who owned all the assets and shares of CR Corporation, a hundred million dollars should have been nothing to him.
Wait... was CR Corporation struggling? If Collin was actually in trouble, she needed to keep her distance-before she got dragged into it.
That unsettling thought took root as Kylee cautiously asked, "Who does Collin owe a hundred million dollars to?" Linsey responded instantly. "CR Corporation, obviously." Kylee's tension melted instantly. So that was it.
Linsey actually believed Collin owed money to his own company? Kylee nearly laughed out loud. It was almost too ridiculous. Linsey clearly had no idea about Collin's true relationship with 0.0% Chapter 206 Are You Saying Collin Is In Debt CR Corporation.
So all that talk about debt-it was just another one of Collin's lies. He must have fed Linsey a story, and she had swallowed it whole.
As she realized this, Kylee's disdain for Linsey only deepened.
Collin had spun so many absurd lies that Kylee could only reach one conclusion- he didn't take Linsey seriously at all.
Maybe he played the role of protector now, but it was probably just for his own amusement.
Smug delight bubbled up inside Kylee, and before she could stop it, a quiet laugh slipped out.
Linsey turned, puzzled. "Why are you laughing?" Kylee quickly wiped the expression from her face and shrugged. "Oh, nothing. Just thought of a joke." She had been overthinking things earlier.
Linsey was no threat-Kylee saw that clearly now.

She could handle Linsey however she wanted, and even if Collin found but, he wouldn't lift a finger to stop her. That much was certain.
Meanwhile, Linsey remained oblivious to Kylee's shifting demeanor.
Focused on the ingredients before her, she took a quick glance and pieced together Collin's food preferences.
Even if Kylee wasn't serious about teaching her, she was confident she could learn to make these dishes on ΕΠ her own.
Kylee leaned against the counter, watching Linsey move about. A slow, knowing smirk tugged at her lips. The girl was wasting her time. And Kylee found the whole thing downright pathetic. 100.0%
