Chapter 257\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI held your birthday party at the Olson Group store today because it was on your wish list. I never expected to run into her there. If that made you uncomfortable, or if it makes you want to call off the engagement, I fully respect your decision,\u201d Michael said firmly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay had originally planned to argue her case with Michael. But hearing his measured, reasonable words-so clear and so detached-she could only swallow her resentment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After all, there wasn\u2019t much emotion between them to begin with.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And Michael wasn\u2019t someone she was indispensable to.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At least he had made his stance clear. By the time they arrived, Lindsay had talked herself into acceptance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMichael, I really like you, and I\u2019m willing to slowly build our relationship and walk this path together. But I hope you\u2019ll keep your word and not betray my trust.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her posture was lofty, but in truth, she was hoping Michael would give her an out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As expected, that approach worked on him. Hearing her words, his expression softened. \u201cAll right. I will. Happy birthday.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A smile finally appeared in Lindsay\u2019s eyes. She reached out for a hug. Michael returned it politely, barely touching her before they parted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After watching Michael\u2019s car drive away, the gentleness on Lindsay\u2019s face vanished instantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned and strode quickly into the courtyard of her villa. The butler and maids immediately followed, taking her bag.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHave the items I ordered arrived?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThey have. As per your instructions, the delivery is waiting for your inspection.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay let out a cold laugh and headed straight into the hall.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Inside, dazzling crystal chandeliers flooded the space with light, filling the villa with an air of extravagant luxury.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie stood by the window, still dressed in her store uniform.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Beside her were two enormous entrance mascots, each nearly as tall as she was.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They were specially customized, limited-edition pieces with DIY color options-only a few hundred existed nationwide. The two alone cost over 200 thousand dollars.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay had placed the order on a whim at the store, specifically requesting that Winnie deliver them to her\u00a0<\/p>\n
home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Olson Group policy required customers to personally inspect large, high-value orders before acceptance. Since Winnie was responsible for the delivery, she had no choice but to wait for Lindsay.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When Lindsay came in, Winnie immediately picked up the order form and walked over. \u201cMiss Starr, your items have been delivered. Once you\u2019ve checked them, please sign here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWinnie, you\u2019ve worked hard.\u201d Lindsay finally took a proper look at her, a slow smile curling at her lips as she spoke unhurriedly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie was slightly surprised. Lindsay actually knew her name.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Had Michael told her everything?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Earlier, she had seen it from the window-Michael had driven Lindsay back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was still early. Winnie had assumed Veronica was deliberately making things difficult for her, forcing her to wait until the birthday party ended-that would be hours of waiting.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She hadn\u2019t expected Lindsay to return so quickly and personally come to sign for the delivery.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then again, if Michael wanted revenge, his fianc\u00e9e helping him wasn\u2019t out of the question. After all, it couldn\u2019t possibly be that Lindsay was so eager for toys that she cut her birthday short just to come home and receive them, right?\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Lindsay still didn\u2019t take the form, Winnie spoke again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s part of my job. If you\u2019re satisfied, Miss Starr, please sign.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay glanced at the mascots on either side, slowly circling them once before turning to the butler beside her. \u201cGo get me a good bottle of wine.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
