Chapter 39 I Must've Upset Collin
The butler hesitated for a moment before letting out a quiet chuckle. "Mrs. Riley, you're overthinking it. If you'd really done something to upset Mr. Riley, he wouldn't be acting like this."
Linsey sensed there was more beneath his words. Her gaze sharpened as she studied the butler, waiting for him to
elaborate.
"There was an incident at a party once. A guy had a little too much to drink and decided to test his luck with Mr. Riley." He stopped there, his expression unreadable.
Linsey's curiosity flared. "What did that guy say?"
The butler met her eyes, his face suddenly serious. "He mocked Mr. Riley for losing his legs..... and for being unwanted by the Riley family. These are common whispers among the elite."
His voice darkened as he continued, "That man even dumped an entire bottle of red wine over Mr. Riley and sneered that he'd only let him off if he got down on his knees and begged."
Linsey's chest tightened. She had never imagined that Collin had suffered such blatant humiliation.
"Collin was insulted like that? In front of everyone?" Her voice was barely above a whisper. "What did he do?"
The butler's tone remained measured. "That man belonged to high society as well, but his status was nowhere near the Riley family's. Even so, the Rileys did nothing to defend Mr. Riley."
His eyes darkened as he added, "Later, Mr. Riley made sure that man's hands and feet would never work properly again. From that day on, he ended up just like Mr. Riley."
Collin had crippled the man.
Linsey's breath caught as a cold chill crept through her. Her lips parted slightly in shock, and a flicker of unease flashed in
her eyes.
