Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After (Linsey)

Chapter 878:

Tears threatened to spill, sorrow rising as the reality of Zander’s missing mother and sister crashed over him. Despite himself, he found a flicker of comfort in the presence of this stranger—this man who claimed to be his father.

His tone stayed stubborn, but the walls around his heart were beginning to crack.

“I don’t know where they went,” Zander muttered, his voice barely steady. “Mommy got mad because I ran away. Now she doesn’t want me anymore.”

Collin’s breath caught as he watched Zander begin to cry. Without hesitation, he reached out and gently smoothed a hand over Zander’s head.

“That’s not true. Your mom would never leave you by choice. She loves you way too much for that. Something must’ve happened—something she couldn’t avoid.”

Thoughts swirled through his mind; he tried to make sense of it all. From what he knew of Linsey, she would never abandon her kids unless the situation left her no other option. Whatever made her run—it had to be serious.
