Chapter 1796 Take You as My Wife?
"Just pick any shirt," Will motioned toward the wardrobe in front of Linda.
Without hesitation, Linda stepped into his wardrobe and picked out a black shirt for him.
As she emerged from the wardrobe, she couldn't help but notice that Will's gaze had been fixed on her the entire
time.
"Uh…Why are you staring at me like that?" Linda nervously held onto the shirt, feeling uneasy under Will's fiery
gaze.
Will quickly shifted his gaze and calmly explained, "Your silhouette reminds me of her."
Linda was puzzled, "Who? Liz?"
"Mhmm."
Will didn't deny it because those words were a calculated and intentional move.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConsidering how Linda willingly stayed and consistently offered her assistance with various tasks, didn't that hint at
her romantic interest in him?
Since she's so keen to stick around… why not flirt and playfully tease her a bit? It won't hurt anyone, right?
With her head slightly lowered, Linda put on a coy expression. "Maybe it's because we're around the same age and
get along well, and also... Mr. Darcey, your strong feelings for Liz."
Will's profound affection for Elisa left Linda feeling envious and speechless. How could Liz, a divorced woman,
capture Will's attention and deserve his love for her?
However, the following moment, Will's tone turned cold as he remarked, "Ms. Garner, are you planning to play
dress-up with me since you're holding onto my clothes?"
His eyes held a touch of frostiness.
"Oh?" Linda's openness and directness in approaching intimacy startled him.
No wonder Elisa had warned him to be cautious around Linda. Elisa was right about Linda's cunning and flirtatious
nature. He couldn't help but scoff, "Don't you think such words belittle your self-worth?"
Linda swiftly redirected the conversation, her voice slightly choked up, "You're right. I have no self-worth... Even
though I'm the youngest daughter in the Garner family, I hold no significant position within the Garner Group. But if
Mr. Darcey is willing to extend a helping hand, things can change, and I would be immensely grateful!"
With her head bowed, Linda adopted a pleading expression, portraying herself as a victim of mistreatment by the
Garner family.
It was undeniably audacious for her to harbor such bold ambitions, using her 'adopted' identity as the youngest
daughter of the Garner family as a means to quickly rise in status overnight.
Will discerned her agenda and sarcastically questioned Linda, "Your status or relationship within the Garner family is
none of my business. I allowed your participation in the western suburbs project solely due to Liz's influence. And
for the same reason, you were included in our meal discussions at my house. While I appreciate your eagerness to
assist me, what's next? Are you planning to offer yourself to me and ask me to take you as my wife?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWill didn't hold back. He confronted and criticized Linda, believing that if she genuinely embodied the Garner name,
she wouldn't stoop so low and compromise her self-respect.
Will had underestimated Linda's shamelessness. Fueled by deep-rooted hatred and resentment towards Elisa, she
was driven solely by selfish desires.
Linda had no inhibitions in her cowardly pursuit as long as it helped her achieve her goals!
So, why would Linda concern herself with shame or worry about being judged?
Linda lowered her head and said, "If Mr. Darcey is willing to lend a hand, I would be grateful..."
"Well, too bad. I don't have an imperial throne waiting for you to inherit. I don't need you to sacrifice yourself or
prove your loyalty in service of me. If you find yourself with spare time, why not channel your efforts towards self-
improvement and increasing your value?"
Before Linda could finish speaking, Will rudely interrupted her, his words cutting and harsh.
Despite the intense humiliation she experienced, Linda refrained from retaliating and maintained her silence.
She resorted to forcefully pinching her hand, discreetly coaxing her tear glands to swell and tear up.
