Dolores sat straighter, bristling. “Of course. Why would | lie to you?” She shot Linsey a sideways glance, puffed
up with mock pride. “I'm a grown woman. Getting laid is perfectly normal, isn’t it?”
Linsey nodded in agreement. “Of course. Totally normal.”
Dolores’ relief was short-lived. Linsey leaned in close and whispered with a wicked smile, “So... was it Dustin?”
Dolores nearly jumped out of her skin. She recoiled into the sofa cushions, wide-eyed. “How the hell did you
figure that out?!”
Linsey gave an innocent blink. “You toldat the banquet that you were taking Dustin away. Then you
vanished. Connect the dots.” She paused, thoughtful now. “Even when | was away from Grester, you'd still tell
She rubbed her chin as if piecing together a puzzle. “From what | know, Dustin isn’t exactly Mr. Sentimental. But

“No!” Dolores groaned, covering her face with one hand. “I was drunk. | didn’t even understand what he meant.
The whole thing—it just kind of... happened.”
Linsey leaned closer again, curiosity written all over her. “So, do you have feelings for him?”
Dolores took a deep breath, straightened up, and spoke seriously. “Honestly, I've never really thought about
things like that.”
She looked Linsey right in the eye, steady and sure. “The company’s just starting to grow. Right now, dating’s
not a priority. | feel like if | get into a relationship, it'll just take up too much of my time.” She paused, then
added, “Besides, I'm still not sure how | feel about Dustin. I've always just seen him as a friend...”
Linsey gave a gentle nod. “That's okay. Feelings aren't something you rush. Take your time—I’'m not going to
push you.”
Dolores smiled faintly, and the topic naturally dropped. All of a sudden, she seemed to remember something
important. “The reason | took Dustin away last night was because | was worried he'd remember seeing Zander at
that restaurant. | mean, Zander looks so much like Collin. If that jerk ever finds out, do you think he'd try to take
him away?”
