But Gorman seemed completely unmoved by her defiance. He looked at her with a soft, almost tender expression before going on, "As for you and Collin's children..." He let out a small, mocking laugh. "I've never cared about them. In truth, I can't stand the sight of them. Any kindness I showed was only because of you." Shock washed over Linsey, leaving her wide-eyed.
For four long years, every tGorman had been around the children, he had been patient and kind-gentle in ways she had never seen before.
And now he claimed it was all an act? A cold performance just to stay close to her? Had he been planning this from the moment he asked her to go abroad with him? But why? Linsey couldn't wrap her mind around it. What could possibly be worth such a long game? Gorman's voice turned cold, flat as stone, yet it still sent a chill crawling down her spine.
"Zenia, at least, is easy on the eyes. She looks so much like you did as a child. Being around her feels like I spending twith a younger version of you." He paused, his face twisting with brief disgust. "But your precious son... He's a pain in the ass. Had it not been that I was trying to please you, I wouldn't have given Collin's son a second glance." He let out a sigh, hollow and empty. "Oh, Linsey... Why did you have to end up with fraternal twins? Your son is the spitting image of Collin. He should never have been born."

She watched as a red mark bloomed across Gorman's cheek. She knew then- she had hit him with everything she had.
