Michael was helpless and shook his head in exasperation. "Grandpa, stop trying to setup. I'm a celebrity. If |
start dating, | won't be able to make money."
Albert snorted. "As if we need your money."
"But I'm a three-tBest Actor Award winner. My pay isn't little! Don't | earn more than my sister?"
Michael was genuinely puzzled. He didn't understand why Shannon had given up on working in the family
business to work as a small employee at Morgan Group.
Was it all for that indifferent Kieran?
He didn't realize that he was essentially working for Morgan Group in the entertainment industry.
This thought worried Albert even more. His two grandchildren were abandoning
the family business and working for Morgan Group.
He couldn't understand it, accept it, or respect it!
Amelie smiled and remarked, "Albert, you're a step too late. She's already

engaged to Kieran. We're currently consulting an expert to find a good date for the wedding."
"What?" Albert feigned surprise.
Lila? Married to Kieran? How could that be?
What about Shannon? What would happen to her if Kieran married someone else?
"Amelie, are you joking? Isn't she your granddaughter? And Kieran is your son. This isn't just a generational
mismatch. It doesn't seem appropriate." Albert was visibly confused.
She rebutted without hesitation, "What's so inappropriate about that? They're both my family, and there's
nothing wrong as long as it's legally allowed."
Albert was left speechless by that.
"Grandpa, what are you all talking about?" a voice interrupted, and Albert looked up to see Shannon walking in.
Kieran followed her, and was coming down the stairs two steps behind.
He casually took a cup of hot water and handed it to Lila. "Why didn't you letknow you were coming back?"
His actions were natural and refined, and his casual tone made their dynamic seem peaceful and harmonious.
Shannon's eyes narrowed, but she kept her expression neutral. The sight stung her heart, though she hid it well.
Albert narrowed his eyes. He sensed trouble. This wasn't a good omen.
Shannon had her sights on someone, and now he was being taken away right under her nose.
This was not something he could let go off easily.
"They've always been close family members, but now they're getting married? Doesn't the Morgan family worry
about how that will look to others?"

"Our families have a long-standing friendship, and I'll treat Lila like my own granddaughter."
He didn't mean to look down on Lila. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suggested a marriage alliance with his eldest
grandson.
He had heard that Lila held many Morgan Group stocks, meaning the Morgans still valued her highly.

If they teamed up, Bolton Group, supported by the Morgan family, would undoubtedly grow even stronger.
This would further cement Shannon's relationship with Kieran, making it a win-win situation.
Michael suddenly turned to look at his grandfather.
"What is this supposed to mean?"
Shannon's happiness was important, while his fate was left to chance?
Amelie narrowed her eyes. Kieran spoke first before she could speak. "Uncle
Albert, what about the opinions of outsiders?"
He asked casually as if he was genuinely curious.
Albert's heart skipped a beat.
Kieran and Shannon were close in age, and the two families had a long-standing friendship. In a
Kieran had grown up under his
watch.
It was precisely because Albert knew him well that he understood the hidden
meaning behind Kieran's seemingly casual question.
