NovelEnglishChapter 322
In the afternoon, Martin went to the Morgan Group to plead, but Kieran didn't meet him.
He wiped his hands and sent a message to Cole. "Keep an eye on the Locke family's asset changes and report
two cases to the police. Don't let anyone else from the Locke family leave."
Cole quickly replied. "Do you wantto bring Vivian back?"
Kieran wrote, "No need. Just keep her under surveillance." He then put his phone down and didn't bother with it
further.
Amelia was still in a daze as the dishes were brought to the table. After a few bites, her eyes lit up.
"Lila, I understand why you're a bit picky with food. After tasting Mr. Morgan's cooking, | don't think | could eat
anything from outside either."
Jamie and Teddy nodded in agreement. It was already surprising that Kieran could cook, but they hadn't
expected it to taste so good.

Lila was thoughtful. She hadn't considered herself picky, but few people could cook better than him.
She thought for a moment and didn't bother to disagree. The meal was enjoyable, and after sending the others
off, the sky outside had already darkened. Kieran and Lila walked side by side back into the house.
"If you like having friends for dinner, you can invite them more often."
She looked up in surprise, not expecting him to say something like that. She blinked. Didn't he prefer quiet and
dislike large gatherings?
As they reached the door, she wanted to ask but hesitated, and just as her lips parted, she stopped herself.
"My break will be over tomorrow. The company has arranged new work for Jamie and Teddy. Ethan has something
to take care of, so I'll take them there."
Kieran glanced at her. "Aren't you going to rest a bit longer?"
She shook her head. "I'm well-rested. It's tto get back to work."
He didn't say anything more because she seemed to be in good spirits.
Just as they were about to return to their rooms, he suddenly said, "Lila, there might be srumors going
around outside. Don't worry about them; just focus on your own tasks."
His words, with no context or follow-up, confused her, but she nodded and responded, "Alright."
The next day, someone rushed in as soon as Lila arrived at the office.
Michael, who usually preferred casual clothes, wore a formal suit today. He looked worn out, and his hair looked
tousled by the wind, but he didn't care much about

"Lila."
The others, who hadn't started working yet, looked up curiously. "What happened?"
"I know I'm being selfish." He took a deep breath. "But Shannon is my sister. I'm asking you to plead with Mr.
Morgan and let her off the hook. Please?"
He lowered his head, his tone pleading. The once confident and energetic young man had lost sof his
former vigor.

"I know it's my sister's fault. She made a foolish mistake. I'm only asking you to convince Mr. Morgan not to go
too far.
"We can give up Bolton Group's assets. We'll send her abroad and make sure she never comes back and never
causes you any more trouble."
Lila frowned slightly. She hadn't known that Kieran had been dealing with Bolton Group. She also wasn't aware of
Shannon's situation.
"What happened to Shannon?" she asked, puzzled.
"At the Locke family birthday party, Mr. Morgan drank a drink spiked by Shannon. He also learned about all the
small accidents that happened on your set; they were all caused by her, This could be considered intentional
harm, and since she's so young, if she goes to prison..."
Michael looked guilty and regretful. If he had been more insistent in persuading Shannon to give up on Kieran
and if he had discovered earlier how deeply obsessed she was, it wouldn't have ended up like this. sWw
He lowered his head. "Lila, | beg you. Can you helpplead with Mr. Morgan?"
