The man had sharp and well-defined features-deep-set eyes and a tall, slender frthat seemed as elegant as a swan. He walked with long strides, his powerful presence filling the air like a powerful being controlling everything around him.
Kieran looked up and saw the bandage wrapped around Lila's head, with traces of red on her forehead. His gaze immediately darkened. He shouldn't have been so soft-hearted toward Bolton Group.
Feeling the overwhelming aura behind her, Lila turned around. The emotions she had been holding in suddenly cracked. She had been terrified when Shannon sped toward her earlier. She probably wouldn't have survived if it hadn't been for Terry.

In the past, he had struggled to deal with the rumors about Lila's relationship and had failed to resolve the issues before Kieran could intervene. Now, he hadn't been able to protect Lila from the car accident before Terry did.
If it were he who saw her first, would it be despicable to sacrifice himself to save her so that she would glance at him a little longer or maybe even enough for her to feel indebted?

Kieran looked toward Yelena. "I will cover Mr. Jones's medical expenses, and any further compensation will be arranged later. During his recovery, I will ensure he receives the best care in a private ward with dedicated nurses.
"On behalf of my fiancée, I would like to thank you and offer our apologies for today." His clear, melodic voice felt like a soothing melody to Yelena, leaving her momentarily stunned.
She hadn't fully understood what he said but still nodded vaguely.
"It's fine," she replied, shaking her head, her earlier hostility toward Lila now gone. Watching Lila being supported away, she slowly regained her focus.

"Do you know what Mom and Dad have sacrificed for you? They're old, yet they're kneeling at the Morgan residence. Don't you feel sorry for them?"
Shannon's heart trembled. She parted her lips but couldn't find her voice for a long twhen she finally spoke, her voice was hoarse. "I will take responsibility for the things I've done."
"Can you really take responsibility? Do you know Bolton Group is mliquidating assets because of you, and all the years of hard work from Mom and Dad are ruined? "So many people will be forced to leave, including those who've worked for Bolton Group for decades. They all have families to support.
"Mom and Dad have sacrificed everything for you. Don't you fee anything? How can you say you'll take responsibility? Can you handle it?" he shouted.
