Chapter 0415
“Father finally stopped opposing my marriage to Alexander…”
In the office, Callie stared intently at the note in her hand. Her delicate shoulders trembled slightly.
In the northern regions, the Xanthos family and the Kane family were both among the four major
wealthy families, with complex relationships involving both cooperation and competition.
Since that incident years ago, the engagement between the two had become nothing more than at
piece of paper, vehemently opposed by every member of the Xanthos family.
Surprisingly, her father finally changed his mind and approved her marriage to Alexander.
“Prepare the backup!” The emboldened Callie’s beautiful eyes shimmered as she softly instructed the
young female assistant in front of her. “Cancel all appointments, I need to attend to my private
matters.”
There was another sentence she kept to herself.
What she was about to face was the most important thing in her life and with the most important
person.
Meanwhile, in the northern region, at the Kane family…
After meeting Patrick and Susanne, the head of the Kane family, Caleb, returned to the Kane family.
He was satisfied with Amber as his daughter–in–law.

She was gentle with a strong personality, and she dearly loved his son. Now, the New Chesire Group
had already taken over three cities around Ol‘ Mare… Such a daughter–in–law, though not comparable
to Callie Xanthos, was no problem at all.
As long as Alexander adored Amber, Caleb would support it.
“Mister Kane.” Outside the study, the Kane family’s chief steward, Antonio, dressed in a gray robe,
slightly bowed outside, whispering, “Miss Xanthos is here, already in the outer hall.”
Callie Xanthos?
Caleb raised an eyebrow slightly, then spoke in a low voice, “Let her in.”
Antonio hesitated for a moment and bowed again. “Yes.”
In less than half a minute, Callie came gracefully.

She did not bring her female assistant, entering the Kane family study alone. On her youthful. radiant
face was a touch of shy joy, a far cry from the Icy female CEO in the office.
“Hello, Uncle Caleb.”
She sat across from Caleb in a natural manner, her voice gentle and respectful. “It’s been so long. and
you still have the same charisma, Uncle Caleb. I have come to visit, and I hope that I’m not
troubling you.”
The girl remained as polite as ever.
Caleb held a scroll of ancient text in his hand, smiled at Callie, and spoke, “Our two families have a
long–standing relationship. There’s no need to be formal. If you have something to say, go
ahead.”
Callie blushed slightly, then gently opened her lips and uttered one word, “Alex.”
As expected.
Caleb set down the ancient text, pondered for a moment, then shook his head with a chuckle. “I
knew it would be about this matter. However…..”
He sighed softly and continued, “You should know that my son has been expelled from the family. He
has no relation to my Kane family, let alone your Xanthos family, which is even more
incompatible.
“Moreover, the Xanthos family has strict rules. How could they tolerate a castaway becoming
their son–in–law?”
He gazed at Callie’s slightly pale face and smiled. “Callie, if you don’t mind, I’ll take you as my adopted
daughter in the Kane family. I…”
Callie’s expression changed.
She came to fulfill the engagement between her and Alexander. If she became Caleb’s adopted

The engagement would be completely annulled with no hope left!
“I’ve heard about everything Alex has done in Ol‘ Mare.” she said after a while.
Without knowing how much time had passed, Callie’s face gradually regained its color. She stared at
Caleb, speaking with firm determination, “Regardless of his success or downfall in Ol‘ Mare, even if he
ends up on the streets or becomes wicked, I will still marry him. No one can stop me.
not even you!”

Having said that, she stood up, bowed slightly to Caleb, and turned to leave.
“The Xanthos family…”
Watching Callie’s retreating figure, Caleb’s gaze gradually became solemn.
Callie might be deeply infatuated with Alexander, and even if the engagement was canceled, her
actions would not be too irrational. However, the same could not be said for the Xanthos family.
Given Alexander’s remarkable achievements in Ol‘ Mare, the Xanthos family must have noticed.
Such an outstanding young talent would undoubtedly be sought after by the Xanthos family at any
cost.
If the recruitment failed, the most likely outcome would be direct destruction.
