Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 4151 - Bab 4160

“What a load of trash.” Buffy was in a foul mood since she had not seen Kaze around. The last thing on her mind was to collaborate with these people. Nevertheless, she seemed to be attracting unwanted attention by sitting in a prominent spot. While the Gwakes’ business was not huge, the company held several exclusive patents, so other businesses had no choice but to seek the Gwakes out. To end the harassment, Buffy would have to take a seat somewhere hidden. It was not time for Buffy to leave as many had not arrived at the event. She could not be sure whether Kaze would be one of them. She had no plans to leave just yet. It was not long before Kieran spotted a fancy black car rolling in. The license plate number was awfully familiar. It was Edmund’s ride. Understanding his role, Kieran stood by the road with a pretentious smile. Once the vehicle pulled up, Kieran opened the door to the back seat. Clarice looked up at Kieran in surprise. She had met the Barns at

“As I’ve told you, nothing is up. I’m just worried about my father.” “Isn’t your father doing well? Why are you worried? As the second-in-command, he practically controls everything. He’s the boss since the one on top tends to take a step back,” the same friends replied, mostly since the look on Clarice’s face was concerning. “It’s far more complicated than you think. Still, I think my father has a handle on things since he didn’t talk about anything major.” Clarice was about to get stuff off her chest. However, she decided to keep things to herself on second thought. She put things vaguely. It was not that she did not trust her good friend. By spilling the beans unknowingly, Clarice risked harming her father. Whether it was true or not, Clarice had to play by the rules. She tried her best to clear the air, not wanting to give her father any trouble. “Mr. Witterson is intelligent. He knows when to seize the right opportunities. Besides, only the Barns measure up to your

“You had too much to drink. Should I take you home?” Kieran had the cheek to approach Clarice again. He knew better than to get close to her. However, today was the day to get things done once and for all. If there were no issues from either party, they could just get engaged. Though the progress was pretty quick after just one date, this was all for the partnership between the Wittersons and the Barns. Kieran could tell that Clarice was not the least bit interested in him. Still, her feelings carried no weight in the decision. So long as Clarice was without a lover, they were free to get married and work together. “Why won’t you leave me alone? Haven’t I made myself clear? I don’t want to marry you.” Clarice flat-out rejected him, sending a strong message for the guy to take a hike. “That’s not why I’m here. I just want to be sure that you aren’t too drunk. It won’t look good on my family if anything happens to you here.” Kieran had a temper too. Even when Kieran

“That’s right. Just tell me his name. I want to see what sort of help he can offer to your family for you to choose him.” Relentless, Kieran demanded the person’s name. He had to find out how important this person was for Clarice to stand by him. Kieran was not keen on Clarice. However, she had the social standing that made her suitable to be his wife. That was the reason why he was pursuing her. However, her repeated rejections overwhelmed him with defeat, and he was fired up to win. “It’s not your concern whether he can be of any help to my family. It’s for my father to figure out. “But I choose him, not because of the benefits he can bring to the Wittersons. I genuinely love him.” Clarice had to set Kieran straight. Her objective was to show Kieran that not everybody was all about the profits. Some relationships were fueled by a genuine connection. “So the guy’s good-looking? I don’t understand why else you women would be hung up on one person.” Frustrated, Kie

“For the chairwoman of Gwake Corporation, you sure are young.” Clarice was skeptical. However, Buffy did not look like she was lying. Still, Clarice was surprised. “Well, I’m not as young as you.” Sometimes, Buffy lamented how time flew. A lot of things took place before she knew it. “That’s different. You’re young for a chairperson, and it’s impressive. I envy strong career women like you, but I don’t wish to be like you.” Clarice was taken aback by Buffy’s identity but more so impressed. Buffy definitely possessed a certain competency to become the chairwoman. She must be very career-driven, and that was a quality to recognize. Nevertheless, Clarice had her own goals and thoughts. She would never become someone like Buffy as the role was demanding and rigid. “So you have your own life plans. What do you want to be?” intrigued, Buffy asked.“The thing I want to do the most is have fun while I am still young. When it’s time, I want to marry the man of my dreams and b
