Semua Bab The President's Darling: Bab 841 - Bab 850

Keith laughed as if Summer had just said a ridiculous joke. He said with disdain and mockery, "Do you really think Kelly and I are a good match? I've looked into her background. Even as a birthing tool, she doesn't measure up to me."Keith's words were harsh. He implied that marriage was only about having children, and he spoke of Kelly as if she were beneath him. Summer's anger flared. She could tolerate insults directed at her but not at her friends."Keith, mind your words. Just because Kelly likes you doesn't mean you can disregard her feelings and trample on her dignity.""Sorry, but that's just who I am." With that, Keith saw no point in continuing the conversation and hung up without another word.Summer was fuming as she heard the dial tone buzzing in her ears. Glaring at her phone, she muttered through clenched teeth, "That jerk! How dare he hang up on me!"Summer couldn't stand when others hung up on her—it was incredibly rude. Anger flared within her, but alongside it

Summer was surprised. "You knew?""Of course. I could tell Keith wasn't into me. During our date, he was so distant. I'm not oblivious. How could I possibly not notice? And when I didn't hear from you about a second date, I figured he didn't agree. If he had, you'd have called me right away."Kelly was smarter than Summer thought. Even though Summer hadn't spelled everything out, Kelly had pieced it together."Summie, let me handle this and talk to Keith myself. You can't always be the one relaying the message, right? If I'm serious about pursuing him, I need to take some initiative."Kelly spoke with firm resolve, which showed that she was committed and serious about this.It was a rare moment, and Summer realized Kelly was right. She couldn't always be her friend's go-between. Although Summer wanted to protect Kelly, she knew she couldn't do so indefinitely. Since Kelly liked Keith, she should be brave enough to pursue him. Relying on others to gain happiness would be meanin

Keith played in the rain joyfully. His laughter was bright and innocent, much like a child savoring a lollipop.Hailey was elated to see Keith enjoying himself. She gently brushed back her hair and watched him with loving eyes. As Keith dashed farther down the path, she chased after him. Soon, they were playfully splashing at each other.The world blurred around them in the light rain; a cool breeze swept by, and water droplets danced in the air. Despite the misty weather, the scene felt vibrant and full of life, like an impromptu water park adventure.As the memory faded, Keith's present surroundings came back into focus. He stood at the window of Ritter Corporation, gazing out at the rain that blurred the cityscape. So much had changed since those days. He wasn't the carefree child who found joy in the smallest things anymore.Keith's gaze turned steely, his demeanor calm and composed. Settling back into his chair, he immersed himself once more in the demanding tasks that fil

Keith was a heartless and indifferent man. No matter what others did, it never affected him."Have you finished speaking? If that's all you want to say, please leave. I'm busy," Keith said emotionlessly. The air seemed to freeze. Although they were inside the office, Kelly's heart felt as cold as the rain outside. A chill spread from her heart through her veins. She couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with sadness; she wanted to cry.This was Kelly's first time confessing her feelings. Yet, she was rejected so coldly during her first attempt that she felt crying was the only way to release her emotions.A soft sob escaped her. Tears started welling up in her eyes, and she looked like a little girl whose candy had been taken away. She began to cry.Keith was stunned by the scene before him. He had never encountered anything like this—a woman crying right in front of him, and he was the reason for her tears.For a moment, Keith was flustered. But he was a cold president, and even

Upon hearing Kelly's voice, Summer immediately asked, "How are you, Kelly? Did anything happen?""Don't worry, Summer. Nothing happened; everything went smoothly."When Summer heard that everything went smoothly, she knew what Kelly meant. The weight on her heart was finally lifted. She had been worried that Kelly would hit a wall and part ways with Keith on bad terms. It seemed she had successfully invited Keith on a date.But it was strange—Keith agreeing to a date with Kelly. Could there be some tricks involved? Summer couldn't help but be suspicious. Keith was mysterious and could be particularly cunning and ruthless. Who knew what he might be planning behind the scenes?Just as Summer was about to remind Kelly to be cautious, Kelly wanted to hang up the phone. "Summie, I won't go into details now. "I'm heading out with Keith. I'll explain everything when I get back." And with that, Kelly hung up, not giving Summer a chance to say more.Summer's thoughts surfaced like sh
