Semua Bab The CEO’s Obsession: Layla, You’re Not Allowed to Die: Bab 641 - Bab 650

Just as they expected, Sean was overwhelmed with anxiety.Ever since Kiera had returned to her parents' house, she hadn’t responded to his texts, and his calls went straight to voicemail. Susan was also worried and urged Sean to visit the Jenkins family home in person.Unable to wait any longer, Sean went straight to the Jenkins estate. He pressed the doorbell, but only a maid came to answer, her expression cold. She told him she needed to inform Mrs. Jenkins first.He ended up waiting outside for forty minutes before they finally let him in. As soon as he stepped into the living room and saw Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins, he couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Kiera?”Mr. Jenkins snorted, “You’ve got the nerve to ask?”Sean hurried forward, bowing his head apologetically. “Dad, I know I messed up. I should have come here much sooner to apologize properly. But there’s been a lot going on…”“You didn’t just wrong us. You wronged Kiera!” Mrs. Jenkins’s voice rose sharply. “She insisted on marry

Before coming downstairs, Kiera thought she was prepared to face Sean and ask for a divorce with dignity. But the moment she started speaking, all her composure crumbled. Her accusations tumbled out, her voice shaking, and by the end, a mist clouded her eyes, blurring Sean’s hateful face.The air inside the villa felt suffocating, frozen in tense silence.Mrs. Jenkins stared at her daughter, stunned. She had raised Kiera for over twenty years, and never once had she seen her like this—hysterical, on the verge of a breakdown. In her memory, Kiera had always been gentle and obedient. Seeing her so devastated now was like watching a stranger.Just moments ago, Mrs. Jenkins and her husband had planned to give Sean a stern lecture, maybe scare him a little. They thought they would make him show enough sincerity to win Kiera back, hoping the couple could reconcile and live peacefully together. After all, a divorced woman would become the subject of gossip.But now, seeing Kiera’s sha

“Don’t mention such unpleasant people when I’m in a good mood,” Layla replied without even looking up.Hannah fell silent, realizing Layla probably didn’t want to hear anything related to Sean, especially after everything he had put her through. Given his ruined reputation lately, it was understandable.But…Hannah frowned, troubled. Given the circumstances, she didn’t even know how to tell Layla that Sean was the magazine’s biggest investor.Half an hour later, Layla finished reviewing the report and took a long sip of her iced Americano.“The first issue’s performance exceeded our expectations. I’m sure the second issue, with Eason’s shooting, will do even better. I’m counting on you to bring us more good news.”“Of course. But…” Hannah hesitated. “Layla, given everything that’s happened, are you still planning to join Seth Mason’s film crew?”Layla nodded. “I promised him. Backing out now would leave him scrambling for a replacement. So yes, I’m going.“There’s still half a

Wilfred was wasting everyone’s time. His speech was all over the place, never getting to the point. If it weren’t for respecting Mr. Perry Sr.’s will and standing her ground, Layla would have regretted attending this meeting.“I will take over Perry Corporation under everyone’s supervision and lead it through these difficult times,” Wilfred declared, his tone filled with self-assurance.Hearing this, Layla finally perked up, her gaze fixing on Wilfred. “So, you’re saying you’re taking over Perry Corporation?”“Exactly.” Wilfred didn’t hesitate.“On what grounds?” Layla asked casually.Wilfred’s expression darkened, turning visibly pale with anger. “Because I’m the only son of the Perry family! Perry Corporation is the Perry family’s business. Do I need your approval, an outsider, to take over?”“I hold 25% of Perry Corporation’s shares. Am I not allowed to question this decision?” Layla asked calmly, her expression almost sincere, as if genuinely seeking his guidance.Wilfred’

Out of nowhere, an unexpected troublemaker appeared, completely disrupting their plans. If things continued like this, Perry Corporation would soon end up in the hands of an outsider.After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Wilfred finally set aside his stubborn pride, though his voice came out rough and reluctant. “Still no word from Sean?”Felix was momentarily stunned. “The meeting’s already over. Do we still need to reach him?”“Yes.”Wilfred slowly opened his eyes, his gaze complicated. “He’s not the type to ignore something this important. We should make sure nothing has happened to him.”Felix hesitated, a vague suspicion rising in his mind, but he didn’t dare dwell on it. Gritting his teeth, he lowered his head and replied, “Got it. I’ll go check on him later.”*An hour and a half later, Felix pulled up his sports car outside Sean’s villa. Irritated, he stepped out and repeatedly pressed the doorbell.A housekeeper hurried to answer. “Mr. Felix, what are you—”“Wh
