Although Kevin was only four, Carlson was greatly confident the boy would grow into a tall and handsome man like him.

The only thing he wasn’t thrilled about was the idea of his son marrying into the Holmes family.

‘Oh well, that’s a problem for the future. On the bright side, maybe Tinley won’t even live to see the kids get married‘ Carlson touched his chin thoughtfully.

He was already acting like the Holmes family’s in–law, taking the opportunity during dinner to instill his beliefs in his son.

Sitting beside him, Karen found this inappropriate.

Someone like Tinley, knowing her health was failing, would surely plan ahead to ensure her daughter lived a worry–free life. Not to mention, the Adler family was there to support her. Hoping to take everything from them was simply unrealistic.

When Karen voiced her thoughts, Carlson immediately snapped at her impatiently. “What do you know? Do you think anyone can be like Tinley? There won’t be another woman like her, not even her own daughter.”

Karen felt a bit embarrassed after being scolded, but as a mother herself, she couldn’t help but put herself in Tinley’s shoes. If it were her, she would definitely make sure everything was set in place to protect her daughter.

Carlson couldn’t deny that, but with the girl being the only heir, the Holmes family was bound to decline if something happened to her. No matter how capable the people Tinley left behind were, the Holmes family’s downfall would just be a matter of time. Maybe it wouldn’t happen right away, but give it a few decades, and it would be obvious.

“If Tinley hardens her heart to make her daughter follow in her footsteps, leaving the girl with a group of loyal and capable people, plus the support of the Adler family, things could remain stable.

“The problem is, those who are truly talented usually have their own ideas. If you can’t win them over, you have to be prepared for betrayal.

“Anyone with real ability would prefer to carve out their own career rather than work under someone else, especially a girl who knows nothing.

“Besides, Tinley is so protective of her child. She’s probably thinking about how to make it up to her daughter right now. How could she bear forcing her to learn all that?”

Carlson sneered and remarked, “A woman like you will never accomplish great things.”
