As soon as Connor suggested helping Burnet recover the 80 million, Marissa’s expression turned sour. Burnet, on the other hand, looked at Connor with a hint of curiosity, encouraging him to continue.

Ignoring Marissa’s disapproving look, Connor said to Burnet, “You could marry that Elin you just met. Then the 80 million would essentially become money spent on your own wife, so you wouldn’t have to feel bad about it.”

At this suggestion, Burnet’s lips curled in a mix of amusement and annoyance. What an absurd suggestion! His heart was already taken. Despite years of searching without a trace of Silver Fox, he hadn’t given up hope.
