Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 282: Conditioning the Body

Joaquin saw the disconnected call and was furious. "You little brat, how dare you hang up on me? I'll make you regret it. Oh, the thing you don't care about is coveted by

others."

He muttered to himself as he left with the aid of his cane. After he had gone, Hayden emerged from the partition inside.

It seemed his grandfather was still fixated on Julian, although the position had been declined by Julian and given to him, which was somewhat frustrating.

However, the one thing his grandfather got right was that he should never turn his back on a promising future. Only by securing a bright future could he have more.

After washing his hands, Hayden elegantly dried them with a paper towel and adjusted his bow tie, then left with a graceful stride.

Regardless of how he had come by the position, he had secured it and Hayden proceeded to walk outside.

Hayden was in high spirits, but Julian was smiling beside Aurora. Hearing what Julian had just said, Aurora glanced at him, "What's wrong, are they giving you another chance?"

"Yeah, but it's too late now. When I wanted it, he wouldn't give it to me, and now even if he's offering, I don't want it. I'll take Alvarez Enterprise by my own hands!"

Julian had already arranged for a campaign to suppress the Alvarez family. No matter how pleased Hayden was today, he would soon realize that what he had taken on was actually a hot potato.

"If he doesn't let you marry Lindsay, would you go back?" Aurora asked, leaning into his embrace.

Julian lightly touched her nose, "I left the Alvarez family before without Lindsay, didn't I? The only reason I considered going back to the Alvarez family was for you."

"For me?"
