Chapter 55 Owen frowned, "No. I'll hit up some foreign experts to swing by and check you out."

"No need. If it comes to it, I'll go and meet them myself."

Catching Kenneth's icy look, Owen sighed. "Alright."

Upton, giving Owen's shoulder a pat, glanced at Kenneth. "Hey, whenever you need a hand, just tell us."

"Okay."

"Oh, by the way, there's another reason we dropped by."

Kenneth raised an eyebrow. "What's up?"

"Henry's nearby, lingering around the villa. You know, after the whole resort fiasco, he's feeling sheepish about facing you. Chickened out of coming in."

At this, Kenneth's expression turned cold, and he said sharply, "Just tell him to leave. I won't talk to him until he splits with Debra."

"Kenneth, we've been buds forever. Why sour things over a woman? Henry's just love drunk right now. Once he snaps out of it, he'll ditch Debra," Upton said. Owen quickly jumped in, saying, "Yeah, I bet the Hastings family won't let him marry Debra. Don't let her mess with our friendship."

Kenneth's eyes shot daggers, a full-on intimidating vibe around him.

"No need for more talk. I won't see him," he said.

Failing to sway Kenneth, the two then left.

Outside, Henry, catching their serious faces, figured Kenneth wasn't in a forgiving mood.

He flashed a strained smile, trying to console them. "Kenneth's still ticked, and he has not exactly recovered after the accident. I get it. I'll swing by when he's chill." Owen nodded. "Cool, you head back. Upton and I have a meeting. We'll try chatting with Kenneth another day."

"Sure thing."

After Henry split, Owen's mood totally tanked, and he ruffled his hair in frustration.

"Upton, you know Kenneth. If he says no to Henry, it's final. Given Henry's current state, breaking up with Debra isn't on the horizon."
