Chapter 162

I vaguely guessed that the Renolds family's situation was probably complicated, but it wasn't appropriate to ask Jennifer, whom I had just met, about it.

After a slight hesitation, I shook my head. "I'm sorry, I can't promise you that. He has his own convictions, and as his friend, I can only support him."

He could have liked someone for twenty years, and he had always been calm and steady. He must have weighed the pros and cons of everything. It wasn't something outsiders could interfere with. Jennifer didn't show any displeasure on her face, just calmly said, "Aren't you curious who he likes?" "If he wanted to tell me, he would."

Since he hadn't told me yet, it meant he didn't want me to know. I also felt that between friends, it wasn't necessary to be completely transparent; it was okay for each other to have their own secrets. She suddenly changed the subject. "After graduating from college, my grandmother originally hoped he would inherit the family business early, like Ryan. He refused, chose to study abroad, and then joined the MS Group."

"You don't know why either?" she asked.

While the middle-aged lady angrily threw away the whip, my gaze returned from the direction of the ancestral hall. "He probably didn't want to have anything to do with the Renolds family."

Her delicate eyebrows raised slightly, seeming surprised by my frankness but not denying it. "That's indeed partly the reason. He hates the Renolds family the most. However, he still carries the blood of the Renolds family. Hating it is futile."

Before I could respond, footsteps suddenly came from behind. A large hand pulled me back, and Jack stood in front of me. There was a strong sense of vigilance and hostility in his tone. "Jennifer, who allowed you to bring her here?"

Jennifer cocked her brows. "Am I not allowed to bring her?"
