Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 652

Owen Reynolds showing up here today was completely unexpected.

Owen's grandpa and Lamont were like brothers in arms back in their youth, each setting off to conquer the world side by side. But as time went by, they chose different paths in life.

One ventured into the business world, while the other pursued a career in politics.

And they both excelled in their respective fields.

Over the years, the Reynolds and the Dixon families maintained their connections, but the Dixons kept a low profile, so gatherings were rare.

When an invitation from the Dixon family arrived, Ferdinand took it very seriously. He had planned to attend in person, but a sudden allergic asthma attack landed him in the hospital two days ago.

Left with no choice, he asked his eldest son, Neville Reynolds, to attend in his stead.

But Neville, being a true businessman, had not been in close contact with the Dixon family for years. Plus,

the Dixons, known for their discretion, might not be keen on mingling with businessmen, making Neville's presence less than ideal.

So, the task fell to Gorman Reynolds.

He was a lawyer, not a businessman, which seemed to fit the bill.

But with Laird being a leader in the legal, government, and law enforcement community, a lawyer's status could be even more sensitive than that of a businessman.
