Chapter 537

Richard glanced at Kevin. "Mr. Burlow, this is the person in charge of our company. Her name is Miss McKinney," Richard said.

Kevin pushed his glasses up his nose. "That's odd. Why is it that the person in charge of Crossley Group is someone who has the surname McKinney? You look like you're in your twenties. Are you sure you're able to handle the company?" he asked.

Richard was about to protest when Leanna stopped him and responded to Kevin, "There's no clear relationship between one's age and capabilities, is there? You seem pretty old, yet you don't seem to be able to fit much in that brain of yours."

Kevin took a while to make sense of the other woman's words. "You—" His face turned grim. Freddie couldn't help but chuckle at this conversation. He took a step toward Kevin before throwing his arm over Kevin's shoulder. "Calm down. She's a young girl; that's why she's so impulsive."

"Who are you?" Kevin shot Freddie a displeased glare. "I… I'm a lawyer, I guess," Freddie replied.

Kevin scoffed at this. "I've always been in direct contact with Mr. Ollander. I never knew Miss McKinney or any other person in charge. Furthermore, this is Mr. Ollander's… Well, anyway, I only wish to work with him. There's no use in sending any other of your guys over," he uttered.

"You only want to work with him, huh?" Leanna uttered all of a sudden.

"Didn't I make myself clear—" Kevin started.

turned pale after he heard her words. Soon enough, a rather grim look formed on his face. His lips were trembling, and he was about to speak when he felt Freddie tapping on his shoulder. "Calm down. You shouldn't take it to heart." Kevin slumped into the couch before he started protesting. "I knew you guys weren't here to resolve the issue.
