Chapter 182

Blake’s suspicions gained conviction.

Curtis was taking orders from Gerald, CEO of Patterson Finance Group. He was now directly entangled in Kimberly’s affairs.

Blake’s gut said that Gerald’s relationship with Kimberly ran deeper than it seemed, that they had grown close.

Christopher, upon hearing Blake’s revelation, fell into a contemplative daze. He eventually asked Blake to dig into Gerald’s background, knowing that the relationship between the two could be difficult to unravel.

Meanwhile, at the Levine manor, Lilian worried over Maxwell’s decision to meet Yandel. Her concerns poured out incessantly as she repeated, “Maxwell, must you really see Yandel now? Can’t it wait until Heather returns?”

Still, Lilian was a little worried. The thought of meeting the Larson family weighed on her, and she feared it might trigger a fit of anger in Maxwell that could take a toll on his well-being.

Nevertheless, Maxwell had made up his mind to make this trip to Dellmoor. It was an agenda that was long overdue.

Lilian agreed on this point. Kimberly indeed possessed a kind heart and was always considerate of others.

Maxwell added confidently, This time, I’m confronting that family, even if it means embarrassing myself. No hotels for me; I’ll stay at Kimberly’s place. Their place is huge, and I don’t believe she’d have the heart to kick an old man like me out.”
