Chapter 102 The Unassuming Adopted Daughter +5 Free Coins

If any other woman had been by Zachary's side today, Kieran wouldn't have been concerned. Yet, it was Lenora who happened to be there.

She had a unique background. She hailed from a simple, average family, far from the aristocratic pedigree of other ladies of her time. Nevertheless, she was deeply adored by Gerald.

As for Zachary, having been raised by Gerald, he shared a deep affection for the latter.

"If Gerald were to play matchmaker for Zachary and

Lenora, out of filial piety. Zachary might not necessarily refuse."

In other words, Lenora was the greatest threat to Susanna.

Kieran's assistant asked, "Mr. Carston, should we tail them?"

"Understood, Mr. Carston," responded his assistant.

After returning home, the housekeeper brought him a glass of water and casually mentioned, "Sir, Mr. Carston has been here for about an hour. He's currently waiting for you in the study."

The "Mr. Carston" the housekeeper was referring to was none other than Susanna's father, Kenneth Carston.

Upon hearing this name, Kieran furrowed his brows. He hummed in acknowledgment and headed upstairs.

Upstairs, Kieran halted in his steps before the door of the study room. He hesitated slightly but ultimately pushed open the door and entered.

"Kieran, you're back."

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Kenneth turned his head to look. He remained seated on the couch motionless, casually acknowledging his brother's arrival with a nonchalant greeting. Kieran made his way over and took a seat. "Mm. What brings you here today?"

"You truly are a busy man who tends to forget things, Kieran. I'm here because of the collaborative project with Fuller Group. Mr. Wafford gave me a heads-up, the bid's nearly in our grasp." Joel Wafford was trying to win Kenneth's favor.
