Chapter 175

In the center of the hall, a soothing and romantic violin melody began to play, adding an air of leisure and romance.

Kenneth took off his black baseball cap, casually running his long fingers through his dark hair.

The air of mystery disappeared, and he returned to his usual aloof, untouchable demeanor.

This was actually one of the few dates they had, leaving Ophelia insure of what to do.

She even felt kind of nervous.

She asked. Do you come here often?"

Ophelia looked around the place. The setting was indeed nice, quiet fitting for Kenneth's status.

He said, "Not really. You should try the food here. If you like it, I have the chefs come work at Rosewood Manor."

It wasn't surprising at all that Kenneth would say something like that. His words matched his personality perfectly. "Well, that's unnecessary. We can just come here regularly," said Ophelia.

It was nice to think of a visit here as a date once in a while.

While waiting for the food, Ophelia had a casual chat with Kenneth.

She stated, "The Huxley family is indeed not as genuine as the Reyes family. They had hidden agendas when they were on the verge

of transferring the company to me. If I'm not mistaken, the financial health of this clothing company is far from

good."

Ophelia couldn't be sure before, but after visiting the company today, she was certain.

The company had been drained by several parasites. It seemed promising from the outside, but internally, it was weak.

Therefore, Ophelia was not planning to take on such a mess. If Phoebe liked it, she could have it.

Thinking of the Huxley family, Ophelia asked, "I heard they started with a pharmaceutical business, right?

Kenneth replied, "Yeah."

Ophelia inquired, "Could you explain how the top three families in Dellanex rose to the top, aside from their wealth? And what about the Sinclair family? I've always been curious," Kenneth slightly frowned and inquired, "What's there to be curious about?"

Ophelia explained. If Kenneth didn't want to talk
