The Bound Between Us

Chapter 639

Tavon was determined to reclaim the company, partly because he worried Sean might be sweet-talked by the Stantons and end up working for their benefit instead.

Ashley, despite being halfway through life, couldn't see things clearly. She always took her family's side, not realizing that her husband should be her main support. Instead, she constantly used her family's influence to overpower the Mortons. Tavon was upset about this but didn't dare openly challenge the Stantons. His wife didn't understand his concerns, so he was naturally surprised when his youngest daughter did.

After a moment, Tavon chuckled, saying with a hint of pride, "Sandy, you've really surprised me. You've been sick and in the hospital these years, but I never realized my daughter could outshine my son."

"Dad, I'm sorry for causing you all this worry. I'm not well-versed in business, so I can't help much with the company. What I just said was actually Sean's message to you. Just relax, Dad. If you want the Morton Group to grow and thrive, Sean will make it happen." Sandy used Sean as a shield, advising, "Now that you're back, take it easy at home. Try to patch things up with Mom. After all, a couple should cherish their time together."

Tavon just smiled, not saying anything.

Sandy seized the moment to ask, "Dad, have you been in touch with Anastasia? When is she coming to Willowbrook? Things were tense last time, and Sean and I have been wanting to make amends."

"Anastasia's caught up and can't come to Willowbrook right now. She's not feeling well," Tavon replied, skirting around Anastasia's pregnancy and making up a reason: "Pattie is young, and after being kidnapped last time, she became mute. It's left her with a huge psychological scar, and Anastasia needs to stay with her."
