The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday

Meanwhile, back at Sutton Group, it was already 9 PM, yet no one in the conference room dared to leave.

Since Kieran returned to start the meeting, his mood had been visibly dark. It was clear to anyone with eyes that his mind wasn't on the meeting. He seemed lost in thought. After a while, even Jarrett couldn't stand it any longer.

Leaning towards Kieran, Jarrett whispered, "Mr. Sutton... it's 9 o'clock."

Kieran returned to reality, glancing at his watch to see it was 9 PM.

"Let's call it quits," he said, his voice as cold as ice.

Seeing Kieran so distracted, Jarrett hesitated before saying, "Mr. Sutton, about the proposal we discussed..."

"We'll revisit it," Kieran said, leaving the conference room.

The folks in the room shot nervous looks at each other, all thinking, 'Go over it again? What the heck have we been discussing till now?'

Kieran's demeanor was unusually intimidating, sending shivers down the spines of those present. They had never seen Kieran looking so formidable.
