Chapter 191:

? ? ? ? ?

The Moss family, while not extravagant, wielded considerable influence, a fact of which Caden was well aware. The Ward family was at the head, and the Moss family was not far behind. Furthermore, the older members of both families had shared a strong friendship for many years.

Since Caden had initially sought their help, the Moss family's proposal could not be easily rejected without causing offense. Rejecting it would be seen as a slight.

Breaking the silence, Ciara asked, “You are aware that Yolanda has had feelings for you since she was young, right?”

Caden replied indifferently, “No.”

“Well, now you are,” Ciara added.

“That’s not particularly good news,” Caden replied dryly.

Ciara agreed. She had never liked Yolanda, finding her moody and high maintenance. While Yolanda was certainly intelligent, she was also delicate and overly spoiled by her father, Dorian, who indulged her every whim. If Yolanda joined the Ward family, Ciara knew what the outcome would be: she would have to be treated like royalty.

Ciara sighed. “In any case, I would prefer a cheerful and optimistic granddaughter-in-law.”

Caden replied, “I see marriage as a business.”

This irritated Ciara slightly, but then she remembered the long illness that had plagued her for years. She held back her frustration. “Don't you have any feelings for the woman you're currently dating?”

Caden looked down, his expression unreadable. “If I had feelings for her, I would have introduced you to her already.”

He hadn't brought her, which meant, in Caden's eyes, that he had no feelings for her. Ciara's heart sank.

“Do what you think is best,” he said softly. “Yolanda likes you, and you need her support. Maybe you’ll develop feelings for her after you get married.”

Caden felt nothing. He looked at the plan with the same indifference he had towards his routine work.
