After a moment, Faith nodded.

"But, Mr. Morgan, you'll need to deal with the Moore family for a few more days, since the shareholders' meeting is about a month away."

But how could they stall the Moore family? Everyone was clearly thinking about this.

"How about this?" Lila pursed her lips. "You can tell your father that Kieran and I are getting a divorce. Isn't there a cool-off period for a divorce? That would buy us a month."

Hearing her suggestion, Kieran didn't know whether to laugh or be angry. He reached out and pinched her earlobe.

Lila slapped his hand away but then hugged his arm. "Isn't it a good idea?"

Even though he knew she was playfully acting spoiled, Kieran couldn't bring himself to get angry.

He nodded slightly at Faith before leading Lila out of the room. As soon as they stepped outside, he raised his hand and tapped her forehead.

"Lila, I'll say it again—we are not getting a divorce."

Lila looked at him seriously. "I never said we are. It's fake."

"Even if it's fake, it's not happening."

He held her hand and walked forward slowly. "Let me ask you—what were you thinking when you first heard Faith say she couldn't have children?"
