Chapter 279 The Winters Group Crisis

Kevin was kinda taken aback. "Wait, what? You two were head over heels back then. How'd you end up splitting?"

Derek just shook his head with a smirk. "Long story, man. One I'll tell you over a beer sometime. But for now, I should let you two catch up. Duty calls." Derek spun around, hopped in his car, and took off.

As his car vanished, Kevin suddenly blurted out, "Do you like him?"

Elise didn't hold back. "He's Leo's dad, but I can't remember dating him. The injury I got was from his ex, Cordelia. She's also the one chasing me. But I can't remember who I am now, so I can't pin anything on her. That's why I'm thinking about trying desensitization therapy."

Hearing this, Kevin's usually chill face turned icy. "No way I'm letting you do that! Dad went through hell to find you. I can't let anything mess this up. It had to be him who screwed up back then. In school, girls were lining up to have his baby." Elise looked at him, curious. "You still mad he married Cordelia? That woman's a piece of work. You're lucky you didn't end up with her."

Kevin gave Elise a complicated look and muttered, "She wasn't always like that. She used to be sweet. Derek's wild ways must've changed her."

Hearing him defend Cordelia, Elise felt weird. Kevin's look seemed off, like he was seeing someone else in her. She wondered if he thought she looked like Cordelia.

Meanwhile, at the Winters Group headquarters, Julian knocked lightly on Sebastian's office door before entering. Sebastian was on the phone, looking stressed, his brows all furrowed.

Sebastian finally hung up and turned to Julian. "Cordelia still not talking?"

Don't we have a childhood photo of him? We can use AI to age-progress it. It'll make finding him easier." Sebastian nodded. "We're on it. By the way, how's Alissa? Last
