That weekend, Natasha and the others settled on a time for lunch.

Kenneth, who rarely showed up, went to the Hamilton residence early in the morning.

Liam was busy picking out his clothes when he saw Kenneth there. The former shot a look over, then said sarcastically, “Hey, wow! Look at that. The elusive Kenneth Hamilton has graced us with his presence. What brings you home?”

Kenneth sat lazily on the couch and replied, “It’s been a while since I last visited, so I thought I’d drop by to see how you’re doing.”

He never actually said what his intentions were, but Liam knew about them all too well.

“You don’t even pick up my calls, but now you’re suddenly interested in my wellbeing?” teased Liam as he checked his own reflection in the mirror.

“I wasn’t deliberately avoiding your calls. The only reason I didn’t pick up was that I was in a middle of a meeting.”

“Uh-huh, sure. You are simply that busy. Go ahead and work. You don’t need to worry about me at all.”

Liam’s sarcastic tone rendered Kenneth speechless.

By then, Liam had finally picked out a nice outfit. He stared at the mirror for a while before nodding happily.

He turned around and saw Kenneth sitting there like a deity. That prompted Liam to roll his eyes. “Okay then, you’ve seen how I’m doing, so you can leave now. It’s almost time, and I have to go.” After saying that, Liam walked right out without waiting for a response from Kenneth. “Let’s go, Dan.”

Kenneth stared. That man definitely did it on purpose.

No one knew what Kenneth was planning when he was sitting on that couch, but out of nowhere, Thea called him. “Kenneth, are you busy?”

“No. I can talk.”

“It’s nothing important, actually. It’s just that there are a couple of things regarding a few of our projects, and I think it’s best if we discuss those matters in person. If you’re free, how about we meet up and have a meal together? We can talk about work then.”

Kenneth didn’t reply.

“Oh, wait. I forgot you have plans for today. Uh, maybe we can meet up after that?” asked Thea.

“There’s no need for that. Didn’t you say you want to have a meal at Infinitium? Let’s meet there,” suggested Kenneth.
