“About that—” After some contemplation, Kingsley answered, “To be honest, Reene, the owner of Coliree Group used to be my comrade. I merely seized the opportunity to execute the acquisition since he was already planning to do so. He’s also the one who dispatched the Special Forces here—”

“The owner of Coliree Group used to be your comrade?” Reene asked in astonishment. “Is that why you made that bet with Grandpa?”

She had absolute trust in Kingsley and believed everything that he said.

Kingsley nodded. “That’s right. Since we have a strong relationship, executing a contract or two wouldn’t be an issue. I’ll arrange a time for you to meet him when I’m free.”

Reene was so elated that she hugged his neck.

Meanwhile, Cecilia felt a tad jealous when she saw their intimate interaction and coughed before saying, “Don’t get all excited and hug each other yet. Have you thought of what we should do with Mr. Kean?”

After being reminded by Cecilia, Reene suddenly remembered that she was there for a blind date with Andrew. However, she doubted that they could proceed with the date due to the commotion.

“What should we do?” Reene asked anxiously. “If I do not proceed with the blind date, my adoptive parents are going to make a big fuss!”

Just when Reene was feeling distressed about it, her phone suddenly rang.

When she answered it, a magnetic voice could be heard. “Hello, is this Reene Wynn?”

Reene glanced at both Kingsley and Cecilia before she turned on speaker mode. Then, she answered the call and said, “That’s me. You must be Mr. Kean. I’ve reached Ramada Hotel, but—”
