"Drive faster! Run all the red lights if you have to—I’ll take full responsibility for any fines!" Kyle nearly shouted as he ordered the driver, his patience wearing thin on the way.Thinking about Samantha's condition, neither Kyle nor Lysia could stay calm throughout the flight. Fortunately, Jean Moreau had lent them a private jet, allowing them to fly directly back to Reeds City and cut their travel time in half. But Samantha couldn’t afford to wait for them for several hours just to sign the surgical consent form. Thus, Kyle had authorized Sebastian to sign on his behalf so the doctors could proceed with the operation in time.Lysia could only hold his hand and gently comfort him. "It’ll be okay, Kyle. The best doctors in Reeds City are doing everything they can to treat Mom. She was fine just a few days ago, so I’m sure they can stabilize her condition again."Kyle’s eyes betrayed his heartbreak. He looked outside the window in silence, unable to respond.If she were in his posit

When Kyle and Lysia arrived at the hospital, the entire Reinhart family was already gathered outside the room, yet not a single word was exchanged among them. The tension was palpable, especially in the expressions of Henry’s parents, Jacob and Jessica. Their faces were laced with irritation, as if they had just gone through a heated argument. The moment they saw Kyle appear, their displeasure became even more evident.Wendy walked over to Kyle and Lysia, her face clouded with concern. “Mom refuses to see us.”“Then I’ll go in and check on her,” Kyle said, stepping forward to open the door, but Wendy quickly stopped him.She shook her head solemnly, sadness evident in her eyes. “It’s best if we wait here until she calls for us. The most important thing right now is not to agitate her.”Hearing this, Kyle withdrew his hand and instead turned his attention to his eldest brother’s family. His voice was cold as he questioned them, “You came here just to piss Mom off, didn’t you, Jacob, Je

"Lysia, you have to stop this partnership!" Catherine suddenly pulled her aside, her voice urgent and laced with concern.Lysia frowned in confusion and asked in return, "Why? I've never interfered in Kingsley Corporation's business matters before. Ryan is more than capable of running the company, and he’s always firm in his decisions. I don’t think I can do anything about it."Catherine’s gaze turned sharp as bullets, locking onto Charlotte with obvious displeasure written all over her face. She clutched Lysia’s arm tightly and insisted, "Not Kingsley Corporation. I’m talking about Reinhart Corporation. You have to convince Kyle to drop this partnership with her.""Why?" Lysia asked again. It was the most crucial question, yet Catherine had yet to provide an answer.Charlotte’s confidence in negotiations was truly impressive, and Lysia couldn’t help but admire her professionalism.

She hadn’t expected the employees to recognize her so quickly, considering that her only public appearance had been at the company’s anniversary c
