Chapter 523
Livia, who noticed his puzzlement, said, âMy father's Royce Shore.â âOh, I see...â Roman paused. His
eyes bulged a second later, and he gasped. "W-Who did you say your father is? The richest man in
Skyriv, Royce Shore?!â
Livia nodded indifferently.
Roman was antsy now. The richest man in Skyriv was not planning to acquire Hall Furnishing, was
he? Livia did not read too much into it as she said, âUncle Roman, if you're okay with it, I'll draft a
contract on the spot and we can sign it so you can get ready to go to Skyspring.â
There was a multitude of expression changes on Roman's face before he gritted his teeth and asked,
âMay I know why you're helping me?â
âBecause Kayson wants to help you,â Livia answered after a slightly surprised pause. Roman then
shifted his eyes to Kayson, who was next to her, in astonishment. âHow do y-you know me?â
"Oh, I know Uncle Jason and I heard about your plight from him, so I thought I could offer you a
hand,â Kayson replied with a smile.
Roman sighed in relief. As long as this was not an acquisition ... He would not be able to rival Royce
Shore's massive wealth and resources otherwise.
âLooks like I have to thank Jason and you two properly. You know what? I'll buy you dinner tonight
right here. What do you think?â
Kayson thought that rejecting him did not seem decent, so he nodded. âAs you wish.â
Roman hurried downstairs to ask the boss for a deluxe room. He wanted a fancy room, but they
were all already reserved.
After he sat back down, he asked with a smile, âKayson, you don't mind if I invite my wife and kid
along, do you?â
"Of course not. I'm friends with Talia too,â Kayson replied, smiling.
This surprised Roman, who chuckled. âI didn't expect my daughter to be so lucky!â They chatted for
over an hour before Yvonne and Talia came. Just as the mother and daughter walked in, Yvonne
widened her eyes and exclaimed, âWhy are you here?â She was referring to Kayson.
Roman sounded surprised as well. âYou know each other?â
Yvonne's brows were furrowed as she huffed, âHe's the
one I told you about.â
This baffled Roman, as he found it unbelievable. His wife had said that a delinquent was hanging
out with their daughter. Which part of Kayson made him look like a delinquent, though? He knew
that his wife must have been biased again.
âI'm not eating.â
Yvonne did not want her daughter having anything to do with Kayson.
Roman scowled and snapped, âSit down!â
That frightened Yvonne, causing her to feel wronged and angry.
âDo you know how much trouble Kayson just helped me deal with? If it weren't for him, our entire
family would be done for!â Roman said coldly.
It felt like an ice bucket put out Yvonne's anger as she gasped, âWhat are you talking about?â

Roman briefly recounted what had happened today, and Yvonne was stunned upon listening to him.
Then, she looked at Livia, unable to believe that she was the richest manâs daughter.
Roman sighed and looked at Kayson apologetically.â Kayson, you... Don't mind my wife if sheâs said
anything to offend you.â
Kayson shook his head calmly. âShe hasn't. Don't worry about it, Uncle Roman.â
Yvonne sat on pins and needles. She had really gotten carried away by her bias this time and she
didnât even know how to make up for it.
As for Talia, who was next to her, her heart felt empty, and she stayed silent the moment she saw
Livia sitting next to Kayson.
