Chapter 633:

Carole’s face paled.

“1…1…” But she couldn’t muster a retort.

Kellan was known for following through on his threats; a single word from him could ruin the Perry family.

As the heiress, Carole had always been the center of attention. But here, she felt dismissed, humiliated.

“Kellan, if you don’t want me around, I’ll leave,” she said, her voice softening. “But I really do care for you. You can have as many women as you want, but when it comes to marriage, shouldn’t you choose someone with a similar background?” Without waiting for his reply, she turned and walked away, hoping to stir doubts.

But ironically, it was Kellan who felt the weight of her words.

“Allison,” he said softly, “I don’t care about others’ opinions. My only fear is you leaving me.”

Allison’s lips curved into a slight smile at his uncharacteristically vulnerable expression.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Lloyd. You’re already my partner in crime. There’s no escaping now.” She wrapped her arms around his neck.

“Shall we continue with breakfast?” she asked playfully.

“Of course.”

Without another word, Kellan scooped her up, his gaze captivating. “Or we can continue with something else.” But just then, Carole, who hadn’t gone far, caught sight of them.

Her chest tightened with rage.

Click, click, click—

She took several photos, her expression dark. She sent them to her father with a message. “Dad, it’s not that I’m not trying hard enough, but Kellan truly cares for this woman.”

Minutes later, her father Jax Perry called. “Useless! What did he say?”

Carole replayed the scene in her mind, a chill creeping over her. No matter how bold she acted in public, her father’s voice always unsettled her.

“He… he brushed off the marriage proposal and even threatened to end the partnership between our families.”

Jax’s tone was sharp with anger. “Then find a way to make it happen. Even if you have to seduce him, you will marry into the Lloyd family!”

Carole took a shaky breath, her voice hesitant. “Is there no other way? He’s not someone we can easily manipulate.”

But Jax cut her off sharply, seeing right through her hesitation.

“Stop making excuses.”

Carole swallowed, unable to respond.

“You can’t handle this simple task?” Jax’s voice was laced with disgust. “Listen, the Greenfield Group is out of options. Do whatever it takes — seduce him, get rid of that woman, whatever. But you will marry Kellan!”
