His Lordship Alexander Kane
Chapter 0415
âFather finally stopped opposing my marriage to Alexander...â
In the office, Callie stared intently at the note in her hand. Her delicate shoulders trembled slightly.
In the northern regions, the Xanthos family and the Kane family were both among the four major wealthy families, with complex
relationships involving both cooperation and competition.
Since that incident years ago, the engagement between the two had become nothing more than at piece of paper, vehemently
opposed by every member of the Xanthos family.
Surprisingly, her father finally changed his mind and approved her marriage to Alexander.
âPrepare the backup!â The emboldened Callieâs beautiful eyes shimmered as she softly instructed the young female assistant in
front of her. âCancel all appointments, I need to attend to my private
matters.â
There was another sentence she kept to herself.
What she was about to face was the most important thing in her life and with the most important
person.
Meanwhile, in the northern region, at the Kane family...
After meeting Patrick and Susanne, the head of the Kane family, Caleb, returned to the Kane family.
He was satisfied with Amber as his daughter-in-law.
She was gentle with a strong personality, and she dearly loved his son. Now, the New Chesire Group had already taken over
three cities around Olâ Mare... Such a daughter-in-law, though not comparable to Callie Xanthos, was no problem at all.
As long as Alexander adored Amber, Caleb would support it.
âMister Kane.â Outside the study, the Kane familyâs chief steward, Antonio, dressed in a gray robe, slightly bowed outside,
whispering, âMiss Xanthos is here, already in the outer hall.â
Callie Xanthos?
Caleb raised an eyebrow slightly, then spoke in a low voice, âLet her in.â
Antonio hesitated for a moment and bowed again. âYes.â
In less than half a minute, Callie came gracefully.

She did not bring her female assistant, entering the Kane family study alone. On her youthful. radiant face was a touch of shy
joy, a far cry from the Icy female CEO in the office.
âHello, Uncle Caleb.â
She sat across from Caleb in a natural manner, her voice gentle and respectful. âItâs been so long. and you still have the same
charisma, Uncle Caleb. I have come to visit, and I hope that Iâm not
troubling you.â
The girl remained as polite as ever.
Caleb held a scroll of ancient text in his hand, smiled at Callie, and spoke, âOur two families have a long-standing relationship.
Thereâs no need to be formal. If you have something to say, go
ahead.â
Callie blushed slightly, then gently opened her lips and uttered one word, âAlex.â
As expected.
Caleb set down the ancient text, pondered for a moment, then shook his head with a chuckle. âI
knew it would be about this matter. However.....â
He sighed softly and continued, âYou should know that my son has been expelled from the family. He has no relation to my Kane
family, let alone your Xanthos family, which is even more
incompatible.
âMoreover, the Xanthos family has strict rules. How could they tolerate a castaway becoming
their son-in-law?â
He gazed at Callieâs slightly pale face and smiled. âCallie, if you donât mind, I'll take you as my adopted daughter in the Kane
family. I...â
Callieâs expression changed.
She came to fulfill the engagement between her and Alexander. If she became Caleb's adopted daughter, would that not make
her and Alexander adoptive siblings?
The engagement would be completely annulled with no hope left!
âI've heard about everything Alex has done in OI' Mare.â she said after a while.
Without knowing how much time had passed, Callieâs face gradually regained its color. She stared at Caleb, speaking with firm
determination, âRegardless of his success or downfall in Olâ Mare, even if he ends up on the streets or becomes wicked, I will still
marry him. No one can stop me.
not even you!â

Having said that, she stood up, bowed slightly to Caleb, and turned to leave.
âThe Xanthos family...â
Watching Callieâs retreating figure, Calebâs gaze gradually became solemn.
Callie might be deeply infatuated with Alexander, and even if the engagement was canceled, her actions would not be too
irrational. However, the same could not be said for the Xanthos family.
Given Alexander's remarkable achievements in Olâ Mare, the Xanthos family must have noticed.
Such an outstanding young talent would undoubtedly be sought after by the Xanthos family at any
cost.
If the recruitment failed, the most likely outcome would be direct destruction.
