Amelia clicked on the recommended video, which was an interview clip.

On the screen, Kieran was clad in a black suit, his demeanor restrained, and his expression cold and solemn. The wedding ring on his finger was dazzling under the bright light.

The reporter asked, "Mr. Morgan, what are your thoughts on the car accident from back then and the Morgan Group's core technology leak? Do you believe the police reopening the case suggests that Mr. and Mrs. Hart's deaths were not accidental?" The man lifted his gaze, his steady. "There are indeed many suspicious points in the case. Morgan Group will fully cooperate with the authorities to uncover the truth. The murderer will not go unpunished." The video lasted about ten minutes, with the reporter asking questions and Kieran providing answers. The interview revolved mostly around the cases.

It was only during the final question that Kieran's expression shifted ever so slightly from his usual composed demeanor.

The reporter asked, "I noticed you're wearing a wedding ring. Have you already tied the knot?" "Yes," Kieran replied. "My wife is Ms. Lila Hart." The reporter followed up, "If I'm not mistaken, Henry Hart and his wife were Ms. Hart's parents. While their deaths may not have been the Morgan family's intention, Morgan Group undoubtedly bears sresponsibility. Don't you think this might affect your relationship?" Kieran touched his wedding ring lightly. "The truth is indeed cruel, but cruelty is no reason to bury it." The video ended there, and the room fell into silence.

Amelia stood up and gently pulled Jamie out of the bedroom. As the door shut, Lila curled up on the bed, hugging her knees, motionless.

Meanwhile, at the Morgan residence, the atmosphere in the living room was equally heavy.

Jasmine was the first to speak. "We still haven't been able to contact James. He's always been good at hiding." Over the years, because of her resentment towards James, she never sought him out and had no idea where he lived.

"Morgan Group's stock prices are dropping, and the online discussions about us are becoming increasingly problematic." Kieran nodded, as though he had anticipated these outcomes.

"First, we need to find James and resolve these two cases," he said calmly. "Let's also ensure Mrs. Morgan Senior doesn't find out about this. I'll handle Morgan Group's reputation and stock issues." As he stood to leave, Nicole called after him. "Kieran, how has Lila been doing lately?" Since Lila left that day, none of them had dared to visit her.

Her parents had died for Morgan Group's sake.

Outsiders might claim that the Morgan family had given Lila a hand raised her. But in truth, it was the Morgan family who owed her.

Noah and Bryce also turned to look at Kieran, clearly curious about news of Lila.

He touched his wedding ring and said, "She was sick a couple of ago but has been feeling better get lately. Let's not disturb her for now." Despite his words, he found himself driving to Milton Street after leaving.

His car rolled into the residential area but stopped before reaching her building. Raising his head gave him a view of her apartment.

In her bedroom, Lila stood by the window. From where she stood, she could see the entrance to the residential area clearly.

She clearly caught sight of the black Maybach driving in, and she watched as it stopped where only half of it was visible from her position.

The person inside never stepped out.

A knock on the door sounded, and Amelia entered, carrying a blanket. She draped it over Lila's shoulders, noticing her thin clothes.

"What are you looking at? Do you want to play with Nova for a bit?" Lila retracted her gaze. "I'll tidy up and change. Let's go for a walk downstairs later." Hearing her suggestion to go out,

Amelia felt much more relieved.

She'd been staying here for the past few days worried that tila might do Something drastic fo

When Lila stepped out, she noticed the living room was empty except for Amelia and found it strange. "Jamie and Teddy have an event tomorrow, so they left first," Amelia explained.

Lila nodded, picking up Nova and speaking softly, "Con, let's go for a walk."

Kieran thought he was hallucinating when he saw the slender figure om emerge from the building. The beige long down coat accentuated her tall figure, and the knit hat made her y face appear even smaller. In her arms was the tiny calico kitten, still young and yet to grow into its full features, but its beauty was already evident.
