Hilton Group
"Mr. Hilton, everything has been handled exactly as you instructed."
Lucas didn't even lift his head, just gave a curt nod.
"What was Andrew's reaction?"
"He understood perfectly. The money you gave him was just enough to patch the hole in his company's finances. He'll be grateful, no doubt. But… about Sophia—Mr. Hilton, do you really intend to be this ruthless? If the truth ever comes out, it might—"
Lucas's cold gaze cut him off, sharp as a blade. "How long have you been at my side? Since when did you think you could make decisions for me?"
"No, I just meant—"
"In the past, none of the women around me ever caught your approval. So why Sophia? Don't tell me you've suddenly grown fond of her. Or is it that you think she's too good, too special, and even you can't help but be moved?"
"Of course not, Mr. Hilton! I just mean—you're twenty-eight now. Maybe it's time to settle down."
