Chapter 263

    L had been busy on set for most of the morning when Amelia arrived.


    She sat beside L, acting like a chatty neighbor discussing thetest gossip. "Do you know who Shannon is?"


    Amelia didn''t think much of her after she had caused some trouble. After all, Kieran was the type to protect his own, and no one would dare to stir trouble in front of him.


    But surprisingly, Shannon was bold enough to do just that.


    Did she really think Kieran wouldn''t dare to do anything because of her connection to the Bolton family?


    L turned around in confusion. "Isn''t she the Bolton family''s eldest daughter? Michael sounded like her younger brother."


    "Right, I forgot you know Michael. Let''s put that aside for now. Do you think Uncle Kieran would handle her?"


    L pursed her lips, unsure of how to respond to that.


    Was the incidentst night serious enough for Kieran to step in?


    Would they even be able to find solid evidence?


    "What are you talking about?"


    Vince appeared out of nowhere from behind.


    Amelia jumped in surprise. "How did you walk so quietly?"


    Then, she looked at him warily. "What are you here for?"


    Vince, a big-time CEO, didn''t act at all high and mighty. He casually grabbed a stool and sat down next to them.


    "Mr. Joyce said you were here, and my uncle asked me toe apany you."


    He spoke so casually, but Amelia nearly had her eyes pop out. "Wait, are you serious? You came just because they told you to?


    "Are you really going to let them push you into an arranged marriage? Our personalities don''t even match."


    "What''s wrong? With your terrible personality, you''re perfect for this quiet type. If you get married, you won''t even argue," Noah said, approaching slowly.


    Amelia was so annoyed that she wanted to punch him. His mouth was always running, and he was always causing trouble.


    He and Kieran were both from the Morgan family, but there was such a big difference between them.


    L looked over in confusion. "Noah, what are you doing here?"


    Noah, who had been leaning against a pir, straightened up instantly. "Wait, why does it feel like every time you call me Noah, I''m losing years of my life?"


    Amelia smirked. "L is my best friend. Once she marries Uncle Kieran, you''ll have to call me aunt. Got it, kid?"


    Noah nearly kicked her stool over. This brat was always digging a hole for herself.


    "I''m here for something important,"


    he said, rolling his eyes. "What are


    you nning to do about Shannon? Let me go deal with her. We


    Morgans don''t just sit back and


    ept insults.


    Amelia looked at him with a surprised gaze. So, Noah really cared about L this much?


    But as her thoughts swirled, the smile slipped from her face.


    "Wait a minute, Noah. You have such a beautiful sister at home, and never even said a word about her. What, did you serve time or something? Why so tight- lipped?"


    She was obsessed with good looks, yet he hadn''t introduced her earlier!


    Why was he keeping this gem hidden from everyone? How unforgivable!


    Noah snorted, pointing at the spot next to Amelia. It looked like she was almost hugging L.


    As the heiress to the Joyce family, Amelia, who was usuallyposed, seemed to be clinging to L constantly.


    He rolled his eyes. "I''ve been trying to prevent this situation, but no matter how many precautions took,


    I never expected that you would be


    the one to mess it up!"


    Amelia almost pped him, but seeing his smug expression, she couldn''t help but smile.


    "Are you all nning to deal with Shannon''s problem?" Vince asked, pulling their attention back to the matter at hand.


    Amelia replied, "This isn''t the first time she''s caused trouble. She didn''t seed this time, but I''m sure she''ll try again.


    "Who knows what shameless tricks she''ll use next? If that''s the case, we might as well solve the problem sooner."


    L put down what she was holding. "We don''t have any evidence that she did anything wrong. If we take action against her now, it''ll only bring trouble to us."


    "Solving the problem doesn''t mean we have to beat her up," Noah said, crossing his arms and leaning against the pir.


    "In the Bolton family, Shannon and


    Michael are the only ones of their generation. Michael wasn''t


    interested in managing the


    nov


    independently.


    "Shannon was supposed to take over thepany, but because of her rtionship with my uncle, she hasn''t been involved with Bolton Group in recent years.


    "So now, her parents are still running thepany. If the situation escted, Michael wouldn''t be much use, and Shannon would have to step in once more."
