Chapter 264

    Amelia agreed with Noah and picked up the conversation. "So, our focus isn''t really on Ms. Bolton, but on Bolton Group."


    "Actually, even if we do nothing, my uncle will step in." Noah suddenly brought up Kieran.


    L sensed his certainty and hesitated but didn''t say anything.


    "We won''t worry about what Uncle Kieran does. Let''s do something on our end as well. We''ll attack from both sides, leaving Shannon no chance to cause trouble.


    "You just focus on your filming. We''ll be careful with how we handle things," Amelia said, her tone carefree as if she was there to watch the drama unfold.


    When she wasn''t speaking, she looked like the elegant, confident woman her appearance suggested.


    Vince stood up to follow her.


    Amelia walked a few steps before turning around. "Why aren''t you leaving?"


    Noah pointed at L. "I''m here to find my sister. I haven''t even said a word to her yet, so where am I supposed to go?"


    Amelia raised an eyebrow. "Fine, go ahead, talk."


    Noah sat on the stool where Amelia had been sitting moments ago.


    Amelia was left speechless but smart enough to pull Vince away.


    Noah looked around to ensure no one was listening before speaking up. "I''ll ask you again. Are you really nning to marry Uncle Kieran?"


    L pursed her lips and said, "I didn''t intend to, but..."


    Before she could continue, Noah was already annoyed. "Didn''t intend to? So what you''re saying now is that you n to marry him?"


    "There''s no better option." L fell silent as she stared off into the distance.


    "No better option? I can take you away," Noah said quickly.


    L massaged her temples. "If you take me away, how is that any different from what I''m doing now?


    "And I''ll tell you something else," she continued. "The girl Uncle Kieran liked, she''s probably no longer around."


    Noah was confused. "Hmm? No longer around? Does that mean Uncle Kieran doesn''t like her anymore?"


    "No." She shook her head. "She''s gone. She passed away."


    He fell silent for a moment before saying, "Then you really can''t marry him. No one can take the ce of a deceased person.


    "Haven''t you heard of ''the one that got away''? To Uncle Kieran, that person must have been perfect."


    The two sat face to face, both falling into silence.


    "Maybe I should go back and discuss it with my mom and grandmother first. You can marry me for now, and then when you meet someone you liketer we can get a divorce."


    Noah sighed again. "Our Morgan family''s line is really going to be cut off."


    After he spoke, L only grew more quiet.


    Then she shook her head. "Do you know how big of an impact it would have if I announced that you''re my fiance right now?"


    Noah suddenly realized how naive his idea had been.

    Although he wasn''t involved in the entertainment industry, he knew thatplicated scandals spread quickly, even in the e-sports world.


    If L were to get engaged to Kieran one moment and then marry Noah, his nephew, the next, the bacsh would be enough to force hepout of the industry.


    No one would dare do something like that.


    "So what should we do? If you marry Uncle Kieran now, it''ll be hard for you to find someone elseter."


    Over the past few days, Noah realized that L''s public engagement with Uncle Kieran was ast resort.


    If not for that, the situation now would likely be even worse.


    But if L truly married Kieran, even if they divorcedter, outsiders would avoid her out of fear of Kieran.


    It was clear that, in that case, L would essentially be ruined for life.
