?Chapter 62:


    Rumors had always circted that Kaiden had little interest in personal rtionships. Was this a revtion to the contrary?


    Once the door closed, a brief silence filled the room.


    “Why are you standing there? Sit down!” Kaiden’s voice broke the silence, his tone sharp as he noticed Ellie’s choice of footwear. She was wearing high heels despite her knee injury.


    Ellie, under the firm pressure of Kaiden’s hands, reluctantly resumed her seat on the sofa. Her voice wasced with disbelief.


    “You… You are the president of GT Group?”


    Without answering her question, Kaiden gently lifted the hemline of her dress to examine her bandaged knee. The scabbed wound was unsightly, but thankfully, it didn’t seem to have worsened.


    “Ellie, if you dare disregard my warnings again, I won’t hesitate to take drastic measures,” Kaiden threatened, his voice carrying a serious undertone.


    Ellie quickly adjusted her dress, her mind still reeling from the shock.


    “Wait… Kaiden, you’re the president of GT Group?” she repeated, struggling to align this revtion with the man she knew.


    The supposed ck sheep of the Thorpe family was actually at the helm of a globally acimed corporation? This stature far exceeded his position as the Thorpe family heir, which typically came with associated constraints.


    “You don’t appear too surprised,” Kaiden observed, noting how quickly Ellie seemed to process and ept this new information.


    “It’s unexpected, yet somehow, it makes sense,” Ellie responded swiftly. Her thoughts rapidly aligned as she continued, “Firstly, your long-term deception about your disability under the Thorpe family’s watch suggests you had a powerful aplice—the Stephens family, who always oversaw your medical care, must be part of this ruse. Only if you have considerable power and influence could you persuade them to oppose the Thorpe family.


    Secondly, the opulence of Moon Manor contradicts the narrative of an abandoned son. The antiques alone in the main building are worth a fortune.


    And finally, Jerome, a discerning mogul in the entertainment industry, holds you in high esteem. All of these clues point to your status being much more significant than what was publicly known.

    Moreover, what kind of person must he be to sessfully feign a disability and fool everyone? Of course he was not someone to be taken lightly.”


    “Have you been investigating me?” Kaiden’s fingers brushed Ellie’s chin, his eyes holding a cold, dangerous glint.


    “Not at all,” Ellie responded nonchntly, appearing unfazed by the threat. “I’ve merely been observant and concerned about my husband’s well-being. What if you were hiding some ailment?”


    “Which ailment are you implying? One that affects performance in bed?” Kaiden’s question wasced with innuendo.


    Ellie’s eyes widened in disbelief. Was he really turning a serious conversation into a crude joke?


    “Hmm?” Kaiden’s eyebrow quirked, feigning innocence.


    Trying to maintain herposure, Ellie retorted, “As your wife, it’s my duty to be concerned about all aspects of your health.”
