“Does he have any notable background?” Rosalynn asked.


    After a pause, Edwin replied, “He’s sort of Aldrich Hughes’ uncle-inw, a distant rtive.


    ”


    Aldrich’s rtive? Rosalynn’s eyes flicked towards Brian, a subtle shift in her expression.


    It seemed Aldrich had a hand in running the Jeyrith branch.


    Piecing it all together, she was sure Betsy’s sudden transfer to headquarters wasn’t coincidental.


    Brian immediately connected the dots.


    He expression grew serious.


    “Edwin, after you return, send me a full report on Betsy Ruiz.


    ”


    “Consider it done, Mr.


    Hughes.


    There’s another matter.


    Apparently, there’s unrest at Skyline Garment Works.


    Some employees are causing a scene, and I suspect they’re close associates of Carson Moran, Aldrich’s cousin.


    ”


    Brian looked grim.


    “I see.


    ”


    So, Aldrich was behind this.


    Was this a ploy to get him and Betsy acquainted? To sow discord between him and Rosalynn?


    After all, a stable family life was a desirable quality for apany leader.


    A public scandal could sway thepany senior shareholders against Brian, potentially giving Aldrich an opening.


    What a farsighted man.


    Rosalynn’s eyes narrowed.


    The name Carson sounded familiar.


    Where had she…


    Her eyes soon shed in realization.


    Wasn’t he the manager involved in the construction project’s shoddy


    work?


    She’d exposed him, but he threatened her with jail.


    Aldrich’s cunning was undeniable.


    He’d been meticulously nning for a long time, all under the radar.


    “Honey, does a honey trap work on you?” Rosalynn tilted her head at Brian.


    Brian’s stern expression softened slightly.


    He took her hand.


    “If it’s you, it works.


    Others would fail.


    ”


    “But that Betsy looks just like me,” Rosalynn pointed out, her voiceced with amusement.


    “Doesn’t that work?”All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    Brian’s face hardened a touch.


    “It’s a cheap trick.


    I’m not that superficial.


    What attracts me is a person’s spirit, not their looks.


    ”


    Rosalynn chuckled, ncing at him.


    “Someone clearly ran away from his wife because she was ugly.


    ”


    Brian’s demeanor shifted instantly.


    He pulled her close and kissed her cheek.


    “Honey, I told you it was a misunderstanding.


    I was silently protesting our arranged marriage, alright?”
