Chapter 297 Test Of Trust

• Hayden could sense Malissa’s discomfort even before he saw how pale her face was. He cursed Ethan inwardly for the things that he had intentionally said to trigger such a painful reaction from Malissa.
• The discussion about the heir of Torex was uncalled for, although his response was truthful and factual. Then all those bullshit questions about Jack and what that dead man wanted. No matter how fond he was of Jack, he had been dead and gone for many years already. It was time that the living moved on with their lives and did what was best for the current times and the current situation.
• He did not love or respect Jack any less than before, but things have clearly changed, and he was just trying to keep the fort together while fulfilling the promise that he made to his elder brother. Once again, he wondered why life was so bothersome. Here he was acting like the proper boss-to-be of Torex while Malissa looked like she was about to faint right next to him. If this wasn’t what a disaster looked like, then he probably had misunderstood the meaning of the word his entire life.
