Chapter 225
The man was so frightened that his voice trembled. “M–Mr. Morgan, what brings you here? Am I blocking your way? I’ll move aside right away.”
The man, who had been arrogant and self–righteous just a moment ago, instantly changed his demeanor. He lowered his head, not daring to look at Kieran Kieran’s sharp gaze felt like a blade that could dismantle him, and just being looked at by him made the man breakout in a cold sweat. He remained calm, his cold tone unchanged as he repeated, “Who did you just call disgusting?”
He stepped closer to Lila, and Cole hurried to follow.
Kieran was angry–wry angry. Cole could only hope this so–called brave reporter hadn’t done anything else wrong.
He was still a little confused, but the man realized that while he had done some unspeakable things over the years, he had never offended Kieran. He felt a slight relief, wiping away the sweat from his forehead before answering.
“Mr. Morgan, I was talking about Lila, that bitch by your side. She’s still an employee of your company, yet she ignores Morgan Group’s values, uses her power for personal gain, and coerces other actors into sleeping with her.
“It’s utterly shameless! You can’t keep someone like this in your company; she’ll ruin Morgan Group’s reputation,” he spoke with righteous indignation.
Kieran squinted slightly, a barely discemible smile tugging at his lips. His expression was no longer as cold as before.
Lila narrowed her eyes, glancing between the man and Kieran, feeling that the situation had become absurd.
Cole clicked his tongue internally. This idiot had no idea that the more Kieran seemed calm, the angrier he actually was.
The man didn’t realize this. Upon seeing Kieran’s calm demeanor, he thought he had made the right call, feeling more at ease and thinking Lila’s career would be

“Fletcher Brooks,” the man quickly answered, sneaking a
Lila was speechless. Kieran’s gaze was somewhat indifferent, his face refined, and his demeanor was cold and untainted, making it hard for anyone to approach him easily.
A faint, almost imperceptible smirk appeared on his lips as he spoke with a chilling tone that matched his aura. “How does he compare to me?”
The question was void of emotion, yet it shocked the crowd. Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief. Did… did Kieran just say that?
Lila, who had remained still, also showed signs of surprise. What did he just say?
How could someone like him, so pure and untouched by the world, ask how he compared to another? A celestial being and an ordinary man possibly be to compare?
what could there
Confused and rattled by the question, the man stammered, “Mr. Morgan, are you joking? What’s your status, and what’s his? I wouldn’t dare to compare you to
him ”
Before he could finish speaking, Kieran’s eyes darkened. “If that’s the case, why should my fiancée lower herself down and get involved with another man?
At those words, everyone’s eyes nearly popped out. What? Kieran had a fiance? When did that happen? Who was his fiancée?
This was such huge news, yet there had been no word of it outside. The Morgan family was low–key, but wasn’t this too low–key? And what did his statement just now mean? How did this situation shift to Kieran and his fiancée?
Everyone’s brains were racing, trying to make sense of the layers of connections. Even Cole’s eyes widened, What had Kieran just said?
