His love

Chapter 323 

Upon hearing lan’s words, Eric couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat for the woman who thought she could climb the social ladder by charming Moses. 

When his superior made a move, it would always be lethal. Yet, deep down, he knew she had it coming. 

He hadn’t probed too deeply. But the word on the street from Moses’s Inner circle painted a bleak picture: a woman with no background, and to top it off, she had a child. 

A woman with no pedigree and a kid working her way into Moses’s good graces? She must’ve pulled some serious strings to deceive the old man. 

Such gold–diggers, who would stop at nothing to marry into wealth, deserved a harsh lesson! Eric didn’t want to dwell on that revolting woman any longer and decided to report the information he had gathered about Willow to his superior. 

“Boss, Ms. Sanford is 22 years old and has been married once before,” Eric reported. lan didn’t bat an eye at Eric’s words. With Willow already having a kid, a previous marriage wasn’t too shocking. 

“Hmm, go on,” lan replied, his demeanor calm and collected. Eric figured lan would shun Willow once he learned about her past marriage. 

After all, the superior’s aversion to anything remotely tainted was legendary, both physically and emotionally. How could he possibly tolerate a woman with a marital history and a kid to boot? 

But lan surprised him by letting him continue. So, Eric reluctantly soldiered on. “Boss, from what I’ve dug up. Ms. Sanford’s ex is Mr. Carter. Their divorce was finalized just a month ago, right when Mr. Carter tied the knot with Skyler.” 

lan, usually as silent as the grave, finally showed a flicker of interest. “Mr. Carter?* 

Eric’s nod was firm. “Yeah, that’s him, Mr. Carter! And, there’s more I uncovered.” 

Taking note of lan’s reaction, Eric proceeded with caution. “If my sources are accurate, that elusive woman Havenpoint was gossiping about, the one Mr. Carter gave a husband–and–wife farewell to, is none other than Ms. Sanford!” 

lan stayed silent, his brows creasing ever so subtly. Upon seeing his superior’s brows furrow, Eric sensed lan might be having second thoughts about Willow. 

Mustering his courage, he ventured, “Boss, truth be told, Ms. Sanford’s past seems a bit tangled. With your germophobia and all, she might not exactly be your cup of tea.” 

Eric wasn’t judging women who had been married and had children. It was just that his superior was on a whole different level. 

Even when a princess from another country came knocking, he didn’t give her the time of day. With someone as high and mighty as lan, how could he possibly entertain the idea of being with a woman with such a complicated past?

Even Eric, who had already prepared to replace the spokesperson for Arena of Glory, was caught off guard by lan’s composed yet decisive words. 

“I don’t mind.” 

“Don’t mind?” Eric’s jaw nearly dropped in astonishment. The shock was so overwhelming that he blurted out without thinking, “Boss, are you saying you’re okay with stepping into a father role?” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“What’s the harm in that?” 

the atmosphere turned Eric was left speechless by lan’s straightforward response. Inside the Rolls–Royce ominously tense. Eric dared not even breathe heavily as he weakly gripped the steering wheel. 

He assumed his superior, known for his concise speech, wouldn’t say more. But to his surprise, lan broke 

the silence. 

“She’s a good woman. I trust her.”
