Chapter 2344
“But I’ve heard rumors he was born out of wedlock, and that’s why some were hesitant to follow his lead…”
“Shush! Don’t talk about that here.
What if someone overhears? Do you want to be thrown out?”
The man wisely fell silent.
Just moments ago, the meeting room had been bustling with attendees.
Now, only a few lingered.
The senior members of the Shaw family had not yet departed.
They kept signaling to Kyson’s assistants.
The assistants took a glance at Kyson as he read a document on his laptop, bowed to the senior Shaw family members, and then left the room, closing the door with care.
Once the room had cleared of all but the essential personnel, the elder members approached Kyson with a serious question.
“Kyson, we’ve heard you went on a blind date with the Perez family’s daughter.
How did it turn out? When do you plan to get engaged?”
Kyson, showing no emotion, replied indifferently, “I wasn’t impressed.
There will be no follow-up.

His brief response clearly conveyed his feelings about the blind date.
The elders exchanged glances, their expressions turning sour.
One of them questioned, “What didn’t you like? She’s beautiful and kind.
Her family would be a good match for ours.

Another chimed in, “Mr.
Perez has been here several times wanting to meet you.
Why don’t you see him? You need to talk to them to really find out if you and the girl could work out.
Don’t you think?”
Another added, “He’s right.

They continued to press him.
Gathering around Kyson, they persisted in their questioning.
Initially, they doubted Kyson’s ability to lead the Shaw family and revitalize the Shaw Group after the damage Mekhi had caused.
Consequently, they intentionally erected numerous obstacles to test his capabilities.
They also prohibited Kyson from dating, fearing it might distract him, which would render him less effective in addressing the Shaw Group issues.
However, over the past few years, they realized Kyson was deeply committed to the group.
He had avoided significant errors, and under his leadership, the Shaw Group had progressively improved.
Thus, their concerns shifted from his professional abilities to his marriage life.
It took them a month to persuade Kyson to agree to the blind date, only for it to fall apart quickly.
“Kyson, you need to take your time with relationships.
We understand you might not Like her right now, but you could at least try dating her, couldn’t you? We think you two would be a good match…”
