The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 90

Just a moment ago, Kenny was fuming and roaring about punishing the person who hurt his son. He wanted to make him pay dearly and rot in jail for the rest of his life.

But now, looking at Herman, who admitted to hurting his son, Kenny wished he could turn back the clock a few minutes.

He wished none of this had happened.

He wished his stupid son had never crossed paths with Anastasia.

Kenny was completely shocked, and he couldn't regain his senses. After connecting the dots between Ledford Corporation's crisis and the files displayed on his computer, he finally understood.

The crisis at Ledford Corporation was Herman's revenge.

"Mr. Salstrom, maybe there’s a misunderstanding? You're married? When did that happen?" Kenny asked.

Herman was a well-known bachelor. No one knew he was married.

This was a bombshell.

Kenny thought help had arrived, but this was no help. It was a curse, accelerating the demise of Ledford Corporation.

Herman coldly smirked, "Do I need to report my marriage to you?"

"No, I didn't mean that." Kenny was flustered, and cold sweat began to trickle down his back.

Who Herman wanted to marry and when was none of his business.

"Mr. Salstrom, it seems we've had a huge misunderstanding. Our families don't know each other." Kenny quickly changed his tone. "My foolish son offended your wife. It was a stupid mistake."

Kenny finally got it. Herman's late-night visit wasn't a friendly one. He came to confront him.

And what Kenny initially thought was a friendly gesture was actually a dispute between the offender and the victim.

Herman closed his laptop, his tone icy. "Mr. Ledford, my wife is just an ordinary person. She's timid and can't handle stress. The 4 billion dollars that Ledford Corporation lost is just the interest. I can be unreasonable, and I am protective of my wife. Please understand, Mr. Ledford."

Kenny was speechless.

Kenny knew the reality. He knew he couldn't recover the loss. All he could do was make amends.

Getting investment from Elysian Technologies was now impossible. All he could do now was calm Herman's anger, avoid escalating the dispute, and prevent the rapid collapse of Ledford Corporation.

If Herman didn't increase the pressure, Ledford Corporation still had a chance to survive and recover.

Seeing that Kenny was so understanding, Herman's anger began to subside a bit.

Herman coldly reminded him, "My wife doesn't know who I am. I don't want anyone to disturb her peaceful life. It's late. If you're sincere, apologize to my wife tomorrow. In the meantime, Elysian Technologies will continue to target Ledford Corporation."

Kenny was surprised. Did people still keep their spouse's identity a secret?

Were they secretly married?

But these things didn't matter to Kenny. He didn't care who Anastasia was or what the couple's story was. He just wanted to settle this issue.

For every extra minute he delayed, the losses for Ledford Corporation would become more severe.
