Chapter 569

Keira seized the photograph and tried to yank it back.

But to her surprise, Vera held it down, refusing to let go.

Keira frowned. "Scott said he would show it to me."

Vera glared at her fiercely. "I won't allow him to show it to you, and you can't see it!"

Keira frowned. "Vera, don't go too far!"

Vera sneered. "Do you think I don't know what you're up to? You just want to find old Mr. Martin's illegitimate daughter to negotiate with him, right? But I'm telling you, it won't work. Even if you found her, old Mr. Martin wouldn't care about it!"

Keira sneered back. "If that's the case, then why won't you give me the photograph?"

Vera clenched her jaw, looked at the photograph, and then scoffed. "You want me to give you the photograph? Would old Mr. Martin agree? That's his privacy!"

Upon hearing this, Keira immediately turned to old Mr. Martin.

Scott then said, "Grandpa, Miss Olsen and Mr. Horton have been in Clance for so many years. It's quite possible they know your daughter! Are you sure you don't want their help?"

Old Mr. Martin frowned. "That won't be necessary."

Keira said, "Mr. Martin, what if I do this for you as a favor? I won't stop you from arranging an engagement between Vera and Scott!"

Old Mr. Martin hesitated.

Scott said, "Grandpa! Think about it carefully!"

Old Mr. Martin said, "Then let her have a look. But let's be clear: even if she provides a clue and finds my daughter, I won't help her. Once you and Vera are engaged, there's nothing left to discuss!"

Keira nodded. "Okay."
