No Way Back

Chapter 429

However, Connor Luther was the real problem.

He was the future heir of Luther Group and one of the top-notch eligible bachelors in Stormton City. Would he fall for Lila Sutton?

Jane Fowler did not underestimate Lila’s charm. She was afraid that Connor was toying with Lila.

Once the novelty wore off, he would immediately abandon Lila and leave her heartbroken. Jane would never allow it! She had to find an opportunity to test Connor’s sincerity toward Lila.

*Please don’t make fun of me, Janie. Connor is Luther Group’s future successor. There’s such a huge difference between our statuses. How can the Sutton family be worthy of the Luther family?” said Lila.

“It’s impossible between us! We’re just friends. I know my limits. Moreover, a marriage that is not well matched due to family backgrounds won’t be blessed. Connor’s family will ask him to marry a rich young lady of equal status with beauty. and power. Only then will it be helpful to his family and career.”

Jane saw Lila getting more and more disappointed as she spoke. She chuckled and flicked Lila’s forehead. “I’ve not even mentioned marriage yet, and you’re already thinking that far ahead. Didn’t you say you have no romantic feelings for Connor? That you’re just friends? Who would believe you? Look at you; you’re thinking of marrying him!”

“Oh… I… Uh, I…”

Lila stuttered and wanted to deny it hurriedly, but she was at a loss for words.

“It’s not a bad thing to like someone. There’s no need for you to hide it, Lila. I have met Connor before. He’s handsome, well-educated, and has a noble temperament. His special status is indeed a magnet for any young woman.”

“There’s no issue if he doesn’t like you. However, if both of you are interested parties, Then you’re deceiving yourself by denying it. Giving up a relationship because of secular prejudices is not called love,” Jane said matter-of-factly.

Hmm, both were interested parties.
