The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Watching Reginald's retreating figure, Matilda muttered with a mix of frustration and disappointment, "Over thirty and still so unreliable. No wonder his dad was considering bringing in a son-in-law to take over the Reed Group..."

Matilda, Reginald's biological mother, had watched her son grow from a mischievous child into a rebellious teenager. At one point, he even went off the rails, getting mixed up with a bad crowd and landing himself in a major mess. If it weren't for Joshua's connections, that incident could have landed Reginald behind bars for life.

After that scare, Reginald cut ties with his questionable friends and came home to help Joshua with the family business. Despite years in commerce and Joshua's mentoring, it was clear Reginald wasn't cut ou for it, his demeanor more suited to an outlaw than a businessman.

No amount of corporate grooming seemed to shed his rough edges or make him a better businessman. Without Joshua constantly cleaning up his messes, the Reed Group would have crumbled long ago. Now, with Joshua seriously injured in a car accident, the future of the Reed family hung in the balance, causing Matilda great worry, especially over her wayward son.

Whether Matilda intended her mutterings to be heard or not, those around her caught every word.
