Pushing Heather away, he said, “I’m fine.”

Laura stepped forward and asked, “Father, are you no longer angry?”

Dexter nodded. “With Arnold’s incident, the Olsen family will surely be affected. I hope you’ll be more cautious in the coming days. Mr. Olsen… is getting old.”

Laura understood. “I’ve pretty much mastered managing the family business now, so there’s no need to worry.”

As they conversed, they failed to notice Heather, who stood to the side, her fingers subconsciously clenched, her expression conflicted.

“What are you thinking about?” Dexter asked.

Heather snapped back to reality. “I was just wondering if our wedding will be affected since something happened to Arnold.”

Laura shot a sideway glance.

Dexter replied, “You seem to not care about how your sister is doing at all.”

His comment stunned Heather. “It’s not like that. My mother is with Sum now. Since she’s emotionally unstable, I’m afraid she’ll become even more agitated if she sees me… so…”

She was flustered, but Dexter merely smiled. “I’m just saying. The wedding will proceed as planned. The next few days will be tough on you.”
