MainNovelChapter 226
"What fiancee? Why did | not know about this?" Lila thought. She looked at Kieran in shock and confusion, her
heart pounding as if it might explode.
"Unc-" Before she could say anything, he raised his hand and gently wrapped it around her waist. The moment
their bodies made contact, her mind went blank.
She understood that he was signaling for her to remain silent, so she closed her mouth. She trusted him.
The man, drenched in cold sweat, stammered, "M-Mr. Morgan, could you please clarify?"
When his gaze met Kieran's, his knees went weak, and he almost collapsed. How did Lila know Kieran?
Wasn't it said that Kieran wasn't interested in women? Why was he holding her?
The reporters were also stunned. Their cameras were still trained on them, the flashes relentless, as if trying to
blind them with the intensity.
This was huge news, and it would definitely blow up! Everyone suddenly realized that Lila had such a powerful

With a fiancé as exceptional as Kieran, how could she possibly be interested in Fletcher or Dorian? It was almost
laughable.
Lila belatedly noticed the long, well-defined hand wrapped around her waist, which was so beautiful it seemed
like a work of art. The back of his hand had faint blue veins, and his fair skin, accentuated by her blue-and-white
hospital gown, looked even fairer, not to mention that it exuded strength without losing any elegance.
Kieran's magnetic, cool voice echoed near her ear as he said, "For the deliberate harm done to my fiancée today
and the recent continuous slander, Morgan Group will pursue legal action against everyone involved."
His gaze lowered, landing on the terrified man. The next second, the man dropped to his knees.
"Mr. Morgan, | was wrong. It was my ignorance. | was blind. Please, spare me."
He didn't want to end up in Kieran's hands! He just wanted to earn sextra cash-how did he end up offending
Kieran?
Kieran tightened his grip on Lila and gently pulled her away from the man.
The man, who was still on his knees,
crawled forward a few steps. "
Morgan, | was wrong. The rumelines
about Lila have nothing to do with me!"
Cole stepped forward, his expression cold and almost identical to Kieran's. "The apology you should be making
isn't to Mr. Morgan."
The man froze, quickly bowing to Lila. "I was wrong, Lila! | was wrong! | was forced to cause trouble for you.
"Please forgivefor this once. | promise it won't happen again. Please! | beg for your forgiveness.
"It's not my fault about the rumors. Today, someone toldto fryou and Terry, but | haven't done anything.
Please letgo!"
The reporters around them lowered their heads, no longer daring to take photos or even look up at the scene.
Cole scoffed, "What's this nonsense? Kneeling in a society governed by law? Are you trying to make Mrs. Morgan
the subject of more insults?"

His voice was cold, his eyes briefly glancing at the live-streaming cameras still running. He couldn't let Lila be
blamed.
Kieran glanced at the bruise on her forehead, his face no longer as warm as it usually was. He lowered his voice,
now gentle and soothing.
"Let's go."
Lila stared at him, then glanced at the surrounding crowd before allowing him to lead her away.
Cole stayed behind to handle the situation, while Terry, who had been quietly observing, felt like a storm was
raging inside him. Even after everyone had left, he still processed what had just happened.
When did Lila becKieran's fiancée?
She was just as confused. As Kieran opened the car door, Lila sat down beside
him, and her thoughts were still in disarray.
"Uncle Kieran, do you even know what you're doing?"
She blinked, slowly regaining her focus, yet her heart felt too unsettled to settle. Why did he have to say she
was his fiancée? How could they... how could they be...
