"George Ken, please keep an eye on her and don't allow her to step out of the room. Don't allow her to contact anyone. If anything happens, just settle it."
Karen Daly meant business. She did not address him by his first name only or called his brother anymore. Instead, her tone commanded obedience and respect.
"Yes!" Taking in Karen Daly's commanding tone, George Ken did not feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, he was ready to act on her words.
"Oh..." Amelia Gray sneered and said, "Nick Black, did you see that? Don't tell me you can't see through the minds of these two siblings. Could it be that you..."
Amelia Gray had been by Kevin Kyle's side for so long. She had worked for Kevin Kyle with Nick Black for many years, so Nick would naturally trust her more.
But what about Karen Daly?
Karen Daly was Kevin Kyle's wife and the mother of Kevin Kyle's child. Kevin Kyle loved her and doted on her. She would never hurt Kevin Kyle.
Although Amelia was pretending to be innocent, Nick Black was not stupid. To be precise, Kevin Kyle, as their master, was not stupid.
If Karen Daly was an imposter, their master would have realized it.
Originally, Nick Black was wary of both of the women before him, but the conversation between Karen Daly and Amelia Gray cleared some of his hesitations.
He had never thought that Karen Daly, who looked weak and innocent, would work so efficiently in light of all these situations. There were some things that he had not thought of, but she had.
Not only did she respond quickly, but she also made firm decisions. She had already planned for a press conference, put Amelia Gray under control, and protected Director Kevin from further harm...
Nick Black couldn't resist looking at Karen Daly with a renewed sense of respect.
In the past, he looked down on her and thought she was a weak woman who hid under their master's wings and could do nothing.
Who knew that when their master got into trouble, she could stand out and work effectively to control the entire situation.
On the other hand, looking at Amelia Gray's attitude, it was as if she had known that Director Kevin would collapse one day.
Despite knowing that Director Kevin and Old Master Kyle were at odds with each other, especially since Director Kevin had been monitoring Old Master Kyle's actions, she still proposed to ask Old Master Kyle to step out and take control of Rovio several times.
Rovio had its achievements today all because of Kevin Kyle. Kevin had always been exceptionally professional, and he planned his businesses well. Even in his absence, the employees were definitely able to continue with their daily operations. They did not need Old Master Kyle.
The news of Kevin Kyle's medical condition got leaked out and the public was painting the news much worse than the actual situation was. While that move was already suspicious, Amelia Gray insisting that Old Master Kyle should return and manage Rovio felt even more suspicious.
After pondering on these for a while, Nick Black figured out which side he should stand on.
He first glanced at Amelia Gray, then turned to look at Karen Daly and said respectfully, "Mrs. Kyle, in light of Director Kevin's medical condition, if you have any orders, just tell them to me. I'll have them executed on your behalf!"
"Assistant Black, thank you!" Karen Daly did not thank him because he chose to trust her, but because he still stood firmly by Kevin Kyle's side even though he had been knocked down. Nick did not listen to the instigation of a villain.
Amelia Gray screamed, "Nick Black, are you crazy? You know that those two siblings have ill intentions, and you still want to help them. Are you delusional?"
Nick Black believed in Karen Daly. In other words, Karen could easily summon the other people under Kevin Kyle in the future. Amelia Gray's plan seemed to be shattering into pieces.
"Amelia Gray, that's enough. You should take care of yourself." Nick Black responded coldly to Amelia Gray.
