From Ashes of Scandals to His Embrace novel Chapter 438

“It’s been a while. I asked you here today because of Taylor. I’m handing him over to you. You know what to do, right?”

Kevin had already guessed why Laurinda wanted to see him, so he just nodded, his smile as warm as ever. “Thank you,” he said quietly.

Laurinda shook her head. “No need to thank me. Honestly, I wasn’t planning to let him go, but I know he’s more useful to you than he is to me. So, I’ll let you handle him.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t let you down. This time, I’m going to become the head of the family. I’ll take back everything that’s supposed to be mine.”

For a second, something sharp flashed in Kevin’s calm eyes. He’d swallowed his pride and waited for this chance, and he wasn’t about to let it slip through his fingers.

“Let me introduce you to a friend,” Laurinda said, gesturing for Egan to come closer. “His group is new here in Mistfall Atoll. Once you’re in charge of the Riley family, I hope you can look out for them.”

Laurinda brought Egan over and introduced him to Kevin. Now that they had this connection, things would be so much smoother for Egan’s group in Mistfall Atoll.

The Riley family controlled most of the ports in Mistfall Atoll. With Kevin’s help, getting in and out would finally be simple, and they wouldn’t have to worry about their shipments getting snatched anymore.

“Of course, I’ve got you covered. Any friend of yours is a friend of mine,” Kevin said, reaching out his hand.

Egan stepped forward and shook it. They both introduced themselves, and as Kevin listened to Egan, he quickly realized Egan was the one involved in the recent drama around Mistfall Atoll. He gladly accepted Egan as a friend, and it almost felt like they should have met years ago.

They chatted for a bit, but soon Kevin brought the conversation back to his plans. He hoped Laurinda would help him directly, but she shook her head.

“I can’t be part of your plans. I’m heading back home soon. But you should get in touch with Maddox. He’s ready to help you with anything you need. I already talked to him about it.”
