Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 301

“Explain,” Hayden said passively.

He neither showed interest nor disinterest. Hayden’s face was as cold and as unreadable as ever. I wondered if Ethan could read Hayden and what he was thinking because I clearly couldn’t. Regardless, I was slightly surprised that Hayden was willing to listen.

“It’s simple. I want Torex and Silva to work together just like what Jack wanted,” Ethan said casually.

Hayden’s expression was unreadable. If Ethan thought that the mention of Jack’s name would have an impact on Hayden, his guess seemed to be quite off the mark. On the contrary, Hayden didn’t seem impressed at Ethan’s reference of Jack’s name.

“Jack is dead. He’s been dead for a long time now. Unlike you, I don’t care much about the will of a dead man,” Hayden replied.

His response was cold, and I felt a slight tightness in my chest at how heartless he seemed. After all, he was speaking about my late father just now. I glanced over at Hayden and the look on his face told me that he meant every word that he had just said.

“Is that so? Is that also the reason why you abandoned your life as a doctor and came back to the family business?” Ethan asked.

That’s right. My father wanted Hayden to become a doctor…

“My will is my own. What about you? Shouldn’t you start to think by yourself and for yourself already?” Hayden challenged.

“Don’t our past make us who we are today?” Ethan asked in wonder.

“That depends on you. Frankly, I don’t care what you think about Jack and what he wanted. I sit here as the representative of Torex, I won’t agree to anything that won’t benefit the group despite my own personal beliefs,” Hayden stated flatly.

“Is that how it works? You are not Hayden…” Ethan said with a slight nod of his head.

“Correct, right now I am Hayden Torex…” Hayden replied with a clear stress on his last name.

“What about her? Will marrying her benefit the Torex too?” Ethan asked as his eyes shifted to land squarely on me.

I flinched slightly at his words as my mind feared Hayden’s response.

“As long as the heir has my blood, it doesn’t matter who brings it into the world. It can be her or anyone else. It doesn’t have to be her,” Hayden replied matter-of-factly.
