Chapter 201 Reluctant Approval

Finished

Draven had only one purpose in persuading Kaleb–he wanted him to be an ally, not an obstacle.

He wanted to avoid future encounters where Kaleb would treat him like a threat, and prevent Kaleb from badmouthing him to Ayla.

Truthfully, Draven didn’t care that much about what Kaleb thought.

From beginning to end, everything was for Ayla.

With this in mind, Draven’s gaze grew heavier, his eyes cold and detached. He d those who mattered to him. Beyond that, he wouldn’t spare any extra kindness for oners.

Kaleb stared at Draven, then clenched his fists.

served his care for

Draven had been very blunt about his intention–he was set on pursuing Ayla, so he needed to build a good relationship with her future brother–in–law.

Max had wanted to invest in him for the same reason. Kaleb had rejected him without mercy, but Draven’s words hit home.

Three years ago, Ayla had suddenly married Troy. Kaleb was traumatized by it. He worried Ayla would pull another “surprise” like that. If it led to a happy marriage, that would be fine. But he was afraid Ayla would get hurt again. For these two reasons, Kaleb would have a knee–jerk reaction whenever he saw a man getting close to her.

Draven had seen through why he was so resistant.

Sincerity was the ultimate weapon.

Kaleb was somewhat convinced.

But with his temperament, he’d never admit it. “We’ll see. My sister really doesn’t like your type.”

Draven said calmly, “Whether she likes me or not is another matter. As long as you care about Ayla and worry she’ll get hurt in a relationship, then I need to put your mind at ease.”

Kaleb was the type who wouldn’t respond to either the carrot or the stick unless he personally approved of someone. Anyway, at first he’d found Draven very annoying because his type was too similar to Troy’s. All jerks were this type.

But this conversation had somewhat changed Kaleb’s mind. Because while Draven seemed to promises to him as a brother, the starting point was actually still Ayla. He’d seriously considered. previous marriage, which was why he knew what Kaleb cared about and why he’d come to make these promises.

Draven cared about Ayla, so by extension, he also considered her brother.

Of course, Kaleb still couldn’t accept Draven, but this guy was slightly more reliable than Max. Whether someone was serious or not, their attitude said it all. Draven’s attitude was decent. Max was just flippant.

Kaleb said, “Don’t tell my sister about our conversation.”

What if Ayla found out Draven was this considerate? She only saw him as her boss now, but what if she developed feelings for him? That wouldn’t be good.

“However my sister chooses in the future is her own business. No one can sway her thinking, and coercion or manipulation definitely won’t work.”

Draven’s willingness to talk this much proved he definitely wouldn’t back off just because of one or two warnings from Kaleb. So Kaleb could only say, “If you want to pur her, you1

Kaleb said mockingly, “You keep talking about whether we’re on bad terms of have your sights set on my sister, there’s no way we can have a good relationship.”

raven, as long as you

Draven hadn’t expected Kaleb to say this. Although Kaleb wore his emotions on his sleeve, he was rough around the edges but sharp. His mind had been working the whole time. He hadn’t just blindly let Draven lead him by the nose. Besides, at their first meeting, he hadn’t been intimidated by Draven’s presence. Instead, he’d held his own, just like Ayla.

Kaleb was much more mature than he’d imagined.

Draven nodded solemnly. “Rest assured. I consider it not just your requirement, but my personal principle as well.”

Kaleb glared at him a few more times. Draven’s attitude was beyond reproach. There was nothing more to

say.

He turned and left. But just as he stepped out of the study room, Kaleb suddenly felt a bit weak. His legs felt weak, and without realizing it, his back was drenched in sweat.

Kaleb frowned. Who the hell was this Draven anyway?

During their conversation, it hadn’t seemed like much, but now he realized his entire body had been tense the whole time. Kaleb had met other impressive CEOs before, but none had given him this uncomfortable

pressure.

Good thing he’d held his ground just now, or he would have embarrassed Ayla.

Kaleb had already collected himself by the time he reached the living room.

Ayla immediately stood up from the couch and walked over, looking him up and down. “H

Kaleb replied, “I already told you I went to apologize. We weren’t going to throw down. What worry about?”

Ayla snapped, “Can you just talk normally for once!”

You stood up for me and chewed out Zane today, so I won’t hold it against you. Kaleb thought to himself.

He just let out a cold snort and obediently shut his mouth.

But thinking about how Draven had his sights set on Ayla made him unhappy. Because in his eyes, Ayla was the best. Only the most outstanding man could be worthy of her. Draven had just barely cleared the threshold.

As Kaleb silently criticized him, his eyes wandered around. He was just waiting for Ayla to give the order to go home when he accidentally spotted Draven’s display cabinet.

Four beautiful crystal tumblers sat on it. Ayla had one at too, shaped like a tree. They must be from the same brand.
