The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 324

Regardless, her relationship with the Devereaux family was clearly far beyond what Leonard imagined.

She hadn't intended to reveal this connection, but Leonard was pushing her too far. There was no need to spare these people's pride anymore.

"Nora?"

"What a pleasant surprise. Did you run into some trouble?"

Mr. Devereaux answered almost immediately.

Hearing his familiar, almost doting tone, Leonard and the others stood frozen in shock.

Mia nearly screamed out loud.

How was this possible?

It was one thing for Nora to have a good relationship with Nolan—after all, they had survived a life-or-death situation together.

But why would the head of the family be so kind to her?

"Shut up!"

Leonard quickly yanked Mia back.

That was Mr. Devereaux on the line! If she blurted out something stupid, his entire plan would go up in smoke!

He stared at Nora in sheer terror, his eyes swimming with conflicting emotions.

A tidal wave of regret washed over him.

If he had known she had such a solid connection with Mr. Devereaux, he wouldn't have set her up with Aaron! He would have arranged a marriage for her directly!

Realizing his colossal blunder too late, Leonard was consumed by frustration.

But he didn't even have time to dwell on it.

Because Nora had just dropped a bomb.

"Mr. Devereaux, can the partnership between your group and the Hayes Group be terminated?"

Leonard's heart nearly leaped out of his throat.
