Reckless Marriage Unyielding Love novel Chapter 145

Mikayla watched everything with cold eyes. Huxley's head bandages hadn't even been removed before Logan's family couldn't wait to deal with Huxley's situation.

Winona said gently, her pregnant belly already showing. "Uncle Jorge, Huxley's injuries are almost healed! We thought it would be good for Huxley to start working at the company soon."

The Lindstrom family was pressuring her, and she wanted to hold her head high within the Lindstrom family. She needed to expedite her plans. Mikayla's previous threats had delayed her. Huxley had to get into the company and perform well.

Today, she chose to come because Mikayla's husband was also present. She hoped his presence would make Mikayla more agreeable and give her a chance to get close to him.

Three days ago, Mikayla's wedding had nearly driven her insane with jealousy. It was so extravagant... Her wedding with Jaxon in Xosa was nothing compared to Mikayla's grand affair. Their wedding had barely made a splash because of Mikayla's high-profile proposal. Now, Mikayla's wedding was world-class.

Her past wedding now seemed utterly insignificant.

Everywhere she went, people gushed about Mikayla's wedding. Those who knew looked at her with scorn. As a daughter of the Salvatore Group, she had never endured such contempt. She used to enter stores and be treated like royalty, but now she had to listen to snide remarks from staff.

On the day of the wedding, she didn't get a good look at the man. Now, seeing him, she had to admit he was quite something.

Compared to Jaxon's gentle and courteous demeanor, this man was both noble and elegant. However, his eyes were filled with unwavering affection as he looked at Mikayla from beginning to end. How did Mikayla get so lucky?

Mikayla curved her lips into a smile. "If Huxley is ready to work, he can return to the company. But he'll need a different department." She didn't want Huxley to cause issues at such a critical time.

"What do you mean, Mikayla?" Huxley yelled, ignoring Winona and Mildred's earlier warnings.

He was increasingly irritated by Mikayla. So what if she married a rich guy? He wasn't the top entrepreneur in Xosa! How dare she act so high and mighty and tell him to change departments!

Nodding at his father to stay calm, Mikayla continued, "Huxley, I'm your cousin. Show some respect! Any regular employee who took unsanctioned leave for as long as you did would have been fired by now. I'm merely suggesting a department transfer."

"What makes you think you run the company?" Logan boomed, clearly furious.

Mikayla replied smoothly, "I don't run the company. But Huxley was in my department. He left without a word, causing us a ton of extra work. We've since adjusted. He can't just waltz back in. A transfer is necessary." Mixing truth with falsehood, Mikayla knew they wouldn't catch on and resolved never to let Huxley near her team again.

At this moment, Mildred stepped in, smiling, "That's fine! Huxley has grown up. He's eager to contribute, even with his bandages still on."

Winona shot a sharp look at Huxley, signaling Huxley to hold his tongue.

Mikayla inwardly scoffed. Anyone could see if Huxley had truly matured.

Jorge said, "Okay, Logan and Mildred, rest assured. I will find a suitable position for Huxley in the company."
