Seeing Hayden remain silent, Romina added, “I knew her mother, we were on good terms. Because of that, I’ve been looking after the child, so in a way, I’m helping Mr. Bowman take care of her…”
Hayden nodded thoughtfully: “So that’s how it is.”
“Yes.”
Romina nodded gently, noticing the man beside her seemed to be looking at her, but with Jericho sitting across, she didn’t dare turn to meet his gaze.
Jericho, across from them, looked extremely displeased.
The pressure around him kept dropping lower and lower.
“Since the misunderstanding has been cleared up, there’s no need to pursue it further. It’s just a child, no need to make a big deal out of it.”
As Hayden said this, he tilted his head slightly toward Jericho.
Everyone knew these words were meant for Jericho.
Jericho didn’t say anything more, but when he looked at Romina, his eyes were filled with intense resentment.
“It’s getting late. I really do have an important meeting tonight, so I’ll be leaving now.”
Joaquin quickly stood up from the sofa, his voice low and hoarse.
“You’re not staying for dinner? Since you’re already back.”

Hayden looked displeased, his gaze shifting over.
Romina also stood up: “I happen to have something to do tonight as well, so I won’t stay for dinner. Would it be possible to get a ride with Mr. Bowman?”
Joaquin glanced at Romina, the corners of his lips curving in a half- smile: “Of course.”
Jericho quickly stood up: “You should ride with me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he strode forward, grabbed Romina’s arm, and walked briskly toward the door.
When they reached the door, Romina immediately shook off Jericho’s hand. “I’m not going the same way as you…”
Jericho’s brows furrowed: “You’re not going the same way as Joaquin either! Why do you want to ride with him?”
Just as Romina was about to respond, a deep voice interrupted her: “I’m going to the company, it’s on the way for her.”
…………
Hearing the voice, Joaquin turned around and caught sight of the man standing behind him, his expression suddenly darkening.
“I can take a detour to drop her off, there’s no need for you to trouble yourself.”
Before Romina could respond, Jericho grabbed her wrist again and pulled her toward the car.
This scene made the man behind them furrow his brows sharply.
“Jericho, is this how the Bowman family taught you to treat women?”
The man’s voice, tinged with displeasure, came from behind.
