Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate-Chapter 677: Why Is Your Mouth Open So Wide

"That’s not the case." Kai Bright objectively remarked, "Chairman Cole is fair in his dealings, but he’s inflexible and not smooth, a very upright person."

"How could such a person raise such a daughter?" Sophie Wilson wondered, "I heard Hayley Cole often hangs out at nightclubs and is quite domineering."

There’s certainly no issue with going to nightclubs, but being unreasonable is a problem.

"She’s not Chairman Cole’s biological daughter." Kai Bright sat up against the pillow and said, "Back then, due to some circumstances, Chairman Cole lived abroad for a while, fell in love with her mother, then went to a training camp, and they corresponded by letters."

"However, later Hayley Cole’s grandparents arranged for her mother to marry into a wealthy local family, thus severing their contact."

"It’s said that after marrying, Hayley Cole’s mother had a rough time, and her father had an accident and passed away."

"Later on, Hayley Cole’s mother found Chairman Cole, and Chairman Cole’s wife had also passed away, leaving two young children behind. Eventually, they ended up together."

"Apparently, Hayley Cole quite hates Chairman Cole, thinking that if it weren’t for him, her childhood wouldn’t have been so miserable. Oh, Hayley Cole’s biological father was a drunk and gambler who always beat her and her mother."

Upon hearing this, Sophie Wilson didn’t know what to say: "It was Hayley Cole’s grandparents who separated them initially, so what right does she have to blame Chairman Cole? Is she crazy?"

"Exactly, what else could explain why she’s helping James Reed?" Sophie huffed, then paused and frowned, saying, "Cousin, don’t you find Hayley Cole’s emotions very strange?"

"What do you mean?" Kai Bright asked curiously.

"You said Hayley Cole is a very domineering person. Someone like that wouldn’t care about others’ feelings, so why is she helping James Reed? Do you think she just happened to stir things up, or did she already know him?" Sophie Wilson asked, her eyes twinkling at Kai Bright.

Kai Bright blinked; his sister was so astute.

"Also, I found James Reed’s apology very odd back then. Now that I think about it... he kept mentioning he was a child from a blended family... Could this be implying something?" Sophie Wilson thought more and felt there might be something intriguing, "Do you think James Reed was deliberately picking a fight or intentionally saying this for Hayley Cole to hear?"

"It’s ridiculous. Once Ophelia Wilson was no longer useful, James Reed immediately found a new target. No wonder he played Ethan Seymour for a fool; his scheming is indeed deep."

"After learning about my Mr. Seymour’s status and realizing he couldn’t beat him in the business world, he took another route. It seems Ophelia and the Wilson Clan are already abandoned. Chairman Cole’s daughter is indeed a very good ally."

"With Hayley Cole’s status, many people around her must be eager to cozy up to her, but James Reed uses a strategy of feigned indifference, piquing Hayley Cole’s interest instead of seeking her favor."

"That’s how people are; they don’t like what’s handed to them on a platter but cherish what they have to pursue themselves."

Sophie Wilson nodded slightly, then looked up at the dumbfounded Kai Bright and asked puzzledly: "Cousin, why is your mouth open so wide?"
