After Florence Morgan finished speaking, she waited there for her younger son's reaction.
She wanted to see how he would respond.
Ryan Sterling wasn't a fool; he understood immediately.
He paused for a moment, his voice rising. "Impossible! I don't believe it."
Those words finally put Florence Morgan at ease.
'It seems the "boyfriend" Evelyn Grant mentioned isn't my younger son.'
'While it wasn't good news that she had a boyfriend, at least it wasn't Ryan. It meant the brothers wouldn't be turning on each other just yet.'
'This would also buy me more time to get Evelyn Grant and Julian Sterling back together.'
"What's so hard to believe? Eve has never been one to lie! Ryan, you saw it for yourself. She's in a new relationship now, and she didn't choose you. That proves she has no interest in you, so you should just give up on the idea! With your prospects, what kind of woman couldn't you have?"
What she said was undoubtedly true.
