My Bossy CEO Husband
Chapter 774

With a lingering gaze, Barlow took in the figure before him.

“Kennedi, it’s been a while.

”

Kennedi Reed stood there, shrouded in a black dress.

A singular white petal-shaped trinket graced her hair; a stark contrast against her dark attire.

Her choice of clothes painted a melancholic picture, as if she was paying respects at a funeral.

If Rosalynn were present, she would recognize Kennedi as the same woman she had an encounter with by the bathroom door.

Kennedi bore into Barlow with her eyes; a tumultuous ocean of emotions lay within them.

“Barlow, you’ve been quite heartless,” she accused, the sorrow in her voice carrying an undertone of resentment.

On hearing her words, Barlow paused midway through buttoning his shirt.

He cast a sidelong glance at her and heaved a sigh.

“I’m sorry,” he said, his voice quiet.

Kennedi closed the gap between them.

Her chest rose and fell rhythmically with heavy breaths.

“Was your entire motive to destroy my father’s company?”

Guilt weighed heavy on Barlow’s heart.

Memories from the past flooded his mind.

Their first encounter was in a crowded bar, where a drunken brute wouldn’t let go of her.

He stepped in, only to realize she was the out-of-wedlock child of Sun Group’s head honcho.

To fulfill his own mission, he got close to her.

He maintained a cordial relationship with her, not out of affection but because it served his purpose.

And while he remained indifferent, she developed feelings for him.

However, he didn’t manipulate her to bring down her father’s empire.

Her father’s own malpractices had been his undoing, leading to his imprisonment.

“Can’t you speak up?” Kennedi was wielding a dagger now, her gaze unwaveringly fixed on Barlow.

Despite the blade in her hand, Barlow’s expression didn’t change.
