Danny nodded solemnly. “Tin listening”
Anthony lowered his voice. “My sister Milly has taken a liking to some parasite recently. She’s even announced she intends to pursue him. She’s too naive to see through people’s deceit, and I’m afraid she will be scammed, so I need to nip this in the bud; I have to find this kept man and put an end to their blossoming romance!”
Danny was momentarily speechless,
Despite his extensive experience as an assistant, he wasn’t sure how to respond to such a revelation.
Parasite? Kept man? Is he talking about Mr. Tatel
Clearing his throat, Danny asked cautiously, “Mr. Anthony, how can you be so certain this person is a kept man, a parasite?”
Anthony snorted sarcastically, “How can I not be sure? Since when does a girl chase after a guy? It’s always the
guy pursuing the girl! This man is plotting to lure… no, seduce my sister into chasing him because he’s too stingy to spend his own money! This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“My sister is so innocent; who knows how much he’s taken advantage of her already? He might be here in this hospital because she footed the bill. Isn’t that the definition of a kept man?”
As he spoke, his anger grew, his voice nearing a shout.
The mere thought of his beloved sister lowering herself for some jerk enraged him and kept him awake at night.
Listening to his outburst, Danny admired Anthony’s vivid imagination but worried he might be heading for a clash with George, “Ahem, Mr. Anthony, how do you plan to nip this in the bud and address this issue
at its core?”
Anthony fished out his checkbook from his pocket and swiftly wrote a check with casual confidence.
“Here, take this 750 thousand. Go in there, find the suspect, and shove this money in his face, then tell him. to disappear from my sister’s life! The further the better!”
Examining the check in his hand, Danny glanced at Anthony curiously and asked, “You’re simply entrusting me with this money? Aren’t you concerned I might approach the wrong person?”
Anthony waved off the concern. “You’ve risen high in the Tate Group, a cutthroat company, so you must be capable. If anyone can locate this guy, it’s you. If you can’t, then I seriously question George’s judgment in personnel.
“Even if you end up with the wrong person, it’s only 750 thousand. It’s not that big a deal. We’ll chalk it up to the Burnetts‘ good deed of the day, aiding someone in need.”
Anthony’s words, though arrogant, did not make Danny feel uncomfortable and even carried a certain
charm.
He seemed to be radiating the confidence typical of those raised in affluent families.

seemed perceptive about the situation….

Danny was certain Anthony had not identified George as the person he was looking for, but his intuition hinted that Anthony suspected Danny knew who the supposed ‘kept man‘ was. Otherwise, Anthony wouldn’t be so decisive…
Even if he himself didn’t realise he had said something that gave him away.
Keeping his composure, Danny asked again, “Mr. Anthony, aren’t you worried I might run away with the money?”
Anthony raised an eyebrow, studying Danny, “Mr. Jarvis, if 750 thousand is all it takes to tempt you, then I’d suggest you resign and join Burnett Group. From what I know, even Ivan’s bonus surpasses that
amount.”
Danny was left completely speechless.
He had to admit, inside and out, and from top to bottom, the Burnetts were undeniably formidable.
Danny presented the check to George with both hands, feeling the weight of his imposing presence almost overwhelm him.
He discreetly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and silently observed how it was no surprise that Jordan and George clashed and could not stand each other–their powerful auras refused to yield to each
other.
“Mr. Tate, this is the check from Mr. Anthony. I’ve already confirmed its validity with the bank,” Danny reported.
George studied the check in his hand. He scrutinised Anthony’s signature at the bottom before a soft chuckle escaped him.
From his understanding, Jordan, the eldest among the Burnetts‘ siblings, showered his younger sister with affectionate generosity and would spend money liberally. Conversely, his younger brothers were frugal and thrifty, not accustomed to lavish spending.
This contrast ensured that none of the Burnetts‘ younger generation grew up as pampered heirs. Instead, they each flourished in their chosen fields, unlike William, who had enjoyed a life of comfort
Just thinking about William gave him a headache.
“If this 750 thousand truly belongs to Anthony, it likely represents his entire savings. Since he entrusted it to us, it would be remiss of us not to accept it,” George remarked casually.
After hearing that, Danny understood that George had a strategy.
But Mr. Tate is probably right. This sum could very well constitute Anthony’s personal savings, and the fact that he is giving it all to a complete stranger is a testament to his concern for Ms. Milly.
“Deposit the 750 thousand. We’ll find a way to return it to Milly in due course. After all, it’s the Burnetts money, and it’s not ours to spend, George stated.
Taking the check, Danny nodded and replied, “Alright, Mr. Tate.”

George continued, “I recall Anthony recently ordered a limited edition Maserati from Tate Group’s luxury car dealership. Is that true?”
Danny paused briefly and thought it over. “Yes, I think that did happen.”
George suggested, “Inform the manager to give Anthony a 750 thousand dollar discount for some reason. Report the shortfall to headquarters; they’ll cover it.”
George disliked taking undue advantage of others, especially when the person in question was his prospective brother–in–law.
Danny, expecting this approach, remained composed. “Will do, Mr. Tate. But… when I see Mr. Anthony again later, how should I explain the check?”
I can’t just tell him that it was intended to be saved up for Ms. Milly..
George tapped his fingers lightly on the bed, his elegant fingers contrasting against the sky–blue bedspread.
“Tell him you gave the check to the kept man. The kept man was heartbroken and tearful, and he decided to leave Milly. But he insisted on saying goodbye to her first. George casually referred to himself as the kept man, as if it were perfectly natural.
