“Indeed,” Sumner replied evenly.
“Are you aware of the Walsh Group’s uing celebration?”
“I am.
What’s the issue?” Brady’s brow furrowed.
Why was Sumner mentioning the Walsh Group now? It could spell trouble if they found out Sumner was his son.
“A close friend of mine is keen to attend butcks an invitation.
Could you assist?” Sumner asked straightforwardly.
“How many invitations do you need?” Brady inquired.
Sumner cast a nce at Lindsey before answering, “Just one.

Just as he was about to end the call, Brady interjected, “Wait.
”
Sumner paused.
“What is it?”
“I need to remind you, or perhaps more precisely, your friend.
”
Brady’s voice was icy.
“The celebration is the most critical event in Walsh Group’s history.
Avoid any disturbances, or no one will be able to protect your friend.
”
Sumner fell silent for a moment, then turned to Lindsey with a soft voice.
“I understand.
”
He hung up shortly after.
“Well, did he agree to help?” Lindsey asked, her voice tinged with anticipation as Sumner set the phone aside.
He nodded.
“Yes, he’s on board.
”
“Wow! That’s wonderful! I wasn’t sure he’d be so easy-going.
”
Lindsey’s excitement was palpable.
However, Sumner’s expression darkened slightly, which didn’t go unnoticed.
“Sumner, what’s troubling you?” she inquired, feeling a shift in his mood.
He shook his head dismissively.
“It’s nothing major, just dwelling on his final words.
”
“And what were those?” Lindsey pressed, looking intently at him.
“He warned us not to stir any trouble there, or we might face serious repercussions,” Sumner ryed with a serious tone.
Lindsey looked serious.
She intended to talk to the CEO at the event, not to cause a scene.
