Wyatt gasped sharply, nearly flipping out in rage.

Yasmin was not easily humored, but the argument between the father and son tickled her pink, and she had to stop herself from laughing.

They were such a loving pair of father and son.

A flurry of footsteps followed.

Carrie carried a tray of beverage and approached Wyatt before putting a drink on the table.

"This is for you, M-Mr. Thompson."

Carrie's sweet voice and young face rubbed off on Wyatt, and he said with a smile, "Oh, Carrie. I didn't expect to see you here! Are you here to keep Bella company?"

"I-I... Yeah." Carrie blushed embarrassedly. She was not so foolish as to admit that she was living with Ryan, so she skimped past the question.

"That's not important."

Wyatt pulled Carrie to his side gleefully and checked her out. "I don't think you have a boyfriend yet. What do you think about Ralph? You seem perfect for each other, and you're around the same age. I think you will get along just fine."

"Huh?" Dumbstruck, Ralph nearly spat out his drink.

"I... I..." Carrie took a step back in fright, her fingers twiddling uneasily to the point they were sore.

Ralph might be a crude man, but as a detective, he had keen observations. He picked up on Carrie's behavior.

She was rather introverted with high social anxiety.

He started to feel bad as Carrie bit her lips and teared up.

Furrowing his brows, Ralph said solemnly, "Dad, did you come all the way to Savrow to force good women into marriage? I told you a million times that I wanted to focus on my career. Marriage isn't on the cards for me."

Wyatt narrowed his eyes. "You don't get a say in that. If you did, you wouldn't have come out of your mother's womb."

"What the f-" Ralph nearly cussed. He swallowed his words until his face went red.

He could not wrap his head around one thing.

Although Hugh had passed away, Ralph had four other brothers. Yet Wyatt was fixated on getting him hitched.

His intention to marry aside, Ralph's job would take him away on dangerous missions without any breaks. No decent woman could stand a workaholic like him. If he were to marry, he wanted to shower his future wife with love and happiness. However, it was not something he could offer at the moment. Ralph could not possibly put any woman through that.

Since Wyatt was intent on setting Ralph up with Carrie, Yasmin drew close to Carrie and held her trembling shoulders. Yasmin looked Wyatt in the eye and uttered, "We appreciate the gesture, Chairman Thompson, but Ms. Salvador is taken."

"Oh? By who? Who is better than my son?" Wyatt expressed contempt.

"It's Mr. Hoffman."

Yasmin's blank expression sparkled with a faint smile. "Ms. Salvador's grandfather and father know that she is dating Mr. Hoffman. They have never interfered in their relationship. Besides, Mr. Hoffman is abou to become the CEO of the Hoffman Group. When that happens, he will formally ask for Ms. Salvador's hand in marriage."

Even though Ryan expressed his wish to marry Carrie time and time again, Carrie still got butterflies when hearing about it. A rosy tint painted her cheeks.
