He quickly explained, \u201cOnce our game goes live, money will start rolling in. The company will finally be steady. It\u2019ll all work out!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ayla didn\u2019t argue. \u201cAlright.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They talked for a while. Kaleb was already getting annoyed. When they came back, Emmett was grinning like crazy, and Kaleb shot him a killer look.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb questioned Emmett, \u201cWhat did my sister tell you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe said I\u2019m basically her brother because I\u2019m nice and always flattering. How could I not be happy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb had no words for that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then the three of them headed to a restaurant.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t happen often. Ayla hadn\u2019t sat down to eat with Kaleb in ages.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb\u2019s face stayed cold, like some cool villain.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Staring at him too long ruined the vibe, so Ayla focused on Emmett instead.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Soon, the atmosphere around their table got heavier.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was a weekend night and crazy packed, so they couldn\u2019t get a private room. They sat out in the main area. Zane was eating with his group and caught sight of Kaleb\u2019s icy expression.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Zane had already asked around. For the whole week, Kaleb and Emmett never showed up to see any other tech pros. It was obvious they were either broke or didn\u2019t know anyone else who could help. With that leftover group of sloppy developers in their company, there was zero chance the issue would get fixed soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Their progress would hit a wall sooner or later.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just thinking about that put Zane in a great mood. He swaggered over.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb shot him a cold stare, but Zane just grinned. \u201cIf you sell that lame game now, you can still get some money for it. If you wait too long, it\u2019ll be worth nothing. But relax, Mr. Keaton. Whenever you\u2019re ready to dump it, I\u2019ll buy it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb was already annoyed. Zane\u2019s showing up made him want to explode.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>9:39 Thu, Jan 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 128 Our Biggest Investor\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ayla cut in sharply. \u201cNo clowns needed here. Get lost.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Zane\u2019s grin stopped mid-air. He didn\u2019t think she\u2019d snap like that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Talk back? She wouldn\u2019t care.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>98\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+35 Free Coins\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Touch her? That would be stupid. Kaleb was right next to her. Zane wouldn\u2019t even brush her hair before Kaleb punched him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His face twisted through a bunch of looks. Then he laughed at Kaleb, \u201cSome tough guy you are. Letting your sister protect you, huh? No wonder you\u2019re failing. I\u2019ll be around when your business crashes.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He waved to his friends and walked somewhere else..\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ayla noticed Kaleb looked dark. She said calmly, \u201cHe\u2019ll be the one choking on his words later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb knew Ayla would make Zane pay someday, and he was looking forward to it. \u201cBesides wasting money, what does his trash company even have?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Emmett joked, \u201cSounds like you\u2019re jealous. Regretting saying no to Mr. Lawson?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb was ready to snap back, but Ayla suddenly said, \u201cI\u2019ll give you 300 million. Why are you worried?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb had been in a pretty good mood this week. The database problem was solved. Then, they had a meeting with a top VC today.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even though Max showed up, Ayla rejecting him right away kept Kaleb chill.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Zane talked trash, but he looked like a clown doing it. Kaleb wasn\u2019t truly mad.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Plus, Ayla told him she wouldn\u2019t let Max laugh at him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb didn\u2019t show it, but he liked hearing that. He always reacted better to kindness than pressure. If she treated him nicely, he\u2019d return the favor.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Emmett\u2014the guy without a big sister-kept interrupting before Kaleb could say anything back to Ayla.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So when Ayla said that about the money, Kaleb figured she was just comforting him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He was her only brother, after all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She wasn\u2019t spoiling Emmett for sure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>P\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>9:39 Thu, Jan 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 128 Our Biggest Investor\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb kept eating and enjoying the moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>98\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+35 Free Coins\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Emmett stared, shocked at how calm Kaleb was. He could lie and claim his cousin could invest 100 million, but another 300 million? Then Kaleb would definitely want to meet that cousin, and the lie would fall apart. It was hard to keep that secret.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So he had to finally tell the truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Emmett thought Kaleb would freak out, but he didn\u2019t.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Their company had been short on funds forever. Suddenly having 300 million should\u2019ve made him jump up or something.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Emmett couldn\u2019t figure Kaleb out at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But deep down, he was impressed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He knew he wasn\u2019t that chill.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He sighed. \u201cKaleb, aren\u2019t you gonna toast Ayla?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s driving. Why would I drink with her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ayla already poured herself a drink. \u201cI\u2019ll call a driver.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb found her being serious about it kind of funny. \u201cAll you did was clap back at Zane for a few lines, and that deserves a toast? Seriously? If you didn\u2019t say anything, I would\u2019ve roasted him harder. I might\u2019ve even thrown a punch.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ayla and Emmett both looked confused.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Emmett tapped Kaleb\u2019s cheek. \u201cWhat does this have to do with Zane? Ayla just became our biggest investor. Even if you won\u2019t say thanks, you should at least drink with her. Ever heard of being polite?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kaleb let the tap slide and didn\u2019t react, staying cold like always.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>3\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>9:39 Thu, Jan 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Editorial Board Our editorial team works behind the scenes to refine each chapter, maintain consistency, and deliver the best reading experience.<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unwritten Feelings Drift by Austen 128 Chapter 128 Our Biggest Investor\u00a0 :\u00a0 Chapter 128 Our Biggest Investor\u00a0 (9\u00a0 +35 Free [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24563","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-retired-from-your-heart-novel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24563","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24563"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24563\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24563"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24563"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24563"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
