Bruce had only rushed over when he got Farris' call.

"Grandpa, please eat something," Bruce urged, holding a spoonful of soup near Farris' mouth.

Farris motioned for him to stop. "Just leave it there for now." He had no appetite after everything that had happened at home.

He had never been happy about Bruce choosing Leah from the start. He thought he had made his feelings clear to Bruce, yet things had still turned out this way.

After staying quiet since his hospitalization, Farris finally spoke up. "What are you planning to do next?" Bruce hesitated, thinking for a moment before responding calmly, "I'll handle the rumors and reassure the shareholders.

If his personal problems began to affect the company, the shareholders would jump at the chance to stir up trouble." Farris chuckled bitterly. "And how exactly do you intend to do that? Even if you manage to stop the rumors online, how can you stop people from talking? Rumors spread fast, like wildfire. Can you silence the gossip everywhere?" Bruce could tell that Farris was unhappy with his plan.

"No way!" Tracy suddenly stormed into the room. "Leah hasWe can't Andromacher can has.

Farris shot Tracy a cold look, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. "Then tellthis. Since Andromach and Leah Andromache becclose, has she ever taken Leah to any public events? Has she ever openly introduced her? Is there any real proof of their relationship?"

Tracy was at a loss for words. There had been strange rumors that Andromache accepted Leah as her goddaughter. People were shocked when Leah suddenly becso close to someone with such a high profile. But there was no clear evidence of their connection. To this day, Andromache had never publicly acknowledged their relationship, nor had she attended any events involving the Burgess family. It appeared that the Burgess family was trying to get in her good graces.
