Hugo Long quickly said, "Sis, aren't you being too much? It's like we are targeting CEO Collins."
"What do you mean targeting?" Violet Long looked at Dylan Collins, "I just want to tell you, this is how our family is. All the talk about manners and proper conduct, that's for outsiders. When it comes to our own people, we have always been protective."
"..."
It was, indeed, the truth, but it sounded quite absurd to the listener.
Dylan Collins was naturally aware of this. He didn't say much, just nodded and said, "I understand of course. Even if CEO Long is targeting me, he has his reasons. After all, I took Hallie home without the consent of the Long Family. It's only right that their expectations of me are higher."
Watching Dylan Collins leave, Hugo Long remarked, "The man is the heir to the Collins family after all; we should give him some face."
