Chapter 1406: Chapter 1406: I Will Not Marry Her
Clayton Howard raised his eyebrows, "Wasn’t it because Grandpa concealed my true identity that I agreed to his proposal at that time?"
If he had not lost his memory five years ago, he would not have agreed to this.
The Housekeeper Harrison was taken aback, and suddenly found himself at a loss for words.
Initially, Master had indeed concealed Young Master Leon’s true identity, but at that time, there was no other choice.
"Young Master Leon, aren’t you willing to marry Lady Nina even if the full KM Corporation is at stake?" Housekeeper Harrison felt a pang of sorrow.
Before Master passed away, he was always worried about Lady Nina.
Nowadays, even Young Master Leon wants to abandon her; if Master knew about this from his resting place, how heartbroken he would be!
Such an offer, where anyone could have both a trillion-dollar fortune and a beautiful wife, why wouldn’t they be tempted?
Even though doing so might hurt Lady Walker, as the housekeeper of the Harrison family, he naturally couldn’t worry too much about that.
"Housekeeper Harrison, I believe you understand my intentions very clearly. I already have a wife and child; it’s impossible for me to marry Nina," Clayton Howard insisted. In this world, nothing could compare to his wife and child, much less replace them.
Hearing this, Housekeeper Harrison was helpless, "Then, what do you plan to do? Before Master passed away, he entrusted you to protect the KM Corporation, as a repayment to him. If you leave, what will happen to the Corporation? Young Master Leon, remembering that Master saved you at all costs in the past, please agree to his last request!"
"Regarding the Corporation, if possible, I hope it can be handed over to Nina." This was what he believed to be the most suitable course of action.
However, doing so would mean that he would have to publicly declare Old Sir Harrison’s secret that Nina Adams is his illegitimate daughter.
Sure enough, after hearing his suggestion, Housekeeper Harrison quickly protested, "No, no, no, that absolutely cannot be done! Lady Nina’s origins cannot be disclosed! If it could be, Master would have made it public long ago, why would he leave this world with regrets?"
Clayton Howard lifted his eyelid; although he knew Nina Adams’s identity couldn’t be disclosed at will, this was the best way to return KM to its rightful owner.
"What would you have me do then?" Clayton Howard asked, looking at Housekeeper Harrison.
Housekeeper Harrison’s gaze was one of sorrow, "Young Master Leon, you should—"
"Impossible, I will not marry her, and after these matters are settled, I will return to England."
"Young Master Leon!"
"No need to say more."
Housekeeper Harrison wanted to persuade him further, but was quickly interrupted.
Housekeeper Harrison knew very well that decisions made by him were difficult to change.
What should be done about Lady Nina?
"Young Master Leon, didn’t you promise Master that you would take good care of Lady Nina?"
"I am grateful for Grandpa’s life-saving grace. If I were not Clayton Howard but Lewis Harrison, I, too, would marry Nina, letting her enter the Harrison Family legitimately, and her identity as Grandpa’s illegitimate daughter could remain a secret. But I am not Lewis Harrison, I have a wife and child. Housekeeper, are you asking me to abandon my family?"
Clayton Howard lifted his line of sight, his face slightly stern as he looked at Housekeeper Harrison.
"This..." Faced with his response, Housekeeper Harrison was in a difficult position.
Indeed, the sin of abandoning one’s wife is too great, and it’s truly pitiable for Lady Walker.
But what about Lady Nina?
For a moment, Housekeeper Harrison found himself caught in a dilemma.
Unable to bear parting with Camila Walker and her daughter, yet agonized over Nina Adams.
