Chapter 89
The person in the lead was none other than the guy Renee had been waiting for all night Jerome South.
“Miss Everheart, my naughty daughter has gone way over the line this time. I’ve already punished her by grounding her for a
month. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive her,” d
Jerome sincerely apologized, his face filled with guilt,
“I was lucky enough to escape unscathed, but my husband, who tried to save me...’
Renee looked towards the ward where Stefan was, her fingers clenching slightly.
Although his life was no longer in danger, the toxin had accumulated in his body, so no one knew if it would have any lasting
effect. She was somewhat worried and also felt a bit guilty.
If she had not tried to put on the act to acquire South Group’s cooperation, Stefan would not have been in danger.
She could now take the opportunity to make the request from Jerome South, but... she could not
do it.
Liam, however, did not have that kind of reservation. He cut straight to the point. “If apologies can solve everything, why do we
still need the police? You’re a smart man, Mr. South. Do you really think a few words is enough to compensate for all the troubles
your precious daughter
caused?”
Jerome South nodded and said, “I’ve thought long and hard about it. As long as you agree not to pursue this matter anymore,
Miss Everheart, it’ll be your decision whether South Group cooperates with Azure Group or with H Group in the future!”
“That’s more like it! You’re a smart man indeed, Mr. South!”
Liam did not expect everything to go so smoothly.
As expected of his boss. It took her only one day to deal with a sly old fox like Jerome South. He
admired her so much!
“Time is of the essence. If it’s convenient for you, Mr. South, how about signing the contract.
now?”
Liam was afraid that changes might happen if they waited too long, so he already had the contract prepared.
However, Renee said, “There’s no rush. We’ll discuss this when my husband wakes up.”
“What?”
Liam turned his back on Jerome South and faced Renee, silently mouthing the question.
They had prepared so much for this very moment. Now that they had completed 99.9% of the process and were at the last 0.1%,
she’s choosing to give up?
Did she have any idea what she was doing?!
Renee paid Liam no heed.
She certainly knew what she was doing.
Giving up the chance to cooperate with South Group was tantamount to giving up the opportunity to help Azure Group
immediately take flight.
But, right now... she simply could not take advantage of the situation. At least, until Stefan woke she could not do it!
up,
Jerome South’s eyes went back and forth between Renee and Liam, wondering what their relationship was.
They did not look like lovers.
But they seemed to be more than friends.
He then looked at Stefan, who was currently lying unconscious in the ward...
Tsk, these three people have such a complicated relationship!
“Okay, then let’s wait until Stefan wakes up. Anyway, like I said, you will be the one to decide who South Group will cooperate
with, Miss Everheart.”
Jerome South then left.
Liam could not find it in himself to blame Renee. He believed that Renee must have her own
reasons for doing so.
Azure Group belonged to Renee anyway. He was just an employee. He would do as the boss said.
Liam had to leave because he had some business to take care of.
Therefore, Renee was the only one left at the ward.
The doctor soon brought the examination report to Renee for a detailed discussion.
“Mrs. Hunt, Mr. Hunt’s life is no longer in danger, but the black silver-ring snake has a unique venom that will take several days to
completely cleanse away.”
The doctor pushed his glasses and said mysteriously, “In the meantime, Mr. Hunt will be in an
unusual condition. I just want to tell you about it now so that you won’t be too worried...
