"Please follow me. Mister Jenkins is waiting for you on the second floor," Hendrix said with a slight bow, gesturing to Serena to follow her before walking ahead and leading the way.Serena instinctively followed her.Soon, under Hendrix's guidance, they arrived at the lavishly decorated second floor of the Vientiane Bay sales office.Hendrix bowed to Serena again. "Mister Jenkins is inside. You can go in now."Serena nodded absently and thanked her. "Okay. Thank you for your trouble."Hendrix's face instantly showed a hint of nervousness, and she waved her hands repeatedly. "No trouble at all! It's my honor to serve you, Miss Lloyd!"Serena opened her mouth but did not know what to say for a moment.Whether it was the staff's reaction when she first entered the sales hall or Hendrix's attitude, it all made Serena feel a strong sense of illusion, as if she were the owner of Vientiane Bay Real Estate coming for an inspection.Soon, Serena regained her clarity.Regardless of wha
Yuri nodded, his smile becoming even more ingratiating. "Yes, I'm responsible for signing the agreement with you on behalf of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation."Serena sighed gently, hesitating for a moment before responding."Mister Jenkins, I must apologize before we proceed with signing the contract. According to the requirements of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, I needed to bring some materials related to the project when signing the agreement."However, the materials I had prepared were lost due to some unexpected events! I was afraid I wouldn't make it in time for the appointment, so I hurried here. Don't worry, Mister Jenkins, I will definitely make up for the missing materials!"Due to her nervousness, Serena spoke quickly.Despite her interactions with Yuri, she did not feel any reluctance from the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation to cooperate with them, as Ronald mentioned. However, when signing the contract, it was her fault for not bringing the require
What on earth was happening?If not for the Lloyd family's disheveled state when they returned home, Serena would have started doubting the truthfulness of what Ronald had told her about the situation.Looking at the scenario, the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation showed no signs of reluctance to cooperate. On the contrary, they seemed eager to sign the contract as soon as possible.Moreover, the attitude of everyone such as the security guards at the entrance, the staff of Vientiane Bay, and Yuri himself, was incredibly enthusiastic.Staring at the contract on the table, Serena's mind momentarily went blank, unsure how to react. She instinctively picked up the contract and started flipping through it.As she read through the contract, Serena suddenly realized that there were some changes compared to their initial discussions. However, all the changes were in her favor!Serena paused abruptly, raising her head to look at Yuri. "Mister Jenkins, why is the contract different?""T
Serena could still attribute some of the reasons to her previous efforts. Additionally, since she was the contact person for the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, it was after they met her that Yuri and his team had such a significant change.However, Yuri's words instantly reminded Serena of something.When Liam called her to explain, he said the same words, but she had not listened to him and had hung up the phone. At that moment, as she recalled this incident, Serena's body trembled violently in disbelief. Suddenly, a thought emerged in Serena's mind that she could not even believe herself! "Liam..."Could it be that Liam had not deceived her at all? Was he the one who facilitated the cooperation with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation?For a moment, Serena's mind became a chaotic mess. "Impossible. It's impossible..."However, the pain and confusion of being continuously deceived by Liam soon pulled Serena back from her daze. "This must be a coincidence," she mut
Yuri pondered for a while but could not remember at all. He had no idea who named the medication Bellflower!When Yuri learned about the mass production of the medication, its name had already been decided. However, based on his speculation, Yuri thought the name was likely connected to Liam.Without confirmation, Yuri did not dare to make any assumptions.Recalling how Liam mentioned Serena during that time, Yuri felt it was better to reveal as little as possible about the situation.Yuri shook his head and replied, "I don't know who named the medication.""Even you don't know, Mister Jenkins?" Serena asked softly.Yuri paused before he said, "Not really, but if you're curious about the name, you can wait a bit. After the medication is mass-produced, the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation will hold a launch event, and the one who named the medication, as well as some of our leaders from the foundation, will attend."Yuri smiled as he continued, "As our partner, Miss Lloyd, you
Serena froze when she stepped into her home.It looked exactly as it had when she left. The Lloyd family members had not gone to tend to their wounds. Instead, they sat in the center of the living room, chatting casually. From their expressions, it seemed they were waiting for something. When they heard the door open, their gazes shifted immediately. However, when they saw that Serena still looked radiant and beautiful without a hint of their own disheveled state, a flash of disappointment crossed their faces.Hailey frowned and asked coldly, "Aren't you supposed to be signing the contract with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation? Why are you back so soon?"Before Serena could reply, Etchen sneered, "No need to ask. She probably got halfway there, realized she was useless, and came slinking back, afraid of hitting a wall."Serena had signed the contract so smoothly and quickly, so the Lloyd family thought she had not even gone to sign it at all and had simply returned."I
"Impossible! How could she achieve what our whole family couldn't?" Etchen stormed over and furiously yelled, "Dad, let me see the contract! There must be something wrong with it! Who knows if Serena is trying to fool us with a fake document? Think about it, what does Serena have that we don't—"When Etchen flipped through the contract and saw the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's signature and seal on the last page, his voice abruptly stopped.Even more shocking, Etchen noticed that not only had Serena signed the contract, but some terms had been amended, all to their advantage.Given their last disastrous collaboration with the Irving family, Etchen had put in a lot of effort for the deal with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation.To say the least, he had meticulously studied the contract and its details, which were the source of Etchen's earlier confidence.However, holding the signed contract, he found it unbelievable."Serena, how on earth did you do this?" Sam asked,
Hailey looked at Serena and asked insincerely, "Of course, it's not that I really think that, but you don't seem thrilled about the successful signing."Serena sighed softly. "Mom, there are indeed some issues despite the smooth signing, but the situation might not be as Etchen described."Hailey frowned. "If it's not as Etchen said, then what could be the reason?"A conflicted expression flashed in Serena's eyes, and she spoke softly, "I'm not sure either, but during my conversation with Mister Jenkins, I received some information. Liam might have truly facilitated our cooperation with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation!"When those words left Serena's mouth, Hailey's eyebrows shot up."Who did you say?""Liam."Serena lowered her head. "Mister Jenkins told me some relevant details, and all the clues pointed to Liam—""Will you stop?!"Before Serena could finish, Hailey interrupted with a tirade. "Is this your excuse? Why are you still bringing up that useless person?"E
