Chapter 616

Author: Gu Lingfei
Duncan spoke up. “I know I made things hard for you in the company because I personally hired you, but you don’t have to worry about what others say. Just do your own thing.”

“Mr. Lewis, I want to resign.”

Duncan’s eyes deepened as he asked, “Why do you want to resign?”

Liberty was silent, then she raised her head to look at Duncan and said, “Back then, I was told that I came in through the back door, and I was secretly targeted by everyone. However, I put up with it in order to get a divorce and win custody of my son.

“It was because I needed a job to fight for Sonny’s custody.”

“So now that you’re divorced and you’ve won the custody of your son, you want to resign?” Duncan picked up from where she left off. “You haven’t even completed your probation period.”

He added, “You’re a capable person, and you’re good at your job. I believe that you know this too, but whatever they say about you, you don’t have to listen to them as long as you have a clear conscience.”

It is true, it takes so very long for one to get to read then it is one chapter. I paid for subscriptions and it take the money but never gave points but at the time of each start subscription . And they keep repeating subjects to stretch the book making it boring .

    “What do you think? Do you want to rent it? If you do, I’ll give you a discount since you’re Zachary’s sister-in-law. Your rent will be a little cheaper than others, but don’t tell anyone else. If they find out, they’ll come to me asking for a discount as well. That would be a huge loss.”Liberty was immensely touched. She had to cross that street every day to and from work, so she knew very well how much traffic that street held.Snack bars, restaurants, and even dessert stores over there had a remarkable business.She had been incredibly envious of those who could rent a shop lot and open a business on that street. Unexpectedly, those shopfronts belonged to Duncan.“How much is the monthly rent?”“All stores in downtown Wiltspoon are much more expensive than other places. Among the stores I have there, the smallest is about forty square feet, and the larger ones are more than a hundred square feet. What kind of eatery are you planning to open?”“A breakfast store.”“Then you d

    “Tell me, Hank. Did you offend all your clients? What did you do?”Hank managed to secure plenty of business and made a lot of money for the company. He entered Waltham Electronics as soon as he graduated and worked here for many years, so he was considered a tenured employee. The boss trusted and relied heavily on him.There were numerous managers in the company, but Hank was the youngest.He was promoted to the position of a manager because he brought great profits to the company. Although the management was jealous, they could not say anything about it.The boss attached great importance to Hank. If he was invited to a business reception but was unavailable to attend, he would ask Hank to go in his stead to see the world and attract more customers for the company.Hank did not let him down either. After attending the business reception, he indeed got to sign many more orders for the company.However, now, all the orders that Hank signed were either canceled or had their cooper

    Olivia was in deep remorse after she found out that Liberty had an aunt who married into a wealthy family.She should not have let her son divorce.If her son did not divorce, he could rely on nepotism to work in Stone Group, and his income would grow even higher.Maybe he could even earn tens of millions a year.She advised her son to pursue Liberty again and remarry Liberty but was sternly rejected. Jessica was downright displeased.Olivia stopped proposing the idea explicitly and thought of using her grandson instead.She thought of making her son pick up Sonny often, and then send Sonny back to Liberty. That way, Hank would be able to meet Liberty frequently. They had known each other for twelve years and had a son connecting them, so maybe they would be able to remarry after they calmed down.“Mom, tell Chelsea to drive you to Serenity’s store if you miss Sonny. There’s no need to pick Sonny up. You guys can’t coax him anyway. What if you scare him again?”Hank knew what h

    Serenity did not want her sister to worry.Liberty saw that Serenity looked normal, so she was relieved and said, “Zachary treats you very well. I think he won’t quarrel with you over something trivial. I’m relieved that you two didn’t get into a fight.”Serenity thought in her heart, ‘As it turned out, he actually did quarrel with me over something trivial.’He ignored her the whole day.She refused to take the initiative to be friendly with him again.She did not feel like she was at fault.The first time they fought, she did not have feelings for him. The second time, when he saw Shawn confess to her, she did not think it through and panicked, chasing him all the way to his office to offer him an explanation.Now, she felt incredibly upset.Maybe it was because she had grown some feelings for him.“Seren, I’ll take Sonny home. I’ve decided to open a store. I have to start planning.”“Okay, take Mrs. Lane with you so that Sonny doesn’t bother you.”Liberty accepted her sis

    “Don’t go out, Seren. I’ll deal with him,” Jasmine said before rushing to the entrance of the bookshop to stop Shawn. Grabbing him by the arm, Jasmine yanked him away. “Jas.” Forced to keep up with his cousin’s footsteps, Shawn tried to put a brake on the pulling, but Jasmine dragged him all the way to his car with all her might. “Unlock the car door!” Jasmine ordered with a stern face. Shawn gave her a rather disgruntled look.“Jas.” “I said, unlock the car door!” Jasmine sternly commanded. Although she was shorter than Shawn, she stood her ground against the man. Her chilly eyes were fixated on Shawn until the latter unlocked the door. Jasmine opened the door and stuffed him into the car. “Jas, I’m here for you, not Serenity.” Forced to take the passenger seat, Shawn watched as his cousin buckled him up. “Sit tight and don’t get out of the car!” Jasmine ordered and shut the car door before getting into the car from the other side. She moved quickly and decisi

    Jasmine had always had Shawn’s back through thick and thin. His cousin was in the position to give him the upper hand at getting the woman of his dreams. However, not only was Jasmine not supportive, but she was against it for the first time ever. She stopped him and even yelled at him. Shawn was in agony, unable to obtain the woman he loved. The fact that his closest cousin did not support him only added to the pain. “I’m all ears if you want to talk to me about your work. You can call me or go to my place. I’m not working tomorrow since it’s the weekend. What do you want to talk about? I can give you the whole day to pour out your feelings.“I mean, of course, things aren’t going well for you at work. Is your focus on your work? All you think about is pestering Serenity. I told you a million times. Serenity’s married and doesn’t have that kind of feelings for you. What’s the point of getting all over her face? “You’re only chipping away what’s left of your friendship with he

    Jasmine dashed all the way to Shawn’s family home. After pulling up, she sent a text message, asking Serenity to wait for her at the shop. She would be back in half an hour. [Sure.] Serenity replied with a meme. Mrs. Lowe was about to leave home for a social gathering. Her nights were either filled with game nights, social events, or accompanying her husband to business dinners. Seeing that her son’s ride was parked outside the house, Mrs. Lowe was taken aback by her niece getting out of the car. She smiled. “Jasmine, what brings you here with Shawn?” Mrs. Lowe then said to her son who had stepped out of the car. “Your dad said that you disappeared right after work. Shawn, your father’s busier than ever. You should be helping him.” Her husband mentioned that the companies under Lowe Enterprise that had partnerships with York Corporation previously were discontinued for some reason. York Corporation ended these partnerships on their accord. Out of the few projects under ta

    “Why isn’t my uncle back yet?” “He’s at a business dinner. He won’t be back until midnight.” Shawn’s younger sister was still in college. Now that it was winter break, she went traveling with her friends and would be back before the new year. There was no one else at the house. The aunt and niece took a seat on the sofa while Shawn sat beside the pair. He nervously stared at his mother. “What do you want to talk to me about, Jas?” “Aunt Rachel, I want to first put it out there that this is not Serenity’s fault. Please listen to what I have to say before getting mad. You can be mad at your son, but don’t take it out on Serenity.” Jasmine had to first give her aunt a fair warning and assure Serenity’s safety. “I won’t come over to your place if you take it out on Serenity, Aunt Rachel.” Mrs. Lowe replied with a smile, “What is it? You make it sound so somber. Why would I take it out on Serenity? Serenity has been friends with you for years. I watched her grow up. She’s

    “If you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, come to us. If we can help, we will. If we can’t, then there’s nothing we can do,” Adrian said.The Dott brothers pretended to decline the money, but after some back-and-forth, they eventually accepted, repeatedly expressing their gratitude.“I’ll call a car to take you back,” Adrian said, pulling out his phone to arrange transportation for them.Of course, they were not actually leaving Jensburg. They planned to start their operation tonight, aiming to deal with Caroline quickly to avoid any complications.“Thank you, Mr. Clark. You've already done so much for us,” the Dott brothers said, continuing to play their roles. They had come this far in their act and did not mind keeping up the charade a little longer.Soon, a black car really did arrive and stopped nearby. The driver stepped out and approached, respectfully greeting the three Clark brothers.“Take these two gentlemen home. They are Ms. Celine’s biological brothers,

    Justin returned to the dining room and packed up all the leftover dishes they had not finished, along with the opened but unfinished bottle of wine. He stuffed everything into several bags and carried them out. Handing the leftovers to Jacob, he said, “If we’re going to keep up appearances, we need to make it look like we’re really giving you our charity, so take these leftovers back with you. You can heat them up for dinner tonight, otherwise, just toss them in the trash after you leave, but don’t throw away the wine—only you two had it. We haven’t touched it.“This wine is really good stuff, too. Where you’re from, even if you had the money, you wouldn’t be able to buy such fine wine. And if you did find any, it’d probably be fake.”Jacob took the leftovers and the unfinished bottle of wine from Justin. The wine was indeed excellent. In fact, he would have asked for it himself even if Justin had not offered it. In all his life, he had never tasted such good wine.“Once you’re re

    Adrian beckoned Celine’s brothers closer in a low voice. The two had had some alcohol, and it was going to their heads. Their faces reddened in excitement and they hurried over.Adrian handed the suitcase to Jacob by the handle. He watched as Jacob laid it on the ground and opened it, exposing the thick wads of cash within.The Dott brothers' hands were trembling from excitement, for they had never seen so much cash before. At the thought that the bagful of cash was theirs now, wide smiles broke out across their faces. They each took a bundle and kissed it a couple of times.“I love this the most,” Jacob exclaimed excitedly. “The more, the better, and the more, the merrier.”“Me, too. Jacob, we’ll take ten bundles each. Let’s just keep the cash in this bag for now and when we get home, we’ll secretly divide it. For now, let’s not tell Mom, your wife, or any others.”The more people knew, the more talk there would be, so it was better for as few people as possible to know.Actuall

    Ever since Belinda passed away, they were worried their cruel sister would cancel their bank cards. Therefore, they withdrew all the remaining money from the accounts from which they received their monthly allowance. Adrian rarely used the money on that particular card of his because it was a meager sum to him. Tens to hundreds of thousands a month was not even enough to buy a high-quality watch. In the past, he would only transfer the money from that card to another account every one or two years. Otherwise, he would withdraw the money and use it to flirt with women; cash could always draw many gorgeous women to him. Not many people could resist someone who could take out bundles of cash. Adrian recalled that he had withdrawn a few million dollars. He kept it all in a safe. When their mother was still alive, they spent money extravagantly. When they switched cars, they would get cars that cost millions and pay for them in full. They also made full payment when buying houses.

    Jacob said, “Add one more million to it and make it six. My brother and I will get three million each. We won't do the job if you offer anything less than this.“After all, we’re the ones solving a problem for you guys. The benefits you’ll obtain from this are more than ten times the amount you’re offering us.“Besides, you three are adamant about killing Caroline, not us. We might even go to prison for this.“If we get three million each, we can consider helping you out.”Michael added, “That’s right. We may be poor, but our lives aren’t worth any less. There’s no such thing as wanting us to sacrifice our lives for you without giving us money.”Adrian went to take a fine bottle of wine and poured a glass each for Jacob and Michael. Meanwhile, he took a sip of his juice and told them, “We won’t be drinking alcohol since we have to drive and go to work. This is a precious wine I’ve been keeping. It’s sold for a high price outside.“Help yourselves to it. If you think it’s good,

    It could not satisfy their appetites. After all, the Clark brothers were asking them to commit a crime. If they were caught, they had to pay the price and go to jail for several years. Losing their freedom for a few years in exchange for a million dollars was not worth it at all. “Mr. Adrian, we do hate Caroline, but she won’t do anything to us if we remain in the countryside away from Jensburg and avoid offending her.“We can still live a peaceful life. Although we’ll face financial difficulties, we can still afford basic necessities and be free.“You guys are the ones in a rush to eliminate Caroline. Her existence affects your benefits the most. Of course, you can choose to accept reality by resigning from Fisher Enterprise, selling your assets, and leaving Jensburg.“If you flee to the countryside like us, you can enjoy a comfortable life away from Caroline’s control. You won’t have to reward us for doing your bidding and can save that money.”Jacob could accept not gett

    Twenty million dollars!It was the Clark brothers’ turn to exchange glances. They did not expect Jacob and Michael to name such a high price. While they could pay that amount, they did not want to hand the money to Jacob and Michael. After all, it was no longer a small sum to them, given their situation. Adrian was nervous that he would have to fork out the money himself. While he had significantly more assets than an ordinary person, most were fixed assets, and he only had a few tens of millions of savings. Therefore, he was unwilling to pay twenty million dollars out of the blue. After exchanging glances, Adrian said, “Twenty million is too much. We don’t have that much. We may be wealthy people to you, but it’s all fake. We aren’t as rich as you think.“You’re aware of the Fishers family rules—only daughters can be the successors. Sons can’t even take on the Fisher surname, let alone inherit the family assets.“When my mom was alive, she would support us financially in

    “If the plan fails, we have a backup plan—hit her bodyguards’ car and force her car to stop. That way, you two can take Caroline away and leave the rest up to us.”Adrian was prepared for various scenarios.If the car accident did not succeed, then they would first eliminate Caroline’s bodyguards. Without them, and with Darren on a business trip, they could easily take down Caroline, who did not know how to fight. After kidnapping her, they would kill and cut her to pieces before throwing her into the sea. No one would be able to find her. If Caroline were dead, the inheritance from Belinda would belong to the Clark brothers. They still could not take over Fisher Enterprise and the Fisher family or do anything to Liberty. However, with Caroline dead, there would be no one to teach the new and inexperienced Liberty. Whether Liberty could hold her ground was an unknown variable. After a discussion between Adrian and his brothers, they set two goals. Firstly, they would kill Car

    “Caroline will definitely receive retribution for this.”Adrian said with spite, “I shall see how she meets her death. The people in Wiltspoon will kill her sooner or later.“Does she think they’ll treat her well just because she betrayed her family? They despise us. She’s still my parents’ biological daughter. There’s no way she can be spared.”“You’re absolutely right.”The three men kept cursing Caroline throughout their journey. Upon arriving at Adrian’s villa, he parked the car. Jacob and Michael looked around after getting out of the vehicle. They thought Adrian’s place was luxurious. Adrian mentioned it was a small place, but it was already a lavish place to them. It was many times bigger than their house in the countryside. Adrian invited Jacob and Michael into the villa and they followed suit.Jacob whispered to Michael, “The Clark brothers are fighting with Caroline for the inheritance, Michael. They must be up to no good, calling us here.“No matter what request
