After listening to Leia's plan, Liam's furrowed brows finally relaxed a bit.At that moment, Geronimo came to his room. Geronimo seemed extremely proud, like a victorious general.“Son, how are you doing? Are you disabled yet?”He spoke to Liam with a smile. He was obviously in a good mood.Liam's expression was cold. He did not even want to take one look at Geronimo. "Thanks to my father's mercy, I'm still breathing.”“Tsk tsk, sounds like you're still angry with me. I did it for your own good. As my son, you can have any woman you want. Why do you have to go after a divorcee?”“Fortunately, the divorcee has some conscience in her. She raised enough money to pay back your debt with the bank. In a way, it shows that you're indeed my son. You have some charm...”Geronimo proudly patted Liam's shoulder.“...”There were still some deep whiplash marks on Liam's shoulder, so Liam immediately winced in pain.Leia instantly spoke up for her brother. She said angrily, "Dad, Liam has
“Over the past few years, Ren and I have spent a lot of time together, especially on the Azure Group, which we started together. To be more precise, she spent a lot of time and effort on the Azure Group, while we merely paid for it. If I really were to sever my relationship with her, the problem of the Azure Group's ownership must be made clear. It will either belong to me or to her.”Liam paused for a moment to study Geronimo's expression before he said tentatively, "If it goes to me, then I'll have to pay her compensation. If it goes to her, I'm too ashamed to ask her for money, so...”Geronimo waved dismissively. "It's just a stupid company. I heard it's been sustaining losses every year. It doesn't have a good prospect. As long as you promise not to get involved with her anymore, she can have the company.”In Geronimo's opinion, the Azure Group was just a small project started by his hopeless romantic son to impress a woman. Although the Osborne family paid for the starting capi
Hunt Villa was empty. The garden was deserted. The living room was not lit. The inside of the villa was pitch black. The air had a stale odor.The only light that was turned on was the one in Stefan's room on the second floor. A tall figure could be seen at the window.Renee walked into the living room and climbed the rotating staircase to the second floor.Stefan's door was slightly ajar, and through the crack in the door, she could see a man standing by the window.However, she could only see his back.The back figure was tall, straight, and cold. It must be Stefan!At that moment, Renee felt a passion that she had not felt for a long time.She rushed forward and pushed the door open. "Stefan! I knew you were still alive!”The man by the window slowly turned around. His thin lips curled into a smile as he stared at Renee with mischievous eyes. He shrugged and said, "My dear cousin-in-law, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not that man you're thinking about day and night.”
She did not want to cripple him and be pestered by him her whole life!“I knew it. You still care for me and can't bear to hurt me...”While swinging around his arm that almost got dislocated, Jovan continued to make fun of Renee, challenging the limit of Renee's patience without any fear of the consequences.Renee tried her best to calm herself down. "You're not actually trying to replace Stefan and take away everything that belonged to him, are you?”“Stefan is history now. Hunt Enterprise cannot remain leaderless forever. I'm doing Hunt Enterprise a huge favor by taking over the company right now. How can you call that taking away?”“Hmph, your plan won't go that smoothly. Even if Stefan is no longer here, Grandpa Timothy and Uncle Alexander are. They won't let you do whatever you want. You should just give up if you know what's good for you, or you might lead yourself into a desperate situation!”Renee had always felt that Hunt Enterprise would not easily have a change in dyn
Renee raised her eyebrows and feigned ignorance, "What exactly do you mean? I don't understand.”“Did I not make myself clear enough?”Jovan greedily took in the sensation of being so close to the goddess of his desire. His hand boldly slithered towards Renee's slender waist. His deep voice was cheeky, but carried a hint of seriousness too. "In ancient times, there was Helen of Troy, the face that launched a thousand ships. If I can have you, I would launch a thousand ships for you too.”Renee couldn't help but roll her eyes. “Get to the point!”“Simply put, if you become my woman, Hunt Enterprise is yours to do with as you please. If you want it to shut down, it'll shut down, and if you want it to keep operating, it'll keep operating.”There was a cold determination in Jovan's eyes.The whole world knew that he, Jovan Hunt, was just a carefree playboy. He had no interest at all in competing for power or building a business empire.The reason why he had been working so hard to r
Both of them were shocked to see each other.Renee had conflicting emotions regarding her former mother-in-law. On the one hand, Renee hated her, and on the other hand, Renee sympathized with her for having lost two sons in a row.But Francine also had conflicting emotions regarding her former daughter-in-law.From her initial dislike and disgust of Renee, to appreciation, and later on, to hatred—it was enough to write a novel that was millions of words in length!“Good evening, Madam Francine.”Renee swallowed awkwardly and greeted Francine, "Fancy... running into you here.”“Someone told me the light in my son's room was turned on so I rushed over to check, but turns out it's just you...”Francine's eyes were filled with both hatred and sadness, which gradually turned into gloom. She lowered her head and said, "Sure enough, there are no miracles in this world.”Renee was a mother too, so her chest tightened hearing that. She comforted Francine softly, "My condolences. Don't b
Upon seeing Renee's reaction, Francine's eyes brightened. She excitedly pulled Renee's hand and asked, "Did you think of something? Tell me, quick!”“I knew my son wouldn't die so easily. I knew he left clues for you!”Renee shook her head. Her helpless expression seemed sincere. "He didn't leave me any clues, but if even you, his mother, can't be sure if he's dead, then I'm even more uncertain... At least, so far, I've only learned about his death from other people.”“Since you've already chosen a grave for him, surely you must know where his corpse is?”Francine's bloodshot eyes were sad as she said, "Stefan's father said he had an accident and died in the hospital. Apparently, the way he died was horrible. His father was worried that I might not be able to take it if I saw him, so he was cremated overnight. We chose the grave together, but I still don't believe that he's dead. I think they must be planning something in secret, so I turned a blind eye and went along with their ac
But her mouth was still as vile as ever. She kept spouting various unpleasant words, challenging Jovan's patience.Fearing that something more serious was going to happen, Renee immediately stepped forward to stop them. "Jovan, let go of her. She's your aunt. This is disrespectful.”“Hmph, have you ever seen such a cruel aunt? If she doesn't respect me, why should I respect her?...”Jovan had no intention of letting Francine go. His eyes became increasingly cruel, as if they contained decades of accumulated anger. He looked like he was going to break Francine's hand!“This woman is the most arrogant and snobbish woman I've ever seen. In her eyes, everyone else except for her two precious sons is trash. Even though she humiliated me for years, I never thought of getting back at her, but she just had to insult my mother... I'm not venting my anger, I'm teaching her a lesson on my mother's behalf!”“Aah! My hand! You little bastard! You immediately start to retaliate the moment you g
