Neve blinked, feeling like a light bulb had gone off in her head. She looked at Jacob’s smirk and asked sarcastically, slouching in her chair, "Jacob, how come I never noticed that you were so ambitious before?"Noticing that her tone was a bit confrontational, Jacob asked, "What do you mean?""I can help you, but I have some conditions.""What kind of conditions?"Neve held up four fingers. "I want a 40:60 split.""A 40:60 split?" Jacob raised his voice. "You've got some nerve.""What, is that too much? Fine, forget it then." Neve pretended to leave, but Jacob hurriedly stopped her. "Wait, stop talking big. Do you have any good ideas?"Neve smirked cunningly as she sat back down with her arms crossed. "Even if you hadn't asked me, I would have still wanted to settle the score with that bitch. Don't worry, I've got this covered."Seeing her so confident, Jacob believed her. "Alright, I'll be waiting for your good news.""Don't worry," Neve replied."But just to be clear, if t

Jade, who felt embarrassed as Colin praised her, told him with a smile, "Professor, please don't say that. This is inseparable from everyone's efforts."The others laughed upon hearing her words.At that moment, Jade's phone rang, and she saw that it was Lloyd calling. She seemed to know what he wanted to say and pressed the reject button directly.Unexpectedly, Lloyd had thick skin. He called again after his first attempt was rejected.Jade had no choice but to answer the phone. "What is it?"She didn't have the slightest bit of goodwill when it came to Lloyd. If she had seen his true colors earlier, she wouldn't have been hurt so badly."Are you coming down, or should I come up?" Lloyd knew Jade didn't want to see him, so he resorted to stubbornness.Jade wasn't afraid of him, so she snickered into the phone. "What, are you threatening me now?""I wouldn't dare. I just want to have a meal with you. That's not too much to ask, is it?" Lloyd continued. "I'm downstairs waiting f

After Lloyd returned to his company, he slammed his office door shut heavily. Sitting in his chair, he couldn't figure out why Jade was so cold, even though he had relaxed his stance so much.The door was pushed open. He was about to get angry, but he scowled when he saw who it was. "Why are you here?""Lloyd, we haven't seen each other in days. Haven't you missed me at all?" Neve draped herself over Lloyd pliantly. Lloyd instinctively wanted to push her away, but she held on tightly."Neve, have I been too indulgent with you?" Lloyd said impatiently. "Don't forget, I haven't acknowledged you as my girlfriend."Neve didn't care at all and still wouldn't let go. "I don’t mind if you don't acknowledge our relationship. After all, you are the person I love."Her words made Lloyd feel nauseous. Looking at Neve's face, he couldn't help but think of Jade. They were both children of the Severins, yet why was there such a big difference between them?"What do you want?" Lloyd asked.Nev

It was precisely because of how powerful Phantom was that Lloyd treated it as the company's top secret. Except for him and a few senior executives, no one else knew about its existence. But not only did Neve know about it, she also wanted it. What exactly did she intend to do?"How did you find out?" Lloyd's face was twisted with shock, his gaze on Neve cautious.Neve, however, just smiled charmingly. "Darling, money is a wonderful thing. It can fulfill all my desires."Knowing there was a mole within the company filled Lloyd with an indescribable feeling. The people he had worked with until now were people he trusted. Yet, they had easily betrayed him for money, which was truly laughable."No way." Lloyd immediately rejected Neve's request. Once Phantom appeared, it would surely bring endless trouble.Neve wasn't in a hurry to get it. Instead, she patiently told Lloyd, "Lloyd, don't rush to refuse. I want Phantom entirely for you. Haven't you always wanted Jade? As long as you

Lloyd had not been around since the last time he had visited Jade. Jade had also forgotten about it, focusing all her attention on studying and managing her company.When her phone rang, she picked it up and saw it was a call from Neve. She promptly rejected the call.A minute later, she received a text from Neve.[Grandma fell ill and is currently in the hospital. Whether you want to come or not is up to you.]Grandma had fallen ill? Jade's mind went blank for a moment, then she quickly grabbed her bag and rushed out the door.On the way, she kept wondering. Leah had always been in good health, so how could she suddenly have fallen ill just like this?Upon hastening to the hospital and finding the ward, she saw both Neve and Jacob waiting outside. When they saw Jade, they turned to her."Oh, so you remembered to come." Neve couldn't help but sneer.Jade ignored her and asked, "What's going on? Grandma has always been in good health, so how could she suddenly fall ill? Have the

Seeing Neve lose her composure so easily, Jacob gave her a nudge, thinking she was useless."Jade, why are you looking at us like that?" Jacob tried to appear sorrowful. "We're all sad about Grandma's accident. I used to be a jerk, but I'm her grandson. Her accident has hit me harder than anyone else."Jacob wiped away his crocodile tears. If Jade didn't know his true nature, she might have believed him."It's good that you think that way," Jade said lightly.Neve chimed in. "Things are what they are now, and we have to accept them. The doctors still can't find out why Grandma collapsed or when she'll wake up. As her grandchildren, we can't just sit idly by.""What do you suggest?" Jacob and Neve started performing a double act."Taking care of Grandma is our responsibility. I suggest we take turns. One person per day," Neve proposed.Jacob nodded. "I agree."He looked at Jade and asked, "What do you think, Jade?"The fact that they had come up with a plan to take care of Leah

Colin shook his head. "It's simply not possible in such a short time. Unless you can find an antidote. Otherwise..."He didn't finish his sentence because Jade had already understood—without an antidote, Leah would never wake up.Jade stumbled back and sank into the sofa, her gaze vacant.Colin, who saw how distraught she was, couldn't bear it. "Jade, don't be too upset. There's always a solution. We won't give up until the very end."Jade snapped out of her daze and forced a smile. "Thank you, Professor."Colin left with his students, leaving Jade alone in the office.She had never felt so helpless before. She felt as if she had suddenly lost her pillar of support, which left her feeling empty inside.The issue could only be ended by the culprit. Jade believed that this must be Jacob and Neve’s doing.After readjusting her mood, she regained her composure. She had to find out what had poisoned Leah. Once she discovered the source, the other party would surely have the antidote

Jade's heart sank. How could Jacob not have taken precautions when he had made up his mind to have her? She closed her eyes, no longer struggling, as if she was resigned to her fate.Seeing this, Jacob was delighted, and his movements became slightly gentler. "My dear sister, it's good that you've come to terms with it."Suddenly, Jade raised her leg and kicked his groin. Caught off guard, Jacob howled in pain, sounding like a pig being slaughtered.Jade quickly rolled off the bed and stood on the floor, watching Jacob writhe in agony on the bed, her gaze filled with menace.The trauma he had caused her in her previous life had never disappeared. Unprecedented rage and humiliation surged through Jade.She clenched her fists tightly, her gaze falling on the flower vase on the coffee table, her resolve growing stronger."Jacob, you're nothing but scum." Jade raised the vase high, aiming it at Jacob's groin.She wanted to ensure he would never be a man again.Jacob seemed to rea

Neve’s heart had been lurching all night. This was the most crucial night for their success or failure. If they succeeded, that bitch Jade would live in torment forever.All her fame as Miss Clotheap, the legend she was in the medical field, and her reputation as the century's most capable woman would become a joke. Neve wanted everyone to know that Jade had been assaulted by her own brother.Just the thought of Jade being drowned in gossip made Neve so delighted that she was unable to sleep.She got up and poured herself a glass of red wine. The burning liquid slid down her throat, making her feel a bit lightheaded."Jade, you must be enjoying yourself now, huh?" Neve laughed recklessly, unable to stop. Anything that made Jade suffer made Neve ecstatic.Just then, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Jacob calling, she quickly answered, "Hey, what's up?""It's not looking good. Hurry on over. Jade is dead," said Jacob's anxious voice through the phone.Neve's heart sank as she as

Chapter 270

Neve screamed in fright, covering her eyes and refusing to look inside the room, afraid to see Jade's body."Keep screaming and I'll choke you to death." Owen deliberately threatened her in a rough voice. Neve trembled in fear, shutting her mouth tightly but still keeping her eyes closed."Who are you people?" Neve asked in a trembling voice.Jade walked up to Neve and asked, "Who do you think I am?""You... You're not dead?" Neve slowly opened her eyes, uncertain when she saw Jade in front of her.Her gaze fell on Jacob, who was lying on the floor unconscious, and she turned pale from fear. "What did you do to him?" "What you're seeing," Jade said vaguely, intentionally adding pressure to break down her defenses.Neve, who was terrified, shuddered as she tried to feel for Jacob's breath but dared not to."Jade, why did you deceive me into coming here?" Neve asked tearfully."How was Grandma poisoned?" Jade raised her voice, the ruthlessness in her gaze terrifying Neve."I
