Chapter: 161
Liam stopped teasing her. He looked at Renee with deep eyes and strong emotions and said seriously,
�I can see that you haven�t completely let go of him yet. In that case, have you ever considered telling him your secret to see what he thinks?�
�What nonsense are you talking about?!�
Renee reproached Liam with a stern look. �It�s over between Stefan and I. What happened earlier was because� I was bewitched by his beauty. I�ll try my best to control myself in the future and not make that kind of mistake again.�
�Try your best?�
Liam playfully raised his eyebrows.
The implication was that it would happen again in the future.
Well, whatever. He knew very well what kind of person his boss was.
He could not be bothered exposing her lie.
Right then, a group of people appeared at the other end of the corridor and came towards them.
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,�
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 are 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!� JrNovels.com
