Chapter 587

Renee immediately got straight to business. She asked Leia with a serious expression on her face.

‘You have the money already? So fast!”

Leia was so surprised that her jaw dropped.

She heard from her father that the money her brother loaned from the bank totaled to almost 800 million dollars including interest. Renee actually managed to raise so much money in less than three days? That’s not normal.

“Renee, where did you get the money from? Did you…”

“Don’t worry, I promised Grandpa that I wouldn’t go back to that circle anymore. I borrowed this money from someone. I’ll return it when it’s due.”

“Who did you borrow it from?”

“Don’t you worry about that. You just have to know that… the money came from a legitimate source.

There’s no high interest rate or any danger. We can safely use it.”

Renee did not want Leia to know too much, so she deliberately kept Mr. Q a secret.

“No way!”

Leia shook her head and said, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. I can’t think of anyone in Beach City who can gather almost 800 million dollars at a moment’s notice except for the Hunt family. Did you… borrow the money from the Hunt family?”

“Umm…”

Renee did not expect Leia to jump to that conclusion.

However, it made sense that she would.

After all, in Beach City, only the Hunt family had the financial power to lend someone 800 million dollars of clean money at a moment’s notice.

Renee simply went along with Leia’s assumption. “Looks like I can’t hide it from you. It’s true, I went to the Hunt family to borrow the money. They felt guilty for what happened a few years ago, so they’re willing to help me overcome this difficulty.”

“Then the Hunt family isn’t that evil after all. If they knew that their son died to save you, and you’re borrowing this money to help the Azure Group replace the H Group, they would probably be fuming!”

‘That’s none of my concern. The business world is a battlefield; either they die or we die. After years of waiting, the Everheart family finally managed to find an opportunity. I won’t let it go that easily.”

‘True that. Back in the days, when the Everheart family was powerful, lots of people wanted to befriend them, but after their downfall, everybody tried to keep their distance. That’s how realistic our society is.

If we care about justice too much, we’ll just get stomped!”

After her experience with William Jones, Leia now had a more pessimistic view of human nature.

She no longer believed that good deeds would get rewarded. Instead, she now believed in the law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest!

The two rushed to the Osborne Mansion that very night.

Geronimo Osborne was reading the newspaper on the sofa.

Madam Osborne cried and begged next to him. ‘Honey, surely your anger has subsided by now. It’s time to let Liam out. He’s in terrible pain after getting whipped by you. His physical health is poor to begin with, and his condition is made worse because you keep him locked up. If anything happens to him, I wouldn’t want to live anymore either!”

“If he dies, he dies. All he thinks about is women. I don’t want a stupid son like that!”

Geronimo Osborne said angrily, ’Didn’t he say that his Boss would definitely come to save him? I’ll show him how selfish his Boss actually is. After finding out that he’s in so much debt, there’s no way she would be able to gather that much money. She would run away immediately. There’s no way she would care what happened to him!”

Renee walked in with a smirk. “Sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Osborne, but I, Renee Everheart, definitely care about what happens to Liam.”
