Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 148. The Offer
Chapter 148No one knew what would happen when an angry mob surrounded three trapped individuals. Even Glenn couldn't predict the next few minutes. Would he, Hazel, and Sean still be able to breathe and survive?But Glenn felt that he had to protect his wife until the last drop of blood. At least, when Glenn bought time until help arrived, Hazel would be okay."Get them out of there!" commanded the leader of the village people.Glenn's and Sean's bodies were dragged out, and when one of them tried to touch Hazel, Glenn immediately threw a punch."Get your hands off her!" Glenn threatened firmly."Bastard!" shouted another.They pushed Glenn's body until he fell to the ground, and without hesitation, they started kicking him mercilessly. Glenn's voice sounded choked as he endured the relentless pain.But all Glenn could think about was Hazel. The woman screamed, begging for Glenn not to be hurt. Glenn couldn't bear to see Hazel cry, so his emotions reached a boiling point. Clenching hi

Just as the village leader was about to speak, the sound of an approaching helicopter suddenly interrupted. Bright lights shone down, breaking the concentration of the crowd.In that moment, Glenn seized the opportunity. He struck the village leader, knocking him to the ground, and Sean joined in to help. Ropes descended from the helicopter, and armed men slid down.Of course, the villagers scattered immediately, afraid of being shot on the spot. Glenn's men quickly secured Hazel, keeping her behind them. They pointed their guns forward, ready to shoot anyone who dared to resist.The helicopter descended lower, and Glenn grabbed one of the ropes. His men swiftly secured the knots, and Glenn held Hazel tightly in his embrace. Sean also climbed up into the helicopter.Once Glenn’s men had secured their boss, they followed suit, gripping the ropes. The helicopter quickly soared into the sky.As the helicopter flew away, the villagers ran after it, shouting angrily. But it was just an exp

Mei immediately hugged Hazel as soon as they met. Before returning home, Hazel visited Mei at her residence. They had spoken on the phone when Hazel was kidnapped, which made Mei very worried. “I panicked because I was afraid something would happen to you. They didn’t hurt you, did they, Hazel?” Mei asked. Hazel shook her head. “Just a few bruises, but my husband took the worst of it.” Mei glanced at Glenn with concern. “We have some very effective medicines. I’ll have the servants treat you, Glenn.” “No need. I’m fine,” Glenn replied with a chuckle. Mei shook her head. “These medicines are really effective, even though they’re traditional. You’ll feel their effects in just a few hours.” Sean, who was with Glenn and Mei, looked at Glenn. “Yeah, just try them. Your bruises and wounds look pretty bad.” Glenn gave in. “Alright.” “After you’re treated, my father wants to meet with you, Glenn. Hazel will stay with me, and Sean… well, you can do whatever you want, but don’t l

Glenn stared directly at Mr. Zhang. “He’s going to create a virus that will collapse the entire world, sir.”Mr. Zhang was stunned for a moment. Being from a generation before millennials, he didn’t fully understand the complexities of viruses and their consequences. People in the past didn’t have such complicated problems, even though their lives were much harder and tougher.“A virus? Like in the movies? People turning into zombies, is that what you mean? Is that even possible?” Mr. Zhang bombarded Glenn with questions.“No, not like that, sir. It’s more of a disease. Something like a cough, cold, and fever, but with fatal consequences.”“The flu? You just need to rest and eat chicken soup. You’ll be better in a few days.” Mr. Zhang chuckled. “Don’t try to scare this old man, Glenn. That’s just a common illness.”Glenn realized that giving a frightening description of the COVID-19 virus would only make Mr. Zhang paranoid, or worse, stress him out. That would be very dangerous.So, G

The next morning, Glenn had a serious conversation with Mr. Zhang, naturally trying to realize the idea that Hazel had accidentally suggested. They talked seriously on the balcony, while gazing at the beautiful backyard garden of Mr. Zhang's house.“Making supplements, huh?” Mr. Zhang muttered.“But with the best ingredients, that can be as affordable as possible for the lower classes too.”Mr. Zhang chuckled softly. “Now, now… you have to face reality, Glenn. There’s no medicine or supplement of the highest quality labeled with a cheap price. You get what you pay for, you should know that.”“If produced on a large scale, I’m sure we can reduce production costs.”Mr. Zhang's lips pursed, and his forehead furrowed, showing he was thinking hard. Glenn’s idea seemed almost impossible. Because still, there would be negative impacts.The first impact, reducing production costs would mean very little profit. If there was investor funding involved, Mr. Zhang was certain it would not satisfy

Mr. Zhang was in his office when Glenn and Sean came to see him. The father of Mei was busy on the phone. When he saw the two figures standing at the threshold of his half-open office door, Mr. Zhang motioned for them to come in.“Alright then, we’ll discuss this at the meeting. Yes, yes… I’ve already contacted Dao, he seems interested,” Mr. Zhang said to someone on the phone. He gestured for Glenn and Sean to sit.“For the details, you can hear from him later. Alright then, see you at the meeting, Yuen,” concluded Mr. Zhang.He ended the call and placed his phone on the desk. Mr. Zhang’s face looked relieved and somewhat enthusiastic.“It seems my associates are interested in the business proposal you’ll present later, Glenn,” Mr. Zhang said. “I deliberately gave them a little information beforehand to pique their interest.”“Well, that’s good,” Glenn nodded.“I don’t think you need to worry; I’ve handled everything.” Mr. Zhang cleared his throat softly, then glanced at Sean. “Oh, is

You can stay here with your grandmother,” said Mr. Zhang.It wasn't a good idea according to Glenn. Not that it mattered, Mr. Zhang was quite skilled at playing his part to help Glenn in the first place. Telling Mr. Zhang part of the plan could be both good and bad.It was possible that Mr. Zhang had already told Mason, meaning Glenn was now in Mason’s grasp. That way, Mason could easily destroy Glenn through Mr. Zhang.However, Glenn had thought of another strategy. With both of them feeling confident, believing Glenn to be naive and trusting, both Mr. Zhang and Mason would likely lower their guard.Because of this, Glenn actually wanted the people close to him to keep some distance. Including Hazel, who should return to Eagertown. This made Glenn consider whether he should have Sean and his grandmother stay in Eagertown instead.Glenn could arrange that, and Arthur and Irina wouldn’t mind. Staying with Eugene would be fine as well. Sean and his grandmother would live well there.“We

After dinner, Glenn went to his room to have a serious talk with Hazel. Whether it was the right time to reveal everything, Glenn had to ensure his wife's safety. Without an explanation, Hazel might be just as stubborn.Glenn leaned against the headboard, sitting next to Hazel with their legs stretched out together. Hazel clung to Glenn as if she didn’t want to be far from him.“I need to have a serious talk with you, love,” Glenn began.Until now, Glenn’s problems had come from a future known only to Connor and Mason. Whether it was wise for Glenn to tell Hazel, it was a heavy burden for him to keep such a big secret.Hazel was very honest, good, and loyal. Meanwhile, Glenn was still hiding something very crucial. Even though, if Hazel knew, she might think Glenn was insane or something.Hazel looked up at him, “What do you want to talk about?”“I want you to return to Eagertown as soon as possible.”Hazel's expression immediately changed. “But, you said…”“Please listen to me first

As time passed, Glenn and Hazel enjoyed peaceful days while awaiting the birth of their baby. In the month of their baby’s due date, Glenn received the surprising news that Yvonne and Victor were getting married. “Glenn, hurry up!” Hazel hurriedly put on her earrings as they were almost late for Victor and Yvonne’s wedding ceremony. Glenn quickly grabbed his jacket from the back of the chair and hugged Hazel from behind. Seeing Hazel with her big belly made him fall in love with her even more. “Not now,” Hazel grumbled, annoyed. The more Hazel was irritable, the more Glenn enjoyed teasing her. They stepped out of the house and got into the car. Glenn drove at a moderate speed, occasionally reaching for Hazel’s hand and kissing it gently. Hazel felt incredibly happy, showered with love from her husband. When they arrived at the church, the doors were almost closing as the ceremony was about to begin. Glenn and Hazel entered, accompanied by the quiet laughter of the attendees. They

“Mei!” Hazel immediately hugged her friend, whom she hadn't seen for months.Mr. Zhang’s daughter had decided to visit Hazel in Eagertown after the situation in Yuhan had stabilized. She brought a lot of gifts for Hazel, thinking Hazel would want to try some unique treats from Yuhan.“Sorry I came so late, I’ve been incredibly busy in Yuhan,” Mei said.“It’s okay. I know you had a lot to take care of.”They walked through the corridor and into the living room. Glenn, who had just come out of his office, joined them. They all sat comfortably on the sofa.“How does it feel to be expecting a baby?” Mei asked with a giggle.Hazel was due in four months. Time had flown by, and her belly was already showing significantly.“I feel ugly,” Hazel complained.“Ugly? You look so beautiful, Hazel. I’m even jealous of you,” Mei replied. “Being a mother is a privilege not every woman gets.”“I don’t know… I feel so emotionally unstable.” Hazel pouted.Glenn reached for Hazel’s shoulder and hugged he

The effects of the COVID-19 virus had completely vanished in Eagertown, and everyone had returned to their normal activities without worry. Glenn’s company had become more renowned, producing vaccines not only for COVID-19 but for other diseases as well. Glenn was very busy, but he always made time for Hazel.Glenn had just left the hospital after accompanying Hazel for a pregnancy checkup, when they happened to run into Beatrice. Apparently, Beatrice had just arrived there.“Mrs. Zimmerman, what are you doing here? Are you sick?” Hazel asked.“Oh, I’m not sick, Hazel. I have a meeting with some doctors here to discuss sending medical aid to remote areas in Latin America.” Beatrice chuckled softly.“You’re really busy,” commented Glenn. “Take care of your health, Mrs. Zimmerman.”Beatrice nodded. “Thank you for your concern, Glenn.”Then she continued, “Since I happened to run into you here, Glenn, there’s something I’d like to talk about. I need your help.”Glenn was momentarily tak

“Where’s Glenn?” Yvonne asked as she and Victor approached Hazel, who was already sitting and waiting at the café where they had arranged to meet.“He’s taking Sean and his grandmother to Ms. Eugene’s place.”Yvonne only nodded briefly, then took a seat. Victor immediately started flipping through the menu, feeling very hungry.“They’re going to stay there? It seems Eagertown isn’t suitable for Sean,” Victor commented.Hazel sighed softly. “It might be too noisy here.”“Some people just don’t feel comfortable living in the city, Hazel. It doesn’t mean they don’t like being with you.”“I know.” Hazel only nodded wearily.Hazel felt dizzy and her stomach was uneasy, but she forced herself to meet Yvonne and Victor because she wanted to discuss the charity. Yvonne was going to provide a report on the funds that had been allocated and where they had been sent, including to Ms. Eugene’s place.However, Hazel didn’t want to talk about that at all; she just wanted to lie down in bed.“Hazel?

The atmosphere there was busy, as everyone was hard at work building the town. Glenn got out of the car along with Sean and Grandma Mari. As Glenn expected, it seemed that Sean and the grandmother were immediately captivated. Both of them looked at Glenn.“This is a very nice place, Glenn,” praised Sean.From the crowd, Ms. Eugene emerged with a wide smile. She immediately greeted Glenn, Sean, and Grandma Mari.“This must be Sean and Grandma Mari,” nodded Ms. Eugene. “Mr. Glenn has called me, and I am really delighted if you want to stay here.”Grandma Mari agreed. “Of course. I feel at home already.”“You can look around if you like,” offered Ms. Eugene.Sean and the grandmother held hands, and they soon mingled with the people busy at work. Meanwhile, Glenn and Ms. Eugene watched over the bustling activity.“You’re very busy here?” asked Glenn.Ms. Eugene chuckled. “We got a lot of help from Mrs. Zimmerman’s charity and Miss Yvonne.”“Oh, really?”It turned out that the charity ment

A week after Mason's funeral, Beatrice visited Glenn's office. According to Mason's mandate, the company acquired by Glenn would still provide Beatrice with the remaining funds. It was no small amount since Glenn had bought Mason’s company at a fair price.Beatrice had signed the documents and handed them to Glenn. She looked very composed, though her heart had been broken twice after losing Mason forever.“It’s all done, Glenn. Thank you for your cooperation,” Beatrice said.“Once again, my deepest condolences, Mrs. Zimmerman.”A faint smile appeared on Beatrice’s lips. “What happened to Mason did break my heart. But in the end, he tried to be a good person, and I am still proud of him.”There was a light in Beatrice’s eyes, indicating she had come to terms with everything. Even when Mason returned, he was the Mason she had once known.“He will be remembered as a good man. I will make sure of that,” Glenn nodded.“Thank you, you are very kind.”“So, what are your plans moving forwa

Eleanor brought a cup of hot coffee, and though she had changed her clothes, her face still looked disheveled. She smiled sweetly as she placed the coffee on the table, then sat next to Mason. She tried to touch him, but Mason gently moved her hand to the sofa.“Once again, I’m sorry, Eleanor. But I can’t continue our relationship,” Mason said.“You’re going back to Beatrice, aren’t you?”“No. But we’ve made peace, and I know she doesn’t want me anymore.”“Then why? Why are you going back to her?” Eleanor asked, her eyes sad. “Stay here with me.”Mason gave a faint smile, his face looking sorrowful. He felt like the most despicable person in the world, having hurt both Beatrice and now Eleanor. They both deserved happiness, something Mason couldn’t offer.When Beatrice decided to keep their relationship as friends for now, Mason accepted it. He felt he had to be fair, which meant Eleanor also needed to find her own happiness.“You need to find your own happiness, Eleanor.” Mason kisse

Beatrice, looking calm, went to see Irina and Hazel, who happened to be in Glenn's office. Meanwhile, Mason headed straight for the elevator.Hazel, Irina, and Beatrice gathered in the meeting room. Irina and Hazel seemed eager to hear what had brought Beatrice and Mason together to Glenn’s office.“Did you make up?” Irina asked.Beatrice nodded. “As friends, I think. I can’t just accept Mason’s feelings, I don’t know… I don’t want to force myself.”“Yes, of course, Mrs. Zimmerman. Even though you're his wife, you have the right to find your own happiness. If it’s better to be friends, then that’s what you should do. But if your feelings say otherwise...” Hazel began, but Irina interrupted her.“No! Don’t go back to him. I can’t imagine it. Just stay friends, Beatrice,” Irina said firmly.Beatrice chuckled. “Yes, I’ll just follow wherever our story leads.”“He cam

The foggy memories slowly became clearer as Mason stepped onto the porch of the house he had long abandoned. Dark thoughts crept into his mind—if he knocked on the door, would he be welcomed? Or would everything be different?Mason took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell of the seemingly deserted house.Several minutes passed, and Mason continued to stand there, waiting. Finally, the front door opened, and Beatrice appeared. Despite looking older, her face was bright. She had found her own peace.However, the arrival of Mason seemed to shatter that peace instantly.“Mason?” Beatrice looked at him in disbelief.“I’d like to talk to you, Bea. May I? That is, if you’re willing.”Beatrice’s eyes remained fixed on Mason’s pitiful figure. Whatever had happened, something terrible must have hit Mason hard. Was this something Beatrice should celebrate?Regardless of Mason’s current troubles, maybe he had fought with Eleanor and decided to come back home.Beatrice’s ego raged inside her. A
