Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 157. Betrayed?
Glenn didn’t want to get into a lengthy debate as their time was very limited, so he reluctantly nodded in agreement. Sean looked more at ease, then helped his grandmother put on her coat. Once they were ready, the three of them quietly left the house.Pao and his partner immediately noticed Glenn approaching, and they started walking ahead to ensure there were no obstacles in their path. Luckily, it was quite deserted, allowing them to move quickly toward the village gate.They hid behind a wall as they neared the village gate, with Pao squinting to check the post, which appeared empty."I think it’s safe, let’s go," Pao whispered.As they were about to pass through the gate, headlights approached from the right, while from the left, a procession of torches drew near. The situation was completely off-plan. They couldn’t go back into hiding.“What now?” Sean looked confused.“Run to the car as fast as you can!” Glenn commanded.“But…”Before Sean could finish his sentence, Glenn scoop

Hazel recounted the incident that happened shortly after Glenn left to rescue Grandma Mari. Mei had called Hazel to the living room to discuss something. Their conversation was brief, focusing on Hazel’s plan to return to Eagertown.Mei apologized for not being able to join them, as she had work to do with her father. Hazel didn’t mind and told Mei she would be heading to Eagertown soon with Sean and his grandmother.After their conversation, they returned to their respective rooms. Hazel took a wrong turn in the corridor and got a bit lost in Mr. Zhang’s residence. She ended up near a room she wasn’t familiar with and overheard Mr. Zhang talking to someone on the phone, who turned out to be Mason."Darling, no one saw you? I'm really worried," Glenn whispered."I don’t think so, but there were surveillance cameras. I need to leave soon, love. I don’t want Professor Zhang to get suspicious and then we can’t get out of here.""You're right.""What I overheard was about a laboratory in

Finally, the plan reverted to the original one: Glenn and Sean would stay at Mr. Zhang's residence. This way, Glenn could keep an eye on the professor's movements. Essentially, they would both be wary of each other, just waiting for someone to slip up.Hearing that Hazel and Grandma Mari had arrived safely the next day, Glenn felt relieved. He could now focus on their plan, grateful to have Sean by his side. Victor couldn’t monitor frequently because Glenn feared Mr. Zhang might have bugged their devices. This mission relied solely on Glenn and Sean’s actions.Mr. Zhang was preparing to leave when Glenn caught up to him in his office. They were headed to a meeting at a luxurious venue called Ang Zho. It was an exclusive building used by high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen. The facilities were extensive, even offering accommodations in the ten-story building."Are you ready?" Mr. Zhang asked as he saw Glenn at the door."Anytime you are ready, sir."They were attending a rou

Mr. Zhang looked more relaxed and cheerful upon hearing that Dao was interested in Glenn. After dinner, they would head to the top floor. Everything was being prepared, and the guests would be escorted there in half an hour.“What’s on the top floor?” Glenn asked, curious.Mr. Zhang chuckled. “Party, women, drinks, what else? Do you think these meetings happen regularly just for business? Haven’t you noticed that all the guests are men?”It was the first time Glenn realized that Mr. Zhang was right. All the attendees were indeed men. Glenn didn’t expect this was how the upper class in Yuhan sought extra entertainment. He couldn’t judge them if it was part of their culture.“You can go home if you want. I’ll have the driver pick you up in the lobby,” Mr. Zhang added.This was Glenn’s chance to mingle and gather information, which could come during the ‘special’ event. Glenn took a deep breath and turned to Mr. Zhang.“No need, Mr. Zhang. If I feel uncomfortable, I’ll let you know,” Gle

In nearly every occupied room in the Ang Zhao building, sounds of conversations overlapped. Couples who had decided to retreat to their rooms for the night were sharing intimate moments. In the room occupied by Mr. Zhang and Wanwan, they too were sharing a heated atmosphere.Mr. Zhang’s head felt light, not just from the influence of alcohol, but also from Wanwan’s touch, which was far more intoxicating.“What project are you working on now, Professor? I follow your career, honestly… you’re amazing,” praised Wanwan with a soft laugh.Wanwan sat atop Mr. Zhang, staring intently at the middle-aged man who, in her eyes, was nothing more than a piece of meat, ready to be buried.“I have a secret project.”“Don’t want to share it with me? I’m good at keeping secrets.”“I told you it’s a secret.”“Hm… I’ll have to try to uncover it then.”A few minutes later, Mr. Zhang could only groan from the unbearable sensation. He wanted to explode but tried to hold back. The woman before Mr. Zhang was

They returned home, and Mr. Zhang resumed his rest. Glenn was able to talk to Victor on the phone, albeit in whispers. It seemed there were no bugs in the room, so Glenn could converse somewhat freely.Victor mentioned he had been in Yuhan since yesterday evening and had contacted Wanwan, a private agent who also doubled as a spy. Wanwan’s work was clean and reliable, as long as she was paid a fair price. So, Glenn didn’t need to worry about information leaking from Wanwan.“Where did you meet Wanwan?” Glenn asked, diverging from the conversation for some reason.“She was a friend from the orphanage, back in the day.”Glenn didn’t want to delve into Victor’s painful past, so he started listening to Victor's information. Clearly, Victor wanted Glenn to find a reason to leave Mr. Zhang’s residence to search for the laboratory with Victor.“I can’t do it alone, Glenn,” Victor said.“Yeah, it’ll be difficult for me to find a reason to leave. Plus, I’ll definitely be watched by Mr. Zhang’s
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 163. Partnership
Glenn and Sean, accompanied by two of Mr. Zhang's men, headed to a dim sum restaurant in the city. The map sent by Dao led them to a bustling area with no fancy restaurants in sight. Mr. Zhang's men parked the car near the entrance to an alley leading to the restaurant, waiting there. Unfortunately, it was a cul-de-sac, making it tricky for Sean to leave unnoticed by Mr. Zhang's men."You go meet Mr. Dao, I'll find a way to slip out and meet Victor," Sean said.Glenn agreed. "Be careful, Sean. Make sure to stay in touch with Victor.""Sure. And you too, be careful."They parted ways in the middle of the crowded alley. Glenn continued towards the restaurant while Sean searched for another way out. Suddenly, Sean saw a scarf vendor next to fruit and spice sellers. He quickly approached the vendor, bought the brightest scarf, and wrapped it around his head. Sean hurried out of the alley, successfully avoiding Mr. Zhang's men. He checked his phone, seeing Victor's location not too far a

Glenn’s assumption was correct. After waiting for more than two hours, Sean spotted Mr. Zhang’s car stopping at a traffic light at an intersection where they were waiting nearby. Sean quickly tapped Victor’s shoulder and pointed at Mr. Zhang’s car.“There they are!” Sean exclaimed.“It’s about time.”Victor followed from a safe distance, blending in with the surrounding traffic to avoid suspicion. However, as they continued onto a more rural, hilly road, the number of cars dwindled. Mr. Zhang's car turned onto a smaller asphalt road, only wide enough for one car. Victor pulled over, sensing that following further might trap them if they were discovered.“We're getting out,” Victor decided.“And then what?” Sean asked.“We walk.”Sean didn’t protest. They got out of the car, crossed the road, and moved through the underbrush, staying close enough to the road to keep Mr. Zhang’s car in sight. They followed this path for over a kilometer until they reached a walled compound. The lab was

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

195. The Good Thing
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

Mason and Beatrice's arrival at Glenn's office caused quite a stir, as no one expected the former rival to show up there. 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
