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 Mr. Zhang and Mei returned to their residence during dinner, Glenn suddenly initiated a serious conversation with the professor. Coincidentally, Mei was not with them as she had mentioned that she had some work she couldn't leave. Hence, Mei decided to return home later.“Where is Mei?” Glenn asked during their dinner.“She’s doing a bit of research. She’s always been hardworking and diligent.”“Oh, does she work in your lab, sir?”Mr. Zhang shook his head. “No, at another company. I’m no longer involved in any research, Glenn. I’ve sold my lab.”“Mr. Zhang, I know this seems sudden, but I have to return to Eagertown soon.”“Oh, why is that, Glenn?”Mr. Zhang's expression was one of feigned surprise. In reality, he probably found it hard to relax around Glenn in Yuhan. Moreover, if Glenn returned to Eagertown, Mr. Zhang wouldn't have to be suspicious anymore.“How did your conversation with Dao go?” Mr. Zhang added.“It was just a casual conversation, Mr. Zhang,” Glenn deflected. “

Upon returning to Eagertown, Glenn reunited with his family and immediately focused on his plan to develop a vaccine. With support from Dao, he knew he couldn’t afford to lose the trust of influential people in Yuhan. After taking a day or two to rest, Glenn arranged a meeting with Victor, Yvonne, and Hazel. Hazel needed to be involved in the discussion, as she was inevitably part of the issue."Those important people in Yuhan will definitely ask about the proposal and what kind of vaccine you’re going to make, Glenn," Victor said. "They won’t agree to collaborate without knowing anything.""Yes, I’ve thought about that. Sooner or later, they’ll demand certainty," Glenn nodded.Yvonne sighed softly, sipping a cup of cold chamomile tea as her mind raced. She was also worried after learning that the virus Mason planned to spread could wipe out a significant portion of the world’s population."Can’t we make an offer to Mr. Zhang?" Yvonne asked. "Maybe he’ll stop making the virus if money

It seems Victor’s prediction that Mason would find out about the vaccine Glenn was planning to create was spot on. Two weeks after Glenn sent the collaboration proposal and vaccine to Dao and Yuen, the two leaders sought Mr. Zhang’s opinion. Naturally, Mr. Zhang immediately contacted Mason to show him the vaccine formula Glenn had provided to Dao. This made Mason feel even more triumphant; he couldn’t believe how foolish Glenn was."What do you think, Mason? Should I say that Glenn’s vaccine is incompetent? Dao will end the collaboration, and Glenn won’t get anything," Mr. Zhang said during their video call.Mason, sitting with his chin resting on his hand, shook his head slowly. "No, just say it’s a decent vaccine. Dao will feel safe collaborating with Glenn."Hearing this, Mr. Zhang was puzzled. Didn’t Mason want to destroy Glenn? Why was he now seemingly supporting Glenn to move forward and create the vaccine?"Did I hear you right?" Mr. Zhang asked for clarification."Oh, you don’

Victor whispered.Glenn gave a brief nod. "Yeah, that’s them."Two months after leaving Yuhan, Glenn received an invitation from Dao, who wanted him to return to the city. As Glenn had anticipated, Dao wanted to discuss the vaccine project in more detail and finalize the collaboration contract."Mr. Glenn, Mr. Victor, welcome to Yuhan," greeted Dao’s representative politely."Thank you," Glenn replied with a short nod."Mr. Dao is on his way to the meeting place at the Tang Mien Lan Hotel. We have prepared a suite for you there to rest.""Excellent," Victor responded.They got into the limo that was waiting for them, everything about it exuding luxury. Glenn could feel that Dao's influence was much greater than Mr. Zhang’s, which meant he had to be very careful dealing with this high-rankin

"Come on, sit down quickly, dessert will be served," Dao chuckled as Glenn and Victor re-entered the VIP room.As they sat down, Yuen whispered something to Dao, and they both smiled. Dao cleared his throat and steered the conversation in a more serious direction."So, Glenn, how’s the progress on the vaccine we’re developing?" Dao asked, glancing at Mr. Zhang. "I’ve already asked for his opinion on the potential of your vaccine. He said it’s very promising.""Oh, did he?" Glenn turned to Mr. Zhang. "I wasn’t aware of that.""Is it really that good, Zhang? Don’t fool me," Dao laughed heartily, but his laughter carried a hint of warning for Mr. Zhang not to mess around."I wouldn’t joke about a vaccine," Mr. Zhang replied. "What Glenn is developing is indeed top-notch. He’s shared his noble intentions with me, so why would I lie?"Dao nodded. "Yes, I was just kidding. No need to take it seriously, Zhang.""What percentage of the vaccine have you produced, Glenn? If you don’t mind shari

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

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.
