Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 168. Hidden Agenda
168Glenn stepped off the private jet and walked towards two figures waiting at the edge of the runway. Victor followed closely behind, quickly matching Glenn’s stride."So those are Dao’s people?" 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

Mr. Zhang returned home, feeling resentful and vengeful. As soon as he entered his study, he swept everything off his desk with his hands, causing all the items to crash to the floor. Mr. Zhang's subordinate, who was about to enter the study, stood at the doorway, not daring to disturb the angry professor."I will destroy them. Dao, Yuen, all of you! You've always looked down on me!" Mr. Zhang's teeth clenched, and his fists tightened.Mr. Zhang certainly could not match Dao's power or Yuen's wealth, even though he was well-off himself. However, with the virus in his possession, the professor could eliminate both men. He could make them suffer from illness and then disappear from the world forever."Professor," the subordinate called out cautiously."What?" snapped Mr. Zhang, feeling annoyed."There's something we need to show you, sir.""Can't it wait? I'm busy!"The subordinate tried to remain persuasive with a gentle approach. "Sir, this is quite important and concerns Mr. Glenn's
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 171. A Meeting
“Hello, Glenn. Sorry to bother you,” Mr. Zhang started the conversation politely, but his tone revealed his anxiety. “There’s something I need to ask you. It's very important.”“What about, Mr. Zhang?”“Did Hazel ever tell you anything? Maybe she overheard something while she was staying here?”“At your place?” Glenn was fishing for information, suspecting Mr. Zhang had finally reviewed the surveillance footage. But Glenn maintained a nonchalant demeanor.“Yes, at my place,” Mr. Zhang replied.“No, not at all. Everything was fine.”There was a brief silence between them, and Victor quickly approached Glenn, curious. The professor’s call was highly suspicious.“Here’s the thing, Glenn. On my surveillance camera, it seems Hazel was eavesdropping. This isn't an accusation, but her behavior was quite clear. Can you ask her what she heard?” Mr. Zhang said. The middle-aged man continued, “I don't want Hazel to hear things that aren't her business. This is just a precaution.”“Wait, you mean
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 172. Agreement
Glenn returned to Eagertown promptly after ensuring with Dao that their partnership agreement would be signed within three months. Naturally, Hazel welcomed him warmly, having missed him dearly.After reuniting intimately, they lay together wrapped in a blanket, with Hazel nestled in Glenn’s embrace.“Mr. Zhang won’t bother you or us, will he, love?” Hazel asked, still looking anxious. “I’m afraid he might keep an eye on us, even here in Eagertown.”“He doesn’t have that kind of reach, Hazel. I think he’s more pressured by Mason. Mr. Zhang must be busy completing his virus and vaccine project.”“Will he report to Mason?”“Hmm… from what I observe, probably not. If Mason finds out, he might cancel the project. Mr. Zhang is more fearful; he’s very cautious. Not the reckless type.”“So, there’s nothing to worry about, right?”Glenn nodded and showered Hazel with sweet, loving kisses. He wouldn’t let anyone touch or harm her again.“What about Yolanda?”“I’ll talk to Yvonne tomorrow.”“Ho
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 173. The Rise
That evening, Yvonne made time to have a serious conversation with Yolanda. After dinner, they sat in the living room, enjoying warm tea before bedtime. Yolanda sensed that her daughter had something important to discuss.“What is it, Yvonne? You must want to talk to me about something,” Yolanda prompted.Yvonne knew better than to beat around the bush, as Yolanda disliked long-winded discussions. So, Yvonne decided to get straight to the point.“Glenn Smith wants to meet with you, Mom. He wants to discuss a business collaboration,” Yvonne said.Yolanda remained silent for a moment, waiting for more details.“He thinks you’d be a suitable sponsor. He can provide more details if you agree to meet with him,” Yvonne continued.“The Smith family is above us. Why does he need me? Is that young man trying to mock me? Is he offering a collaboration out of pity or something?” Yolanda replied.This was exactly why Yvonne disliked discussing business matters with her mother. Yolanda’s paranoia
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 174. Friendship
The friendships among upper-class women, particularly Irina, proved highly beneficial for Glenn. It didn’t take long after his meeting with Yolanda for Glenn to arrange an appointment with Stacy. With recommendations from both Yolanda and Irina, Stacy was eager to meet Glenn to discuss the vaccine business. They met at a common venue frequented by upper-class women, and Glenn arrived there with Victor.Glenn had been waiting for over 20 minutes with no sign of Stacy. Unlike some women who enjoyed being fashionably late, Hazel and Irina were always punctual for meetings. His phone rang, displaying Stacy’s name.“Yes, ma’am?” Glenn answered politely.“Glenn, I’m so sorry, but I’m still caught up at a charity event,” Stacy chuckled softly. “Oh dear, I even said ‘caught up.’ Is it okay if you wait another hour? Or should we reschedule?”Glenn glanced at Victor, signaling that Stacy would be another hour late. Victor’s initial reaction was surprise, but he quickly nodded, agreeing that wai
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 175. A Bit
"Can you believe it, it’s like being involved in a high school conspiracy again. Girls taking each other down over a guy," Victor complained after Beatrice excused herself from their presence.Yes, Glenn couldn’t deny it. Love issues are one of the most crucial things for humans, especially women. When it comes to matters of the heart, women can become the most terrifying beings. Glenn had experienced it before, and he was actually a bit scared of dealing with women.Especially women whose hearts had been hurt, and who had to be patient in executing their revenge. It’s those who stay silent that hold the greatest anger.However, Glenn felt sorry for Beatrice.Revenge, hatred, all of it like a time bomb that would eventually explode at any moment. Glenn wondered how Beatrice could make peace with her heartache, and release all that anger to become a woman who could forgive herself. And eventually, Mason too.Stacy arrived an hour later, and had a serious conversation with Glenn. There

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?

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

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.
