Chapter 551 Gregory didn't move, just gazed at me, his face a mask of seriousness. "Jane, are you trying to givea heart attack?" "...I'm sorry." I murmured I knew he was also referring to the incident earlier in the day. I reached out and hooked his pinky finger, gently shaking it. "I was wrong, Gregory. Thinking about it now, I still feel terrified." "Scared now, are you?" "Yeah... scared." I looked up at him. "The moment I heard that gunshot, all I could think about was what you would do if I died..." Before I could finish, he suddenly pulledinto a tight embrace, his chin resting on top of my head. "You've got sconscience, at least. Knowing this, you can't be so reckless again." "Okay." I gently rubbed against his chest, suddenly curious. "But if I really had died, what would you have..." He abruptly pinched my face, cuttingoff with a stern look.

"Greg, it's just like you thought. Those guys went back to the abandoned factory near the Sky Island Mansion, but for sreason, they switched locations. When I got there, the cigarette butts in the ashtray were still warm." Gregory's expression darkened slightly. "Seems like there's someone else behind today's incident." "Someone else?" "Yes." Gregory nodded. "Check immediately when those guys arrived in Vista Town and where they cfrom." Lucius agreed, then added, "By the way, PL Group dropped the lawsuit. They even proposed that as long as we pay the appropriate patent and compensation fees, we can continue selling the chips." Hearing this, Gregory was silent for a moment, a hint of sarcasm crossing his lips. "Isn't that convenient?" After putting down the phone, Dorothy eagerly approached Pearl.
"Mom, Jane is willing to give up the inheritance?!" "Yes." A flicker of confusion crossed Pearl's eyes. "She and Ramona haven't known each other for long. Why would she willingly give up such a large inheritance for her?" Even if she wasn't going to get all of the wealth, as Ramona's biological granddaughter, she would still get a considerable amount. Enough for many families to live comfortably for generations.
And yet, Jane was willing to just walk away from it? Dorothy wasn't in the mood to ponder too deeply. She urged, "Why overthink it? It's just family ties. Let's quickly find a lawyer to draft the agreement and take the antidote to her at the hospital before she changes her mind." The prospect of owning real assets of her own made her somewhat impatient.

Her words seemed to touch a nerve in Pearl, who then made a decision. "Go upstairs and change your clothes. We're going out." "To the hospital?" "First to get the antidote, and also to meet someone." Dorothy frowned, "That gangster?" Even though she had agreed in the morning, the idea of actually meeting him was still repellent.
In her view, those people were like rats that couldn't stand the light unworthy of any connection to her! Pearl asked, "Changed your mind?" "Why should I meet him if he botched the job so badly?" Seeing the disapproval in Pearl's expression, she finally capitulated, "Okay, fine. I'll listen to you." G123 Tap to Bounce Insanely Popular Super Fun Game! Ready to Burst!
