Chapter 60 "Ten billion dollars." Lily cast a fleeting glance at jack. "I can spare him for ten billion dollars. I don't think that's too much to ask for, right? Yannick said flatteringly, "Not at all! Jack's fortunate enough that you're willing to spare him." Then, he turned and slapped Jack hard on the head. He said fiercely, "You'd better thank Ms. Brooks right away" Jack didn't dare to refuse. He thanked Lily repeatedly, "Thank you so much," Lily lowered the brim of her baseball cap and said to Jack, “Wait forin the ward tonight.” Upon hearing this, Yannick said gratefully to Lily, "In addition to the promised ten billion, I'll also send you svaluable herbs as compensation, Lily was genuinely interested in the herbs Yannick was talking about. Hence, her expression softened as she said, "Bring them over to me. Lettake a look at them." "Sure. I'll have someone bring the herbs to you when I get back."

"I'll leave you to your studies, then. Goodbye, Ms. Brooks." Lily nodded in acknowledgment before she headed back to the classroom.
It was recess time, so Nancy had no control over what Lily wanted to do.

It was unclear who spoke first, but someone eventually broke the silence with just two words, "I'm impressed." Someone soon chimed in, "I'm impressed too." "Yup, I'm impressed too." These students couldn't think of anything else to say except that they were impressed with Lily.
Getting the head of the Dalton family to submit wasn't an easy task, and that was what made Lily Brooks so impressive.
To these students, Lily appeared to be a far more formidable figure than Jack. They definitely wouldn't want to provoke her.
On the way back to the hospital, Jack had many questions that he wanted to ask Yannick. However, he dared not say anything after seeing Yannick's grim expression.
After what seemed like an eternity, Jack couldn't help but blurt out, "Dad, who exactly is Lily Brooks, and why are you so afraid of her? Ten billion is half of our family's fortune, yet you're giving it to her so easily. As a result, the Dalton family's influence in Bridgeport will plommet several levels, is it really worth?" Jack couldn't wrap his head around Yannick's decision no matter how hard he tried.
Jack admitted that Lily was breathtakingly gorgeous. He had never sem a girl more beautiful than her. He might have pursued her if she hadn't opposed him to help Anya.
However, her beauty was one thing, and her family background was another story.
He had hired a private investigator to investigate Lily. She was just a country girl. Her father had disappeared, and her mother had remarried. She was raised solely by her grandmother.
Getting into fights and trouble was nothing new for her, not to mention her terrible academic performance.
Jack was puzzled by his father's immense fear of Lily despite her lack of power or family background.
Yannick cast a nonchalant glance at Jack and said, "Ten billion dollars in exchange for the safety of the Dalton family, don't you think it's worth it? "No matter how capable she is, she's just a high school student. She can't bring down the whole Dalton family all by herself, right?

If the Dalton faha family yencounters even stronger enemies in the future, are you going to hand over the Dalton family to the enemies just like that?! Jack was frustrated.
It was true that he'd been acting arrogantly. Over the years, he had relied on the Dalton family's power and locked down on the poor. But at least he wasn't as cowardly as his father, who would panic at almost everything If he were to take charge of the Dalton family in the future, he would undoubtedly advance their development to surpass their current states.
Yannick let out a disdainful snort as he looked at Jack emotionlessly.
"Don't assthat I'm unaware of your plotting. You wantto stake the entire Dalton family to fight m e against Ms. Brooks for your revenge.
How naive! How do you think the Talion family attained our current prestige?" Peter Grill CH/F-PSE
