My mom was in bad shape. When I rushed to the hospital the next day the doctor told me that if she
could wake up from her coma, it would be the best
outcome

“Okay I responded.
Then I followed Neil to a café outside the hospital.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDominic suggested that he could continue to cooperate with our company but needed to slightly
increase the price. This price was within our range.
Neil was sipping coffee on the side, barely saying anything. But Dominic kept glancing at him, as if
seeking his opinion.
“Alright. We’ll continue to cooperate at the price we agreed upon today. The weight in my heart finally
lifted, and my smile was a bit more genuine.
“Good. I look forward to our future cooperation Dominic shook hands with me and stood up to tell Neil,
“Mr. Whitmore, I’ll leave first.”
Neil just waved his hand and said. “Alright”
In the business world, the Whitmore family indeed had more influence than ours. I had to admit that.
After Dominic left, only Neil and I remained. I wasn’t sure whether to stay or leave.
Neil looked at me with a smirk on his face. He took a sip of his coffee, then stood up and said, “Now
that your concerns are resolved, what are you still doing here?”
“Thank you.” I said briefly.
“I told you, this is my compensation to you” Neil’s brows furrowed slightly. The harm I brought to your
family wasn’t intentional”
I smiled helplessly and said, “Neil, we really are perfect adversaries.”
Neil didn’t respond to this. He simply explained. “The SaintlyBio Corporation issue was Bonnie acting
on her own using my name. I’ve warned her, but you should still be careful because Gloria is also
involved.”
Gloria was the real puppet master here. Bonnie might bow down to Neil, but Gloria definitely won’t.
‘Got it. I must head back to the ward” It was getting late. I grabbed my bag and told Neil casually
We left the coffee shop, one after the other. Neil didn’t rush to his car, instead, he waited for me to get
