"Give up?” Clarence snorted. “It’s not in my book! Everything could be settled with money. Do you think thepeople who remained neutral were righteous? No way!”
"What do you mean by that?"
Clarence mentioned three names. "We can get them on our side. I have evidence of their wrongdoings. We canblackmail them with this.”
Seren calculated and frowned. "Even if we gathered them, our vote is a tie with Jean’s.”
Clarence smiled slyly. “We can try to get Peter on our side.”
"Peter Beauvort?" They were surprised.
“He is one of the people who built up Beauvort Group. He belonged to the neutral faction. He had always beenfair and upright. He only insists on what he believes is right and does not side with others. He had a bad temper.Would he be willing to help us?” Seren asked.
“That’s true. He hadn’t made any mistakes and we couldn’t blackmail him.” The others agree.
"That's not necessarily true. He has his weaknesses. We must get a hold of it. His youngest son who is six yearsold is quite weak. He had to stay in the hospital most of the time. Peter doted on him a lot. As long as we can finda famous doctor to cure him, it would be easy to gain his favor.”
Jean’s a loser as long as Peter is on our side! Clarence thought happily.
Seren murmured, “It’s a good idea.”
“We can’t let Jean have his way. As long as I’m still a shareholder, I have the chance to bounce back.”
Clarence gave his followers some tasks.
“I will contact Peter on my own…”

Jean had a busy day at the company.
He was ready to go back in the evening.
He had only put his pen down and Frederic was here.
"Your mom cooked your favorite dishes. Let’s go back and have dinner together.”
Jean wanted to refuse but Frederic beat him to it. “I know you don’t feel like going back but your mom wasworried about you and the company. She’s not sleeping well these days. She purposely cooked for you today.Don’t disappoint her.” novelbin
Jean had no choice but to follow Frederic.
Wrenn was happy to see him. She kept putting food on Jean’s plate.
“You don’t look good. Eat more so your health can improve faster. Don’t get sick again,” Wrenn nagged whileserving him a bowl of nutritious soup.
“Drink this. I asked for the recipe from Neera, it should taste the same.”
Jean was touched by Wrenn’s actions.
He hated the smell of the nutritious soup previously. He would only drink it reluctantly when Neera prepared it. Ittasted better now. Maybe I could accept everything that is related to Neera…
After finishing dinner, he planned to rest for a while.
“Dad, Mom, I’m tired. I’m going upstairs to rest.”
Wrenn was happy because Jean wasn’t leaving soon.
“Okay. Look at how tired you are. Hurry up and go to sleep."
Jean was exhausted. He didn’t have the energy to go back and forth anymore.
