Chapter 1158
"Have you considered a partnership between Azure Group and H group?" Stefan asked slowly. "We've been
competing for years, but there was never a clear winner while losses continued to mount. Maybe we could reach
new heights if we worked together."
"A partnership?" Renee was surprised-the man took her for quite a ride, only to start discussing business?
It didn’t make sense. Azure Group was small fry to H Group at best, and they were at completely different levels.
Even if Azure Group did see rapid growth and aggressively cut a territory of its own in the stock market, they were
far from the level needed to necessitate a partnership with H Group.
So why would Stefan suddenly come up with something like that? Was he extending an olive branch?
"Take your time to consider. If possible, we can discuss the details with Quinton next Wednesday." With those words,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStefan unlocked the car doors and said coolly, "And if there's nothing else, you can get out of my car."
He appeared aloof and impassive-the stereotypical look of a businessman.
Perhaps in his perspective, Renee was a 'deal', and everything he did tonight was to seal the deal!
After getting out of Stefan's car, Renee strolled along the coastal road for a long time, until she finally got a taxi to
return into the city.
Suddenly, she got a phone call from Plum, who excitedly said, "Miss Renee? Where are you right now? Good news!
Master Quinton has returned"
Already?!
Renee's face lit up in delight. She did not expect Stefan to come good on his word so soon. "Great! I'll be right
back!"
She returned to Carmine Pawnshop as fast as she could, and immediately saw a lanky figure at the lobby when she
did.
That aloof stature, the familiar mask-it was none other than Quinton.
"Quinton! Are you alright?!" Renee rushed towards him excitedly, checking him from head to toe and relieved to
see him unscathed.
"Of course I'm fine, silly. Stefan's always been a coward, and he was afraid to harm me. I would have lodged with
them if they didn't chase me off," he scoffed.
He stood with his hands in his pocket, looking completely unaffected by his abduction-almost as if he just returned
from a vacation. After all, having fought Stefan for years, he was used to close shaves.
Renee, however, sighed deeply and said worriedly, "Stefan is no pushover, Quinton. You might not be as lucky even
if you escaped this time... have you ever thought about not fighting him?"
"Not fighting him?!" Quinton's expression was immediately ice-cold, and his tone was one of disappointment. "Have
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou lost your mind?! You dumped me, your children, and Azure Group just as the company was on the rise-just to
care for a crippled member of the Hunt family! Even if I allowed that, you're now telling me to stop fighting Stefan?!
Do you want our whole family to be destroyed before you really understand how serious this is?!"
"What are you talking about, Quinton? Our families have always been on good terms and supported each other.
The Hunt family was never our enemy..."
"You've really lost the plot..." Quinton sighed, and told her sincerely, "No friendship or enmity lasts forever. The only
thing that does is profit-right now, Azure Group is a great threat to H Group, which means we are affecting their
profits. Given how they usually immediately wipe out a potential threat, just as they did with this place, I hope you
can at least see the benefits of making the first move, and denying them the chance to attack us!"
"No, they won't!" Renee shook her head, determined. "The Hunts are not that despicable, and Stefan isn't that
ruthless. Your abduction was proof-they had every chance to hurt you, but they released you, because they are
hoping we can put the past behind us to work together!"
"Work together?" Quinton narrowed his eyes contemplatively.
Seeing that her brother was almost convinced, Renee struck while the iron was hot. "Yes. Instead of losing together,
why not put the past behind us and win together?"
