Chapter 1571
"You won't?" A chuckle escaped Jovan. "But Grandpa said that you would. He painted you
as a soft-hearted god who would show me mercy, and that weakness of yours would be
your demise. He begged me, hoping I would let you go!" Jovan laughed, mocking Timothy.
He'd never assumed that Stefan would go easy on him-he just hadn't pushed Stefan’s
limits yet.
"I knew it!" Stefan asked urgently, "What did he offer you?" Timothy had been mysterious
lately, and always chatted with Jovan behind Stefan's back. Stefan figured that Timothy
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmight have heard rumors about the board of directors being unhappy with him, and
figured that Jovan would defeat Stefan in a battle for the company, so he had tried to
make peace with Jovan humbly for Stefan's sake... but that wasn't the truth. Stefan could
have fought back, but he was exhausted, and he had something else he valued more now.
He didn't care about fighting Jovan anymore.
"He said he would let me have full power over Hunt Enterprise, and you'll only be there for
major decisions, and you'd still get the year-end dividend," Jovan said in amusement, as if
Timothy's generosity was something of a joke to him.
"Isn't that what you want?" Stefan bit out, his gaze steely. "Didn't you want to gain more
power than me and control Hunt Enterprise for years? Did you say yes?" "No, I turned him
down," Jovan said lightly.
"You turned him down?" Stefan's eyes widened, and he felt strangely disappointed. Maybe
he had secretly wanted Jovan to take over the company so he could have a more laid-back
life with his family.
Jovan noticed Stefan's disappointment and smiled. "That's the same look Grandpa had
when I turned him down. Clearly, you both want me to take over Hunt Enterprise. Is it
really such a burden? You both seem so eager to get rid of it, and I have to say, I'm not as
excited to take it over now." "No, that's not it." Stefan sighed. "I believe you know more
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthan me whether it’s a burden or not. It's just that my perception is different now-the
things I tried hard to get in the past are no longer important to me because I have
something more important to protect. I don't want to fight you anymore." Maybe it was
the serene environment that caused Stefan to reveal his inner thoughts to Jovan. Besides,
Timothy knew him well-after Stefan had received Jovan's blood and eyes, he could no
longer regard him as his enemy. Even though they had been fighting all this time, Stefan
ultimately hoped to reconcile with Jovan and see them both get the ending they wanted.
"You don't want to fight me, and I want that too... but I can't help it that we both fancy the
same thing." Jovan's eyes gleamed, and he smiled deviously. "Can you give me what I
want?"
