Chapter 80: Chapter 80
"Hmm, I hope this child can come and accompany me often. If you recognize her as your goddaughter, she would call me grandma, and naturally, she would visit me often, rather than me always asking her to come over."
Liora Hughes had never seen her mother . She never allowed her own grandchild to visit, yet she was so fond of a girl she hadn’t known for long.
"Then I’ll talk to Mason’s father when I get back and seek his opinion."
After all, her husband is the Prime Minister, and recognizing kin might not be a big deal for an ordinary family, but in hers, it’s a significant matter.
The old lady nodded, "Talk properly, Liora, don’t force it. If Jackson doesn’t agree, then forget it."
Regarding Lucy Eaton being Jacob Green’s wife, the old lady never mentioned a word from beginning to end.
"Dr. Green, are you not coming these days?" a colleague asked.
"Yes, my girlfriend is sick, feeling unwell," John Green said to several colleagues.
"What’s wrong with Miss Tang?" Sweet Gann asked concernedly.
John Green spoke in a low voice, "Let’s talk outside."
Sweet Gann followed her out.
"To be honest, she’s infected with AKS."
Sweet Gann looked at him incredulously, "Really? How did she get infected?"
"Not sure, the situation is very bad now," John Green said heavily, "This illness is basically untreatable. I’m planning to take her abroad for a check-up."
Sweet Gann agreed immensely, "Absolutely, the medical conditions abroad are much better. However, this disease is very dangerous and has a high mortality rate, you need to be mentally prepared."
"Do you know any doctor in this field?"
Sweet Gann shook her head, "I don’t. How about taking a few days off to go with you? To have someone to look after."
John Green politely declined, "No need, I can handle it myself."
"Alright, don’t forget to call me if anything happens."
The two parted, and when John Green turned around, his eyes were cold.
Today, he had learned from a call with Nathaniel Green that Sweet Gann had visited his residence at noon the day before.
Because they had been friends for many years, she was very familiar with his habits and even knew the password he often used.
So opening the door wasn’t a surprise to him.
Yet he never thought that years of trust had been misplaced.
It almost led to an irreparable situation, making him hate himself for life.
Luckily, he was saved by the miraculous old lady, avoiding misfortune.
Though he knew Sweet Gann had gone to his house that day, how could he act recklessly without evidence?
Therefore, John Green forced himself to patiently search for traces of evidence.
Quinn Group repaid the bank loan, but the company was in a weak, powerless state, with partners pressing for payments collectively.
For a time, Quinn Group was on the verge of collapse.
In the face of no support, the company executives held a meeting for a day, researching over and over again, but never came up with the best solution.
Four consecutive days passed, and the crisis at Quinn Group grew worse by the day.
Only able to repay part of the debt, they were already desperate.
Just then, the Green Group sent representatives to negotiate with Quinn Group, proposing an acquisition.
To avoid bankruptcy, this was the only way.
Benjamin Quinn felt unwilling yet was utterly helpless.
Despite being the largest shareholder, the other board members unanimously agreed to the acquisition. He had no choice but to comply.
Eventually, Benjamin Quinn chose to compromise.
Agreed to be acquired by Green Group. Read complete version only at NoveIꜰire.net
Moreover, it was a complete acquisition.
In other words, Green Group paid to buy the entire Quinn Group.
Kicking all Quinn Group executives out and bringing in a team from Green Headquarters to manage.
The company’s name was also changed.
From this, Quinn Group officially exited the commercial scene.
Though Benjamin Quinn completely resolved the crisis and received an acquisition fee, guaranteeing a worry-free life ahead.
As a businessman, his career was utterly destroyed, and having a considerable amount of money accomplished what?
Over time, living off it would eventually lead to having nothing.
Undoubtedly, Jacob Green’s revenge against their Quinn family was enduring and long-term.
He always felt that this was not the end.
Late night at eleven o’clock.
Stellan Quinn entered the house.
Benjamin Quinn and Autumn Fletcher got up in a hurry from sleep.
Seeing their daughter returned, their uneasy hearts finally settled.
"Quickly, tell mom, what happened? How did you lose contact when you reached the airport?"
"We hailed a taxi outside the airport to go to the hotel we reserved, but unexpectedly, the taxi took us directly to a desolate place. When we arrived, about ten men with guns were pointing at us, detained us for a few days, though they didn’t do anything to us, we just couldn’t contact you."
"It seems every move we make is under Jacob Green’s watch," Autumn Fletcher felt a sense of despair borne inside, "Now the company is gone, you can’t leave the country, if you dare to try, you might end up again. Jacob Green will definitely not give us any chance to rise."
"The company... is gone?"
"Acquired by Green Group, otherwise, you wouldn’t have returned so quickly."
Stellan Quinn trembled with rage, "Jacob Green is terrifying, everything is within his plan! Step by step, he brought our family to this state!"
"My bad strategy earlier, I calculated against him, if it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have acted so viciously against us."
"What’s the point of saying that now?" Benjamin Quinn said apprehensively, "I just hope he stops and spares us a path."
"Now the high society life is out of reach for Stellan, and she can’t go abroad, what should she do about her life plans?"
"Try to change the public’s perception of her," Benjamin Quinn suggested next, "do more charity work, do things that win public favor, change everyone’s impression of her, now there’s only this way forward."
This Saturday, Lucy Eaton took a day off.
She wore an off-yellow dress with a slender, white neck exposed.
Slinging a small bag, she drove to the old lady’s house.
Since her car was a sports car with only two seats, the rear seat, though spacious, was not suitable for passengers.
Fortunately, Liora Hughes came by car as well.
So, they took her car to the temple.
Once in the car, the old lady asked, "Lucy, would you like my daughter to be your godmother? Would that be okay with you?"
Lucy Eaton was incredibly surprised, "Godmother?"
"Exactly, my daughter only has one son, no daughter. I really like you and would like you to be my granddaughter. If you’re willing, from now on, my daughter is your godmother. She and her husband both agree."
"I’m truly flattered, to have the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister’s wife as my godparents, I’m really..."
"Don’t feel pressured, remember, you’re Mrs. Green, your status is not something ordinary people can compare to."
