“Eliza is probably working together with Jewell Corporation’s competitors. She alone wouldn’t have been able to put Jewell Corporation in this state.”
Chester secretly gnashed his teeth. He had been vigilant, but never in his dreams did he expect the woman to ruin his plan.
“Lately, there has been negative news about the Jewell family hospitals. In fact, the private hospitals under Jewell Corporation think that they’re the best local hospitals. So, not only are illegal rebates a common practice, but the staff’s attitude toward the patients, as well as the hospital’s environment and hygiene, are also quite bad. This time, many problems have been exposed.”
After some thought, Shaun said frankly, “No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.”
Chester was dazed. “Are you saying that I have poor management skills?”
“You may have strict requirements, but as time passes, it’s only natural for other employees to pretend to obey you. In fact… it’s all because your company has been suppressing your competitors so badly that without any competition now, the people under you are starting to act unscrupulously. If not for people in serious medical conditions, no one would want to go to the Jewell family hospital, giving other competitors a chance.”
Shaun rose to his feet and said earnestly through the phone, “I’ll wait for you to return and make changes to Jewell Corporation three months later. You should reflect on yourself in jail.”
“Thank you for being honest with me.” Chester suddenly laughed. “I’m not angry with you only because you’re the one telling me these things. If it had been someone else, they wouldn’t even dare to…”
“In that case, do you know your biggest shortcoming now? Chester, as a man, you need to be more open- minded. We’re a lot more privileged than ordinary people, so we’ve been given the best food and best education ever since we were born. However, these can’t be the reasons we look down on others. Many ordinary people are intelligent, but you just don’t give yourself a chance to discover that.”
Shaun said, “Do you know why I know these things? It’s because I, too, was once at my worst, and I almost lost everything. I realized that an ordinary person’s life isn’t easy either and that everyone deserves to be respected.”
After that, he let out a light sigh as he put down the phone and left.
Chester sat on the chair with a complicated gaze.
Drildool.
On the fifth day in Drildool, Eliza fell sick.
She had never been here before despite having lived two lives, so when she first arrived, she was amazed by the beautiful, snowy peak.
There was a huge difference in temperature between day and night. What was more, she would head out early and return late to explore the schools and villages in the poor areas. As her body could not take it, she started to develop a high fever.
Amid her daze, she seemed to spot a petite figure walking toward her.
“Charity? Are you Charity? It’s been a while since we met.”
“Lizzie?” Charlize got a little emotional looking at that figure. “Are you coming back?”
“No. Charity. Please live a good life on my behalf and take care of my mom.” The figure said with a low voice, “I feel exhausted, and after I leave, I won’t come back anymore. “
“Lizzie, don’t leave. I can’t live on your behalf. This body is yours, and I’ve occupied it for too long. I’m grateful that you’ve given me the chance to take revenge and fulfill my wishes. Now… there’s nothing I’m sentimentally attached to anymore,” she said anxiously.
The figure flashed a smile at her. “Are you sure you’re not sentimentally attached to anything?”
Charity was stunned, and a trace of confusion flashed across her eyes. “At this point, I don’t feel hatred or love…”
“But you still can’t get over it.”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Go and find it. I believe you can, and once you do, you might be able to find love again. Charity, live a happy life for me, will you? You have to find happiness. From now on, Eliza will not exist this world anymore, and you’ll be the real Charity.”
The figure slowly moved away.
Charity’s body began to struggle. “Lizzie, don’t leave.”
“Charity, wake up.” Someone was tapping her face, desperately trying to wake her up.
Amid the daze, Charity eventually woke up, only to see Max’s handsome, cinnamon-colored face. He was holding a towel.
“Are you still Charity?” Max felt uneasy when he saw the blank look on her face. He said, “You were calling ¡® Lizzie’ just now.”
“Who do you wish I am?” Charity came back to her senses and looked up at him.
Max was quiet for a few seconds before answering her seriously, “It’s fine whether you’re Lizzie or Charity. Anyway, I’ll protect you both.”
He would take care of Lizzie as though she was his sister. As for his love for Charity, he would keep it deep in his heart.
Charity was momentarily dazed. Then, she sat up with difficulty and laughed awkwardly. “Thank you for saying that.”
“Charity… Did you have a nightmare?”
Max gently smoothed her moist, black hair.
She was sweating profusely just now.
She was also mumbling some strange words.
“Perhaps I was hallucinating from the fever, but I think I saw Eliza, and she said she was leaving.” Charity looked down at her hand. “You know, I’ve always had a feeling that she hadn’t left and wanted to return this body to her. However, since I’ve dirtied it, Eliza wouldn’t possibly want it back. “
Seeing her despondent and blaming herself made Max’s heart ache with pity for her. “No. Lizzie is kind. She won’t care about it.” a ?
Charity looked bewildered.
Max forced a smile and said, “I’ve spent more time with Lizzie, so I know her better. She’s a really pure and innocent girl, or she wouldn’t have fallen for Monte’s sweet words. We used to talk on the phone, and she refused to listen to my advice. When a man like Monte wants to get a woman, he knows to be gentle and spoil her. Lizzie hadn’t been in a relationship before, so she was unaware of these wealthy young master’s tactics.”
Charity clenched her fists for a moment.
“By the time she was infatuated with Monte, he was already fed up with her. Eliza, who was still ignorant, simply couldn’t withstand the blow.” Max sighed. ” She was too silly to kill herself for a man. She had forgotten how difficult it was for Mrs. Robbins to raise her. Fortunately, you’re… living on her behalf.
Otherwise, Mrs. Robbins would definitely commit suicide too.”
After hearing that, Charity remained silent for some time. “This entire time, I’ve been avenging myself. When I return, I’ll avenge Eliza’s death.”
Monte, huh?
She had interacted with him once before.
However, Chester was targeting her at that time, so she was too busy to deal with Monte.
“Go ahead. I’ll back you up.” Max glanced at her and said with a smile, “In fact, I’ve always wanted to take revenge for Lizzie. However, because of my unique identity, all I can do is hide in the dark. Besides, I know nothing about business. I think I’m quite useless sometimes.”
“Who says you’re useless? You got me all that manpower, which made things convenient for me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to do many things.” Charity’s pale lips curled into a smile.
“Alright. Just lie down.” Max wanted to help her lie down.
Yet, when he touched her soft and slim waist, his hands felt as if an electric current was coursing through his whole body.
He never thought that a woman’s waist could be so slim.
Having been spending most of his life in wars, Max was inexperienced in relationships. For a moment, his handsome face turned hot.
Luckily, he was tanned enough, so it was not visible.
He tried his best to conceal his embarrassment with a shy smile. Then, he said, “I’m not capable in many areas, but I do have quite some manpower. After I return from my holiday, I’ll arrange for some skillful people to stay by your side. They’re experienced fighters.”
Charity was dumbfounded. As she was about to open her mouth, Max chided, “Don’t turn me down.
Otherwise, I’ll let Mrs. Robbins know. I’m sure she’ll come over to look after you in person.”
“Stop threatening me with Lizzie’s mom.” Charity glared at him helplessly. Her clear, dark eyes were not as cold as before because of the fever. On the contrary, they looked softer.
Max’s heart softened right away. “I have no choice. Since Eliza has left, it’s your duty to take care of her mom. The Jewell family isn’t easy to deal with. What if Chester gets someone to deal with you? Although he’s in jail for the time being, the Jewell family has trained many capable people.”
Charity fell silent.
She was well aware of that point.
For example, Ken, who worked for Chester, used to be a mercenary overseas and had killed many lives.
“Great.”
Max touched her head after noticing that she was quiet.
