Hans went silent for a moment. He pressed his lips and said, “I used to think that you value your relationships more than anything. For the sake of relationships, you did not care about how others saw you. But now, I think you’re an irresponsible person. To be honest, I’m just an assistant, but I’ve directly and implicitly advised you before. The truth is that you had an affair just after your wife gave birth. In my opinion, you should’ve sent Miss Neeson away with some money…”
“Enough. Stop talking.”
Rodney felt a sharp throb of pain in his temples. ” Leave. I approve of your resignation.”
“Thank you.” Hans nodded. “President Snow. This is my last piece of advice to you. Go back to the company now, and stop staying by Miss Neeson’s side every day. You’ve offended all of Australia’s women with your affair, and they are Osher Corporation’s source of income. If you don’t settle this problem through public relations as soon as possible, the consequences will be grave.”
Rodney rubbed the middle of his brows in annoyance.
Hans moved his legs. “You might not be clear on this, but Osher Corporation is going through its worst reputational crisis in history because of you. Many cosmetics companies want a bite of Osher Corporation’s market, especially Freycatheli. They’ve introduced a new skincare product, and they’re even collaborating with e-commerce platforms to hold large-scale events for New Year’s Day. Mireya, in particular, has gained the sympathy of all women as the victim. Freycatheli has been one of the top three best-selling skincare companies consecutively for the past three weeks…”
“Skincare?” Rodney was surprised. “Aren’t they specializing in cosmetics?”
“They’ve already gained a good reputation in the cosmetics industry, so they’re taking the opportunity to reposition and launch skincare products.”
Hans sighed. “Mireya’s global reputation as a cosmetics chemist is pretty good. Everyone is willing to buy her products. The new skincare products she’s launching were initially developed for you to launch at Osher Corporation some time ago. However, both of you had fallen out afterward, so… After all, you guys didn’t sign a contract back then. There was only a verbal agreement.”
Rodney was stunned.
He vaguely recalled that incident in his mind. Back when Freycatheli had some minor achievements, Mireya asked whether Osher Corporation needed new products, which she and her team could help to develop.
That was when Rodney and Mireya’s relationship was going well. He even joked that her formulations were worth billions of dollars. What did she say back then? She said she was helping her husband and could give away a few formulations. By then, his skincare company and her cosmetics company would dominate the world, and they would be the greatest couple in the cosmetics industry.
Those words sounded fresh in his ears when in fact, it had been a long time since then.
Rodney could only hear his hoarse voice after a long while. “Isn’t Mireya in the hospital? Can she still manage the company?” “Currently, Cate is in charge of the company. She has managed Hudson Corporation before, so she’s active in management and operations. On top of her experience, she has wide connections, and many manufacturers want to connect with her. I think Freycatheli’s strategy and goals have changed.”
Rodney did not say another word.
Looking at the situation, Hans left silently.
No one knew how long Rodney stood downstairs.
Rodney did not come to the ward even though Sarah had waited a long time.
The nurse came to put her on the IV drip.
It was a new nurse who came that day, and she did not manage to insert the needle properly the first time. As such, Sarah threw a tantrum. “Get the head nurse over to insert the needle for me. Doesn’t she know my identity? Why did she assign some random person who treats me like a lab rat? Are you guys asking to get fired?”
The nurse’s expression turned cold. “I know even without you telling me. You’re a mistress, right?”
“Who’s a mistress? Do you have a death wish?” Sarah immediately sat up straight. Her face, which was covered in wounds, looked mean and scary. “
I’ll have someone fire you right now.”
If it were before, the nurse would be afraid. However, she did not want to tolerate it anymore. ” Do you really think you’ll marry the successor of Snow Corporation? You’re delusional. The Snow family doesn’t like you at all. Snow Corporation has released a statement this morning that Jessica will be the successor to Snow Corporation from now on. The shares have been allocated too, and Rodney won’t even get a single percent.”
Sarah’s mind exploded, and she shouted agitatedly, “That’s impossible.”
“Why would I lie? The whole hospital is discussing this topic. Everyone in Australia knows that Rodney cheated on his wife just after she had given birth. Snow Corporation even dismissed his position. We all knew you were the mistress from the start, but we didn’t dare to say it because we were afraid of offending Rodney. However, we’re not afraid now. Anyway, the Snow family doesn’t care about Rodney at all.”
The nurse mocked. “We women hate mistresses like you the most. You deserve to be permanently infertile.”
“What do you mean infertile?”
“Oh, didn’t you know? Your body has been affected by the miscarriage. Your chances of getting pregnant in the future are close to none.”
“Get lost. You, get lost.”
Sarah was quite badly agitated that she looked like a lunatic. She even pushed the IV pole to the ground and damaged it.
However, it was as if she did not hear anything at all.
Her mind was filled with the nurse’s voice.
Jessica had become Snow Corporation’s successor? Rodney had been chased out of Snow Corporation? Gosh. How did things turn out like that?
Sarah wanted to marry that Rodney, who could inherit Snow Corporation.
How was Rodney different from the past if he had lost Snow Corporation?
Sarah was about to go crazy.
Her limbs were paralyzed, and her face disfigured. She was even infertile. However, Rodney was back square one in the end.
At that moment, Sarah felt a heat in her throat. She was so angry that she spat a mouthful of blood.
The nurse was startled.
She quickly pressed the bell to call for an emergency.
When Rodney outside heard a few doctors running toward Sarah’s ward, a bad feeling arose in his heart. He went back to the ward in a hurry.
Sarah was lying on the bed, and the doctors were checking her heartbeat. Her face was as pale as a sheet, and there was a puddle of blood on the floor.
“What happened?”
Rodney felt like his head was about to explode. He was already in a bad mood, and the deterioration of Sarah’s condition made him even more flustered.
Sarah was so furious that she could not say a word. She simply glared at Rodney.
The nurse at the side said as she trembled. “She was so angry from finding out about the changes in Snow Corporation’s share allocation that she coughed up blood…”
When the nurse saw that Sarah could not speak because she was too furious, she only told half the truth.
Rodney was extremely infuriated. He glared at the nurse and shouted angrily, “Were you the one who told her? You’re only inserting a needle, but why do you have so much nonsense to say? Why are you even a nurse? Why don’t you become a gossiper?”
The nurse flushed, and her eyes reddened. If it were before, she would not have dared to talk back at Rodney. However, she could not resist retorting, ” She humiliated me first. Her blood vessels were too fine, so I didn’t manage to insert the needle the first time. That was when she used her identity to demand our head nurse to come over. Our head nurse is very busy. Not everyone has to revolve around her alone.”
Rodney kicked a chair in front of him, and the pent- up anger in his chest exploded at that moment. ” Your head nurse had time yesterday and the day before yesterday, but she just had to be busy today. Is it because she saw the news that I’m no longer the successor to Snow Corporation? All of you are snobbish people. Even if I’m not the successor, I can crush you down with money. One word and I can make all of you lose your jobs.”
With that, the nurse’s body trembled, not due to fear but anger.
She was only a little over 2o years old and had just graduated. Compared to a job, young people would prioritize their pride more.
Seeing that the situation was going out of hand, the emergency doctor scolded her, “Young Master Snow is correct. Quickly apologize to Miss Neeson and get out.”
The doctor hinted at the nurse with his eyes after speaking.
However, Rodney was relentless. “Make her leave. I don’t want to see her in this hospital anymore.”
“Rodney, this is the hospital, not your home.”
Chester walked into the ward elegantly in a white robe and his hands in his pockets. There was also a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his handsome face. “Every employee of the hospital is under a contract. If you’re accusing them of medical malpractice, firing them would be a matter of course. However, from the perspective of employment and labor laws, it’s unreasonable to have our hospital fire a nurse just because of some verbal arguments.”
Rodney sneered. “Chester, you’re just like the outsiders. You think I’m not qualified to be your friend anymore because I’ve lost the right to inherit Snow Corporation, right?”
Chester frowned and observed Rodney for a while. After not meeting him for some time, the corners of his childhood friend’s eyes were filled with hostility and stubbornness.
It made him disappointed. How did Rodney change from the old him to the current him with this behavior?
The old Rodney would not have simply requested to fire someone because of some trivial matters.
“Rodney, I think you’re mistaken. I just heard the news, so I took some time to come up and visit you.” Chester shrugged his shoulders. “How’s Miss Neeson?” The doctor explained, “She just did a medical examination yesterday, so it’s most likely that her anger got to her. The patient must regulate her emotions, relax, and get enough rest.”
Chester knew everything. Yet, he still walked toward the bed and gazed at Sarah. He said, “Sarah, be more open-minded. Although Rodney has lost Snow Corporation, it also means that the Snow family won’t bother you and Rodney anymore. Both of you have gone through many hardships to finally be together. Rodney and your wishes have already been fulfilled in one way or another. From now on, stay by each other’s side. Even if your legs are crippled, Rodney is a person who takes relationships seriously. He’ll surely take good care of you.”
Sarah did not feel consoled hearing Chester’s words. Instead, she almost coughed out mouthfuls of blood again.
To hell with finally being together. She did not like Rodney at all!
All she wanted was to be the matriarch of the Snow family. That way, all noble and influential people would fight to curry her favor.
