Chapter 108

As the week went by, Renee quickly adapted to her new single life. Although work kept her busy during

the day, her nights would be filled with amusement and fun. Indeed, she was thoroughly enjoying her

new-found freedom.

Just today, she finally signed a new contract with South Group for the next financial period.

Jerome South readily agreed to Renee’s request to invest 500 million in Azure Group as a research

and development fund. However, Azure Group had to guarantee a profit that exceeded 8 billion in the

first year, or they would have to hand South Group 30% of their company’s equity as compensation, in

accordance with the contract.

The terms quickly drew Liam’s ire.

“Jerome South is one cunning fox. After all that help from him, I thought he would have shown a

modicum of sincerity for the sake of his late daughter. Instead, this contract is full of traps. I can see

what he’s up to!”

Liam looked at Rence in confusion. If he could, he wanted to ruin the contract. “Boss, this is such a

humiliating contract. Why did you sign it? It’s only worth 500 million. Can’t we afford that? Isn’t he

looking down on us?”

Unlike Liam, Rence seemed pleased. “If we lose, we lose thirty percent of our equity. If we win, we’ll

get South Group to invest in us for five consecutive years, no less than 1.5 billion annually. I think that’s

fair and sincere.”

“Sincere?! Azure Group is still a business in its infancy. The company has no products under its name

yet. Do you know ridiculous it is to make 8 billion annual profit in the tech industry?”

Liam held his forehead, looking worried. “The top three technology companies in the world average

about 15 billion profit annually. It’s already a blessing that a startup like ours earns 800 million a year.

How are we supposed to win? Won’t we be giving up thirty percent equity to South Group for nothing?”

Rence raised her eyebrows slightly, still smiling confidently. “Have I ever lost a bet?”

Such confidence might appear arrogant or conceited to others, but it seemed just right for Renee. Her

dazzling charisma and confidence enchanted Liam so much that he could not take his eyes off her.

“Right. You’re my boss. All the big players want you to serve them and are still finding for you. You’ve

kept a low profile for years, and I’ve almost forgotten your identity. You’ll never lose!”

Liam was a long-time fan of Renee’s and admired her a lot. However, he quickly added,

Except for your marriage with Stefan, of course.”

Renee was irked. Liam was so annoying. Why did he bring that up again?

Although annoying, Liam was right. All her life, Renee had never lost until Stefan came, which was

unpleasant and unforgettable!

“Anyway, our successful cooperation with South Group would be a huge blow to H Group. Mr. Iceberg

is probably fuming…”

Liam could not hide his glee as he looked forward to Stefan’s reaction. “I wonder how he’ll react when

he finds out his hated ex-wife is the actual person behind Azure Group. Haha… He’ll probably

explode!”

At the same time, the atmosphere in the president’s office in the H Group was anxious and

tense.

Elijah stared at the thick pile of documents next to Stefan and shook in trepidation. “Mr. Hunt, we never

expected Mrs. Hunt to do this… she’s usually so kind… It’s so… shocking!”
