Amanda laughed, amused by Gerben’s 180-degree change in attitude.

Gerben laughed along, but he thought in his heart, ‘Offend anyone except a woman. They are ruthless and show no mercy.’

In the hospital…

Stanford was utterly awake the following afternoon.

Atwood was by his side the whole time.

However, he looked around as soon as he woke up. He was upset not seeing Amanda here, “Didn’t she come?”

Atwood froze for a moment but soon realized who he was referring to.

“She hasn’t been here.”

Stanford sat up, looked outside the window and said faintly, “Help me get discharged from the hospital.”

Atwood hesitated and said, “Before you leave the hospital, you’d better read this news.”

Stanford looked at him, probably knowing what he was talking about. He took his phone and saw that it was the news of his stay at the hotel.

The headline read, “J&Y Group Boss Having Threesome at The Hotel”, with a picture of two unclothed women in the room.

Just the headline was already highly suggestive.

The article’s description even made people think of an erotic bed scene just by reading the text.

Many of the comments said that “Never judge a book by its cover.”

Stanford’s previous image was a tall, upright, and aloof ascetic man, but this news had pulled him down.

This was not a big deal. The main thing was that Stanford’s news had caused the company’s stock to fluctuate and had a tendency to fall.

Stanford was expressionless. ‘Perhaps this was her purpose.’

“I received a call from Ms. Flores today. She said that there is still a final amount of money needed to be invested in the acquisition.” Atwood looked at him, “We’ve lost too much this time.”

Stanford lifted the blanket and got up. He was not sad about the loss of his money and said, “I owe her that.”

Atwood opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found that nothing could be persuaded.

“How’s the matter I asked you to look into?” He stared blankly into the distance outside the window.
