Chapter 652: Trouble for Jason and Courtney?

Leo squinted his eyes, amazed that his most well-behaved son had been causing such turmoil behind his back. He had even ventured into the black market, exploiting his own power!

Truly, Leo had underestimated this problematic offspring. With a swift kick to Boris's chin, Leo nearly shattered his jawbone.

"You beast, shut your mouth! You're useless!" Boris was in so much pain he couldn't speak.

Disinterested in further engagement, Leo settled back into his chair.

"Jared, come in." Jared entered, his gaze coolly sweeping over the vermin on the floor. "Leo."

"This time, it's my fault for not supervising properly. I'll take responsibility for all the losses the Reed family has suffered. Go back and tell Tina not to worry about the biotech issue; I'll investigate it quietly. The Five Poisons are out of sight for now; we can only wait."

Jared agreed, "Alright, I understand."

Leo exhaled deeply and pulled out a contract.

"This should compensate Tina and the Reed family for their losses, which will be calculated separately." Jared looked at the document-it was an international business contract that could net thirty billion dollars in just one year. Without hesitation, he accepted the contract, knowing it would certainly appease Tina, the little miser.

"Leo, I'll be off then." Jared chuckled; dealing with Boris required no effort from him. Boris, still reeling from Leo's rebuke, and Grace, taken away for interrogation, indicated some peace for the time being.

Cole, holding the contract, couldn't hide his elation. Thirty billion dollars-that was equivalent to three years of his salary! Now, he could surely request a bonus from Serena.

Jared watched Cole's greedy expression and shook his head. No wonder he resembled Tina so closely, and Hayden's penny-pinching ways were clearly a tradition of Serenity Ridge.

"Achoo!" Hayden, just waking up, nearly tore a wound with his sneeze.

Paula quickly restrained him.

"Didn't I tell you to avoid sudden movements? Do you have any idea how many injuries you have?" Paula had been by his side in the hospital, sleepless, her eyes nearly swollen from crying by the time Hayden woke up.

"I'm fine, it must be Jared cursing me behind my back, or else I wouldn't have sneezed!" Hayden, propped against the headboard and bandaged all over, could only move his eyes.

"Paula, you didn't tell my family, did you?"

Paula shook her head.
