Chapter 1252

“Okay, I can help the Summer family this time, but whether it succeeds will depend on you,” Zephyr said.

Harriet was overjoyed. As long as Zephyr was willing to help, the circumstances would change.

“Zephyr, as long as you help the Summer family this time, we will never forget your kindness. The Summer family will cede more benefits to the Scott family in the future merger.”

However, Harriet’s words did not evoke even the slightest joy within Zephyr. No matter how many benefits he received, it was nothing significant.

His joy had completely vanished in the car accident back then.

Riley didn’t expect that Zephyr would take the initiative to meet her.

She met Zephyr in the private room of a private club in Lommore.

Right when Riley stepped into the private room, she heard a buzzing in her ears. Confusion flashed across her face.

Zephyr, sitting in a chair, explained indifferently, “It just destroyed and temporarily disabled all the electronic devices you’re carrying on you. They will be functional once you leave the room. I just don’t want our conversation in this room to be recorded.”

“What? Our conversation can never see the light of day?” Riley asked sarcastically.

Zephyr stared at the woman in front of him. The woman he had once loved with his entire being was glaring at him with hatred burning in her

eyes.

They were only a few steps away from each other, yet it felt like a chasm had opened up between them.

“I already know that it was the Summer family’s fault that you were sent to a psychiatric hospital, but it was already done. You can’t change the past. Now, how about we talk about compensation?” Zephyr offered, making it seem like a business negotiation.

“Compensation?” Riley suddenly burst out laughing. “You’re saying you want to compensate me?”
