Jeremy reminisced about the day when he went to Catherine to propose his deal.

“Ms. Turner, you only have one last chance right now.”

Jeremy was comfortably sitting on the sofa, his finger interlocked.

He looked at Catherine and calmly said, “If you hand over the Turner Group’s shares, I will help your husband recover.” Catherine glared at Jeremy.

Hate made her eyes red.

She didn’t hesitate at all and rejected him on the spot.

“No! If you think you’ll get your hands on the shares of the Turner Group, then you’re dreaming!”

At that time she had been running around to find a way to cure his husband’s illness. The exhaustion had taken a toll on her. She was extremely haggard.

The elegance and nobility she once had as an upper-class lady had been long lost.

Jeremy took pleasure in seeing Catherine’s distress. His smile grew wider and crueler.

“Do you really think you still have any options left?” He taunted.

Unwillingness was obvious on Catherine’s face.

She clenched her fists tightly and bit her lower lip but said nothing, only stared at Jeremy.

If her daughter hadn’t died, perhaps she would still have the privilege to make a choice.

But now, she was left with no choice. There were only two paths in front of her. And both were dead- ends.

If she refused Jeremy’s offer and let Luke suffer, she would still have to give up the Turner Group if Luke died. She could end up watching the Turner Group get taken and divided among the Turner family members and other shareholders. She would have no share in it. Or she could agree to Jeremy’s demands, hand over the shares of the Turner Group, and save Luke’s life. And regardless of who owned the Group, she would have Luke to rely on.

Once he had recovered, she wouldn’t have to live a difficult life from that day forward.
