Although Fiona did not know much about running apany and did not know about market worth, she knew that Wendy should not have spoken up for Ethan at that moment.


    "Wendy, my phone''s been having problems recently. Come to my room with me and help me take a look at it." She put down her knife and fork and pulled Wendy inside.


    Without Wendy, who was dumb enough to help outsiders, Harold did not try to hide anything. He asked directly, "Your uncle probably doesn''t know about the Jennings Corporation''s situation yet, right?"


    "Yeah." Ethan nodded, smiling.


    Harold''s eyes were gleaming, as if he could see right through him. "So, what do you want?"


    "Mr. Jennings, you were against me and Wendy back then, and you said that it was because I wasn''t worthy of her. I think that I''m now capable enough to be with Wendy and help her to manage and run thispany."


    Ethan paused and added, "As long as you agree to me and Wendy dating, I can hide it from my uncle and tell him to buy 10% of the shares in Jennings Corporation with 100 million dors."


    "Is that your only request?" Harold narrowed his eyes slightly.


    Ethan looked perfectly sincere as he said, "Mr. Jennings, I didn''te back to the country and join Jennings Corporation for the money. I did it because I genuinely like Wendy and want to be with her."


    "So, you approached Wendy on purpose and caused trouble in her rtionship with Zachary?" Harold scoffed. There was a disdainful look in his eyes. "Don''t bother with that hypocritical demeanor of yours. I''m not as dumb as Wendy is. I know very well what you''re thinking!"


    "Mr. Jennings, you''ve misunderstood. I" Ethan tried to protest.


    However, Harold could not be bothered to listen. He retorted with a statement that left Ethan speechless. "Don''t exin. If you really did like Wendy, you wouldn''t have taken the one million dors I gave you back then and left the country." Ethan looked rather awkward. He could not say anything about that.


    "Don''t worry! Wendy doesn''t know about that, and if you really are capable, I wouldn''t mind the two of you being together. However, one''s capability isn''t based on what they say, but instead on what they do. You''re a smart man. You should know what I mean."


    Since Harold had made himself so clear, Ethan did know what he meant.


    He nodded and said, "Don''t worry, Mr. Jennings. I know what to do. When you''ve prepared the contract for transferring 10% of the shares for 100 million dors, I''ll deliver it to my uncle at once."


    "I''ll draft the contract by Monday. If there isn''t anything else, go call Fiona and Wendy out so that we can eat."


    They had finished all the necessary discussions, so Harold did not say anything else.


    After they had eaten, Wendy went with Ethan to send him off.


    Ethan smiled happily the entire time. "Wendy, I discussed our rtionship with Mr. Jennings just now, and he isn''t against our rtionship."


    When Wendy heard this, a strange look shed in her eyes.


    She asserted softly, but did not react much.


    Ethan frowned, but he didn''t think much of it.


    After all, two steps of his n had beenpleted.


    As long as nothing unexpected happened, Jennings Corporation would be his sooner orter.


    ...


    In the blink of an eye, it was Monday.


    Ethan took the contract for 10% of the shares in Jennings Corporation over to Celesea City while Wendy drove to the courthouse.


    When she reached the entrance, she saw Zachary getting out of a cab.


    The two of them did not talk as they entered the courthouse one after the other.


    As it was morning, there weren''t many people who were at the courthouse for divorce.


    The two of them finished signing the papers very quickly and submitted their application to file for divorce.


    They would now have to wait 30 days as the divorce cooling off period.


    They would receive their divorce certificate 30 dayster.


    After leaving the courthouse, Zachary did not even look back as


    he


    get ready to g down a cab to


    go to work at Yel Corporation.


    today! You''ll onlyst a year at most!" Wendy cried out in a cold voice as she ran after him before getting into her car and leaving.


    "Zachary, you''ll regret your


    "Regret it? Zacharyughed and murmured, "Oh, Wendy. The thing that I regret the most in my life is going to Yel Corporation five years ago to meet you!"  fo


    Before leaving that morning, he had gotten a call from Anya.


    Anya had told him that Harold was selling 10% of the shares in Jennings Corporation to Dalton.


    Zachary had all the information on both Ethan and Dalton.


    He had not used the information against Ethan because he wanted to use him to implement his n.


    They werepletely unaware of the danger thaty ahead.


    The person who got the ultimate benefits would never be Ethan, nor would it be Dalton.


    The had been cast, and what Zachary needed to do was to wait for the right moment to pull it in.
