After weighing his options, he decided this deal was indeed a good one, with no downside for him.
"Fine. Since you''re sincere about doing business, I''ll do business with you. I can give you what you want, but only after this is all over."
After much consideration, Lionel agreed to Cherry''s proposal.
"This is our first time working together, so I can''t be sure you''re not trying to trick me."
Hearing that Lionel had agreed, Cherry nodded in satisfaction.
“Of course. As long as you deliver the resources afterward, our deal is a sess. And in the future, I''ll keep bringing you valuable information."
With the deal settled, Cherry left the Rosenberg estate, happily humming a tune.
The moment she got in her car, she called Hannah.
Cherry recounted her entire conversation with Lionel, word for word, leaving nothing out.
Hannah had the phone on speaker, so Samuel heard everything too.
"I knew you were up to something. You were thinking about getting resources the whole time. Your parents are lucky to have you," Samuel remarked.
While most people saw Cherry as a carefree, gossip-loving socialite who only cared about having fun, she was actually quite concerned about her family''s business. She might not have any business acumen herself, but she found her own ways to help secure resources for them.
In her parents'' eyes, she was a wonderful daughter, which was why they doted on her so much.
"Just leave it to me. I''ll handle everything perfectly. I have a real talent for this sort of thing!"
"I trust you to handle it," Hannah said. "Now we just wait for the good news." Suddenly, Samuel thought of something. "Wait, did you tell him about the bug?" "Don''t worry, I did. I gave it to him before I left. All we have to do now is listen."
His words brought a collective sigh of relief.
When they had reviewed the security footage, the courier had beenpletely covered up, riding a vehicle with no license te. He had even deliberately avoided cameras on his way out, making it impossible to identify him.
His bizarre behavior suggested he wasn''t a professional courier but one of the people who sent the letter.
But now, it didn''t matter. Since Lionel was the one going, even
their problem.

If he ended up crippled, that was fine, as long as Hannah was safe.
Besides, if something actually
happens to Lionel, wouldn''t that be a
good thing? It''d be like someone`
else doing the dirty work for
them why not l?t it happen?
So, in the end, they had Cherry to thank for this brilliant idea. Without her, they
never would have thought of it.
Night fell, and a cool evening breeze rustled through the trees.
As nned, Lionel set out for the designated location at six o''clock.
