Chapter 297

In the afternoon, at a high–end socialite club, a group

p of Conrad University’s first–year socialites led by Abigail and Leona held a small banquet.

A few second–year socialite seniors were present. Almost half of the socialites about the same age gathered at the banquet.

The topic of the entire banquet had been about Lea

One rich girl started, “Have you heard? The Andrews family’s eldest grandson. Milton, has given it all out and even used his family’s power to find a way to save Lea without Blake’s permission, but Lea rejected it.”

Another girl chimed in. “That’s what I heard”

Everyone exchanged information to confirm that it was true.

“I didn’t expect Mr. Milton Andrews to be so affectionate!”

The girls‘ expressions were filled with admiration and infatuation.

With his top–notch looks, family background, and strength. Milton was the dream guy of the young ladies in Iverton. They did not expect have such an affectionate side. How could they resist? They instantly fell for him.

“Lea must have lost her mind to have rejected Mr. Andrews

“That’s right. Who does she think she is to reject him? I wonder what stroke of luck she got to have won Mr. Andrews’s favor.”

“I wonder how that vixen has channed him”

“What’s so strange about that? She’s someone who even dares to develop gene drugs. What method can she not use

That’s true. Otherwise, how would that death row criminal win Mr. Andrews’s favorf

him to

The girls spoke one after another, but the more they said, the more difficult they found it to accept Jealousy filled the air, and they were about to go crazy from jealousy.

What they dreamed of, no matter how hard they worked, was something they could never achieve in their lives. However, Lea, the death row criminal they despised didn’t give it a shit and abandoned it like trash.

“Girls, you don’t need to spread such rumors. Abigail could not stand it anymore and said with a cold face, “You might not know much about the real aristocratic families. Any dishonorable person or thing is unaccepted, let alone a death row criminal.

“So. Mr. Andrews will not care about a death row criminal

“It’s even more impossible for the Andrews family to accept a death row criminal”

Everyone turned to look at Abigail. They were in awe of her background and naturally believed her.

Someone backed Abigail up. I don’t think it’s possible either. What Abigail said is true,”

After all, when it came to true aristocratic families, everyone present was for inferior to the Erickson family, and the Erickson family was close to the Andrews family.

Moreover, only Abigail’s information was the most reliable.

Another girl agreed. “That’s right. That’s right. Not to mention the Andrews family, even ordinary families would avoid a monster

“Yeah, there must be a mistake.”

*How could such a huge piece of news spread? It must be a rumor”

“How shameless Leah. She’s about to be executed but still tarnished Mr. Andrews’s reputation.

“Spraking of which, when is she going to be executed! I want to see it so badly.”

“Yeah, I can’t wait to see someone like her get executed.

“She must be crying and kneeling to beg for mercy.

“If she knew this would happen, she shouldn’t have done it.”

“Such a big event will spread online. They would see it.

r like Lea”

The discussion went on and on

The girls spoke one after another. The more they continued, the more excited they got. The atmosphere became lively.

As Abigail listened to the discussion, a triumphant smile appeared in her eyes.

Milton had done and sacrificed far more for Lea than these people knew, but Lea had turned him down.

Abigail could not accept the fact and wanted to twist the truth. She tried to use these people to spread the news that Milton didn’t have a thing for Lea, the death row criminal.

In the future, that was all that the world knew. The truth would be buried.

Lea’s reputation, beauty, feelings, and highlights would get erased.

That was the purpose of Abigail’s participation in such a banquet.

At dusk, it began to snow. The feather–like snowflakes fluttered. The snow in n the i

Lea

amet the second person who visited her after bei

after being detained, the curly–haired man in his early fifties.

He didn’t like to sit down. Standing tall made him look more imposing.

The man looked down at Lea. “Miss Lea Berry, you chose Conrad Hospital over Milton. It was quite a wise choice. I admire smart people like you very much

He took two steps closer to the table, put his hands on it, and leaned down to look at Lea closely across the table. “Besides, you look so sweet and sensible now. Everyone likes sweet and lovable people.”

His bright eyes had already expressed how much he liked the current Lea, who appeared obedient and sensible

“It’s not a hard choice. After all, Milton is an individual, but Conrad Hospital is different.” Behind Conrad Hospital was the country and society.

Conrad Hospital was to take over her, her team, and Riverview Hospital.

There was no essential difference between the two,

If not for the deep hatred between her and Milion in her previous life, the protection and platform that Milton could provide would be stronger and better.

No one knew this secret.

No one would think too deeply about it that a person, imprisoned for more than forty days and tamed by them, a freshman who was only eighteen. years old, could see the true difference between the two,

“That’s right.” The man admired Lea even more. “A person sentenced to death still has a chance to live. What a rare miracle. Lea, you have to cherish it. You should thank the civilized system of modern society.”

With that, he pushed the file he’d brought toward Lea and handed her the pen

Lea looked at the pen handed to her in midair and did not take it. Instead, she looked at him. The arrogance in her nature appeared in the eyes of the tamed genius again.

Lea said, “There’s only one reason I can live. Your so–called society needs my abilities.

“Heh!” The man couldn’t help but laugh.

Everyone appreciated the proud nature of geniuses. It was precisely this nature that allowed them to create human history.

Lea still didn’t take the pen. She looked down at the file. It was thick, with a dozen pages and dozens of clauses,

“Tell me about your terms to see if I’m satisfied,” she said, looking at his pen before signing.

The man answered, “Miss Berry, you can read for yourself”

Lea snorted, “I told you, I’m alive not because of your kindness, but because you need me.”

The man frowned and slowly analyzed the terms for her. It took him nearly an hour to explain them one by one.

“Lea, you can’t get any more generous terms than this. Sign it,” He handed the pen forward.

Chapter 297

Tying in the chair like a boss, Lea slowly sat up straight. Her gaze swept past the pen and stared into the man’s eyes. Thave another question. What’s your relationship with Conrad Hospital?

The man was stunned momentarily before replying. “I told you the first time we met. I’m a specially hired employee of the institution. I have nothing to do with the Conrad Hospital.

Lea took his pen and stood up slowly. The tip of the pen landed on the paper. Where she was required to sign, she signed

The man bent down and stared at the words she wrote bit by bit, his eyes bursting with urgency.
