Seeing her cautious demeanor, Hugh felt an inexplicable frustration. Was she still afraid of him after all the times he'd helped her? His voice dropped a notch. "Your newly acquired Amber Group perfectly fits this funding project. You should give it a shot." "Wouldn't that be pulling strings?" Serena asked in a low voice.

But Serena understood how crucial timing was.

"I'd like to try, but I need to review the group's operations first. Can you givestime?" "Fair competition. As long as it's before the deadline, do as you please," Hugh answered nonchalantly.

"Pay up as soon as possible. If I have to wait any longer, I'll start charging interest." "Are you a loan shark?" Rachel replied instantly.

How the hell am I supposed to pull that together overnight? Can't you givemore time?" Serena leaned back lazily, her fingers tracing the rim of her coffee cup.
She countered, "Did Bryan givetime?"
Rachel thought of the car accident and was left speechless, Bryan Was just an idiot who always caused trouble. She had no choice but to coax Serena, trying to buy more time. She couldn't let Howard find out about this.
In the corner, Sarah pressed her back against the wall. Her heart was facing as she listened to their conversation. She thought, "No wonder Mom gave Serena my bag that day. It's because she owes Serena six million dollars."
