Chapter 229: Barbaric

The last time Lily had interacted with Cole, she could sense his negative vibes. He wasn't happy about seeing her. Everyday he had come to sit with her and looked like a duty. She couldn't break the ice with him, but was it possible that he would be interested in looking after the business? She hoped against hope. 

Hertz left the hospital. He was half willing to call Cole. The way he lost in the court against them, it was simply shameful. And all because his clients never told him the shady details. He decided to leave a simple message to Cole. After that the child could decide what he wanted. Eventually the whole business was about to collapse and he wasn't interested in helping them rebuild the business—not after they conned him.
