0066##Chapter 66

##Time flew by, and the two-day deadline came in the blink of an eye.

Janice took a taxi and came to the entrance of the Hill Manufacturing Company's building calmly. His wife, Emma, whom she had not seen for two days, had been waiting at the door for a long time.

The reunion after a short parting gave them the urge to rush over and hug each other, but it was suppressed by their reasons.

"You've arrived."

"Yeah."

"Let's go upstairs then."

They did not say much as everything was in silence. They could see the longing and expectation of the past two days in each other's eyes.

The two came to the meeting room of the company.

The head of the family, Richard, led the key members of the company and waited early.

Harvard, Jade, Donald, and the others even arranged for many people to block all the exits. As long as Janice dared to come today, they did not plan to let her go.

Janice and Emma entered the meeting room.

Richard looked at Janice lifelessly and asked coldly, "The two-day deadline has passed. Janice, have you completed what you promised me?"

"I've completed it."

"Oh? Where are the people?" Richard looked at the sides. "The investors you brought in and the people from the Kennedy family. Why can't I see any of them?"

Janice glanced at his watch. "It's half-past nine now. We're scheduled to meet at ten. They will arrive soon."

"Hmph! You're still putting on airs here?"

Richard said coldly, "Janice, do you think that I don't know? You went somewhere to fool around for the past two days, and you weren't even thinking about the bet at all. You just leave everything to Emma.

"Emma wrote invitation letters to the top ten companies on the list humbly for you.

"In the end, they were all unsurprisingly rejected.

"Janice, what else can you say now? You hide to enjoy your life and let Emma do things for you. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Janice frowned and asked calmly, "How are you sure that the invitation letters are rejected?"

Right then, Donald smiled and answered, "I sent someone to investigate it. After the ten invitation letters were sent to all the chairmen, they rejected them within three minutes. None of the companies are willing to come. Emma even gave us a firm promise and told us to come early to prepare to participate in the investment conference. Aha. None of the investors came, so how can this conference be held?"

Harvard, Jade, and other members of the company looked at Janice with interest. They hoped to see emotions such as tension, fear, guilt, and embarrassment on her face.

Unfortunately, they were disappointed.

Janice was still calm, and he said with a slight accusation, "Donald, in my opinion, the people you sent to investigate are not reliable. Dismiss them when you go back."

"You!"

Donald was so angry that he wanted to curse him, but he held it in in the end. He sneered and said, "Still putting on airs, even now. Janice, should I say that you're not afraid of danger, or should I say that you're shameless?"

Harvard added, "All right, everyone has seen the situation. Janice didn't complete any of the things he promised. According to the bet, he should divorce Emma immediately and get out of the Hill family. He will never step in the Hill family's house from now on."

Richard nodded. "Janice, if you're still a man, you should take the initiative and go through the divorce procedures yourself. You don't need me to help you, right?"

Janice shook his head slightly.

"I've just said that the scheduled time is at ten. You guys aren't even willing to wait for twenty minutes more?

"Are you that afraid of losing?"

Richard said in contempt, "Lose? How am I going to lose? I just don't want to waste time with you. All right, since you keep insisting, I'll give you another half an hour so that you'll be sincerely convinced and accept your loss. If no one comes at ten o'clock, not only do you have to divorce Emma, but you also have to taste the Hill family's punishment."

"Okay."
