Chapter 1240

Renee frowned. "Quinton, the Baldwin family is powerful, and Haze is a very cunning man. If we cooperate with

them, well definitely suffer a great loss."

"How could you say that?" Quinton turned to Justin appreciatively. "Maybe you don't know this, but though the

Baldwin family invests eighty percent, they only take twenty percent of the profit and let us have the remaining

eighty percent. No one else would be willing to do that, so of course it's not a loss for us!"

"Umm..." Renee's confidence dwindled, and she couldn't help but whisper to Haze, "Did you really spend that

much?"

Haze grinned and whispered back, "Of course! My family's willing to go that far as long as you marry me."

Renee was speechless. She looked around, unsure of what to do. It was already hard enough to ask Quinton to

cooperate with Stefan, but now the Baldwin family had appeared and promised them a great profit.

Her dream of the Everhearts cooperating with the Hunts seemed impossible at this point.

After dwelling on it for a long time, she forced herself to compromise. "Fine, we can cooperate with the Baldwin

family. But Quinton, you should reconcile with Stefan and let bygones be bygones. I'm not asking for much. Even if

we can't cooperate with the Hunt family, we should at least not

fight against them. It's what our family would have wanted- we can't be enemies with the Hunts!"

However, Quinton refused to back down. "If Dad and Mom knew what Stefan did to me, they would put that aside.

Grandpa was a general, so of course he wouldn't want to see his descendants be bullied by others. Not only was my

face ruined, the Everheart family’s dignity was destroyed too. If they were still alive, do you think they would let me

suffer in silence?"

"Agreed!" Haze eagerly added fuel to the fire. "Both the Everheart and Baldwin families are the descendants of

generals, so we're bound by moral integrity. We're not as coward ly as the Hunt family who went into business

instead of war. They're cunning people, and if you go easy on them, they'll definitely turn on you in the future."

"Shut up, Haze!" Renee turned around and glared at Haze fiercely. "You know nothing, so stop trying to sow discord

here. Do you know what my brother experienced? Do you know how painful it is for him to be so full of hatred? You

only want us to fight against the Hunt family so you can take advantage of it, don't you?"

"Umm... I'll shut up and let you guys talk." Haze hunched in a corner weakly. As an outsider, he felt that there was

an undercurrent surging between the siblings. A storm was coming, so it was only wise that he retreat before it hit.

"I don't care what you think—it's impossible for me to reconcile with Stefan. If making you pick sides puts you in a

dilemma, I'll be considerate. I'll cut off my relationship with you and assume that we had never been reunited with

each other. From then on, well have nothing to do with each other!" Quinton refused to compromise. He had faced

too many hardships and lost too much, so he could not afford to be soft-hearted at such a critical moment.
