Chapter 554

"Oh? Did the sun rise from the west today? The redhead whose shoes my son has been licking has finally decided to

show up?" Geronimo hissed venomously as he studied Renee from head to toe as though he was looking at a

commodity.

Then, he sneered, "Are you really willing to pay any price to save this loser?"

Renee nodded, her eyes determined. "I've never gone against my words."

"Good. At least you still have some conscience."

There was a complicated look in Geronimo's eyes when he looked at Renee, and it was unclear if it was

appreciation or contempt. Then, he said in a vague tone, ’You have quite a devastatingly beautiful face, I must say,

to be able to charm my son to this extent..."

Liam, who was still kneeling on the ground, furrowed his brows when he heard that. "Boss, just ignore me and

leave!" he pleaded emotionally. "I'm my father's favored child! No matter how angry he is, he won't kill me. But if

you fall into his hands, I don't dare to imagine what kind of sick things he'd do to you with how rogue he is!"

Geronimo was known as a philanderer in their circle. In addition to his seven children, he had many illegitimate

children outside and countless affairs!

How could Liam not know about his father's cheating ways? It was natural for him to be concerned about Renee

because of that!

Renee, however, was calm. She even smiled charmingly and said, "Sick things, huh? I've seen a lot of those, so

what's one more?’

She had heard about Geronimo's affairs, but she believed the older man wouldn't make such a pass at her.

"Shut up!"

Geronimo was furious at the conversation he heard between the two, especially his precious son, who he had

spoiled from a young age. Not only was he a lovesick idiot, but he was also stupid enough to think that

Geronimo would be so lustful that he would go after any woman before him?!

"My request is simple. Since that loser son of mine has licked your shoes for so long and almost emptied the

family's coffers and even racked up a sizable debt, you can't possibly expect you wont have to repay. Why don't you

marry him and work for him for the rest of your life to atone for your sins?"

This request came entirely out of expectation and it dumbfounded everyone.

Especially Laura. She glared at Renee and said disdainfully, "Dad, are you crazy? You want a divorced woman to

marry Liam?!"

The Osborne family's eldest daughter, Yvonne, also shook her head and sighed. "Dad, you should think twice. Liam

can fool around with a divorced woman like her, but to really marry her into the family... It'd be a disaster!"

"Yeah! Even if she wasn't divorced, she's an Everheart and Schneider descendant! You know how difficult those

families are! We're no match for the Hunt family, certainly not something we can handle!"

Geronimo ignored the nasty reactions and continued to look at Renee.

"You should take a stand, hmm? You can't enjoy all the benefits and refuse to give anything in return, right?"

Geronimo was not the only one waiting for Renee's answer. Liam also held his breath and watched her closely.

"I..."

Renee, who was initially calm, was now in a panic. She knew very well that she had no feelings for Liam, and they

had only broken up recently.

Whether she agreed or refused, both would be awkward.

"If this can really help relieve your anger, Uncle Geronimo, then I'll happily agree to marry Liam. That one was

originally one of our plans for this year anyway."

Renee eventually agreed to Geronimo's request with the greater good in mind, but the man ended up ridiculing her

after she agreed.

"Hahah! You're delusional!"

Geronimo sneered from the high horse he was on. "What makes you think that the Osbornes would want a low-

quality item that someone else has swept out of their house? My loser son may be a lovesick idiot, but I'm not. Not

to mention, you don't love my son at all! Even if you two really loved each other, I would never allow you to become

my daughter-in-law!

"The Hunts have oppressed us at every turn. If I were to take a woman that the Hunts rejected, my reputation

would be in shambles! Even if you don't have a brain and think with your toes, it's impossible for that to ever

happen!
