NovelEnglishChapter 1262 Hera’s tone was chilling, her demeanor icy. It made Eugene feel as if he had been encased in ice.
“Sorry... 'm sorry...” Eugene’s head felt like it was about to explode. He could not think of anything else to say other than an apology.
“That's it? You're sorry? That fire cost my company three million! The food poisoning, six million! How are we going to settle this account?” Hera’s gaze was so cold it could almost freeze.

Hera sat on the chair, her cold eyes continuing to stare at the sweating Eugene. “I want ten times the compensation. That's no problem, right? “ “N-No problem!” Eugene nodded like a pecking chicken. Ten times the compensation was only 90 million. He and his father had saved up nearly 200 million over the years. They could afford it.
Hera’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. “Seeing you agree so easily, it seems that 90 million is not enough to make you feel the pinch. Let's make it a hundred times the compensation, then. | want nine billion!” “No, no, no... It’s very much a pinch. Our savings only amount to about 200 million. We really can’t cup with nine billion!” Eugene was almost crying at this point.
Hera demanded nine billion just because he had agreed too quickly. If he had deliberated, who knew if she would have taken his legs instead? Clearly, she had the power to just rob him of anything and everything.
Hera’s mouth twitched slightly. “So that means you refuse right?” “Ms. Lewis, we can’t cup with nine billion!” Eugene was practically crying now, minus the tears. Olivia was a hundred times more terrifying than the devil.
Eva handed her own phone to Hera, speaking respectfully, “Ms. Lewis, the number of the major shareholder of Hondur Pharmaceuticals headquarters in Sagen.” After days of cooperation, the two of them worked together seamlessly. Hera was increasingly impressed by Eva's ability to get things done. She accepted the phone and dialed the number.
Eugene closed his eyes, awaiting judgment. The call connected. A voice, aged and weathered, Chapter 1262 cfrom the other end, “Who is this?" 2/2 Hera said gently, “This is Hera Lewis, chairwoman of Southern Heavens Pharmaceuticals in Jonford,” There was a crash. It sounded as if a teacup had fallen on the other end. There was silence for a few seconds before the aged voice asked, “Ms. Lewis, what can | do for you?” “I wouldn't dare to instruct you. However, your branch in Xanthalos has been going to extremes recently to suppress my company. There have been incidents of arson and poisoning, causing us heavy losses,” Hera said with heartfelt regret.
“How much are you asking for?” Edward Hicks was no fool. He knew Hera was demanding compensation. As the spokesperson for a second-rate family, he was well aware that Hera would demand a lion's share. Otherwise, she would not have called him herself.
“Nine billion!” Hera replied coldly.

If you insist on taking things too far, | wouldn't mind making a personal visit to Jonford myself.” “Are you threatening me, Mr. Hicks?” Hera narrowed her eyes.

After saying that, she hung up the phone without giving the other Rat a chance to respon fmédiately aReFwan, she dialed another number on her phone. The call was answered almost instantly. Santiago Senior was pleasantly surprised and somewhat flattered. “Oh, my precious granddaughter is callingof her own accord?” Hera sobbed. “Grandpa, someone from Sagen threatened me!” Eugene's expression darkened. Grandpa? Her grandfather was in Sagen? Who was her grandfather? Santiago suddenly becfurious. “Who dares bully my precious granddaughter?” Hera choked up. “Edward Hicks! He threatened to bring people over to kill me!” Just like that, the call ended. Even through the phone, everyone could feel the old man’s rage.
