CHAPTER 706: CHAPTER 706: THE FIRST NEGOTIATION

"Your parents can fight against the main branch, can’t you? As their daughter, aren’t you going to do something?"

This time, Hannah Sinclair didn’t even bother to glance at him, and stated matter-of-factly, "There’s nothing to do. My parents plotted to harm the people of the main branch; Jasper Sinclair sparing my life is already his magnanimity."

"Is it really his magnanimity, or your grandmother’s intervention that stopped him? You should know better than I do."

"No matter what, being able to stay here unharmed is already a great favor from the Sinclair Family. One must learn to be content."

After the initial negotiation failed, Jenson Sinclair left The Orion Villa defeated.

The person staying at a distance looked at the heavily closed door.

Her gaze was cold, with a hint of mockery in the depths, as if feeling that the second branch was overestimating their capabilities.

The air was silent for a long time before Hannah Sinclair slowly moved, thinking that she hadn’t visited her parents in prison for a long time, and it was about time to go.

The Sinclair Residence.

Jenson Sinclair roughly recounted the negotiation process to his mother.

Lynn Woodward expressed surprise at their inaction, and beyond surprise, she was sarcastic: "How could the third branch produce such a coward! Truly useless!"

The words she uttered grew more unpleasant with each word.

"Why rush? She just hasn’t figured things out yet."

"Remember to bribe the prison guards; you must win Hannah Sinclair over."

"Got it."

...

In a few days, Jasper Sinclair recovered from a serious illness.

A cold and upright man had visibly lost weight after this ordeal.

Nora Northwood experimented with recipes online and even hired a nutritionist to their home.

Jasper Sinclair not only didn’t think she was making a fuss but found it very enjoyable.

"Nora, thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

Despite these words, the help from Nora did not amount to much, merely keeping an eye on him at all times.

"What if you collapse? Who will back me up then?"

"Rest assured, that day will never come."

At this point, Nora suddenly became interested, slumped into the sofa, resting one cheek on her palm, and asked him, "How can you be so sure?"

"You seem very eager for me to lose power."

"How can that be? If you lose power, who will fund my expenses?"

Jasper Sinclair smiled without answering, pulling a bank card from his wallet and handing it to her.

Nora was momentarily stunned, but accepted it generously, not forgetting to add some emotional value, curving her red lips, and said, "Boss Sinclair is truly generous."

"Free this afternoon, want to go for a stroll together?"

"Shopping isn’t really suitable for you men. You stay home and recuperate; I’ve arranged to go with Lily."

"Seems like it was planned all along, intending to leave me at home like a fool."

"What are you talking about?" Nora’s voice inherently had a girlish tone, and now, deliberately coquettish, she sounded exceptionally soft.

So, that afternoon, she indeed left Jasper Sinclair alone at home, while she and Lily Sloan went to RAILIN.

RAILIN is a newly built mall located in Fenwick District, a new place for wealthy women to pass the time.

Of course, Nora’s main purpose was not simply to shop.

She wanted to evaluate RAILIN’s standards for the potential entry of VK stores.

Now, VK, which she founded single-handedly, was already well-known, but it still lacked a touch of flair.

Nora contemplated for a long time, feeling it was time to expand her territory.
