He wiped the sweat off his forehead only to find it was just a dream, and the panic in his heart gradually faded. He got to his feet, lit at cigarette, and headed to the balcony for a smoke. Kevin’s questioning flooded Connor’s mind, making him frustrated and troubled.
He felt little remorse, as money could distort one’s mentality, turning a good-hearted person selfish and causing them to lose temperament.
Connor had been engulfed by greed. He was just concerned with making enough money to live a comfortable life, but he was so stingy that he refused to share his money with others..
Connor was plagued by an unspoken fear running out of money and being bankrupt. Who will care for my son? What will happen to my lover?
Honestly, I’m terrified of dying poor and having nothing, so I must get a massive sum of money and save it for retirement. I don’t want to live in poverty anymore.
Since Ellen is pretty, she can get married easily in the future. She will have a wonderful husband to look after her. Furthermore, she is in college now and can support herself. She won’t be starving or short on cash because she has the relocation fund to herself.
For this reason, I will not give Ellen a penny after obtaining the money from the Presgraves. Connor waited until sunrise, and after breakfast, Olivia dressed him in an older suit and said to him as she put it on for him, “Connor, our family is counting on you to speak up. We will be too shy to ask for extra money again, so I hope you try to get more money this time.”
“I can ask for only 15 million, and no more than that. They might reject us,” Connor said.
Olivia’s eyes twinkled as if she had bagged the 15 million. The Presgraves will be generous and straightforward without delays if they are willing to give the money. As long as Connor asks for it. we can receive the money this afternoon!
Olivia was entirely over the moon as she fantasized about the money being given on the spot. She had already planned what she would buy with the 15 million-fashionable and luxurious items.
However, Connor was troubled because, after living a magnificent life for the previous ten years, he now had to kneel and beg for money, and it was making him uncomfortable.
Finally, Connor left the house. He chose not to drive and instead called a cab. Once he got into the cab, he called the chairman of the Presgrave Family, with whom he had been in contact for a long time.
“Hello, Mr. Connor. I was in the middle of something just now. What’s the matter?” Benjamin said on the other end of the line.
“Hi, Mr. Stark. Is it alright if I meet with President Presgrave? I’d like to discuss some things with him.”
“Do you mean our young president?”
“Yes, I would like to meet the Young Master Jared. I heard he’s back and is now working in the Presgrave Group.”
“Yes, He has, in fact, taken over the management firm. Have you got any questions for him?”
“Uh… I’ve recently experienced some troubles. I had an investment failure, and I would like to seek help from President Presgrave,” Connor answered shamelessly.
“I see. Sure. Let me check with President Presgrave, and I’ll get back to you.”
“Okay. Thank you for your time,” Connor responded. He took a deep breath after hanging up the phone. Begging for money was not an easy feat.
If Young Master Jared agrees to help us, I will demand more money so that I do not have to beg again!
After the conversation with Connor, Benjamin immediately dialed Jared’s number, and the call was answered within seconds.
“Hey, Ben.” “President Presgrave, good day. I just received a call from Connor Aguirre. He said he wanted to see you.” ‘Connor?”
“Yes, he was your donor’s legal guardian. He appears to be in financial difficulty and is likely hoping for your assistance. Would you like to see him, President Presgrave? Otherwise, would you like me to let him in?”
Jared had no idea who was Connor. However, Jared grew intrigued and wanted to learn what kind of family background his donor came from.
“Please make arrangements for me to meet him, Jared said. “Okay. Can I schedule the meeting for half-past ten?”
“Yeah.” Following that, Benjamin called Connor back to inform him of Young Master Jared’s decision. Connor was relieved when he learned that Young Master Jared wanted to meet with him. He could also sense by Benjamin’s tone that Young Master Jared was excited to see him.
Perhaps Young Master Jared is feeling thankful for his donor? Connor was confident that he could get Jared to send him some money
As Benjamin had requested, Connor arrived to wait in the coffee shop across the street from the office. Connor was thinking about how to make Kevin’s life experience sound more authentic.
Jared emerged from the underground parking garage and parked his sports car outside the coffee shop. Benjamin had arrived at the coffee shop. “President Presgrave, you’re here,” Benjamin said, taking a step forward. “Where is Connor?”
“Mr. Connor is in Private Room No.3 in the café. Do you need my company?”
“No. Please wait outside. I’ll come to you if I need to,” Jared stated. Benjamin nodded and walked Jared to the private room. He then ordered a cup of coffee and waited outside.
Connor quickly calmed himself when Jared knocked on the door. He had been waiting nervously for Jared to enter. He was fascinated at the sight of Jared as the door opened. Young Master Jared is a fine- looking man!
“Hello, Young Master Jared. Nice to meet you. My name is Connor Aguirre,” Connor introduced himself. “Hello, Jared greeted formally.
Connor was thrilled, so he made sure the waiter poured some water for Jared. After sitting down, he asked politely, “Are you busy, Young Master Jared? I hope I am not disturbing you.”
“Not at all! You must be Selena’s father, am I right?” Jared asked. Selena indeed resembled her father.
“Yes, Selena is my daughter,” Connor answered. He didn’t care much for his daughter, so he was unaware Selena had left an indelible impression on Jared negatively.
“Okay, I see. Why do you wish to see me?” Jared asked indifferently as he stared at Connor.
When Connor saw that Jared had finally inquired about his intentions, he couldn’t help but rub his hands under the table. He plucked up his courage and explained, “Well, I owe a lot of money after years of failed investments, Young Master Jared; I’d like to ask you for another sum of money as a reward fee, so that I may get through my financial challenges.”
Connor was acting shamelessly. “How much do you want?” Jared inquired, his brow furrowed slightly. “I’m hoping to get 15 million from you, Young Master Jared.” Connor lifted his index finger.
After hearing Connor’s words, Jared understood that his parents had given him 15 million as remuneration. Sixteen years later, Connor was now asking the same.
“What’s your relationship with the donor?” Jared was determined to understand the entire situation. He wondered if it was worth it to pay him another 15 million.
Connor suddenly thought of his wife’s prediction. Young Master Jared is really asking about my relationship with Kevin! “The donor of your heart is my illegitimate son, sir. The heart you have right now is my son’s,” Connor said hastily.
“I couldn’t make a life-or-death decision at the time, but I heard you were also in danger and urgently needed a heart donor. I reasoned that I would save you since my son was untreatable. Even though his body was not intact when buried, I believe I made the correct decision in saving you,” Connor continued solemnly.
Connor wiped away his tears as he finished speaking. I have frequent dreams about my son until this day. He asks me why I treat him this way, and all I can say is that he should rest in peace. He should leave everything behind in this world and live blissfully in another.”
Jared’s forehead creased in sympathy at Connor’s words. “Please accept my heartfelt condolences!” Jared consoled. “Although my son has passed away, he at least allowed you to grow up healthy. It’s worth it, and I’m very pleased,” Connor said with a guilty tone and his gaze set on the ground, leaving Jared at loss.
was able to survive because of your decision. at that time. I haven’t personally thanked you yet, Jared said.
“No, no. It is my honor to save your life. Your position is respectable, and you make an important contribution to society. It’s the wisest decision I’ve ever made,” Connor flattered.
Jared realized his heart donor was Connor’s biological son. No wonder my parents have been there for him in every manner over the past ten years.
“May I know what your son’s name is?” I should pay my respects to my donor one day.
