Chapter 51 – A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

Posted on May 18, 2024 by admin

Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

“Give it to me!”

Jerome South grabbed the brown paper bag and pulled out the documents inside, his fingers trembling slightly due to excitement.

It was a freshly-issued winning verdict for an appeal.

Except for Flossie, no one there knew how significant this verdict was to Jerome South.

After a long time, Jerome South finally turned his gaze away from the verdict.

He looked at Flossie. His shrewd eyes had a hint of barely noticeable wetness in them. He said, Come with me!”

And so, as everyone watched on in disbelief, Flossie successfully obtained the opportunity to meet with Jerome South, the chairman of South Group, alone.

In the high-end luxury box, Jerome South was very emotional.

“The appeal is successful. Finally, the appeal is successful. Five years… I’ve waited way too long for this moment!”

He repeatedly read the contents of the verdict. Even now, he could still hardly believe it.

Jerome South’s reaction reminded Flossie of her late father. She sighed. “Justice is always present. I believe Miss Chase can definitely feel your fatherly love in heaven.”

“Jerome South suddenly stared at Flossie with vigilance and asked, “How did you know about this? And how did you manage to reopen a case that was already finalized?”

“Because I admire you and wish to become your most trusted partner, I spent some time trying to get to know you…”

Flossie’s expression was calm as she said without any hesitation, “Everyone knows Jerome South has a beloved daughter called Jane South, but very few people know that… in a remote northern city, you have another daughter called Nancy Chase.”

“Miss Chase was two years older than Miss South. She was more outstanding than Miss South in appearance, conduct, and talent. However, as an illegitimate daughter, her destiny was very different from Miss South’s…”

Listening to Flossie’s words, Jerome South was lost in memories. His stern face now contained a bit of softness and a bit of sadness too.

“Yes, Nancy was much more outstanding than Jane,. She’s a lot more mature too. If it weren’t because she was so considerate and was afraid it might affect me, she wouldn’t have…”

Jerome South could not go on anymore. He had a very painful expression on his face.

Flossie silently looked at the man without saying anything.

No matter how unfairly Jerome South had treated his two daughters in the past, at least his regret now was real. His mourning was real too.

This was the heaviest love in the world the love of a father for his dead daughter!

Jerome South took a deep breath to calm himself down. He put the verdict back into the paper bag and put it away carefully.

“To get a judge to revise a wrongful verdict from five years ago, it must have taken a lot of effort. It’s a bit late, but my daughter’s name is finally cleared…”

Jerome South looked at Flossie with appreciation and gratitude in his eyes. He went straight to you want?” the point. “Your gift has gone straight to my heart. Tell me honestly… what do

Flossie smiled and took out the contract she had prepared along with a pen, then handed them to Jerome South. “Mr. South, I told you I hope I can become your most trusted business partner. I also hope that in the next five years, South Group can become our Azure Group’s largest investor and distributor.”

“Your largest investor and distributor in the next five years?”

Jerome South was momentarily stunned. Then, he smiled and said, “Young woman, you have a tiny body but such a big appetite. In the entire Beach City, does anyone except for H Group have the right to say something like that?”

“In five years, Azure Group will be more qualified than H Group to say that,” declared Flossie.

“Oh, really?”

Jerome South lifted his eyebrows slightly.

Those were arrogant words, but spoken by the young woman, it did not feel conceited.

“You’re Halston’s wife, yet you’re speaking for Azure Group. This is rather interesting.”

Flossie decided to press the issue while she had the momentum. “So, what do you think, Mr. South? Would you take the gamble and cooperate with Azure Group?” Suddenly, a girl’s voice rose outside. “Get out of the way! Let me in!”

The next second, a beautiful and boisterous figure burst in.

“Daddy, I heard a slut is trying to seduce you, so I came to see what the shameless woman looks like!”

Jane South was wearing black high heel boots and carrying a limited edition bag. She was shouting and making a scene like a typical spoiled rich girl.

She instantly saw Flossie sitting across from Jerome South. Surprise crept into her willful face.

“It’s actually you…. the woman that Halston has hated for four years but is still shamelessly clinging onto him!” said Jane South through clenched teeth. She looked at Flossie with contempt and jealousy. Her attitude was full of hostility.

Flossie’s smiled faintly and extended her hand to Jane, unperturbed. “Hello, Miss South. I’m honored that you still remember me.”

She had met Jane before. She knew Jane was Halston’s number one fan. Because Jerome doted on Jane, Jane had grown up spoiled and willful.

Generally speaking, Flossie had always tried to stay as far away as possible from that kind of person.

But this time, it seemed like the encounter was impossible to avoid.

Jane showed no consideration for Rence’s feelings. She yelled, “You shameless woman! How dare you try to seduce my father behind Halston’s back? I’ll call Halston and tell him all about it!”

“Jane, stop this nonsense!”

Jerome frowned. He glared at his precious daughter sternly, which was something that he rarely did. “Miss Ellsworth is here to talk business. Go wait for me outside!”

“She’s a housewife! She doesn’t know anything about business. Did you fall for her seduction? How could you do this? Mommy’s watching in heaven!”

Jane South stomped her feet and started sobbing and shouting, “I knew you didn’t love Mommy! You don’t love me either! I don’t want to be your daughter anymore!”

“Jane, there you go again…”

Jerome sighed helplessly.

The more unreasonable Jane South was, the more Jerome South missed his deceased eldest daughter, Nancy Chase, and the more he felt guilty about Nancy.

Jerome felt embarrassed and told Flossie, “Miss Ellsworth, I’ll consider your proposal for the cooperation between South Group and Azure Group carefully. If you don’t mind, can you give us a bit of space?”

“Okay, Mr. South. I’ll await your good news.”

Flossie nodded and withdrew from the box without hesitation.

Before she left, she cast a sympathetic look at Jerome.

At the same time, from the bottom of her heart, she felt a deep pity for Nancy Chase’s unjust death.

That foolish woman sacrificed her own life and reputation to save the reputation of the South family, but Jane, a terrible human being, became the biggest beneficiary. What a pity!

Flossie did not leave Floating Cloud Villa. Instead, she waited in a coffee shop outside the private box.

As long as Jerome South had not signed the contract, things could still change, so she could not leave yet.

Half a day passed. The sun was setting.

Flossie could sit still no longer. She was ready to return to the private box to talk to Jerome South again.

Jane South walked out with folded arms and a triumphant face. She looked at Flossie proudly. You can stop waiting now. Daddy has left through the VIP channel. He promised me he’ll never see you again!”

“Really? Let your daddy tell me that in person.”

Before Flossie had even finished her sentence, she had nimbly walked past Jane to go into the private box behind her.

It actually was empty.

Dammit, Jerome South was really going to throw away his principles just to please his daughter!

“I’ve seen the contract. I can’t believe you’re helping another man look for investors even though you’re Halston’s wife. I feel so bad for Halston!”

Jane seemed to be defending Halston against an injustice, but her arrogant face was filled with delight and cunning. She added, “But, I can help you…”

Gourmet Pavilion.

A top class restaurant in Beach City. The preferred place for many businessmen to socialize and entertain guests.

Currently, in their most luxurious dining hall, the Swan Hall, Halston was sitting at the main table, receiving praises and flattery from everyone. He was undoubtedly the center of attention.

“You’re definitely the most outstanding individual in the entire Beach City, Mr. Guajardo. You repeatedly lead H Group to achieve new heights! The likes of us can only look up to you!”
