Chapter 82
“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 Renee, 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 Renee. 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, Renee 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.

present. I believe Miss Chase can definitely feel your fatherly love in heaven.”
“Jerome South suddenly stared at Renee 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…”
Renee’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 Renee’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.
Renee 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 Renee with appreciation and gratitude in his eyes. He went straight to

Renee smiled and took out the contract she had prepared along with a pen, then handed them to

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 Renee.
“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 Stefan’s wife, yet you’re speaking for Azure Group. This is rather interesting.”
Renee 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!”
