Peter awkwardly laughed and half-jokingly said, "In the past year, I was your attending physician, and she was your live-in doctor.
We were both pitiful people used and then ruthlessly abandoned by you, the wicked capitalist.
How could we not be familiar with each other?"
His words somehow struck a sensitive nerve in Colton.
He stared coldly at Jennifer, his expression alternating between pale and gloomy, but he still stood in the middle of the road without moving.
Jennifer frowned: Was he doing this on purpose?
"President Redford, are you here at My Gravity to cause trouble?"
Bryan, who had been holding a grudge against Colton, stood in front of Jennifer.
"In My Gravity, no one has ever dared to touch Jennifer... Jennifer in front of me!"
Jennifer shuddered: Bryan was indeed the owner of My Gravity, but she was the controlling shareholder.
Supporting the development of the intelligence organization required a large amount of funds, and My Gravity was just one of her industries.
Bryan managed it properly, making My Gravity famous while everyone thought he was the sole owner.
"Jennifer?"
Colton's eyes narrowed as he unconsciously envisioned Jennifer's seductive image along with her enticing fragrance, making him feel even angrier.
He sarcastically laughed, "I underestimated you.
Even if you were raised in the countryside, you have the means to make men revolve around you, willing to live or die for you."
He slowly approached, observing their intertwined arms expressionlessly.
The two red images mingled together, quite a sight to be seen.
Colton's tone suddenly darkened, "No wonder Rolan's Corporation had such a downfall overnight!
Jennifer, how many more backers do you have?"
"Colton, you've gone too far!"
Peter massaged his forehead: my friend, if you can't speak properly, shut up!
It was clear, Miss Jennifer, the ex-wife, could secretly develop an antidote that even "he" couldn't develop with the entire Steve Corporation Hospital at his disposal.
Jennifer's strength was evident!
This woman was an enigma, silently attracting Colton, and strangely, he was still completely unaware... Or perhaps Colton had already noticed his unusual behavior, which was why he kept losing his composure when facing Jennifer.
Colton indifferently stared at Jennifer without paying any attention to the incoherent Peter.
"Jennifer…"
"President Redford, are you planning on living by the sea, or would you prefer to fly up into the sky?"
Jennifer interrupted him coldly, raising her chin to meet his startling gaze without backing down.
"We are already divorced.
If you don't understand what an ex-wife means, please raise your noble hand and look it up in the English Dictionary.
Don't act like an idiot and mind other people's business here!"
"No matter whether I'm searching for a financial backer or fooling around with a young hunk, it has nothing to do with the big boss!"
Jennifer coldly mocked.
"Even if your hat turned green all the way out to the congo basin, that's not my fault."
Bryan chuckled and provoked, "At least Mr. Redford is not totally foolish, for he can notice the green on his head..."
Colton suddenly took a step forward, his gloomy face full of murderous intent, and the terrifying hostility spread at an alarming rate.
It's unclear if it was because of Jennifer's provocation or his dissatisfaction with Bryan's words.
Frightened, Bryan retreated a step and hid behind Jennifer, whispering, "Jennifer, that gentleman is still waiting.
Let's not waste our time with this heartless man."
Jennifer nodded and was about to leave with Bryan when she saw Colton standing there as if it was frozen in place.
Gritting her teeth, she brushed past the man's shoulder and walked away with an air of pride.
"Jennifer!"
Colton was about to chase after her to settle the score when he was held back by Peter and Nelson.
"What exactly do you want, Colton?"
Peter blocked him.
"You know better than anyone why Jennifer had to resort to meeting with Nathan.
She is the victim here, and your bias should have limits."
He hit the nail on the head, "As far as I know, even if Jennifer used someone else's power to fight back fiercely, at most she only injured Rolan's Entertainment.
Your darling may have taken a hit on the trending searches twice, but the paparazzi didn't even drop a single hint.
Isn't your angry accusation a bit too much?"
Colton halted his steps and spoke irritably, "Peter, are you on Jennifer's side?"
"I'm on the side of justice," Peter sighed.
"You refuse to help her, and then don't allow this young girl to make an effort on her own?
Colton, if you truly feel grateful towards your ex-wife, don't be so oppressive."
Colton felt a burning sensation rise in his chest, making him increasingly irritable.
"Do you see any hint of her wanting to ask for my help?"
Peter and Nelson exchanged a glance, their jaws dropping in shock.
"Are you waiting for her to beg you?"
Did this mean that if Jennifer were willing to ask, he might actually lend her a hand?
Peter was speechless.
"With the way you were poking and mocking her just now, who would dare to ask you for help?
If you want to help someone, can't you change your tone?"
"...What a cloud dream you're having!
It would be a miracle if I didn't teach her a lesson, let alone help her!"
Colton became angrier as he thought about it: He would never let that woman, Jennifer, get away with making Sonia suffer!
Peter rubbed his forehead: Who on earth had enabled this man to act so contrary to his true feelings?
As they dined for about an hour, the moon had risen into the willow branches.
Jennifer cheerfully sent off a tall, handsome man, and patted him on the shoulder: "Mr. Livingston, it was a pleasure working with you."
Liam's mouth twitched: "Are you sure this is cooperation, not taking advantage of someone in a difficult situation?"
"It's a win-win partnership.
I will definitely help you get rid of Nathan, this malignant tumor, and aid you in rising through the ranks," said Jennifer while sending him out of the door in a fully justified manner: "Nathan relies on his father-in-law's illustrious background to suppress you, his immediate superior.
Since you can't blatantly make a move against him, I'll help you out by humbling him."
Liam took the USB drive, which contained more than ten pieces of evidence regarding Nathan's bribery, corruption, breaches of rules and etiquette, and coercion of artists over the years. It would be enough to land him in jail.
"Nathan is careful and insidious in his dealings, rarely leaving any handles for others to grasp.
If it weren't for your extraordinary information-gathering skills, I wouldn't be able to make a move so easily," said Liam as he shook hands with Jennifer.
But suddenly, Jennifer embraced the man's shoulder and leaned over to whisper, "Please help me one more time, for Sonia..."
Just then, a bone-chilling gaze pierced at them.
"Jennifer!
Hugging and holding a man in the open like this, do you have no sense of shame left?"
Colton approached with long strides, like a mountain towering over them, standing face to face with Liam.
Despite his inability to judge well, it didn't affect the forceful and cold atmosphere he exuded: "Are you Nathan?"
Liam raised an eyebrow, feeling that something was off.
He glanced at Jennifer: Was this man Nathan's enemy or your lover?
