Chapter 2915: Chapter 2924: Benjamin Sinclair Arrives
Renee’s expression changed repeatedly, her gaze already trembling.
She pressed her lips tightly together, no longer struggling as she did earlier, as if contemplating what choice to make.
This time, Adam didn’t urge her, giving her the chance to think it through. He knew very well what kind of person Renee was, she cared about interests and was inherently smart; she absolutely understood the implications of what he had just told her.
As time ticked by, Renee’s palms were drenched in sweat.
The balance in her heart had already begun to tilt towards the 15 million.
With Adam’s current firm stance, the child in her belly certainly wouldn’t be kept. If she didn’t agree, she wouldn’t even get the 15 million in compensation. That would be a major loss!
Moreover, just as Adam said, she could choose to retaliate later, reveal she was pregnant to Olivia Lewis, and pin the forced miscarriage on Adam. But afterward, she might face Adam’s retaliation, affecting her family as well, proving to be counterproductive.
If it were before, she certainly wouldn’t be afraid, as she was sure Adam wasn’t someone who would vent his anger on other people’s families. Now... she’s not so sure.
As the ten minutes were almost up, the balance in Renee’s heart was leaning endlessly towards the 15 million again.
Just then, a group of people hurriedly rushed over.
The leading man, upon seeing Adam gripping her hand, suddenly changed his expression, his voice like a thunderous bell, full of anger, "Adam, what are you doing! Let go of Renee’s hand, can’t you see her wrist is red from your grip! Where are your manners! Did I teach you to treat women this way!"
Adam squinted his eyes immediately, ignored the hastily arriving Benjamin Sinclair, and stared at Renee with a sullen expression, "You really exceeded my expectations, seems I was too polite to you before!"
Renee was unnerved by his sinister gaze, her heart trembling involuntarily, biting her lip in frustration. She didn’t know how to explain it. She had planned to subtly hint to Austin Harper that she was pregnant, to find Adam, then remind him that Benjamin Sinclair could be invited over. This way, she could naturally let Benjamin learn of her pregnancy, leaving the marriage crisis in his hands to handle, keeping herself completely clean.
She hadn’t anticipated Adam’s firm and ruthless attitude, entirely distrusting her, insisting on aborting the child. Austin had brought Benjamin at such a crucial moment, leaving her stuck between a rock and a hard place. But now that they’ve arrived, she couldn’t take Adam’s 15 million in front of Benjamin Sinclair, so she bit her lip and feigned ignorance, "I didn’t call Uncle Sinclair, I came directly to find you, I don’t know how Uncle Sinclair found his way here."
Their conversation was not discreet, others naturally heard their exchange.
Austin Harper, who came with Benjamin Sinclair, immediately stepped forward to defend, with a stern face standing up for Renee, "Adam, I was the one who called Uncle Sinclair. Sister Renee didn’t know. Don’t blame everything on Sister Renee!"
"Ha." Adam, overwhelmed with anger, ironically laughed, a mocking laugh, "Isn’t it because she revealed to you that she was coming to see me, while casually mentioning that my dad can control me?"
"You—" Austin’s face changed, wanting to refute but failing to, as Renee had inadvertently told him these things, making Adam’s accusation not entirely wrong.
