No Renewal: My Contract Husband
Chapter 359 The Partnership
“If this keeps up, Horizon really will go bankrupt, Alfred
Norris cried out repeatedly, losing even the last shred of dignity, bowing over and over outside the Keywood Group building.
Suddenly, he heard Alfred snort softly, making Norris freeze.
He looked up, meeting Alfred’s piercing gaze from above.
“Almost forgot about you.”
The words sent a shiver down Norris’s spine, a bad premonition wrapping around him.
Alfred lowered his eyes at the man kneeling before him and his lips curved into a cold, thin smile.
“Didn’t anyone from Hilltop Rehab inform you that Leonard’s wife has been taken by my people?”
The words “Hilltop Rehab” hit Norris like a bucket of ice water, draining the color from his face.
He slumped to the ground, trembling, realizing that this time, it was truly over.

“You got everything you weren’t supposed to, relying on a bought favor. Now, I’m just taking it all back.”
Adjusting his suit collar, Alfred added, “Go home and figure out how to answer your creditors,” then strode into the Keywood Group building.
“Alfred! Mr. Keywood, please, have mercy! Please spare me, Mr. Keywood!
“I know I was wrong! I deserve this, please…”
But no matter how low Norris bowed, how desperately He begged, Alfred’s steps never faltered.
He was not the type to give in.
That life-saving favor-a debt he had bought and paid for-had been credited to the wrong person, turning his entire life into a cruel joke.
Thinking of it made Alfred suppress a smirk.
Back on the top floor, Sergio came forward. “Mr. Keywood, Northvalen is still trying to reach out for a partnership regarding the Northvalen West Coast shipping line.”
Alfred paused slightly, frowning with irritation.
“Didn’t we make it clear already? That route is for Keywood Group’s use only.”
“Yes. We’ve rejected them multiple times, but they’re pe sistent, even proposing to send someone to Craystan to meet in person. It’s a bit odd, so I thought I mention it.”
Alfred nodded slightly. “No meeting. No response need.”
“Yes, sir.”
Sergio turned to leave but heard Alfred ask, “How’s the Macks’ situation?”

“All evidence has been handed to the police. Attorney Serrigan will accompany Mrs. Porter throughout the prosecution.”
Alfred nodded. “You follow the process, too. Fully cooperate with Sherrigan and the prosecution team on anything they need.”
