Lying in bed, Lionel looked at Cherry’s mercenary expression. Although he felt a surge of defiance, he agreed.
If he wanted to have any contact with Hannah at all, cooperating with Cherry was his only option.
With her help, he could stay updated on Hannah’s life.
Finding someone else to help would be difficult, and they wouldn't be as effective as Cherry.
“I can give you the resources you want, but I have one condition…”
Before he could finish, Cherry cut him off.
“Hold on. Let’s just end our cooperation here. Lionel, you need to understand something. I offered to work with you, not the other way around.”
Cherry rolled her eyes, her voice dripping with disdain. “If you’re going to work with me, you’ll do things my way. Don't give me any of your conditions. I don't care what you have to offer; you're in no position to negotiate with me, understand?”
There was definitely something wrong with this guy. He was still trying to set conditions at a time like this.
Lionel really thought too highly of himself. It was precisely that arrogance that had landed him in his current predicament.
Lionel’s eyes darkened as he stared at Cherry’s haughty expression, and he clenched his jaw in frustration.
“You seem to have a problem with that. If you really want to keep pushing your conditions, then we don't need to cooperate. Don’t forget the dynamic of our relationship right now!”
“Fine, I get it. Our cooperation continues. I won't mention any more conditions.”
Seeing that Cherry was not going to be easily swayed, Lionel decided to drop his demands.
“Just bring Hannah to me,” Lionel said with a deep sigh.
“See? If you’d just said that from the start, we could have avoided all this. That’s how you properly cooperate. You really lack self-awareness, you know that?”
With that, Cherry headed for the door, smiling as she walked. “Don’t worry, I’ll get Hannah to come. Just remember, when she talks to you, don’t you dare say I was the one who tipped you off. Otherwise, our deal is off. I assume you’re not stupid enough to betray me again, because there will be no good outcome for you if you do.”
