Alicia shook her head at him.
“We have nothing to talk about. There’s no need to go somewhere else,” she said.

After a moment’s thought, she added, “If you’re here for the Hammond Group shares, don’t bother. I’ve already sold them.”
In her previous life, when Collin found out she was selling her Hammond Group shares, he contacted her right away. wanting to buy them.
She turned him down without hesitation.
Collin blinked in surprise. “You already sold them?”
Thinking back to that video, he asked, “Did you sell them to the big shareholder of the Hammond Group?”
Alicia shot him a look that screamed, ‘None of your business. “Who I sold them to has nothing to do with you, Mr. Delaney.”
Seeing her reaction, Collin was sure Alicia had sold the shares to that major shareholder.
Things were probably about to get messy inside the Hammond Group.
Just like Kevin said, Alicia was really going all out against the Hammond family now.
But Alicia had already sold the shares, and judging by her attitude, there was no way she’d reconsider.
No need to keep pestering her about it and get on her nerves.
Better focus on his own business instead.
Collin shrugged, “Suit yourself. Whatever makes you happy.”
He continued, “I’m not here about the shares. I came to ask you for a favor.”
Alicia arched an eyebrow. “Help with what?”
Collin got straight to the point. “I need you to ask one of your professors at Solmare Medical College to help me get in touch with his mentor, Dr. Lowell.”
“A friend of mine is really sick, and Dr. Lowell is probably the only one who can actually cure them.”
Alicia instantly got what he meant. “Sorry, I can’t help you there.
“Dr. Lowell’s gone abroad for an international medical aid project. He’s not around these days.”
In her previous life, Collin had come to her for help about this before too.
Back then, things between them weren’t as tense as they got later, so she actually tried to help him out.
But Dr. Lowell was really out of the country and couldn’t come back anytime soon, so he wasn’t able to treat Collin’s friend.
She heard Collin ended up finding someone else to help, but she didn’t follow up after that, so she had no idea how things turned out.

Collin had heard Dr. Lowell was out of the country too. “Could you ask your professor to reach out to Dr. Lowell? Maybe he could come back and take a look.”
If Alicia’s professor stepped in, maybe Dr. Lowell would be willing to return and help out.
Alicia replied, “Dr. Lowell won’t be back anytime soon.”
Collin asked, “Could you maybe give him a call and see when he might have some time?”
Alicia frowned. “We have nothing to do with each other anymore. Why should I go out of my way to make that call for you?
You guys really have some nerve–only showing up when you need something. Well, I’m not playing along this time.
“Go ask someone else for help.”
She added, “And don’t even think about coming to me for anything ever again. I’m not lifting a finger for you people.”
Collin stared at her, totally stunned. ‘You really won’t help me out with just this little favor?‘
He continued. “Getting Dr. Lowell on board is key for a huge project the Delaney Group is about to launch.
“Celia poured everything she had into the Delaney Group. Don’t you want to see it keep thriving?”
Alicia let out a cold laugh. “So you actually remember my mom gave everything to the Delaney Group?
“When my uncle died, it was my mom who kept the Delaney Group afloat.
“She went on to launch a bunch of new perfume and fragrance lines.
“She even scouted a killer tech team and saved the medical branch when it was about to go under.
