The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 767

Jeremy reminisced about the day when he went to Catherine to propose his deal.

“Ms. Turner, you only have one last chance right now.”

Jeremy was comfortably sitting on the sofa, his finger interlocked.

He looked at Catherine and calmly said, “If you hand over the Turner Group’s shares, I will help your husband recover.” Catherine glared at Jeremy.

Hate made her eyes red.

She didn’t hesitate at all and rejected him on the spot.

“No! If you think you’ll get your hands on the shares of the Turner Group, then you’re dreaming!”

At that time she had been running around to find a way to cure his husband’s illness. The exhaustion had taken a toll on her. She was extremely haggard.

The elegance and nobility she once had as an upper-class lady had been long lost.

Jeremy took pleasure in seeing Catherine’s distress. His smile grew wider and crueler.

“Do you really think you still have any options left?” He taunted.

Unwillingness was obvious on Catherine’s face.

She clenched her fists tightly and bit her lower lip but said nothing, only stared at Jeremy.

If her daughter hadn’t died, perhaps she would still have the privilege to make a choice.

But now, she was left with no choice. There were only two paths in front of her. And both were dead- ends.

If she refused Jeremy’s offer and let Luke suffer, she would still have to give up the Turner Group if Luke died. She could end up watching the Turner Group get taken and divided among the Turner family members and other shareholders. She would have no share in it. Or she could agree to Jeremy’s demands, hand over the shares of the Turner Group, and save Luke’s life. And regardless of who owned the Group, she would have Luke to rely on.

Once he had recovered, she wouldn’t have to live a difficult life from that day forward.

Jeremy knew full well and understand she would only have two options.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to approach Catherine so brazenly to demand the shares.

In addition, Jeremy knew deep down that a pampered and spoiled wealthy lady, without the courage or ability to handle the fallout after Luke’s death, would be powerless against the ensuing chaos.

Jeremy was at an advantage for multiple reasons.

With a calm expression, he waited for Catherine to make her decision.

Minutes passed but Jeremy remained patient.

He did not pressure Catherine nor showed any signs of irritation.

Watching his prey struggle helplessly, without any means of escape was his favorite thing to do.

After a long while, Catherine lowered her noble head as if accepting her fate, and spoke in a despondent and desperate tone.

“Please save my husband.” Her back slumped down as soon as the words left her mouth. It was hard to believe she had been a dignified lady.

All of her pride and haughtiness vanished like smoke.

Jeremy let out a hearty laugh.

“Ms. Turner, you and Mr. Turner do love each other so much. Don’t worry, I will make sure the two of you are reunited.” Under Jeremy’s care, it didn’t take long for Luke to wake up from his coma.

However, he wasn’t fully recovered yet.

With the stroke-like condition he was suffering from, he was unable to walk and his speech was limited.

The power and prestige he once had slipped from his hands.

He was not one of the most successful men in the business world anymore.

Catherine, having lost her pillar of support, had no choice but to swallow her bitterness and resentment as she watched her husband become a virtual invalid.
