Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 147

"I won't go. He can take care of his own body. If he doesn't care about it, what can anyone else do?" Ines was stubborn, just like Hunter.

"Miss, the chairman cares about you. Even if he's cut ties with you, he still wants to leave the Galeana Group to you. By then, Emma would only get a tiny bit of the inheritance." Said Silas.

Ines got even more worked up. "I don't give a damn about the Galeana Group. He can give it to whoever he wants. It's none of my business."

"Miss, it's the chairman's lifelong effort. It's a fortune that can't be underestimated." Silas found it hard to believe that Hunter could make such a decision. Ines laughed it off, saying, "Don't treat me like a fool. He's just trying to get me to protect his life's work. He just thinks Emma can't keep it safe. If Emma could handle it, would you guys still be trying to get me into the Galeana Group? The answer is no."

At first, she didn't get why they were all over her, but she soon figured it out.

The man valued the Galeana Group above everything else, but why should she take on this responsibility?

She didn't care. She just wanted a simple life.

Silas was speechless. Undeniably, this was the main reason, but Hunter's love for her was real.

Hearing Ines say this, Ethan wasn't surprised. He knew his wife was smart.

Silas, worried and anxious, couldn't think of a better solution, so he just knelt in front of Ines, his knees hitting the ground with a thud.

Ethan was taken aback; he never expected Silas to kneel out of loyalty to Hunter.

"What the hell are you doing? Get up!" Ines yelled at Silas, her face showing a mix of emotions.

"Ms. Ines, I've watched you grow up. I'm begging you; please go see the chairman. You're the only one who can persuade him now." Silas's voice was shaky.

Ines saw the tears in his eyes and bit her lip.

Ethan looked at Silas, clearly unhappy. "Silas, you're Izzy's elder. What's with the kneeling? You're making her feel bad and pressuring her. It's too much. What would others think of Izzy if they saw this?"

Silas was taken aback. Seeing people looking their way, he realized his action was thoughtless. He bowed to Ines and said, "Ms. Ines, I was just desperate. Please forgive me."

Ines stayed silent. Silas continued, "Ms. Galeana, if one day you want to see your father and he's no longer there, you'll regret it. Please consider it."

Silas left after saying his piece, each step heavy.

Ines was stunned by his words, unable to move.
