Andy had already paid the hospital a lot of money. Although the Innova Group had arranged social insurance for Jacob, his injuries were not covered. In the afternoon, Eric and Andy returned to the hospital. To their surprise, Ava was also there. Not only was she released, but the other men were also set free, except for the one who had used the vase to hit Jacob's head. Ava sat by the bedside while feeding Jacob food. Surprisingly, Jacob seemed to be enjoying the attention.Andy shook his head in disbelief. He had worried Ava might persuade Jacob to drop the charges, which was happening now. Jacob was enjoying Ava's attention and pampering now. If he decided to drop the charges, the gang might escape imprisonment and compensation for any money.Seeing Eric, Ava became apprehensive. After all, those people in the underworld addressed Eric respectfully, and it was clear he was someone she could not mess with. Therefore, she hastily left without finishing feeding Jacob.Andy's fa

"Is our family really in such dire need of money?" Lily asked, "You're still young and own a company! As humans, we must live with dignity! Aren't you worried that people might mock you upon discovering that others have assaulted your brother?"Andy was rendered speechless.If sacrificing dignity could bring in 800,000 dollars, Andy was willing to let go of his pride. When one was financially strapped, what purpose did pride serve? Could it provide sustenance?Andy did not even want to argue anymore. Four people had four different viewpoints. Andy just wanted the money and was not concerned about how authorities handled the case. Colin preferred sending them to prison, while Lily wanted money and prison time.As for Jacob, he did not want money or to send them to prison. However, he did not dare to tell them anything. -In the afternoon, Elly picked up the two kids and came to the hospital. Jacob was staying in a high-end ward where food was provided, and there was a room for fa

Moreover, some of the parents might pass their unfulfilled dreams to their kids. Thus, kids were important to the parents.Lily was taken aback. In her memory, Jacob was the rebellious one, while Andy had always been the obedient sibling. She could not believe that he was shouting at her now. "You're shouting at me because of that jinx?!" Lily began. "Her kids aren't my grandchildren! I won't acknowledge her kids!""Mom, please stop," Andy said. "I love her, and that's all that matters. Even more importantly, she is pregnant. You can say whatever you want behind our backs, but if you keep saying those things in front of her, don't blame me…"He did not finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he wanted to say. His parents were stunned, and it seemed to them that Andy was serious this time. He could tolerate his parents' unreasonable behavior up to a certain point, but there were boundaries to his patience and understanding.-Andy took a day off the next day and went with Ell

Jacob had no intention of returning the money, and Andy chose not to confront the issue. He was busy managing the Innova Group and arranging his wedding with Elly. He wanted to provide a perfect ceremony, and it had to be done before Elly's bump became noticeable.Andy kept the guest list small. He did not invite relatives from the Bikmans but invited quite a lot of employees from the Innova Group, Williams Corp., and Sonnex Corp. "When are you two going to get your wedding done?" Pierce asked.Even though Eric and Sylvia had been registered for several years and were about to have a child, they had not held a wedding yet.Sylvia smiled. "There's no rush for now. Everyone has been quite busy recently." She felt that Eric was not ready yet.Pierce nodded. "If you can't find the time, let the Combat Department arrange it. They can organize a special wedding for you." Eric was a Lieutenant General, and Sylvia was considered part of the Combat Department, so they were entitled to

If Eric were to utilize his authority and connections, he could undoubtedly secure substantial orders for the Innova Group. The domestic market alone could bring a lot of profit to the Innova Group. However, Eric had refrained from doing so as he did not want the thing that Sylvia mentioned from happening.While initially presenting as a device manufacturer, the Innova Group had progressively transitioned to becoming a communication solution provider in recent years. After all, the production of devices was bound to reach a saturation point sooner or later, but solutions were always a valuable and huge market.Pierce chuckled. "It's all for the sake of information security. The Innova Group's technology and devices have been market-tested. In fact, the military has tested your equipment, and the testing team provided high praise. As for your concern, it's an even smaller issue. You just do what you have to do. You don't have to care about what other people say!" Sylvia glanced at E
