Chapter 110 Magnus Came to Lindwood City
"What did you say? Dad wants Juniper to use Shirley's identity to apply for a visa? Who does Juniper think she is? She's nothing more than a cat or dog that Dad picked up!" Karen, upon hearing this, was furious.
Back then, she was taken away from the orphanage by Christopher, who also gave her a name.
At that time, she liked this name very much.
Becoming Christopher's adopted daughter meant she no longer had to endure bullying at the orphanage or eat leftover meals.
From the moment she became Karen, her life seemed to have gained an advantage.
But it couldn't compare to Shirley's name.
Shirley is Christopher's biological daughter.
Christopher had only one expectation for Shirley. That is a lifetime of peace, joy, and smiles.
Karen said to the assistant on the phone, "What is the background of this Juniper? According to Dad, she used to work at SY. Could she be a spy sent by the SY Group?"
"You go and investigate. If she really is a corporate spy sent by the other side, I will surely crush her."
No matter what Juniper's motives were, Karen would not let her succeed.
A week later, the visa to M country was successfully obtained.
Christopher handed Juniper a piece of leather bag, "Inside this is your identification and visa documents for M country. Keep them safe."
Juniper took the heavy leather bag, clenching her fingers.
Juniper's eyes became moist, and she sniffed with bitterness, "You are my benefactor. Even my biological father has never treated me like this."
Ironically, she felt the paternal love for the first time, but it was from someone unrelated by blood.
Alexander Beaumont has never shown her fatherly love.
Christopher patted Juniper on the shoulder. "I asked Anthony Walker, and he said that your condition can no longer be delayed. Your visa has been processed, so you need to leave for M country immediately. I've asked Anthony Walker to arrange a contact at the Mayo Clinic for you."
Juniper nodded.
Mr. Christopher took out a credit card and handed it to her. "This is a credit card that can be used worldwide. There will be many places where you will need money for treatment. If you need cash, feel free to call me and I will have someone transfer it to you."
Juniper looked at the credit card, her eyes welling up with tears.
Seeing her hesitation, Mr. Christopher stuffed the credit card into her hand. "Take it. I know you feel indebted, but you can pay me back later with a three percent interest. You can owe me for now."
Juniper cried and smiled. She held the credit card and said, "Okay, with three percent interest. I will repay you in the future."
"That's right. When you're alive, you have to think about the future. You can't think negatively anymore. You still owe me three percent interest."
"Mr. Christopher, thank you."
Juniper's gaze was solemn, and her voice trembled with indescribable gratitude and touched emotions.
She clenched the credit card, feeling her heart soften and collapse.
It turns out that those who have endured suffering don't really need much sweetness. Just a little bit is enough to heal.
That little bit of sweetness is enough to support her and keep her going.
Christopher didn't just save her life, he lifted her entire life out of the quagmire from which she couldn't escape.
If there is any mercy from heaven towards her, it is the fortune of meeting Mr. Christopher.
"Mr. Christopher, I will live on and cherish my life. Please rest assured."
Christopher had just left the ward.
His phone started ringing, Ronald's name showing on the caller ID.
"Dad, someone from SY has arrived. Magnus came in person and is now waiting for you to sign the contract in the number one conference room in the company."
"Good, I'll go over right away."
Windsor Group, conference room.
A man stood by the window, his back straight and broad.
Soon, both Christopher and Ronald arrived.
"Mr. Blackwood, nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you." Christopher stepped forward and shook hands with Magnus.
The negotiations went smoothly.
An hour later, the Windsor Group and SY signed a supply chain agreement.
This time, Magnus came to Lindwood City with only one assistant, Joseph.
Christopher was somewhat surprised, "I never thought Mr. Blackwood would personally come to Lindwood City to sign the contract."
"This time I came to Lindwood City, not just for business. To be honest, signing the contract with the Windsor Group is just a side matter. I have something more important and I would like to ask for your help."
"Oh? Is there something Mr. Blackwood can't do that an old man like me can help with?"
Christopher had heard of Magnus before.
SY, the company, was founded six years ago while Magnus was still studying for his PhD.
Then, the founder was murdered and imprisoned, serving three years in jail.
Afterward, he was released and in just three years, he turned SY from a startup to an indomitable large financial conglomerate.
His past was like a dazzling mist, extremely dangerous and intriguing.
But Magnus's methods were apparent.
Decisive and swift, with thunderous decision-making, he was a business genius and an absolute leader.
What else was there that he couldn't accomplish?
Magnus's attitude was very sincere, "I know your reputation and connections in Lindwood City. While my influence and connections are in the north, in the south, your words hold sway. To be honest, I would like to ask for your help in finding someone in the south."
"Searching for someone?"
Magnus took out a photo and handed it to Christopher.
Christopher took a look at it, and his deep eyes subtly changed, but his face remained impassive.
He asked, "Who is this?"
"She is Juniper, my wife."
Christopher was stunned for a few seconds.
Juniper had said that she had no family in the Imperial Capital.
But Magnus claimed that Juniper was his wife.
There must be some hidden truth in all of this.
Naturally, Christopher stood on Juniper's side. Juniper had survived a near-death experience but chose not to contact Magnus, so there must be a reason behind it.
He raised his hand and pushed his glasses up, frowning. "I have met her, two months ago, I bought a house from her. But I didn't expect that a small salesperson like her would be your wife."
"Mr. Christopher, if you have any information about her, please let me know. As long as you can help me find any information about her, you can name your price."
He looked at Magnus and said in a deep voice, "Alright, I will do my best. However, if there is something Mr. Blackwood can't do, I'm afraid I won't be able to help either."
Magnus nodded slightly, understanding naturally.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Christopher."
After Magnus and Joseph left, Ronald looked at the photo and frowned. "Dad, I asked Juniper last night, and she said she didn't know Magnus."
"That girl seems to be burdened with something. If it weren't for being forced to a dead end, she wouldn't have jumped into the sea. We still can't fully understand Magnus's intentions, and we can't let a single word about Juniper leak out."
"Yes."
