He lay back on the bed but still could not fall asleep. Stephen's eyes were wide open as memories of his
classmates flooded his mind. After all these years, it seemed like none of them were doing particularly well.
"Sigh." Stephen sighed, got out of bed, and took a melatonin pill.
He returned to bed and thought of something while waiting for the pill to take effect. "I don't have enough
people around me."
Julius was dead, George was jailed, Rachel hated him, and he still did not know whether Nolan was his ally or
enemy.
"I need a helper." Stephen understood. "I need to have someone | can trust!"
If he had someone loyal who truly had his back, many problems would not feel so overwhelming. His burden
would be lighter too!
"Who would be suitable for this role?"
Stephen's first thought was to reach out to his friends back in the capital. However, due to Riveria's recent
situation and the incident with Andy, there was no way those prestigious families would spare anyone to help
him. He would have to find someone himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuddenly, Stephen thought of Jeremy. Jeremy was his schoolmate, and he knew about Jeremy's character and
family situation. Moreover, Jeremy was in urgent need of money. If Stephen helped him financially, he knew
Jeremy would be grateful and stick by him no matter
what.
Stephen picked up his phone again and called Blake.
"Stephen, what is it?"
Blake was confused as to why Stephen was calling him again.
"I've been thinking... Since we were schoolmates, and | have the means, | want to
help him as much as | can. GiveJeremy's number."
Blake was delighted. "Okay! Stephen, you're such a kind person! But you don't need to call him yourself-I'll have
him call you."
Stephen felt a little guilty. He was not really a kind person. He just needed Jeremy's help.
Soon, Jeremy called him.
"Is this Stephen?" His voice sounded nervous.
"It's me."
"Are you really going to help me?" Jeremy said," The hospital said my mother's condition is serious, and the
surgery would cost at least 300 thousand dollars. It doesn't have a high

success rate either. Even the doctor doesn't recommend to go for it."
Stephen suppressed a chuckle. 300 thousand dollars was nothing to him. When he was younger, his family had
spent more than that on a single vacation.
"Leave it to me. Besides the surgery fee, | will handle the follow-up treatment costs and your family's debt."
Jeremy was so shocked that he was speechless for a moment. After a while, he finally cto
his senses.
"Stephen, my life is yours! If you needfor anything, just givethe orders."
Stephen smiled. That was what he wanted. He would do Jeremy a favor to secure the latter's loyalty and
minimize the risk of betrayal. Then, he would have Jeremy secretly investigate the Spencers’ and the South
Regent's businesses.
"I'll transfer the money to you. Contactonce everything is sorted out."
"Okay, Thank you, Stephen! Thank you so much!
After hanging up the phone, Stephen felt a little more at ease. Not only did he
help a schoolmate, but he also gained a reliable subordinate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe next afternoon, Stephen received a call from Jeremy.
"Stephen, I'm done with my work here." Jeremy's voice cthrough, but it sounded a little flat and lifeless to
Stephen.
Stephen smiled. "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Jeremy asked, "Do you needfor something urgent now?"
"Sort of," Stephen answered.
There were quite a few matters to resolve in Hill City.
"I'll meet you right away."
After getting the address for their meeting, Jeremy hung up and rushed to Hill City immediately.
