Now, with all that had transpired, Blakely Group would certainly not settle privately. Instead, they would compensate for the deceased and injured according to legal provisions.

Based on the existing evidence, it was highly unlikely that the fatality would be classified as a work-related death. The deceased worker would bear the primary responsibility for his negligence, reducing the compensation significantly from Harrell's initial offer.

This left Julius incensed.

Julia phoned Julius and analyzed the situation. "Validating responsibilities will likely take at least a month, and negotiating compensation will also be time-consuming. Given the trouble you've caused Tyrone Blakely, he'll probably try to prolong the negotiations and reduce the compensation amount. He might even push you to resort to a lawsuit, which could take several more months. The lawyers at Blakely Group are top-notch. They might be able to delay the process even further. It's possible that you won't receive the compensation until one or two years from now. Furthermore, if your father is deemed primarily responsible for his death, Tyrone might sue you, and you could end up having to compensate him for his loss. He's a capitalist. You can't fathom how despicable those capitalists can be."

The more Julius dwelled on it, the angrier he grew. He loathed Tyrone and desired vengeance against him.

As a result of these events, Blakely Group's stock price plummeted, inciting some shareholders to protest outside the group's headquarters.

One of them, Alick, spurred by his financial loss and personal issues, along with Julia's manipulation and incentives, decided to retaliate against Tyrone.

"Galilea, Mr. Blakely will ship you off overseas, and you won't be able to return. But my parents are here. I can't leave. From now on, you're on your own." In the hospital room, Julia bade her farewell to Galilea.

Having once aspired to make Galilea Mrs. Blakely and use his influence to elevate her own status, Julia now realized that her fate rested in Tyrone's hands.

If Tyrone despised her, Julia would be unable to use his influence.

She had seen with the replacement of the Cloudwater Town's leading actress and the MQ Clothing's spokesperson. All of Galilea's work engagements were abruptly canceled, despite her attempts to negotiate.

Galilea was taken aback by Julia's words. "Julia, are you abandoning me too? Please, don't leave me. I won't give up!" she implored, struggling to sit up despite the searing pain from her wounds.

"Tyrone's affection for you has faded. No matter what you do, it's futile. Perhaps going abroad isn't such a bad idea. It might present an opportunity for a fresh start. But I can't join you. You're on your own now," Julia replied, before walking out of the ward.

To avoid ending up in jail, she decided to keep a low profile from now on.

“Julia! Julia..." The desperation in Galilea's voice was unmistakable as she called out for Julia.

As Julia departed, Galilea's eyes widened, and they turned red with emotion.

Even Julia wouldn't stand in her corner.

It seemed she had to be sent abroad.

In the ward, Galilea's mother, Evie, set the soup on the table, filled a bowl, and murmured, “Look at the state you're in. Tyrone couldn't even be bothered to show his face after you were injured."

Leaning against the headboard, Galilea remained silent, her irritation palpable.
