Chapter 552

"What happened? Calm down and tell me," Renee said. Her brows furrowed deeply as she helped Leia, who was trembling in exhaustion, up.

"My brother... My brother is in trouble!" Leia exclaimed, her pretty face now as pale as a ghost. She took a deep breath before stammering, "Earlier, he went to get a loan at the bank to solve Azure Group's financial issues. He used his shares in Osborne Group as collateral. Initially, everything was fine, and he simply needed to repay the money on time. But somehow, my father got wind of it..."

Renee's grip on Leia's arm tightened as a foreboding feeling of dread overcame her.

"What happened?"

"You know how my father is. When he's angry, he doesn't care about anything. You know how we Osbornes started our business in the grayer parts of the industry, don't you? He's using his old ways to punish Liam! H- he's going to be beaten to death at this rate!" Leia gushed out everything and burst into tears.

She looked helpless as she begged Renee, "Ren, please think of a way to save my brother! He's going to die!"

"Okay. Stop crying. Where are they now? I'll go see them," Renee comforted Leia as she packed her things and prepared to leave.

She didn't know Geronimo well, only that he was a stubborn, deeply conservative old man who ruled his family with an iron fist. As the long-awaited heir of Geronimo, Liam was the second largest shareholder of Osborne Group and had always been his family's favored child.

Liam, however, had quietly mortgaged his shares to cover a small technology company's financial hole.

Even as an outsider, Renee was furious at what he had done.

"Your brother has really lost his mind this time. Even if he trusted Azure Group and me, he shouldn't gamble the future of Osborne Group like this. What if our project fails? What if Azure Group goes bankrupt? Did he think about the consequences?"

"Who's to say he hasn't? My brother is motivated by love. In the past few years, he supported your career and expanded Azure Group to the point of almost emptying out our family's coffers! My father has been unhappy about it for a while now, but he never expected Liam to take out a loan using his shares as collateral! This time, my father might actually kill him to vent his anger!"

"It was my fault. I was too slow to realize that this would happen," Renee said, hanging her head low as she was consumed with guilt.

Renee had always thought that Liam was funding Azure Group with Osborne Group's approval. She never imagined that he was struggling to this extent.

"Hey, it isn't your fault. Clearly, someone has been spreading rumors. My brother wouldn't be in this tough situation if there weren't! Let's focus on how to save him first!"

"You're right. Let's not waste any more time. We have to go."

Before leaving, Renee instructed Aiden not to run around and ensured he had enough food and water. With Aiden's intelligence, she trusted he could take care of himself.

Renee and Leia drove the car flat-out, arriving in no time at the Osborne residence, a luxurious mansion in the western district. From afar, Renee could hear Geronimo's thunderous voice, "Don't stop me! I'll beat this loser to death today! He'll take nine thousand nine hundred and eighty-one hits from this iron whip! Not a single blow will miss! I'll beat anyone who tries to stop me!" In the living room of Osborne Mansion, Geronimo's five sisters and five sons-in-law, Mrs. Osborne, and Hayden Jacobs, were all present.

Liam, who was usually charming and elegant, was now completely unrecognizable. His sturdy back was covered in cuts and bruises, and there was not a single inch of skin was left unblemished
