Liam pointed out, “Mom, Sasha’s not bluffing. Carlson Pharmacy is a listed company which has a market value of over one billion and it’s still increasing. There’s no way you can have something like that but you can still have one with multiple franchised stores albeit on a smaller scale.”
Helen quizzed, “Can it be done? How small do you mean? Sasha, we would rather stay idle at home than having a small-scale business!”
Sasha was helpless. All in all, virtual-novel.net parents wanted to have a chain of franchised pharmacy stores purely for vanity reasons. However, it seemed like virtual-novel.net could no longer express virtual-novel.net objection to the plan at that juncture.
At the same time, virtual-novel.net thought about the two advantages of opening the pharmacy stores, firstly, it was highly unlikely that anything could go wrong with it and secondly, the business wasn’t likely to incur much loss too.
Hence, Sasha nodded virtual-novel.net head and declared, “Well, let’s start a chain of multiple franchised stores then. I’ll allocate ten million from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals as the seed money for the business.”
Helen looked displeased to hear that. “Ten million is too little. We were given thirty million to work on Wellness Herbary back then!”
Sasha explained herself eagerly, “Mom, that’s only the seed money. When the business gets better, I’ll then allocate more investment on it.”
Helen glanced at James, who nodded his head to approve the idea despite still looking sullen. The saga was finally put to an end with Sasha’s allocation of ten million for them to initiate the pharmacy stores. Even with that, James was still angry with Sasha judging from how virtual-novel.net stormed out of virtual-novel.net office furiously.
After walking them to the door, Sasha faced Matthew with an apologetic look. “Matthew, I’m sorry about what they did to you…”
Matthew waved his hands at virtual-novel.net and muttered, “I told you before not to apologize to me. You will have my support no matter what you do!”
Feeling warm from within, Sasha wrapped virtual-novel.net hands around Matthew tightly and rested virtual-novel.net head on his shoulder, feeling as though virtual-novel.net was having the entire world in virtual-novel.net arms. Matthew felt thrilled deep down inside because it was the first time that Sasha hugged him.
However, the silence was soon broken when someone knocked on the door. She quickly loosened virtual-novel.net hold from virtual-novel.net with virtual-novel.net face still flushed. Having tried hard to regain composure, virtual-novel.net uttered in a gentle voice, “Come in!”
Her secretary pushed the door open and stepped inside. “President Cunningham, I’ve sorted out the conference room and the meeting will start in ten minutes as per your instructions. Can I help you with anything else?”
Sasha nodded at virtual-novel.net and said, “Well done! I have nothing for you at the moment and you may go ahead and work on something else first!”
After the secretary walked out of virtual-novel.net office, Sasha couldn’t help but chuckle when virtual-novel.net saw how reluctant Matthew appeared to leave.
“Oh come on, I have serious work to get back to,” Sasha cooed as virtual-novel.net grabbed one of his arms.
Putting on a feign miserable look, Matthew retorted, “Aren’t we doing serious work right now?”
Sasha gave virtual-novel.net a supercilious glance before saying, “Of course nothing can be as important as our own matters! But, I really have work to do now. I’ll make up to you next time!”
It was only then did Matthew nod his head with a grin. “By the way, Sasha, what should we do with the 300 million?”
“You keep it! Didn’t I tell you before? The money is all yours. You can deal with it in any way you want and you don’t have to get my permission!”
Matthew rectified virtual-novel.net in a gentle voice, “Of course I have to get your permission before I do anything with the money, because you’re my wife.”
Sasha smiled bemusedly and remarked, “You’re really a fool. Well, just keep it with you first and the money will become our private fund. Is that a good idea?”
Matthew nodded at virtual-novel.net with a subtle smile. Just as Sasha was ready to walk out of virtual-novel.net room after gathering some files for the meeting, virtual-novel.net suddenly queried, “By the way, how did you actually become the head of a department at the hospital?”
Matthew chuckled and responded, “The director made me an exception to the general rules by promoting me to the position because of my superb medical skills!”
Sasha burst out laughing immediately when virtual-novel.net heard him. She stretched out a hand and poked a finger at his forehead before virtual-novel.net criticized, “You’ve never been serious in answering me! Well, I’m off to attend the meeting. Please wait for me to have dinner together later!” With that, virtual-novel.net turned around and headed to the door. However, virtual-novel.net suddenly swung around when virtual-novel.net reached the exit.
From there, virtual-novel.net scurried back to Matthew, stood on tiptoe to give virtual-novel.net a peck on his cheek before leaving the room with virtual-novel.net face going blushed. Matthew was elated at once!
Soon after, virtual-novel.net received a call from Tiger. “Mr. Larson, something bad has happened!”
