As the bra strap fell, a striking scene unfolded. At that moment, Flynn’s hand paused and he was almost envious of the armchair. Scarlet had an amazing figure; every time he looked at her, it was like seeing her for the first time. Her curves were perfect and her legs were long.
Despite being able to eat so much without exercising, she didn’t have an ounce of fat on her body. Some people just have all the luck when it comes to their metabolism.
Flynn thought to himself as he poured some soup into his bowl and reached under Scarlet’s arm…
Five minutes later.
“Are you done yet?” Scarlet breathed heavily with a smile in her eyes.
Flynn quickly withdrew his hand and stiffly said, “Oh, I was lost in thought just now.”
Scarlet re-fastened her bra strap and pursed her lips with a smile. “If you weren’t squeezing me earlier, I almost would’ve believed you.”
Flynn was taken aback for a moment before grinning widely.
Just then, Odin called him on the phone.
“Bro! I’m getting married tomorrow! Come over for some drinks!”
Flynn chuckled. “Where’s your bride from?”
Last time they met, Flynn asked Odin if he was married. He mentioned that it was happening soon, and surprisingly, it was finalized just two days later.
“Hey! You haven’t gotten married either, right?” Odin smiled awkwardly and couldn’t help teasing Flynn, introducing, “My girlfriend is a local girl I met in the University City.”
“A university student?” Flynn was somewhat shocked. “You’re quite something, finding a college student as your wife!”
“I saved Gigi’s life, and I even got stabbed in the leg because of it. Gigi has been good to me, but her parents…”
“Well, I won’t hide it from you. Our relationship is not something to be ashamed of. Her parents think my family is poor.”
“Yesterday, because Gigi insisted on getting married, her mother scolded me and threw all my gifts out.”
“She didn’t like the hotel I booked for the wedding, so her mother booked a four-star hotel, and they want the cash gift for tomorrow as well.”
“Her mother is causing a lot of trouble, and it’s really annoying.”
Flynn was slightly taken aback.
He didn’t expect it to be this situation.
Wasn’t it the same as Paulina?
“Bro, to be honest, if it weren’t for my family insisting on me getting married and Gigi treating me so well, I would want to break up!” Odin’s voice carried deep helplessness.
He didn’t have any celebratory mood about getting married.
“Try to look at it positively. As long as she treats you well, you can live your own life after getting married.” Flynn consoled.
After hanging up the phone, Flynn briefly explained the situation to Scarlet and asked, “How much cash gift would be appropriate for tomorrow? 10 million or 20 million?”
“How about choosing a lucky number, like 9. 99 million?”
Odin was his best friend in high school, so it was reasonable to lend him a hand.
Scarlet rolled her eyes and said unkindly, “Why give millions? Didn’t you hear what your classmate said? The mother-in-law wants to take the cash gift tomorrow!”
“If you give 10 million, do you think Odin will get a single cent?”
“Just give 1, 000 dollars. And after they get married, don’t give money to Odin either. Buy a house, buy a car, and put everything in Odin’s name!”
Alright!
Flynn suddenly felt a little dazed.
The situation now seemed similar to discussing matters with his spouse.
Scarlet had an attitude like a young wife, and her words made sense.
Giving money was unreliable. What if the mother-in-law took it away?
It was better to provide a house and a car.
“Okay! I’ll listen to you.” Flynn nodded and then asked, “Are you going back or staying here tonight?”
Scarlet pouted and looked a bit helpless. “I’d better go back. My aunt complained about me staying out too often last time and almost called my mother.”
“It seems like I should find a place to move out. Being under someone’s control is really uncomfortable!”
Flynn nodded. “Alright! I’ll take you back after you shower, and I’ll also talk to Rose about something.”
Yesterday, he had Nathan buy a small villa and install a security system. They tested it last night, and it worked well.
Flynn decided to give the key to Rose and have her move in.
…
NourishNature Pharmaceuticals, a company under the Hussain family.
“The first phase of clinical trials is complete, and the results are perfect! Mr. Bailey from the National Traditional Medicine Clinic has also reviewed it and confirmed that it is the Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill!”
“Mr. Bailey said that when the Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill is released, he will come to collect a pill and write my name in the ‘Ostrad Medical History’!”
After hanging up the phone with Benjamin, Lilia felt exhilarated.
The employees of NourishNature Pharmaceuticals were filled with excitement.
“I have brought in ten billion in circulating funds from headquarters. Now, we are going full throttle to establish distribution channels, set up production lines, and secure raw materials!”
“Within a week, I want to see the first batch of finished products on the market!”
Lilia gave orders to the managers of various departments.
NourishNature Medicine became a bustling hive of activity.
Phones were ringing, and everyone was working tirelessly to make connections.
For pharmaceutical companies, the sooner a miraculous drug is on the market, the sooner they can earn billions.
The Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill can treat all cardiovascular problems, and there are approximately three hundred million people worldwide with heart issues.
In Ostrad alone, there are around one hundred million cardiovascular patients!
If a pill was sold for ten thousand, and ten million people buy it, that was a hundred billion!
And when it came to saving lives, even if they set the price at a hundred thousand, there will still be plenty of people rushing to buy it!
At this moment, Lilia was like a proud peacock, commanding everything with her long legs in high heels, behaving like a queen.
“Ms. Hussain, the negotiations for the three new production lines have been finalized, and the one billion deposit will be transferred immediately!”
“Ms. Hussain, the prices for several precious raw materials have been settled, and the suppliers have received our one billion transfer. They promised to deliver immediately!”
“Ms. Hussain, the marketing department has arranged the venue, and the official press conference will be held tomorrow. We have also communicated with major investment firms!”
“…”
Messages kept coming in.
A smile appeared on Lilia’s beautiful face.
She calculated that due to the expensive medicinal ingredients, the cost of one pill was around three thousand dollars, and heart disease patients needed to take three pills to recover.
If she priced it at ten thousand per pill, she would earn over twenty thousand from each patient.
With five hundred thousand patients, she could recoup the costs!
This medicine had a clinical cure rate of 99 percent, so its market potential was absolutely enormous.
Once its reputation spread, there will be more than five hundred thousand buyers, maybe even five million!
Who would give up a chance to save their life for thirty thousand?
“Cancel tomorrow’s press conference! Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill won’t seek external funding. The Hussain family will provide the ten billion investment ourselves!”
Lilia wanted to solely fund the Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill!
A project that could make money no matter what, why bother seeking external funding?
Watching Lilia’s commanding queen-like demeanor, Layla turned to Braiden and said, “Lilia is announcing the Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill, so don’t have any misgivings. After all, the Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill and Acebegron Clear Relief serve different medical fields.”
She knew that Braiden had strong jealousy, fearing that he might have other intentions and disrupt the alliance between the three families.
Of course, Layla didn’t mind if the alliance dissolved.
After all, her social status was higher than Lilia and Braiden’s, and even if she relied on herself, the Woods family’s development wouldn’t suffer.
But her good friend Lilia needed this alliance, so Layla spoke up with her advice.
Upon hearing this, Braiden burst into laughter and waved his hand, saying, “Ms. Woods, you underestimates me. If Ms. Hussain has a new medicine, I will definitely be happy for her. After all, we are in an alliance! We become stronger through mutual progress!”
“Besides, I’m about to obtain the ancient formula for Black Ginseng Paste.”
As he said this, Braiden paused for a moment, speaking in a mysterious and low voice, “Do you know? The King of Poison has come to Niarak, and I have already had met him!”
