Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) -
Chapter 2577 The Mysterious Investment of 30 Billion
"Ms. Shaffer, Mrs. Slob, the previous incident occurred due to our lack of proper oversight, which gave Festus Loomis an opportunity to act on his own. Here, on behalf of the Yarwood Family, I apologize to you." With a serious expression, Grimsby stood up and bowed to the Slob mother and daughter-in-law. "Additionally, as a gesture of our apology, we offer this token of goodwill, eight million in savings. We
hope you won't replace it inadequate."
He straightened up and pushed a check toward Vivian.
Upon hearing this, Linda shifted her gaze to the check, and her breathing unconsciously quickened upon seeing the long string of zeros.
However, Vivian had no interest in such an offer. "We accept your apology, Mr. Grimsby, but we cannot accept this money."
Although she wasn't sure why their attitude had changed so suddenly, her gut feeling told her that accepting the money would lead to trouble in the future.
On the other hand, Ephraim blew a fuse after Vivian expressed her stance. "Vivian, why don't you just accept it? Lavian Pharmaceuticals has just completed its renovation, and I heard you still owe them over
six million in outstanding payments. You could use this money, and it seems Grimsby is genuinely remorseful. Don't let his heartfelt gesture go to waste."
His words struck a chord with Vivian. Lavian Pharmaceuticals did need funds urgently, and now that she had taken on the role of chairwoman, she wanted to contribute to the company's success.
Seeing her expression change, Ephraim quickly signaled to his daughter with his expression. Understanding his intention, she immediately chimed in.
"Vivian, my dad is right. Are you really planning to rely solely on Matthew to support your massive company? You should know that a pharmaceutical company requires significant funding to get fully operational."
Vivian's expression began to change continuously. After hesitating for a long time, she was finally convinced. "I—"
Just as she was about to agree, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open. Adjusting his glasses, Zane quickly walked in.
"Ms. Shaffer, good news. I have good news. Lavian Pharmaceuticals has just received a mysterious capital injection. 30 billion!"
The entire room fell silent in an instant. After a moment, Vivian regained her senses, her eyes filled with disbelief as she asked, "How much did you say it was?"
"Ms. Shaffer, 30 billion!" Zane handed over the transfer records from his tablet to Vivian.
Linda, who was sitting next to her, had her eyes wide open, the magnitude of the number almost overwhelming. 30 billion was a figure most people could only dream of. Their hearts raced, and the excitement threatened to constrict Vivian's breathing.
As for Vivian, the doubts she had been harboring before receiving this astronomical sum vanished instantly. Her heart skipped a beat at the enormous amount. "Grimsby, we don't need the check anymore."
While eight million was not a small amount, compared to 30 billion, it was merely a drop in the ocean.
Vivian's words, though not explicitly stated, were like a slap in the face to Grimsby.
On the opposite side, Grimsby suppressed his inner anger, forced a smile, and offered his congratulations before falling silent.
When Ephraim and Linda attempted to say something more, Vivian coldly smiled and cut them off.
"Uncle Ephraim, Linda, you are well aware of your dealings with the Yarwood Family. I won't pursue it any further. But if you ever try to set us up again, remember that I, Vivian, am not someone to be trifled with."
The dinner almost ended in their deception, and Vivian had no patience for their schemes.
"Mom, let's go!"
Once Vivian and her mother left, Grimsby, feeling dissatisfied, also stood up. "Hmph, you incompetent bunglers," he huffed and briskly exited the private room.
As for the promised 20 thousand reward to Linda beforehand, it naturally went up in smoke.
