Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 345 Once we had eaten our fill , the conversation shifted naturally to the partnership . " I wonder how big the deal you're offering is , Mr. Grimwald , " Joe began , smiling at me and narrowing his eyes . I calmly held up four fingers . " According to projections , the market I can dominate should make this at least a 42- million - dollar deal . If the drug meets my standards and our profits exceed expectations , I'm willing to increase the investment . " Sleeping Giant's net worth might currently be only 14, million dollars , but our potential could easi million - dollar bank loan .

I had already made my decision : go big or go home . Everyone at the table froze . Glasses slipped from hands , and jaws dropped . " T - That's a lot ... " ' re a 28- " You're incredible , Mr. Grimwald ! Your company's potential is staggering ! " Taylor and Wayne exclaimed , their faces red . They picked up their glasses again and toasted me with even more deference . Anyone who could secure a deal like this would instantly become the leader of Beaushire's pharmaceutical industry . Even Joe could no longer remain skeptical . He pushed the two aside and raised his glass .

" Step aside , you two . You've toasted Mr. Grimwald enough already ! If I didn't know better , I'd think you were trying to drown him ! " He smiled widely at Sebastian . " You've impressed me today , Mr. Grimwald . Let me introduce my company as well . Joe's Dispensary is the largest pharma company in Beaushire . We have the best equipment and the most experienced personnel in the entire city . " I'm happy to negotiate further . Joe's Dispensary might not even need the full 42 million dollars to get this project running ! " Lady Luck must be smiling on me to have allowed us to meet .

And , of course , I must thank you , Mr. Bankman , for acting as her emissary . I'm at your command , Mr. Grimwald ! " Joe chuckled and finished his wine in one go . Taylor and Wayne stiffened . This fellow was trying to beat his rivals with a price war . Since Joe's Dispensary was the biggest pharma company in Beaushire , its capital rivaled the combined net worth of Lockheed Pharma and Shawn Inc. That meant Joe could easily lower the investment required . ' Asshole ! ' Taylor cursed in his mind . ' He's always used this tactic to hamstring us in the competition ! ' Wayne grumbled inwardly .

Sebastian remained silent , so Joe decided to up the ante . " Here's one more piece of information you might find interesting . We're currently sponsoring a prestigious medical competition in Beaushire . " I nodded . Of course I knew . " Yes . A friend of mine is competing . " Joe's eyes practically glinted . " What perfect timing ! The prize this year is a formula worth millions . Since you're entering this market , Mr. Grimwald , I'd love to present it to you as a welcome gift ! " He leaned in and lowered his voice . " And , if you wish , just say the word , and your friend will win it .

I'm sure they're a medical genius too , aren't they ? " 1/2 Sara Lili Sara Lili is a daring romance writer who turns icy landscapes into scenes of fiery passion. She loves crafting hot love stories while embracing the chill of Iceland's breathtaking cold.
