She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 1014

Moreover, his mother was a massive fan of "Schrödinger's Pill."

It was just that, even now, she had no idea that the brilliant pharmaceutical genius she had admired for so long was actually her future daughter-in-law—

Melanie Royce.

Melanie's figure involuntarily surfaced in Preston's mind, and he suddenly began to mutter to himself, "Medical trivia... first place gets a cash prize..."

The moon set and the sun rose, day turning into night and back again.

Early in the morning, corporate employees diligently rushed to catch the subway or bus, hurrying to clock in for work.

The Royce Group.

Inside the CEO's office.

As Melanie handed a signed document back to Everett Kingsley, she found herself asking him a question, "Everett, tell me... is there any way to make thirty million dollars overnight?"

Everett froze, just about to open his mouth.

"Besides winning the lottery."

He closed his mouth, then opened it again to try and answer.

"And besides robbing a bank."

Everett remained silent.

Seeing his lack of response, Melanie couldn't help but urge him, "Well, say something?"

Everett looked utterly helpless.

Aside from winning the lottery or robbing a bank, there really didn't seem to be any other way!

Reading Everett's expression, Melanie knew he was out of ideas.

She propped her chin on her hand and let out a heavy sigh.

Did she really have to rely on Preston?

Was she truly incapable of doing it herself?

Melanie shook her head vigorously, correcting herself seriously, "No, no, no. A woman can never say she's incapable."

Watching Melanie mutter to herself, Everett was completely lost.

Why would she suddenly ask about making thirty million dollars overnight?

Evenings were always the busiest time at the Eclipse Noir Club, and as the boss, Daphne simply couldn't step away.

Since she and Everett hadn't been dating for long, they were still in the honeymoon phase.

Naturally, a new couple needed to find time for dates.

So Melanie could completely understand why Daphne would choose to ask him out for lunch.

Everett didn't answer Daphne immediately. Instead, he instinctively glanced at Melanie first.

Melanie blinked, thinking: Why are you looking at me?

She silently gestured at Everett, motioning for him to hurry up and say yes to Daphne.

Unfortunately, Everett misinterpreted her signals, thinking Melanie had something urgent to tell him.

"What? Did you want to say something to me?" Everett asked out loud.

"Everett, is someone there with you?"

"Oh, it's Melanie. I'm in her office right now," Everett answered crisply.

"Oh, I see! That's perfect then. Ask Melanie to come along and eat with us!"
