She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 659

At Melanie's request, Gabriel's jaw dropped. He looked utterly awkward, stammering and completely at a loss for what to do.

This reaction totally baffled Melanie.

Logically speaking, his brother wasn't hideous or unpresentable. No matter how you looked at it, Gabriel shouldn't be reacting like this, right?

"If it puts you in a difficult position, Vice President Whitmore, just pretend I never asked."

Hearing that, Gabriel clutched his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not that it puts me in a difficult position. It's just that my brother... he's an introvert..."

Melanie couldn't tell if Gabriel was telling the truth or just making up a flimsy excuse to brush her off.

However, there was genuinely very little information about this Mr. Whitmore from Stellaris PharmaTech available to the public.

And the CEO himself didn't seem to enjoy the spotlight the way Gabriel did.

So, it was entirely possible that Gabriel was telling the truth—his brother simply didn't like being in the public eye because he was introverted.

Originally, Melanie had hoped to use this opportunity to meet Gabriel's brother, which would have allowed her to dig deeper into the research project from four years ago.

What a shame...

Melanie let out a silent sigh.

A breeze carried the scent of flowers, and she narrowed her eyes, taking a deep breath.

Regardless, she was definitely going to go forward with this new diabetes drug project. When the time came, she would find plenty of opportunities to get closer to Stellaris PharmaTech's core secrets.

It was late at night, and everything was quiet.

Elara Bennett had already settled in Averin, accompanied by Harold, the Bennett family's veteran butler.

"Miss, you've been living here for a few days now. Why haven't you made a move yet?"

Hearing Harold's question, the frustration on Elara's face deepened.

"How am I supposed to make a move?"
