She Left, She Thrived, She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 82

"What?"

Knowing Melanie would be shocked, Emilia couldn't help but cackle.

"Did you think only your classmate could message that pharmaceutical genius? Don't you think Evelyn has a lot more pull than your classmate?"

Looking at Emilia's gloating face, Melanie frowned.

"How could that mysterious pharmaceutical genius possibly agree to be Evelyn's consultant…"

"And why not!"

Emilia threw her hand up, pointing behind her.

"See for yourself. The entire company is going all out to develop the new product line. The purchasing department has already sent out the orders, and the sales, marketing, and advertising departments are all working in full support. The Hale Group has really bet the farm on this one…"

"If you ask me, you should just resign now and not drag us down."

Seeing Melanie's expression grow more and more somber, Emilia crossed her arms and shifted her posture.

"I'm just saying this for your own good. It's better to resign now than to be fired after Evelyn delivers results."

Before she had even finished speaking, Melanie spun around and strode quickly out of the office.

Emilia immediately called out to the surrounding colleagues.

"Come and see! Ms. Royce is running off with her tail between her legs!"

Melanie made a round through the various departments before leaving the Hale Group.

Emilia hadn't been lying.

Every department in the company, big and small, was busy with the new product line.

While driving, Melanie called Daphne.

"Close up the shop for the day. I'm taking you somewhere great!"

From the sound of her voice, Daphne knew Melanie was in a particularly good mood.

"My lady, I'm not from a rich family like you. I have to open my club to make money."

Hearing this, Melanie deliberately kept her in suspense.

"Oh? So you're saying I'll have to go to Calyon's Velvet Ember Lounge all by myself, then? You won't regret it, will you?"

Before she could finish, Melanie heard Daphne shouting on the other end of the line:

"We're closed for the day! Everyone gets paid as usual."

Melanie first drove to the Eclipse Noir Club to pick up Daphne, then got on the highway.
