The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1045

"Claire, I'm starting to suspect that formula doesn't belong to your mentor at all. Are you sure it isn't yours?"

"I apologize for the prejudice I showed earlier regarding your age."

"You are truly brilliant."

Claire smiled. "The formula really did come from my mentor."

"The Carter family were historically physicians to royalty. They passed down countless secret remedies."

However, Claire had significantly modified it.

Left untouched, the required medicinal ingredients would have been astronomically expensive, far out of reach for ordinary consumers.

Not only were they expensive, they were incredibly rare. Mass production would have been physically impossible.

Claire's altered formula was essentially an accessible dupe for the royal scar treatment.

"That's incredible," Julian marveled.

It also dawned on him that families with that kind of historical lineage could sell just one formula and live in luxury for the rest of their lives.

He couldn't imagine how much equity Claire held in Owen's company.

Since they were family, their partnership was practically cemented in stone.

Julian's vision of Luminate's future solidified.

He made a mental note to pull his team aside later and read them the riot act—they needed to put their heads down and work.

Sticking with this company was the absolute smartest move.

Anyone who lacked patience or got lured away by competitors would be making the mistake of a lifetime.

Someone at the party was livestreaming, with Owen's explicit permission.

He was planning on dominating e-commerce, so building Luminate's official social media presence was priority number one.

That was why cameras were rolling at the celebration.

—Wait, what kind of stream is this? Is that Oakley?!

—Oakley is devouring that food. Is the catering really that good?

—If the person above knew where this was, they wouldn't be asking that.

—Where is it? Educate this broke peasant.

—Ridgeview Resort. Literally the most exclusive venue on Ridgeview Pass.
