The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1881
Hearing Anthony's words, Queenie, who already had her face buried in her bowl, nearly choked in shock.
Was this the legendary Anthony? The ruthless, cold-blooded executive who ruled the business world?
How could he act so... submissive in front of Asclepius?
"I know," Queenie said, wiping the corners of her mouth, her voice barely a whisper. "Developing an antidote in such a short timeframe will require a massive amount of manpower and resources."
"But..."
Hesitating, Queenie slowly pulled out her phone and opened her banking app. "I only have fifteen thousand dollars in here right now. Let me give this to you first, and I'll pay the rest once I earn—"
"Tsk."
At the sound, Charlotte leaned back, her eyes heavy with lazy amusement. "The medicine you just took? It cost three million dollars."
Three million dollars?
Queenie's eyes widened, the shock rendering her completely speechless.
She knew it would be expensive, but she hadn't expected it to be that exorbitant.
"Its efficacy is far superior to anything the pharmaceutical conglomerates produce, and it comes with absolutely no side effects," Charlotte added smoothly. "So, the little amount you have right now wouldn't even cover the cost of a basic band-aid."
"If you wait until you earn three million dollars... it'll take you a lifetime."
Queenie fell silent. She couldn't deny the truth.
She was unemployed and currently dodging a massive pharmaceutical corporation. Three million dollars was an astronomical figure to her.
"You can work to pay off your debt."
Picking up her fork, Charlotte casually placed a piece of chicken onto Anthony's plate. "The Institute of Genetic Biology needs people. If you're willing, you can head over there."
The Institute of Genetic Biology?
Hearing the name, Queenie lost all semblance of calm. She abruptly shot up from her seat, her voice trembling. "Asclepius, are you talking about the Institute of Genetic Biology on the Isle of Veil?"
"Is there another one?"
