Chapter 309 Begging For Medicine

Chapter 309 Begging For Medicine

Chloe had been with Evelyn for so long that she knew exactly how Evelyn prescribed medicine. Without those four herbs, the medicinal meals at Ms. Carter’s clinic would be impossible to make.

Now that Hannah was offering six times the market price for the herbs, it was obvious she was desperate to get them into the kitchen for her patients.

But even if Hannah offered ten times the price, it wouldn’t matte Chloe already had all the stock of those four herbs in the northern market, and she’d sent people to snap up the southern market too. Soon, she’d have the whole country’s supply in her hands.

If Hannah couldn’t get the herbs, her patients would start to doubt the clinic. That would ruin the Nameless Healer’s reputation, and Chloe’s own medicinal restaurant would skyrocket in popularity.

Chloe felt a wave of satisfaction wash over her as she made the call. “Hey, Steve, how’s the herb hunt going down south?” “No luck yet. Some company called Zirenth Herbs has already snapped up everything in the southern market. I’m trying to negotiate with them to buy out their entire stock,” Steve replied.

‘Zirenth Herbs?

‘Isn’t that the herb company owned by that kid, Joel?’ Chloe thought.

Chloe knew Joel. His dad used to be a herb dealer, and after making it big, he opened a herb company down south. She’d thought about teaming up with Joel to get the southern market, but he was always super close to Hannah. Even though he was a few years older than both of them, he’d always follow Hannah around, calling her “goddess” like her little sidekick.

Chloe was worried that if she reached out to Joel, he’d just tell Hannah everything, and her whole plan would be ruined. So she ended up finding someone else to handle it.

“What’s their asking price?” Chloe asked.

“He was ready to sign for three times the market price, but then he saw the Nameless Healer’s post offering six times the market rate, twice our offer. Now he won’t sell to us,” Steve replied.

Chloe’s brows knitted together. If Joel handed the herbs over to Hannah, all the stock she’d gathered would be for nothing, and her whole plan would go up in smoke.

‘No way!’ Chloe thought.

She couldn’t let Joel give those herbs to Hannah.

Gritting her teeth and stomping her foot, Chloe said, “I’ll pay twelve times the market price. Get me all four herbs-hasma, turtle shell, cuttlefish bone, and white snail shell-from him, whatever it takes!”

“Twelve times? The total for all four herbs in his hands is probably over thirty million dollars. Do you really have that kind of cash lying around?” Steve asked, clearly surprised.

Chloe nearly choked. ‘Thirty million? How many zeros is that?’ she thought.

The Reese family gave her all the privileges of being their heiress, but no actual cash, just a card with a monthly limit of thirty thousand dollars.

“Just pay him a deposit and get the contract signed. I’ll settle the rest within a month,” Chloe said.

Hannah needed those herbs way more than Chloe did. If Hannah was desperate enough to offer six times the market price, Chloe would just go all out and snatch them up for twelve times

That way, Hannah would have no choice but to come crawling to her, cash in hand, begging for the herbs. ‘And that’s when I’ll be raking in the money,’ Chloe thought smugly.

Hearing how determined she was, Steve could only agree. “Alright.”

Just picturing Hannah showing up, desperate and loaded with cash, begging for her help, Chloe was practically buzzing with excitement.

“Beep beep beep”, the alarm for the medicine went off.

Chloe came back to herself, poured the medicine out of the pot and brought it to Mrs. Reese in the living room.

Mrs. Reese had high blood pressure and diabe

“Mrs. Reese, your tonic soup is ready. Drink it while it’s hot,” Chloe said, her tone gentle.

“Alright, dear.” Mrs. Reese accepted the bowl with a pleased look.

Chapter 309 Begging For Medicine

After just a few days of Chloe’s herbal cooking, Mrs. Reese could clearly feel her energy levels rising. Even the Western meds couldn’t get her blood pressure and sugar down, but Chloe’s herbal recipes did the trick, and with zero side effects. Plus, ever since Chloe moved into the Reese family, their stock Hadn’t dipped once.

Especially today, Hannah posted online looking for herbs, but Chloe had already scooped them all up under the Reese name. By market close, Reese Medical’s stock had maxed out at the daily limit.

Mrs. Reese heard that Evelyn Carter was so mad about the whole thing, she actually passed out. That news made Mrs. Reese feel absolutely thrilled, finally, she got her payback.

Because of this, Mrs. Reese was more and more satisfied with Chloe, convinced more than ever that picking her to take Daisy’s place in the Reese family was the best decision she ever made.

“Grandma, tomorrow’s the soft opening of my medicinal restaurant. I really hope you can come and show your support,”

Chloe said.

“Of course, sweetheart. I’ll be there, and I’ll bring my girlfriends along to back you up. I want them all to see just how awesome my granddaughter is,” Mrs. Reese replied, grinning from ear to ear.

“Thank you, Grandma! I’ll do my best. I won’t let you down,” Chloe said, practically bursting with excitement.

Mrs. Reese’s circle was full of wealthy ladies, and if there’s one thing rich people have, it’s health problems. With them as her first VIPs, Chloe’s medicinal restaurant would be set to make a splash in Kinswood.

Meanwhile, at Zirenth Herbs.

In the CEO’s office.

Joel was barefoot, curled up in his big office chair, grinning from ear to ear as he called Hannah. He looked nothing like a CEO, more like a kid chilling at home than some big-shot executive.

“My goddess, you are seriously incredible! I could just worship you! Someone just tried to buy up all the herbs I’ve been stockpiling for twelve times the market price! Twelve times!” Joel shouted into the phone, barely able to contain himself.

He was buzzing with excitement, but all Hannah gave him was a calm, “Oh? And?”

‘Hannah really is on another level. She doesn’t care about money at all, not even fazed by a pile of cash, Joel thought, totally in awe.

“Hehe, I’m way too excited! With a price like that, can I just sell it all? Or are you gonna bump it up again?” Joel asked, grinning.

“Go ahead and sell, just save me a bit. And after you’re done, make sure everyone hears what price you got,” Hannah said coolly.

Joel: “Got it! My goddess, as soon as I finish selling, I’ll personally bring over the herbs you want.”

Hannah replied, “Just ship them, that’s fine.”

“Seriously, don’t be so formal! Let me bring them over myself. It shows I mean it. Plus, it’s been forever since I saw you, and I kinda…miss you.” Joel was about to say.

But before he could finish, Hannah hung up on him.

Joel didn’t care at all, he just kept grinning. ‘That’s just how cool Hannah is, he thought.

*****

The next day.

Chloe was up at the crack of dawn, heading straight to her medicinal restaurant to get everything ready. She could barely contain her excitement, confident that Hannah would have no choice but to come looking for those herbs.

Chloe was certain Hannah would show up today. After securing the southern market last night, Hannah was out of options. She’d have to come to Chloe for help.

This was going to be the luckiest start for her medicinal restaurant’s soft opening.

Right on day one, the Nameless Healer would show up at her door, coming to her for herbs!

Her medicinal restaurant was set up right next to Grace Hospital in a prime location. The place was about two thousand square feet, decked out with an old-school charm that made it and out.

Chloe had already hyped it up on her TikTok and in her new circle of socialites, plus Mrs. Reese was bringing her whole squad of rich girlfriends.

The moment the doors opened, the place was packed and lively even reporters and media showed up to get the scoop.

Chloe was so excited she could barely sit still.

She kept greeting guests, all the while hoping Hannah would walk through the door.
