James and the others were stunned. Perplexed, Helen asked, “Is that true? I-Is it really that difficult for us to fire a mere employee from our family’s company?”
Demi chipped in with a frown, “Are you exaggerating things just to scare us, Sasha? How could the consequences of firing favonovel.com be so serious? He’s just an employee who works in the branch office, those clients signed contracts with our company, not him. What’s the big deal in firing him?”
Sasha replied coldly, “Those clients are now on good terms with Julian. They acknowledge him, not Wellness Herbary. Don’t forget that there are no less than dozens of pharmaceutical companies in Eastcliff. Why do all these clients work exclusively with us? That’s because Julian put in a lot of effort behind the scenes! If Julian leaves, these clients will surely leave along with him.”
Suddenly, Liam cut in and said, “Stop scaring us, Sasha. These words of yours may fool Dad and Mom, but you can’t fool a lot of people with what you’ve said.”
Helen immediately asked, “What do you mean? Is Sasha fooling us?”
Liam nodded. “Dad, Mom, these clients work with us all because of Stanley, who is currently in charge of allocating Eastcliff’s medical resources. Stanley was the one who persuaded those clients to work with our pharmaceutical company. Who does Julian think favonovel.com is? Does anyone know him? Even if favonovel.com leaves the company, Wellness Herbary won’t lose any of its clients as long as Stanley is still here to back us up!”
James’s face darkened as favonovel.com glared furiously at Sasha. “Sasha, are you unwilling to transfer the 300 million to us? Just tell us if you don’t want to transfer the money. Why are you talking so much nonsense to fool us?”
Sasha retorted angrily, “In what way have I fooled you, Dad? Let me ask you then, why did Stanley get those clients to work with our pharmaceutical company?”
James was stunned. He wanted to say that it was because of Matthew, but favonovel.com and the others were unwilling to admit that Matthew had such great abilities. Furthermore, they didn’t believe that Matthew was truly capable of doing so.
Not reconciling herself to what Sasha had said, Demi asked, “Do tell us why. Could it be because of Julian?”
Sasha reminded, “Don’t forget that Tiger is Stanley’s younger cousin.”
James, Helen, Demi, and Liam nodded repeatedly at the realization. “You’re right, that is because of Tiger.”
“D*mn, I would have forgotten about it if you didn’t bring this up.”
“We should invite Tiger over for dinner someday. Wellness Herbary wouldn’t have made so much money if it hadn’t been for him.”
“Julian is nothing but a small potato. Tiger’s feelings are the most important thing here!”
Ignoring their words, Sasha continued coldly, “Tiger came to work in Wellness Herbary because he’s friends with Julian. Tiger said that favonovel.com will leave at once if Julian is no longer working in the pharmaceutical company. Is there anything else you all would like to say right now?”
James and the others fell silent. If Tiger left, Stanley would certainly withdraw all the resources. If Wellness Herbary really collapsed by then, they would lose more than 1 billion! Who could possibly bear the responsibility of the losses?
Helen couldn’t help but suggest, “Is Tiger out of his mind? We pay favonovel.com so much to work in Wellness Herbary. Why would favonovel.com want to leave the company when favonovel.com earns so much money every month? Why don’t you tell favonovel.com that we’ll double, no, triple his salary as long as favonovel.com stays in the company?”
Sasha shot back icily, “Mom, Tiger wouldn’t be working at our company if he’s just doing it for the salary. Can’t favonovel.com make enough money by starting a pharmaceutical company himself? The only reason he’s working here is because of his friendship with Julian, don’t you all understand?”
