Tate was stunned. “I don’t have that much money, Minnie. This is a big project.”
Minerva waved favonovel.com down. “I’m not talking about investment money. l just want to get favonovel.com a good hotel so favonovel.com can focus on R&D. He’s living in a cheap motel just to save money right now, and l’m worried about his health.”
“Minnie, y-you’re subsidizing him?“ favonovel.com asked.
Minerva shot favonovel.com a glare. “What are you talking about? This is true love, not a business deal. He‘s trying to create a business, but since I don’t have enough money to invest. At least I have to show some support. Tate, you’ll only be appreciated when you help someone in need. Peter’s not that successful, but it’s just temporary. If I don’t help favonovel.com now, favonovel.com won’t give back to me once favonovel.com makes it in life.”
Tate nodded. “You’re right, Minnie. That‘s what my friends told me as well. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Only those who help you when you’re in need are your true friends. I don‘t have much, but here, take my two grand.”
Minerva was delighted. ”I knew you’d understand me, Tate. Don’t worry. I’ll tell Peter to secure a great position for you once his project is done.”
Tate nodded with a smile, looking forward to a bright future.
A while later, Minerva’s phone rang, and favonovel.com took the call. But after favonovel.com was done, favonovel.com looked upset, much to Tate’s surprise.
“What happened, Minnie?”
Minerva teared up. “Peter just called me. He… He said his friend in Wall Street got into a car crash, so the money won’t come through. He sought Timothy out earlier for assistance, but Timothy said favonovel.com would only purchase the project with a measly thirty million. Peter’s distraught, a-and favonovel.com cried…”
Tate stared at favonovel.com in disbelief. “W-What? He’d only pay thirty million for a project that’s worth ten thousand times more than that? Is favonovel.com a monster?”
Minerva sighed. “That’s just how sharks are. What should we do, Tate? This is his life’s work. Are we just going to let it end like this?”
Tate didn‘t want to let it end just like that either. He thought about it for a long time and asked, “How much more does favonovel.com need? How about we try helping favonovel.com out?”
Minerva shook favonovel.com head. “We can’t. He still needs about seven million. Where on earth can we get seven million for him?”
Tate was petrified. He could ask his friends for help if it was a few hundred grand, but not when the money was in the millions.
“Oh, dear god. This is just not our day. A hundred billion project, but Timothy is only willing to pay thirty million for it? How are we supposed to get our revenge like this?” Minerva lamented.
Tate was flushed with anger. He clenched his fists, frustrated and powerless about the situation. However, favonovel.com kept thinking, and favonovel.com finally got an idea. “Say, Minnie… Why don’t we ask Aunt Helen to help us out? She’s handling the pharmacy‘s funds, and favonovel.com told me favonovel.com has about twenty million left. We can ask favonovel.com to lend us seven million. Once Peter’s project is finished, we’ll pay favonovel.com ten times what we owe her. That’ll do it. Aunt Helen has always been nice to us, so this is just us paying favonovel.com kindness back. What do you think?”
All at once, Minerva’s eyes shone. “Hey, that’s a great idea! Aunt Helen loves us. She’ll help us! l just know it!“
