Chapter 189 “Forget it. Something cup,” she said coolly.
“What the hell happened?” Henry fumed. “Didn't you say that he adored his granddaughter the most? He'd hand over the distribution rights without a fuss and ree to cancel the investment deal with Holcomb Corporation as long as we threatened him a little.” Her expression darkened. “This matter is already set in stone. It can’t be changed. If we make another move, we'll arouse suspicion from others. All we can do is switch O another project.” “Well, you'd better hurry up and find one! | need to prove my worth with a successful career, or Layla won't givethe tof day!” “Didn’t you brag about how skilled you are with women? | thought you said no woman could resist your charm.

“Of course not! | just need to work on a project to help you achieve your goals. Women these days have becastute. No matter how much of a smooth-talker | am, if | don’t have any accomplishments, it won't fly,” he argued persuasively.
“Besides, it’s not only about winning her over. | also need to get past her parents and relatives. Who am 1 if | just fool around without a solid background?” Of course, she understood the logic behind it all. She had always intended to play the long gto reel them in.
Ivy had always planned for Henry to start a business, but she had been preoccupied with other tasks recently and hadn’t had a chance to arrange 1. it. Now that Henri had brought it up himself, it was indeed a pressing issue.
“Ill sort it out. Just hurry up and win her over!” “I hear you. | won't let her get away.” Sure enough, Sage received a call from Collin. On the phone, he told her that, although the project had been signed over to her, the drug would still be promoted under the nof the research institute-CureX Pharmaceuticals.
Sage readily agreed to this. After all, this matter went much more smoothly than she had expected.

Although Sage understood the investment aspect, she would need a professional team to promote the drug. This wasn’t something that could be done in a day or two.
After conversing with Collin, she called Shane and asked his subordinates to cup with a plan for the promotion of the drug.
“I can assure you that the drug is effective. Professor Braun's team has already tested it on a small scale in several hospitals, and the results have been positive,” she said confidently.
Shane didn’t refute her words. Instead, he asked thoughtfully, “Aren’t you worried that lan might give you a hard time?” “Are you worried?” she asked.
He scoffed. “Me? Worried about him givinga hard time? Is that a joke?” “That settles it, then. We're in this together. If you aren't afraid, why should | be?” Shane chuckled. “Alright, Ms. Joyner. You're really starting to grow on me. | can’t wait for us to make sserious cash together.” “Thanks, Mr. Morrison.” Sage was still upset about the incident at the restaurant last time, and decided to add, “And | hope you won't stir up trouble forin the future.” Shane knew exactly what she was referring to and smirked. “How could that be considered as stirring up trouble? | was just messing with lan.” “I'm sure you think that it would be more annoying for lan because I'm his wife,” she remarked sarcastically.
“Exactly,” he agreed, as if he were oblivious to her sarcasm. “Of course, you should make the most of your current status while you still have it! You won't be able to use it after you're divorced.”
