“What’s with his attitude?” Lily muttered. “Does he think he’s better than us?” Lily, Said in disdain, was not even welcoming but was also not showing an attitude that of a businessman on the contrary he was an arrogant man filled with attitude.
Iff it wasn’t for Ethan Lily really would have slapped this man Very early on in the conversation.
While Lily was thinking that, Ethan was too excited to even care but even then he comforted Lily.
“He’s probably just busy,” Ethan said dismissively. “One month… That man is going to develop revolutionary retinal iris technology in just a month. He must be under a lot of pressure.”
Lily nodded slowly. That made sense.
He turned back to Lily, his expression softening.
“Lily, I won’t forget what you did for me today,” he said sincerely. “You trusted me, and I’ll make sure you never regret it.” He squeezed her hand tightly. “One month from now, I’ll return this investment—no I will return double of this investment.”
Lily’s smile grew even brighter upon hearing those caring words from Ethan Money wasn’t that important for her as much as Ethan.
“There’s no need for that…” she said, shaking her head. “…What’s mine is yours, Ethan.” She leaned closer, her voice soft and affectionate. “Besides, this money was from my brother anyway. It was just sitting there, doing nothing.”
Her expression darkened slightly.
“Wouldn’t it be so much better if you used it to destroy him?”
Ethan’s smirk returned.
“Alright, Lily.” His eyes gleamed with cold determination. “One month from now, I’ll make sure Alex regrets ever crossing me.”
Lily’s heart swelled with joy.
‘Not only did I help Ethan today,’ she thought excitedly, ‘but our relationship has also taken another step forward! This is perfect!’
With that, she nestled into his embrace, and the two of them walked out together, holding each other close.
Meanwhile their comradeship was happening in the room, Liam wasted no time. The moment he stepped outside, he pulled out his phone and dialed Alex’s number.
As soon as the call connected, his voice was calm as he delivered the good news..
“Sir, everything went exactly as you predicted everything,” he reported. “They signed the profit-sharing contract, and the full amount has been transferred into your account.”
On the other end of the line, Alex let out a low chuckle. “Good work,” he said, his voice filled with satisfaction and amusement of getting the predicted outcome.
Liam could almost see or more like imagine Alex smirking through the phone.
“For now,” Alex continued, “forget about everything else. I want you to focus entirely on your research.” His tone became sharper, more commanding. “Budget is not an issue. Spend whatever it takes.”
Alex then stopped in the middle as he delivered the last sentence. “I want results in one month.” Liam said in a calm voice it wasn’t like he was threatening him but more like encouraging him.
“Understood, Sir!” The moment the call ended, he took a deep breath, then clenched his fists.
There was no time to waste. From this moment on, he would dedicate everything to his research. No distractions. No delays.
One month. That was all the time he had to deliver results. Although he doesn’t know why Alex was so sure of him that he can finish his research in a month.
But he didn’t think much about it, Alex had said that just put every effort he can into it and… results will come…
…..
Timeskip:
A Month Later:
Time flew by in the blink of an eye.
On the very last day of month, after working tirelessly for an entire month without rest, Liam finally gets out from the research lab. His body ached from exhaustion, but his eyes shone with an indescribable excitement.
The first thing he did was pull out his phone and dial Alex’s number.
The call barely rang twice before Alex picked up.
“Sir…” Liam’s voice trembled with excitement the joy of finishing his research… the joy of being able to do that, “I did it! The retinal iris technology is complete!”
For a brief second, there was silence on the other end.
Then Alex chuckled, his tone pleased. “Good Liam. Congratulations! You’ve exceeded my expectations.”
Liam let out a breathless laugh, his heart still pounding from the thrill of success of his research. “You know, when you first told me I would crack this in a month, even I didn’t believe it myself. But somehow, you were right.” His voice carried a mixture of disbelief and admiration. “I don’t know how you saw it coming, Sir, but you did. Thank you for giving me a chance.”
Alex’s voice remained calm. “Dont be thankful to me that much Liam… yes it’s true that I gave you a chance… but remember that it wouldn’t have been possible without you… Because I knew your potential even better than you did.”
Liam clenched his fist. “Not only did you take care of my mother, giving me the peace of mind to focus entirely on my research, but you also gave me the chance to complete my lifelong dream.” His voice thickened with emotion. “Sir… you’ve given me everything. If anything… I owe you my entire life.”
Alex chuckled again. “I don’t need your gratitude—but only your results.”
Liam straightened, his resolve hardening. “Understood. The technology is stable. I’ll run final tests tonight to ensure everything is perfect.”
“Good,” Alex said. “If the tests confirm stability, we are going to hold a press conference tomorrow.”
“Understood, Sir!”
That night, Liam worked overtime, conducting a full-scale test on the retinal iris technology.
By the time dawn broke, all results confirmed one thing—the technology was flawless.
Without hesitation, Liam immediately arranged for a grand press conference.
The moment JoySync Company publicly announced the event of the gathering, the entire business world of City was thrown into a crazy frenzy.
Countless corporations and entrepreneurs turned their attention to the mysterious company.
