Chapter 107 One-Sentence Matters
"Yes, Lachlan, we're all family! Can you... help us out?" Ellie asked with a thick skin.
Hearing Celine and Ellie's request, Cannon and Daniel both looked at Lachlan eagerly.
It wasn't easy to make a monthly salary of 5 thousand these days. If he lost his job just like that,Daniel would be heartbroken.
"Bro, you have a big influence! I was wrong before. Don't worry about it," said Daniel with a red faceas he came over to smile apologetically.
Watching Celine's family act so subserviently in front of them after showing off their superiorityearlier made Cara and Emmanuel feel smug.
Lachlan was really making them look good.
"Well... since we're relatives, I can't argue with someone younger than me. Lachlan, could you helpthem plead?" Cara smiled graciously and expressed her generosity towards the situation.
Most importantly though was the fact that Celine's family had come begging for their help now. It feltgreat for Cara to have the upper hand for once.
"Thank you! Thank you Mrs. Lowe! Thank you Bro..."
Daniel's face immediately filled with gratitude upon hearing this.
"Call Mr. Atkinson yourselves, I don't have his number," Lachlan said casually.
"Uh..." Daniel was taken aback by this statement.
The entire Celine family looked at Lachlan with a strange expression, and a few doubts arose intheir hearts.
Could it be that Lachlan didn't even have Monty's phone number?
Their relationship seemed to be nothing more than that.
He had previously given Lachlan respect by letting Daniel go, and now he was asking him to bringDaniel back?
Would that even work?
After dialing the number, Daniel still handed the phone to Lachlan.
"What are you doing?! Do you still have any shame left…"
Monty picked up the call only to start cursing right away upon seeing it was from Daniel.
"It's me, Lachlan!" However, before he could finish speaking, Lachlan calmly spoke up while puttinghim on speakerphone mode without any warning.
"Huh? Mr. Willis, is that really You?! I…I wasn't cursing at you sir! I didn't know it was you calling."
Monty sounded shocked as well as terrified after hearing what happened next from an unexpectedsource such as lanchan himself.
Upon hearing Monty's attitude, Daniel and Celine's family looked at each other in confusion.
Cara and Emmanuel exchanged a glance, their faces beaming with pride and satisfaction.
"It's okay! You see, nobody introduced him to me earlier so I didn't know. It turns out that Daniel isthe boyfriend of my wife's cousin, so we are somewhat related."
"What about keeping his job?" Lachlan asked.
"Uh..."
Monty paused for a moment, then quickly smiled and said, "I see! Since he has some connectionwith Mr. Willis, then I'll let him continue working under my supervision."
"In the future, I will take care of him more."
"Okay, thank you!" Lachlan said lightly.
"No problem, no problem, haha..." Monty was full of pleasing smiles.
After hanging up the phone, Lachlan returned the cellphone to Daniel.
At this moment, Daniel, who had just been showing off in front of Lachlan with a fierce and arrogantattitude, received the phone with both hands in a respectful manner.
"Thank... Thank you, bro! I never expected that your words would be so effective! Mr. Atkinsonseems to listen to and follow your every word!" He was really shocked.
Just a casual remark from Lachlan and his job with a monthly salary of 5, 000 was back?
Not only that, Monty also said that he will take care of him more in the future.
Just because he had a slight connection with Lachlan that was not even significant, did it mean heshould be implicated?Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Celine, Cannon and Ellie all showed surprise and looked at Lachlan with grateful yet embarrassedeyes!
Lachlan didn't have Monty's phone number, but Monty still showed so much respect towardsLachlan.
What did this mean? It meant that Monty was unilaterally trying to please Lachlan.
Lachlan didn't have Monty's phone number, it seemed he simply didn't care enough to save it!
Cara and Emmanuel were both grinning from ear to ear at the moment, they couldn't be morepleased with themselves.
Why was there such a big difference between son-in-laws?
In just that moment, Mason finally finished arranging his mother's birthday banquet and entered theprivate room with a few waiters following behind him.
"Oh? Antie, uncle? What brings you here?" Mason exclaimed.
"You little rascal, you finally showed up! Celine and her family came to celebrate my birthday, andby the way, they need a favor from your brother-in-law. Isn't that right, sister?" Cara said with aflushed face.
"Yes, that's right!" Celine laughed awkwardly.
"Haha, Auntie, you know how amazing my brother-in-law is?" Mason responded with a casual laughat the comment.
Hearing this, Celine and her family were surprised once again. Mason was known for beingrebellious and difficult to control, yet he praised Miranda's chosen husband so highly? This son-in-law was truly one of a kind.
That evening in Villa A of Emerald Green Estates, Lachlan held Nora's small hand as Albie and hisson Dylan followed closely behind.
Two days ago they obtained the Dragon Marrow Herb and Lachlan had started refining the"Dragon's Blood Pill". Today it would finally be completed.
"Albie, did you call on others to join in boycotting Lowe's Pharmaceutical with you?" Lachlan askedcasually while walking towards the house in the courtyard.
"Yes Mr. Willis! I just returned from Yeginia two days ago. If I had known that Ms. Miranda and herfamily were kicked out of the company earlier on then I would have boycotted them already!" Albieexpressed his dissatisfaction for Lachlan.
Lachlan shook his head nonchalantly, "Thank you for your kindness but there is no need for that. Ifyou boycott Lowe's Pharmaceutical then 'Love Light', which is a special drug used to treat leukemiapatients will stop production too! What about those leukemia patients who are waiting desperatelyfor help?"
If Lachlan wanted to use this tactic against Romeo, then he would have informed Albie beforehandbut he didn't because he believed many leukemia patients were counting on 'Love Light' to savetheir lives.
Although Romeo and Victoria were hateful people, Lachlan didn't want to indirectly harm so manypeople because of personal grudges.
As soon as these words fell out of his mouth though, Albie coldly snorted with an angry expression,"Mr. Willis! You may have great vision but do not forget that Love Light capsules are now priced sky-high! After Ms. Miranda resigned from management at Lowe's Pharmaceutical they signed newcontracts with other agents."
"The factory price of Love Light capsules is 1 thousand per box now! Because retail prices are nolonger limited by law, it has been sold at two or three times more than its original price inpharmacies or hospitals!"
"Families who could afford it turned to other effective drugs instead."
"And those who can't afford it still can't get the medicine! Not only Love Light, but Lowe's GoldenWound Medicine and two other new drugs have also doubled in price!"
As soon as the words fell, Lachlan's face darkened instantly, his eyes flashing with intense anger.
What?
The "Love Light" he had developed had now fallen into the hands of Romeo and others, and hadbecome an outrageously priced drug without conscience!
