"Hehe…You wouldn't know, would you? Miss Hummer is a
noble lady. She doesn't need gems or jewelry. If you truly want to
impress her, you should give her a one–of–a–kind gift. Luminlanth Root
has the ability to retain one's beauty. No woman could ever resist it. I
believe that Miss Hummer would like it!" Julie uttered confidently.
"You're not wrong, but this Luminianth Root costs a fortune, right?"
Florence asked. "Of course! This is an extremely rare item. You won't be
able to buy it without three to five million dollars." Julie nodded.
"What! It's that expensive?" Florence was shocked. "Julie, do you even
have that much money?" "Of course, I don't. But you do! So, lend me a few
million dollars, I'll return it to you next time." Julie requested
without hesitation. Her words stunned Florence. Dahlia and James also
frowned at her words. This cousin of theirs would always borrow money
every time she visits. Last year she "borrowed" a Mercedez–Benz from them
for two days. Until now, she still hadn't returned the car. It seemed
like they will not be getting it back. If they gave her a few million
dollars now, there would definitely be no return as well. "Julie, it's
not that I don't want to lend you the money. A few million dollars is
really too much." After thinking for some time, Florence still refused.
"Aunt Florence, your family owns a business! There's no way you don't
have that kind of money. Or is it that you guys don't want to lend me the
money?" Julie was getting upset. "No, I really don't have that much
money." Florence laughed awkwardly. "If you don't, then Dahlia should
have that money, right? She's the president of Quine Group! I don't
believe for a second that she doesn't have a few million dollars to
spare!" Julle turned to Dahlia as she uttered those words. "The company's
finances are a bit tight at the moment. Every penny counts. I wouldn't
recommend spending the money on such birthday gifts." Dahlia shook her
head lightly. If it was an emergency, she would definitely spend money
without hesitation. But for her situation, she really could not help her
even if she wanted to. "Dahlia! You can't be that stingy? It's just a few
million dollars! It's not like I wouldn't return it to you!" Julie
crossed her arms and said confidently. "After I send Miss Hummer this
gift, I'll become her friend. Then, I'll get a high–
rank position in Hummer Pharmaceuticals. I'll be earning a few million
dollars every year, easy peasy!" "Julie, you must not get ahead of
yourself. It's not that easy to get into Hummer Pharmaceuticals. Never
mind a high–rank position, with your experience, it would be best for you
to get some training in my company." Dahlia tried to reason with her
calmly. "Dahlia, let me get straight to the point. I'm a valuable
graduate of the Ivy League. Everyone wants me. A small company like Quine
Group is not worth my time." Julie mocked. Dahlia was speechless at her
remarks. This cousin of hers was a classic narcissist. No experience and
no skill, and yet she still dreamed about becoming a rich supervisor. She
looked down on almost everyone, and yet she doesn't even have the basics
down. "Alright! Back to the point! Are you lending me the money or not?"
Julie's arms were still crossed in front of her body arrogantly. She
really had no shame as the one who was borrowing money. "No!" James
answered. "Fine! Today I finally get to see what kind of people you guys
really are! Relatives, my ass! You all just abandoned me when I'm in
need. Tomorrow, I will make you pay!" With that, Julie turned around and
stomped away.
