Chapter 42 After slapping once, there's still another slap

After hanging up the phone, Zak's brow furrowed tightly, unable to hide his disappointment.

Beside him, Scarlet sneered. "I thought he was really something special, but it turns out he's just another greedy guy. He only wants to use your connection to make money for himself! So disappointing!"

The wealthy heiress shook her head and spoke with a heavy dose of disdain towards Lachlan.

"I never expected Lachlan to be so desperate for success! He wants me to promote his new blood clotting medicine in the military?" Zak shook his head as well, now having a much lower opinion of Lachlan.

"Dad, don't help him! Hmph!" Scarlet pouted her lips.

"Let's wait and see. He said he made a sample that I can try out. If it works okay, I'll turn him down. But if it actually works well... I might give him some help as a favor.” Zak spoke calmly.

"Hmm... let's see the sample first before making any decisions. I don't believe his medicine could work better than what we already have in the military." Scarlet sounded unimpressed.

Meanwhile on Lachlan's end, after hanging up the phone call with Zak, he also sensed an attitude shift from Zak towards him.

"Ah... the more you use favors from people like this guy and Zak, the less they're worth.”

He shrugged off his change in demeanor without much concern since he didn't expect anything intimate or personal from him anyway.

"Let's just use up these favors and move on,” Lachlan thought to himself, determined to help Miranda through her troubles. Just then, his phone rang and he recognized the number with a slap to his forehead. He had almost forgotten about this.

"Hello? Miss Bates?" he answered, trying to sound casual.
