Joyce smacked her forehead and said apologetically, “Right, right! I’m sorry. In that case, Mr. Plumlee, could you take us to Mr. Miller so we can thank him personally?”

“That’s right.” Natalie nodded in agreement. It was the least they could do to show Mr. Miller some appreciation.

Mr. Plumlee, however, coughed uncomfortably at their request. “Err… that, Mr. Miller is still busy with other clients. I’m afraid he won’t have time to meet you today. How about another time?”

“Oh. Okay.” Natalie nodded, a little regretful that they wouldn’t get the chance to thank Mr. Miller on the same day.

Joyce chimed in with a sigh of her own. “Guess we’ll have to wait till next time then. But, what about the investment?”

“Mr. Miller has made me in charge of the investment,” Mr. Plumlee said as he held up a finger. “This would be the initial investment amount.”

“Ten million?” Joyce asked.

Mr. Plumlee shook his head.

There was a glint in Natalie’s eye as she piped up, “Could it be a hundred million?”

Joyce hurriedly turned her attention to Mr. Plumlee, waiting to see his response.

 

Mr. Plumlee nodded with a smile and put his finger down. “You’re right, Ms. Smith. It is indeed a hundred million. If that’s not enough, we can always add more.”
