Sasha felt extremely tired and helpless when she saw the excitement in James’s eyes. She could tell that he had made such a huge fuss just to force her to hand the money over. He hadn’t actually planned to start a fight with Matthew; his intention was just to get her to provide him with the funds.

However, she had no other choice but to give him the money at this point. If she refused to do it, he might actually use the knife to threaten Matthew.

“Put the knife down for now. Since I’ve already promised to give you the money, I’ll definitely stick to my words,” she said quietly.

Demi sneered. “Sasha, you haven’t even provided us with a proper deadline; how can we just believe your words? What if you end up delaying the fund transfer? What will happen to Mom and Dad’s pharmacy then?”

“She’s right.” Helen nodded in agreement and added, “Sasha, if you really want to invest your funds, you have to give us a proper deadline.”

Sasha was trembling with anger at this point. She hissed through gritted teeth, “How can I give you a proper deadline? I have to request 300 million from the Board of Directors first. Then, I’ll need to host a meeting at Wellness Herbary to discuss our investment into your pharmacy—this process will take a month at the very least.”

James immediately shook his head and said, “One month is too long. I’ve already had discussions about renting a location with several landlords; we’re planning to sign the agreement by next week. I can only give you a week at most!”
