Golden Palm Tech.
After Sarah tearfully told Alexa about the situation, Alexa's face turned unusually grim.
"I don't have that kind of money to give you back." Alexa's voice was icy, "All the money has been spent. You can ask our finance department if you don't believe me. See if there's 2 billion left in the company accounts."
Sarah took a deep breath, her voice frosty, "Alexa, the gun isn't held to your head, so of course, you can say you have no money. But if you were in my shoes, what would you do?"
Alexa snapped back, "I wouldn't be as foolish as you. Can't even hang on to your own hard-earned money. If you knew you couldn't keep it, you should have taken the 2 billion and run away."
"When you were begging me to invest in your company, you didn't have this attitude." Sarah's heart was ablaze with anger.
Violette gave her only three days. She had to come up with 2 billion within three days. She didn't want Elijah to find out the truth. If he found out, it wouldn't just be about returning the money.
"What's the point of telling me all this?! If I had the money, I would give it back to you. You think I'm intentionally making things difficult for you?" Alexa could see Sarah's cheeks were flushed with anger, her emotions teetering on the edge. If she continued to argue with Sarah, it could escalate into a disaster.
"Sarah, why don't you see how much your boyfriend can contribute? I'll call the finance department to see how much the company can spare. Is that okay?" Alexa's tone softened.
Tears glistened in Sarah's eyes, "Kaleb is useless. I'd rather earn the money myself than rely on him. Just call the finance department."
Alexa took a deep breath, picked up the landline phone, and dialed the internal line for the finance department. The call was answered quickly, and she asked, "How much money can you spare right now?"
"Ms. Alexa, how much do you need?"
Alexa glanced at Sarah and mumbled, "2 billion."
