Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 61

Justin looked at her, only to see that the young woman, after answering him, had no intention of picking up her cell phone and showing him a photo at all.

"..."

For some reason, he felt a little embarrassed.

At the sight, Melissa, who was next to him, said, 'Are you asking about Cherry? I have photos of her, too! I even took videos!"

She picked up her cell phone after she spoke. Just as she was about to show a photo to Justin, Nora subtly stopped her and said, "Aunt Melissa, things don't seem to be going well for Uncle Simon over there."

Sure enough, it successfully distracted Melissa. She turned to see that Simon and the other party were starting to argue in low voices.

She smiled apologetically at Justin and quickly walked over.

Justin,"..."

He couldn't help but feel that she had done it on purpose just so he wouldn't be able to see the photos.

Wasn't it just her daughter? He had already shown her his son, so what was there for her to be so secretive about?

A hint of a chilly look came over his countenance.

When he saw Nora also giving him a nod and walking over to Simon, he suddenly instructed Sean, "Look up her daughter; surely she isn't that ugly that she

shouldn't be seen in public, right?"

Since she refused to show him her daughter, then he would find out what she looked like, no matter what!

Justin was obviously upset after he said that. Had it been any other time, he would already have turned and left. This time, however, he actually followed them over.

Sean:"..."

By the time Nora came over, Simon already had an awful look on his face. The other party was a man about 40 or 50 years old, and he spoke in a hurtful manner.

"... Simon, it was only on account of the friendship between our families that I've been doing business with the Andersons out of kindness all these years.

"Times are moving on; the drugs produced by the Andersons cannot compare to the Myerses' now. Surely you can't always rely on friendships when doing business?"

Melissa clenched her fists. She turned to Nora and said with disgust, "He's the Deputy Dean of the Traditional Medicine Hall. His last name is Lucas. All the formulas of Harmonia Pharmacy's medicines have been improved by your mom, so they have always been very effective!"

"They used to beg us to sell them our products, and the business dealings between the two of us have always had arm's length transactions. How did it even become them 'doing business with the Andersons out of kindness'?"

Simon took a deep breath and said nicely, "I'm agreeable to your request to terminate our partnership because you've found another supplier. However, the batch of pills you custom-ordered have already been fully manufactured. After signing the contract, surely you have to follow the contractual terms, right?"

Deputy Dean Lucas replied with a smile, "Let's do this instead—I know you're in a bit of a pinch lately. We'll buy the batch of pills at a 60% discount. How does that sound?"

Simon's grip on his champagne glass tightened intensely as he tried his best to suppress his anger. "A 60% discount? We've always given you a low price. You're clearly kicking us when we're down!"

Deputy Dean Lucas patted Simon on the shoulder and said, "That's exactly what I mean, Simon. If you're agreeable to it, then we'll help you out this one time and at least give you a bit of profit. However, what I've heard is that everyone else has returned their goods.

Moreover, Harmonia Pharmacy has barely any clients and its reputation is already a goner now!"

There was sarcasm hidden in his words.

"You—!" Simon was outraged.

The man adopted a casual attitude as if it didn't matter either way. "In any case, do think it over properly. Will you keep the pills with you and let them expire, or sell them at me at a low price..."

He had only just said that when a voice came from beside him. "A 60% discount is too high. How about a 20% discount instead?"

As soon as the person said that, the few of them turned and saw Sheena.
