Romeo's face darkened, and he let out a cold snort before lowering his hand. He knew he couldn't beat Lachlan in a fight; if they got physical, they would surely lose.
"Miranda, we delivered your grandmother's message! You have two choices: either kick this guy to the curb or wait to be kicked out of the Lowe family!" Romeo said to Miranda.
In his eyes, how could Miranda have doubled the profits of Lowe's Pharmaceutical in just two months? So she only had these two options.
Miranda's beautiful eyes flashed with helplessness and confusion. Despite her strong exterior, she was ultimately a weak woman. At this moment, she felt powerless.
The entire Lowe family revered their matriarch and even her own grandmother had given her an ultimatum. What could she do? Who else could she rely on?
Her parents? They hadn't come personally to deliver the message or force her into anything - that was already their biggest "favor."
Could she count on Mason? Although he had some influence in business matters, he couldn't really help much now and dared not go against their grandmother's wishes either.
However, at this moment, a cold and determined voice rang out.
"My wife has a third option! That is to increase the company's profits tenfold within two months! Let you all understand that even if she doesn't marry into a wealthy family, she can still rise with the Lowe family!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.
The next second, Romeo and his family sneered at Lachlan.
It seemed like they had heard the biggest joke in the world.
"I'm laughing so hard! A lowly dog like you doesn't even understand what business is? Your master hasn't spoken yet and you dare to bark!" Harlow mocked bitterly while covering her face.
"I want to see how you can increase profits tenfold in two months!" She continued sarcastically.
"Eliza, Harlow, let's go!" Romeo sneered coldly before leaving with his family.
After they left, Miranda breathed a sigh of relief and her dominant aura dissipated. The next second she sat down on the sofa feeling somewhat powerless.
She looked at Lachlan with bitter laughter in her eyes as she said, "How could I possibly increase profits tenfold within two months? You're just boasting for me to save face."
Miranda seemed to have already imagined how embarrassed she would be after two months. However, Lachlan spoke firmly, "Don't worry; I've got your back. I'll help you."
Miranda paused for a moment, a hint of disdain flashing across her pretty face undetected. She also thought Lachlan was full of it, but she held back from mocking him out loud. After all, he was just trying to comfort her...
However, only Lachlan knew that his words were not just empty talk. If Miranda's company focused on any other industry besides medicine, he wouldn't be so confident. But with even a slight modification to one of the prescriptions in Dragon Emperor's Canon, it could become a best-selling drug or health supplement.
Meanwhile, on the other side...
The Romeo family of three left Imperial View Villa Area with sour expressions on their faces. Harlow especially glared with hatred in her eyes.
"Dad! Mom! That self-righteous bitch Miranda dared to hit me!" Harlow complained indignantly while holding her swollen cheek.
"Don't worry daughter," Eliza gritted her teeth in anger. "That little bitch won't have a good ending!"
Romeo snorted coldly and his eyes gleamed with malice.
"Trying to increase Lowe's Pharmaceutical's profits tenfold within two months? That's just wishful thinking!" Romeo sneered at Miranda. "Not only will she not achieve that, but the company will also suffer losses and even collapse!"
