Chapter 393 I Want To Bring Someone Home
Seeing that Samuel’s eyes were glued on Natalie, Billy cleared his throat. “Sir, it’s time to leave.”
“I’m leaving now.”
“Yeah.” Natalie laughed. “Bon voyage!”
Samuel knew that Natalie loved him but when it came to partings, it was more difficult for him and he wished he could put her in his pocket and bring her along.
Even as he sat in the car, he was still thinking about this.
After some time, he realized how ridiculous his wish was.
Yet, the ridiculous things he had done for this woman did not end with whimsical wishing.
At the Nichols family residence.
Yara was seated at Thomas’ left and she could not contain the glee on her face.
Though it was early in the day, Thomas helped himself to his precious collection of liquor and poured out a glass.
“Yara is indeed my good daughter.” Thomas’ face was radiant and he laughed happily. “It is thanks to you that Dexmed Pharmaceutical can get so much capital from the Bowers family this time. When you were young, the fortune-tellers foretold that you would achieve much. It has turned out to be true!”
Yvonne nodded in agreement, smiling happily. “That’s so true! Yara was born for greatness. We don’t have to worry about her at all!”
Although it was a good thing for the Nichols family to receive a 3 billion investment, Yara was not her biological daughter and so, her happiness was tinged with regret and jealousy.
Melissa was not as eloquent as Yvonne and she did not want to sing praises so, she decided to remain silent.
Yara was not at all bothered if these two were sincere or not.
She took a sip of tea and said, “Dad, Old Mr. Bowers had conditions attached to this investment. I have to be the Vice President of Dexmed Pharmaceutical and lead the R and D team.
These conditions… were not an issue for Thomas.
Both Melissa and Yara were his daughters.
It was true that he had no liking for the Bayer family but Yara was his favorite child among the two.
Nevertheless, for Yvonne and Yara, the conditions meant something different.
This meant that Yara’s ambitions were now shifted to the Nichols family.
In other words, Yara was now competing with Melissa for the inheritance of the Nichols family!
“Yara will be the part of the Bowers family in the future, and Franklin will definitely be the heir of Centurion Corporation when he grows up.” Yvonne said rudely, “Isn’t making Yara the vice president of Dexmed Pharmaceutical unworthy of her talent and capability?”
Melissa added with jealousy, “Yara, the Bowers family will be yours in the future. Surely, you are not hard up for Dad’s small-scale company!”
Yara’s ambition was certainly not to take control of Dexmed Pharmaceutical alone.
In the past, she had wanted to marry Samuel, so Dexmed Pharmaceutical was not important to her.
However, at present, Old Mr. Bowers doubted her skills in medicine and she had promised to take over her granddad’s inheritance. Hence, she had to hold an important position in Dexmed Pharmaceutical.
However, she was not at liberty to reveal these…
Yara sneered, “It does not matter whether the position is redundant or whether Dad’s company is small scale. I am and always will be a part of the Nichols family. What does it matter? Dad has already agreed to my being the vice president. So, what’s the problem? Just think about it. Would Old Mr. Bowers invest three billion in our family’s business without any condition?”
“Yara is my eldest daughter, and it is totally acceptable for her to be the vice president of Dexmed Pharmaceutical.” Thomas took a sip of wine and immediately concluded. “Don’t let me hear about this again! If anyone talks nonsense, I will show no mercy!”
Yara’s eyes narrowed with her victorious smile.
Yvonne was furious at the favoritism that Thomas was showing.
It was not enough for Yara to get into the Bowers family but she wanted Melissa’s portion as well. She was too greedy for words.
Nevertheless, if Melissa could take hold of Yandel, then she was not too far behind Yara.
Yara finished her wine and went upstairs.
Only Melissa, Yvonne and Thomas were left in the dining room.
Yvonne nudged Melissa with her foot, hinting that she should speak up.
Melissa poured some wine for Thomas and spoke hesitatingly. “By the way, Dad, I would like to invite someone over for dinner…”
