Chapter 75: Chapter 75
President Sawyer looked at his son with disdain, "You fool, what’s there to be proud of?"
Those who invested when Paige Sterling pulled them in are all earning a steady profit now.
President Sawyer’s son said, "...Dad, what do you mean?"
"Do you know who developed this robot?"
President Sawyer’s son said, "Don’t tell me it’s that Paige Sterling?"
President Sawyer remained silent instead of answering.
President Sawyer’s son, "...!!"
The same thing happened in a few other places, and as a result, Jared Sullivan ended up hearing so much flattery that his ears developed calluses.
Paige Sterling even gifted a robot to each investor.
When Miles Morgan and his family received the robot, their reaction was the same.
Penelope Thatcher reacted even more strongly; she never thought much about it when she handed those checks to Paige.
But Paige surprised her so much that it almost scared her.
One day, a few ladies came to President Sawyer’s house to play mahjong, and Mrs. Sawyer intentionally showed off her robot, commanding it to serve tea and run errands.
The other ladies were shocked, lost interest in playing mahjong, and immediately asked Mrs. Sawyer where the robot came from.
If such a good product were on the market, they would definitely know about it. Updates are released by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒·𝗇𝗲𝘁
Mrs. Sawyer said, "Oh, I didn’t buy it, it’s a gift from President Sterling’s daughter. You know President Sterling’s daughter, right? She used to be a star in the entertainment industry, the one called Paige Sterling. Then she left the industry, started a company called Penson Technologies, and because our old Sawyer is friends with President Sterling, his daughter gave us a robot..."
Everyone expressed their envy, but Mrs. Quill wasn’t happy.
"Our old Quill is also good friends with President Sterling. Don’t they often drink and chat together? Why didn’t they give us a robot too?"
Mrs. Sawyer said, "I have no idea about that."
The more Mrs. Quill thought about it, the more upset she got. She went home and said, "That President Sterling is too inconsiderate. His daughter gave a gift to the Sawyer family, but not to ours."
That robot looked quite tempting to her.
President Quill, unconcerned, said, "But they did give one."
Mrs. Quill was stunned, "They did? Where is it?"
"I think it was in the car that day. When I went to pick up our son, his friend said he liked it. I thought it was just a basketball, not something valuable, so I gave it to him."
She almost blew up, "Not something valuable? Do you know how valuable that thing is? I saw it at President Sawyer’s house! You actually gave something so valuable to a kid? Are you an idiot?"
President Quill, "...?"
At that moment, President Quill’s phone rang; it was a shareholder in his company, the parent of the kid who took the gift.
"Hey, President Quill, thank you for giving such a precious gift to my son. We feel a bit embarrassed, but since you gave it, we can only accept it."
President Quill, "..."
So what the hell was this thing?
When President Quill went over to that kid’s house and saw the robot, he regretted it deeply.
But since he had given it to them, he couldn’t just ask for it back, right?
The shareholder even thought the robot was bought by President Quill, saying, "President Quill, which company produces this robot? Could you give me the contact info? Several friends of mine saw it and all want one."
President Quill, "...", I also want one, damn it.
President Quill personally went to VastReach Group to find Jared Sullivan. When he entered the office, he saw Jared Sullivan sitting in his office chair, thoroughly enjoying the massage from a massage robot.
There was no need to guess; this was certainly another product developed by his remarkable daughter.
President Quill, envious, subtly hinted that the robot given by Paige Sterling was accidentally gifted to someone else, and he wished for another one.
Jared Sullivan, feeling triumphant, said, "Old Quill, you know it’s not easy to develop this stuff. I only had my daughter give you one because of our good relationship, and now you..."
President Quill immediately replied, "Don’t worry, I definitely won’t take it for free. I’ll pay whatever your niece’s company charges!"
"That won’t work either; the product hasn’t hit the market yet. If you want to buy one, you’ll have to wait until it’s released."
Despite President Quill’s insistence, Jared Sullivan only said: If you want to buy it, wait for it to be released.
President Quill felt miserable, reaching out to touch the massage robot.
Jared Sullivan slapped his hand away, "Don’t touch rashly; this was custom-made for me by my daughter, and if you break it, you can’t afford it."
President Quill, "...", looking at his smug face, "Old Sterling, is the massage really that comfortable? Let me try it too."
To show off, Jared Sullivan let the massage robot give President Quill a try.
Finally, President Quill exclaimed, "Old Sterling, you’ve really got a great daughter."
For wealthy people like them, they’re afraid of not having heirs and go to great lengths for sons.
They used to laugh at Jared Sullivan for only having one daughter, thinking his wealth would have no heir.
Now, it was a slap in the face.
His daughter entered the entertainment circle at fifteen and thrived.
She exited the circle and started her own company for scientific research. One daughter surpassed all other sons combined.
Something others could only envy.
In any case, Jared Sullivan has now become someone everyone in the circle envies.
Many people are inquiring, hoping to make family connections with Jared Sullivan.
Jared Sullivan also wants to choose a good match for his daughter, but what can he do? His daughter already got registered with someone.
Damn lucky Julian Hawthorne!
Meanwhile, at the Morgan family home, ever since Miles Morgan brought back the robot, the Morgan family has been buzzing with lively discussion.
Previously, Dad Morgan and Mom Morgan thought their son was good-for-nothing, just eating, drinking, and playing. But now they suddenly realized he is blessed with unexpected good fortune.
It’s obvious that once such a robot hits the market, no matter how expensive, it will sell well. The millions that Miles Morgan was tricked into investing by Paige Sterling will not only break even but will also continue to earn in the future.
Now, even if Miles Morgan doesn’t get any inheritance from Dad Morgan, he will still be financially secure and might become the most successful among his brothers.
Dad Morgan praised his son thoroughly, while Mom Morgan had other thoughts, "Honey, seeing how excellent our son is, shouldn’t we..."
Before Mom Morgan could finish, Miles Morgan jumped up, looking quite frightened.
"Mom, I beg you, don’t even think about it. Paige is not a woman I can handle or conquer. I’m not worthy of her!"
"Useless, no matter how capable, she’s still just a woman. And you really think she’s that impressive? Isn’t it just because her dad’s backing her up behind the scenes?"
Miles Morgan thought to himself, that’s because you haven’t witnessed Paige’s true abilities. If you had, you’d know your son doesn’t even measure up to a strand of her hair.
Anyway, Miles Morgan might lack in other areas, but he’s pretty self-aware.
Now, the entire circle is filled with curiosity about Penson Technologies, eagerly awaiting its official launch.
