Chapter 50
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage
Moreover, Henry had taken the pill and was fine. There was no faking that.
Lyndon then asked, âAnd what do you intend to do with it, Miss Lane?â
Helen smiled faintly. âIâd like to give it to you, Mr. McCoy.â
Lyndon was immediately waryânothing came for free, and would Helen give him such a miraculous pill?
âAnd do you have a condition, Ms. Lane?â he asked. âOr perhaps you need a favor?â
âIn reality, Lane Holdings doesnât have that much capital available,â Helen said bluntly right then. â Now that weâve secured the West City project, we are in need of copious amounts of building materials. Iâm hoping that you would grant us some rebate, Mr. McCoy. In turn, we will be using your building materials exclusively with the West City Project.â
âI can grant you another ten percent rebate on top of all current rebates,â Lyndon said.
âThirty,â Helen said sternly.
âTwenty.â
âTwentyâfive,â Helen said. âMr. McCoy, this is a longâterm project. In fact, youâd earn even more once the development of West City finishes.â
Lyndon frowned in thought.
At the moment, Lane Holdings had the Turnbullsâ backing, which made them a rising star.
A longâterm partnership was ideal, and there was the enticing Ichor Pill on top of thatâ¦
Gritting his teeth, Lyndon nodded. âTwentyâfive it is.â
Helen smiled in acknowledgement. âIn that case, the Ichor Pill is yours.â
Lyndon promptly picked it up and asked in curiosity, âHow do I take this? Is there anything to be careful about?â
Gina shook her head repeatedly. âAbsolutely notâyou can just consume it. My fatherâinâlaw recovered in less than thirty minutes after taking it.â
Lyndonâs gaze was ablaze at her words.
His kidney failure had plagued him for yearsâtruly, one would never cherish their good health until they lose it.
And he had certainly learned his lesson.
Beside him, Roco tried to stop him.
The pill was never checked, and it was handed to Lyndon without an ounce of solemnity. What if something happened after he took it?
However, Lyndon could not wait at all.
He popped it into his mouth and swallowed it right then!
Rocco was left raising a brow. âDad, arenât you being impatient?â
Lyndon raised a hand to silence him while trying to extend his senses over his body to find any changes.
âSo? How are you feeling, Mr. McCoy?â Helen asked confidently.
âNothing,â Lyndon replied, frowning as he did not feel himself healing.
âHuhâ¦â Gina quickly came up with an explanation. âThereâs no way it would work immediately.
Tomorrow, maybe?â
Lyndon thought it was reasonable, but just as he was about to get up, the world suddenly started spinning around himâ¦
He collapsed to the floor right then and convulsed repeatedly!
âDad! What happened?!â Rocco was stunned, but soon leapt up to grab Lyndonâs jaw in case he bit his tongue.
At the same time, he cried, âHelp! Someone get a doctor!â
Helen and Gina were left gaping. They had never expected that!
âUh⦠IâIâm sorry, but weâre going now,â Gina stammered, intent on fleeing.
Rocco bellowed at them right then, âStop! Did I say you can leave?!â
