“No problem,” Cameron caid.
The receptionist stood by nervously.
David said, “This is Mr. Wallace. Make sure everyone knows him, No appointment needed for him next time
The receptionist nodded repeatedly. “Yes, Mr. Tucker.”
David gestured. “Shall we go to your office, Mr. Wallace?”
He led her to the top floor-the chairman’s office, a spacious 80-square-meter suite.
Cameron looked around the empty room. “Is this your office?”
David said, “No, it’s yours”
Cameron shook her head. “Mr. Tucker, you’re the public face of Aurevia Biotech. You don’t need to reserve a space for me. I won’t be here often.”
David didn’t respond.
Cameron said, “Repurpose this room for something else.
David nodded. “Alright, as you wish.”
He then took her to his own office, smaller but still spacious.
David poured Cameron a coffee and updated her on the company’s progress.
“All permits and licenses are sorted. Researchers and production staff are in place. Our first batch of drugs should be ready by mid-next month. Now it’s about sales-I plan to hire experienced reps to expand our channels quickly.” His eyes lit up as he spoke.
Cameron nodded, “You focus on production. I’ll visit my roommate’s father in a few days-he’ll be our first client”
David asked,
“The Moore family you mentioned before?”
Cameron nodded.
David exclaimed, “if we land the Moores as a major client, our company will make a name for itself in no time!”
“Make a name?” Cameron smiled.
“What’s wrong?” David asked, puzzled.
Cameron said, “Mr. Tucker, why do you think i started thin pharmaceutical companyl

Cameron nodded. “True, but their sie plenty of industries that Why this one??
David shook his head.
Though only 18, Cameron seemed more mature than he, a man in his 30s. He couldn’t read her
Plus, he’d only recently learned at 1 at the hospital that Cameron was a girl.

Cameron just smiled. To her, it was about a challenge. After living over a thousand years, she felt dull about most jobs.
She said, “Take me to the research lab.”
David stood up quickly. “Okay, Mr. Wallace. This way.”
Cameron spent the entire day at the company and had lunch in the cafeteria.
Cameron said, “Mr. Tucker, the lunch is too simple. Let’s add fruit and yogurt for everyone after the meal.” She knew that improving benefits was key to boosting employee efficiency.
David looked hesitant and said, “Mr. Wallace, the company has just started, and expenses are already high.””
After thinking, Cameron said, “I should be receiving three million dollars soon. I’ll transfer it to you as soon as it arrives.”
She temporarily couldn’t return the money to Bradley.
David said, “Thank you, Mr. Wallace.”
After all, Cameron was just a newly adult girl, and all the financial pressure was on her. David felt sorry for her but couldn’t help much-his only role was to control costs.
“I’m fine,” Cameron said. “We each have our roles. You do your job, and I’ll do mine!
David nodded firmly. “Mr. Wallace, I won’t let you down”
Cameron smiled. “I believe you.”

Before the SAT, he’d spent all his time studying. Now that it was over, he felt lost
Elijah didn’t know what to do with himself.
Seeing his gloomy expression, Jack suggested, “Mr. Moore, why not invite your classmates over?”,

Jack nodded with a smile. “Yes Dea’t you have a classmate you get along with invite him treet, or p trips? You could travel together”
Elspether. Don’t young people the graduation
Elijah was unsure about that
Cameron hard to work during the summer, so she wouldn’t go on a trip, but maybe she’d agree to a meal at Moore Manor
Just as he thought this, his phone rang
He took ook it out and saw a message from Cameron.
Elijah’s eyes lit up. He held the phone and went upstairs.
Cameron: Elijah, what are you doing”]
Elijah: [Watching a boring TV show. What about you?]
Cameron: [I just finished eating and am now lying on the sofa.)
Imagining Cameron sprawled on the sofa, Elijah couldn’t help smiling.
Cameron: (Elijah, remember you said you’d help me with something?)
Elijah: de.
Cameron had mentioned starting a pharmaceutical company and needing Elijah to introduce her to Thomas.
Cameron: [When is your dad free? I’d like to visit him.
Elijah: [My dad gets home late every night. I’ll schedule a time later and let you know ]
Cameron: [Great, thanks so much)

Cameron: [We’re good friends-no need for formalities
Elijah [Your pharmaceutical company is up and running so quickly?
Cameron: [Yes, I visited today and it looks good. That’s why I want to discuss cooperation with your dad.
Elijah: Cameron, be prepared. My dad is very strict. With your company just starting, I’m worried he’ll be hesitant to cooperate.]
Moreover, the Moore family’s hospitals had fixed partners for decades. After replacing the unethical Young family, new companies had already filled the
