Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Repay Favors?_1

"Ms. Miller, the financial state of the company has been detailed above; if there is no injection of funds soon, not only will we be unable to normally distribute employee salaries, our production line will also be affected, and there is even the danger of a shutdown..."

The head of the finance department had reported on the company’s financial situation with a concerned look in her eyes.

Having been brought into the company by Shirley Miller’s father, she naturally supported Shirley Miller, but simply offering support in attitude was utterly useless; what was needed now was money.

Two hundred and fifty million!

Alexis Vasquez elongated his voice, "Ms. Miller, you had sworn to solve the problems before, yet a week has passed, and it seems you haven’t resolved anything at all."

Rusty Schneider complained, "I said it before, taking on too much can lead to trouble, Ms. Miller, you didn’t believe me, and now we’re all dragged into a pit we can’t climb out of, well, now look."

The other shareholders also echoed one after another, airing various complaints.

"Exactly!"

"Had we not acquired the pharmaceutical factory, none of this would have happened, and now it’s raining even though the roof is leaking."

"Our Miller Group has been developing so well, yet we can’t even secure a loan, Ms. Miller, your capabilities are in question."

"In the end, it’s because of youth. When your lips bear not a single whisker, your matters are not firm."

Once everyone had their share of complaints, Alexis Vasquez spoke up, "Ms. Miller, it’s not that I’m targeting you, but you had promised to assume responsibility if anything went wrong. Now that things have come to this, what are you prepared to do?"

"Resign, Ms. Miller."

Martin Baker, cunning as an old fox, stood up, driving Shirley Miller into a corner with nowhere to retreat with a single sentence, "You had made a military order before; if you couldn’t do it, you’d resign. Now that the company has reached a life-or-death situation, we can’t let you act recklessly any longer; we must be responsible for all the employees of our entire group!"

Seeing Martin Baker come forward, Alexis Vasquez supported him without hesitation, "Right, resign! If you can’t solve the problem, then you shouldn’t sit in that position!"

The room erupted in denunciations as if Shirley Miller was the primary culprit who had caused all the trouble.

Shirley Miller remained impassive, having anticipated this scenario long ago.

If that’s the case, then resignation it is.

She had done her best.

Shirley Miller stood up and said in a deep voice, "Yes, I did say I would solve the loan issue, and if I couldn’t, I would resign. Now that things have reached this point..."

"Creak!"

The door to the conference room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Carson Flores appeared with two middle-aged men at the doorstep.

Shirley Miller was slightly startled. What was Carson Flores doing at the conference room?

And who were these two men?

Tristan Curry, the head of the sales department, frowned and reproached, "Carson Flores, this is a high-level company meeting. What are you barging in for, get out!"

Carson Flores pointed to the man beside him, "I bumped into these two gentlemen outside; they were asking for Ms. Miller, saying they had urgent business. When I learned that Ms. Miller was in a meeting here, I brought them over."

Urgent business?

Martin Baker suddenly felt a twinge of unease and said sternly, "Gentlemen, this is an internal company meeting. No outsiders are allowed to participate. Please wait outside. Whatever it is, we can discuss it after our meeting is over."

The man beside Carson Flores smiled slightly, "I am Cody Mason, the General Manager of Jin Hui Investment Company. I’m here to sign a loan agreement with Ms. Miller, two hundred and fifty million. Once the contract is signed, the money will be transferred immediately!"

Martin Baker’s eyes suddenly widened. What was happening?

Shirley Miller found a loan?

Where did this Jin Hui Investment Company spring from?

Shirley Miller herself was also stunned for a moment because she didn’t know these two individuals, hadn’t had any contact with them, and wasn’t even aware of Jin Hui Investment Company.

Signing a contract?

The money being transferred immediately?

Shirley Miller became suddenly cautious. Could this be another trap?

Was someone taking advantage of her current desperation, about to force her into resigning, pushing her to sign an extremely harsh loan contract?

Shirley Miller hesitated for a moment, but decided to face the situation openly.

"Manager Mason, we haven’t had any contact before..."

Cody Mason smiled, "That’s right, we haven’t been in contact, and you don’t even know who I am. Yet I know you. I’m aware the Miller Group is currently tight on funds and is in need of money for a pharmaceutical factory acquisition. Without this money, the Miller Group will face a severe cash flow disruption and many dangers, so here I am."

Shirley Miller asked, "Manager Mason, why would you want to help the Miller Group? What are your conditions for this loan?"

Cody Mason smiled, "Ms. Miller, I’m not helping the Miller Group, I’m helping you. There are no special conditions for this loan. It’s just like a bank loan. I’ve brought a lawyer with me, and we can sign the contract right away."

Shirley Miller was shocked, help for her?

And the loan was just like one from a bank?

"Manager Mason, could you tell me why?"

Cody Mason explained, "Your father helped me once. Without him, there would be no me today. Regrettably, Mr. Miller passed away at a young age. I was unable to repay his kindness. Now, by helping you, I consider the debt to Mr. Miller from those days as being repaid."

Everyone in the room widened their eyes. There was such a story?

Repaying a favor?

Shirley Miller came to her senses, her heart filling with boundless joy.

The loan had come to her!

Since she had resolved the loan issue, she no longer had to resign!
