Samantha glanced at Adrian as she spoke.

Mandy heaved a sigh. With her keen intuition, she was able to read the situation.

‘He’s the great legate who’s countless times more powerful than Henry, yet he hasn’t told Ms. Samantha who he really is.”

Mandy smiled and said, “I suppose you could say Henry and I were friends. We worked together in the past and he was very nice to me. So, how could I be ungracious when his son and daughter–in–law need my help?”

In truth, Mandy had a little fling with Henry back then.

Samantha instantly heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. ‘So she’s only being so courteous to me because of Henry.

“Thank you, Ms. Mandy.”

Mandy nodded and asked, “Would fifteen million dollars suffice?”

“Fifteen million dollars?!” Samantha exclaimed in shock.

Mandy was slightly startled before saying, “Let’s go with thirty million then.”

“Thirty million dollars?!?!?!” Samantha was even more shocked.

Confused, Mandy wondered why thirty million dollars was still insufficient for Samantha.

Just as she was about to increase her offer, Adrian stepped in and said, “That’s too much. Bailar won’t be able to handle receiving that much money. Let’s go with four million and five hundred thousand dollars instead, Mandy.”

Mandy smiled when she heard this.

Meanwhile, Samantha said, “Ms. Mandy, you offered me so much more than what I was going to ask for. My target is only

three million.”

“Sure thing, let’s go with that number. I’ll put in a request for that amount right away, but feel free to come back to me if it’s not enough,” Mandy said.

“Okay. Thank you, Ms. Mandy.”

Mandy nodded and looked toward Adrian, wanting to see whether he had any comments.

Adrian gave her a slight nod, allowing Mandy to leave a sigh of relief.

With a smile, she said, “I’ll get right to it then. Please return to your company and allow me some time. I’ll have the money transferred to your account very soon.”

‘She’s already giving me the loan? Just like that?‘ Samantha thought. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Feeling like she was about to faint, she said, “But Ms. Mandy, we haven’t gone through the procedures yet. Are you really able to give me the loan already?”

Smiling, Mandy replied, “Henry didn’t ask me to go through any procedures when he gave me a loan in the past, so I’m extending the same gratitude to you by giving you a personal loan. You can pay me back whenever your company starts making a profit.”

Samantha was over the moon when she heard this and subconsciously decided that Mandy was a good person. She stood up and shook Mandy’s hand as she excitedly said, “Thank you so much, Ms. Mandy. I’ll be sure to pay you back when I can. I promise!”

Samantha’s eyes brimmed with tears as she spoke.

“This is the first time someone’s been so nice to me. Others have only trampled all over my dignity. Ms. Mandy’s the only one who ever treated me like an actual human being.‘

With a subtle smile, Mandy said, “Please, Ms. Samantha, there’s no need to be so cordial with me. If you don’t mind, how

about you call me Mandy and I’ll call you Sam from now on?”

“Sure. Thank you, Mandy.”

“That’s the spirit. All right then. How about we grab something to eat? My treat,” Mandy asked.

Samantha was under the impression that Mandy was being so nice to her on Henry’s account. But in truth, if Adrian had not been here, Samantha probably would not even remember who Samantha was.

In fact, Mandy considered it a huge honor to be able to treat the legate to a meal.

But before Samantha could answer, Adrian stood up and said, “That won’t be necessary, Mandy. You must be busy, so we

won’t keep you any longer. How about you have Sam take you out for a meal when you’ve got time instead? Thank you for your offer though.”
