An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

Chapter 127

The night passed by peacefully.

Natasha enjoyed her cup of coffee at Java Joys as she flipped through pages of documents.

She looked worn out after staying up the entire night.

“Natasha!” Just then, Quentin and Mr. Wangley stormed in through the door.

“What is it?” Natasha couldn’t even be bothered to spare them a glance. She continued to flip through the

documents.

Bang!

A wooden box was rudely slammed on the table.

It opened up to reveal a single white pill in it.

“Check this out. Natasha. Do you know what it is?” Quentin pointed at the pill, and his tone was unmistakably demanding

“How would I know? You tell me.” She sat up lazily.

“Hah! You can’t even recognize the Eternumax?” Quentin looked unimpressed.

“So this is Eternumax. Well, what about it?” Natasha asked, not too concerned.

“What about it?! You have the gall to ask me what about it? I bought this Eternumax from the Hummers! They’ve managed to manufacture it! Are you aware of that?” Quentin raised his voice.

“Oh? So what? Isn’t it only a matter of time?” Natasha couldn’t be any calmer.

“What is this attitude you’re showing? Do you not see the severity of the issue at hand? The Eternumax that the Hummers produced have shown phenomenal results, and many of the rich and powerful have already put in their orders. Its price has sky–rocketed, and they’re now worth a whopping 500 grand per pill!” Quentin

looked exasperated.

“Oh? So?” Still Natasha was unfazed.

“An object is valued in proportion to its rarity. Eternumax is monopolizing the market right now because there are no other medications that can compete with it yet. But once the Hummers start producing it, we will be severely affected!” Quentin rapped sharply on the table.
