From A Prisoner To A Big Short’s Inheritor

Chapter 138

On the other end of the phone, Gracia muttered, “Why did Mr. Santos suddenly change his style? He’s actually going to make a dazzling entrance!”

But, to be honest, she was looking forward to it.

When the official press conference took place tomorrow, the Santos Group would leap to the top of the rankings in Newden, and everyone would be shocked to discover that the CEO of the Santos Group was actually a young man in his twenties.

Even Gracia herself felt like she was in a dream, let alone the others.

Leonard hung up the phone, finished his cigarette, and then stood up.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, another call came in.

“Mr. Santos, it’s me, Barrett. I’ve tested the black ointment you sent, and it really has the ability to rejuvenate aging cells.

“As for the formula, I haven’t fully analyzed it yet, but I’ve got some leads. I believe it won’t be long before we can start mass–producing the black ointment.

“When the time comes, it will surely shock the entire medical community.”

On the other end of the phone, Barrett’s voice was filled with excitement.

Upon hearing this news, Leonard couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

It was easy to imagine the immense wealth that a product capable of extending human life by a decade or even several decades could bring.

The day when the Santos Group would become the most powerful company in Griffinland was not far off.

“Mr. Bailey, I’m counting on you for this,”

Leonard said, taking a deep breath.

However, on the other end of the line, Barrett sounded hesitant.

“What’s wrong?”

Leonard was a little confused.

“Well… We’re running short of funds. Could you provide me with 100 million dollars in support for now?”

“A hundred million? I’ll send you 200 million dollars right away.”

Leonard said generously.

After selling the top gemstone last time, Waylon had given Leonard 420 million dollars. Even after spending a considerable amount on Miraculoberry and other items, Leonard still had over 200 million dollars in his account.

“Alright, Leonard, I’ll do my best to finalize the formula for you as quickly as possible,”

Barrett said before hanging up the phone.
