Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 300

Bill still felt uneasy about dipping into his daughter's savings.

As he pondered his next move, a voice echoed from the doorway, "Big bro, you're out of cash, aren't you?"

Bill looked up to see his brother, Dave, stride into the room. Behind Dave, Bill's secretary wore a look of distress as she followed him in, "Mr. Delaney, you can't just barge in here..."

But Dave cut in, "This is my big brother's company. Why can't I come?"

The secretary looked helplessly towards Bill, unsure of what to do with such an unreasonable visitor, especially confused about the nature of their relationship and whether she should call security.

Seeing the situation, Bill frowned, "Next time someone forces their way in, call security."

The secretary breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, Mr. Delaney."

Dave, trying to lighten the mood, pleaded, "Come on, bro, I'll wait next time, okay? But seriously, are you out of money?"

After sending the secretary out and asking Dagmar to leave as well, Dave took a seat opposite Bill and began, "Bro, Dad and I know starting a business is tough. When we heard your company was having some issues, we got worried. That's why I'm here, to see how you're doing."

He glanced around, "This new office building isn't as grand as the Delaney Group's headquarters. And this office? It's not as spacious as your last one. I heard you're running low on funds, and Dad sent me to bring you back."

Bill replied curtly, "No need."

But Dave persisted, "Come on, we're family. Dad said if your company is struggling, he could allocate some funds to keep you afloat."

Bill looked down at the bank loan documents in his hands. He had picked them up from the bank, intending to apply for a loan. But deep down, he knew that without any tangible results from their research, securing a loan would be difficult. Yet, the bank manager had handed him the form, making it seem like the amount was at his discretion, courtesy of Bill's father-in-law.

But he didn't want to rely on that connection. Starting a business only to lean on his son-in-law for support would not sit right with him. He'd rather use Lorna's savings than take out a loan.
