The Hero
Chapter 385 Can't Win Against a Barking Dog
Mikaela was standing at the entrance of the hotel. There were several times he wanted to rush back to the hotel, but his humility finally calmed him down.
She could have disliked Donald and divorced him and indulged herself at the end of her youth with another man, but all of that came with the premise - that is for her to relinquish the "position" of being someone's wife.
Staying in "position" and "working" with another man made her feel humiliated.
Therefore, it never crossed Javier's mind that he not only did not pick up Mikaela with what she said, but also gave her the urge to divorce him.
After picking Renna up and going home, Mikaela gives Donald a job form, which looks hopeful.
When she realized that it was not for the position of chairman secretary, she again kicked Mikaela's shoes.
It was the best he did even Mikaela scoffed, "You should have gone to the football team!"
Donald is dissatisfied and attacks Mikaela.
He felt that Javier should have given him a chance even when he was not able to. He had told Mikaela to tell Javier that he was there to learn.
He wanted to study slowly while being paid hundreds of thousands a year. What's wrong with that? Javier has a lot of money.
When Mikaela found out about what Donald was thinking, her disappointment towards her turned into three words: "You're crazy!"
However, the one word he had in his mind was worse. He wanted to say, "Divorce!"
He had never thought about it in the past, but the idea was born when he heard about changing his surroundings when it was no longer suitable for him. Even when Javier intends for him to feel another man, he is clearly thinking off track.
However, when Mikaela saw the family photos of the three of them on the wall, she held herself back. All that so that Renna can have a whole family.
Even so, the seeds of divorce thinking had already sprouted in his mind…
Donald gave up on working for the Reivaj Group in the end. Not because he wanted to give up. He had asked Mikaela to ask him again. He did not mind being a subsidiary manager, and he could force himself to receive an annual salary of tens of thousands of dollars as well.
This time, Mikaela did not agree to it. “Do not force yourself. Better you get that 1,100 dollars safely.”
Annual salary of tens of thousands of dollars? A man who doesn't even make 15 thousand dollars a year thinks of forcing himself to accept it. If it is very difficult for him to accept it, it is best not to,
Donald argues with Mikaela once again for this, but she refuses to make this embarrassing request again. Donald is so shameless!
As for Javier, he had finished his preparatory work for the bidding.
The morning of the auction was about to begin, he asked Herschel to pick up Oliver before they went to the auction company together. As they chat on the street, Oliver appears angry as Javier nudges Donald.
“Junk. If not for her sweet words back then, how could I have agreed to marry Mikaela to him? I thought he was fine at first, but he ended up showing his tail. Lazy and unmotivated, what he thought about all day was a shortcut.
“His friend had already set up the company and became his boss, but he was still thinking of surpassing his friend in one jump. He's gone crazy!”
Listening to Oliver, the man dislikes Donald and reveals several times Mikaela grumbled about Donald. That nice. That means Javier has a great chance to convince Mikaela and feel himself.
As they chatted in the car and arrived at the auction company, the topic about Donald came to a halt. Javier prepares to enter the company after getting out of the car, but Oliver pulls him from behind.
Someone came out from the next Alphard, looking in his forties and wearing black-framed glasses.
He was not tall, who knew if he was even 1.6 meters tall, but his appearance seemed quite polite, intellectual type. Javier knows this man—Hayden Paige, CEO of Blissful Medical Group. The reason he knew her was thanks to his recent reading.
The man himself was not so bad. He only had a small salesman selling medical equipment in his thirties, but he is now the CEO of a group with assets worth 80 million dollars. As for how he managed to get there, Javier has yet to figure it out.
He's already got a clue about that. It has to do with the recycling of medical waste. The most common example is collecting used medicine bottles, syringes, and more from hospitals and recycling them into plastic beads to be made into plastic items, tote bags, toys, and so on, or even a baby plastic stick.
Think about it. The syringes used to inject AIDS patients are recycled into plastic beads and made into baby plastic toothpicks.
What's gonna happen?
It's really disgusting to make money with a black heart like this, but this is what Hayden did. He even made a 400% profit by selling these cheap plastic beads at the price point of quality products.
Is it hard to wrap someone's head around it? It was a 15 thousand dollar investment and a cycle of production and sales. That one spin earned 60 thousand dollars. Put that 60 grand through another round, and that would be 240 grand. One more spin of 240 thousand dollars would have made 960 thousand dollars! If 960 thousand dollars is put through another round…
Making a profit through profit, the income from such illegal means is huge. If it were not for the very strict supervision of medical waste and its limited number
collection, Hayden could accumulate more wealth faster. Even so, he was already a local rich man by now.
Having Blissful Medical Group is the most tangible reflection of that.
When Hayden got out of his car and saw Oliver, a brilliant smile appeared on his face.
“Oh, Dr. Holmes, it has been a long time since we have met. I remember the last time we met while talking about an acquisition. I think I'm offering 180 grand? I did not expect the Sacred Virtue Hospital to be auctioned by the bank when it was only half a year.
“It really... save money for me!” Hayden looked polite, but he smeared salt on his wound as he sneered with a smile.
If Oliver had met him before he met Javier, he would have left as soon as he saw Hayden. It was different today. He has Javier, the chairman of the Reivaj Group, standing before him today.
Since Javier is here, Hayden's plan will only be undermined by Javier, no matter how smart and positive he is about it. Oliver is so sure about this!
Because of the trust Javier had placed in him, Oliver replied, “Master. Paige, this may not be a theft for you because the auction is not held for you alone. If you have enough funds, go ahead and give it.”
Hayden chuckles. “Oh, you sound very confident, Dr. Holmes. In that case, I'll be a busy person and ask, have you returned your daughter-in-law's money?
“Do not get angry. I've just heard my subordinates gossip that you've asked for money even from your son-in-law.
“Dr. Holmes, it must be hard, and it must be harder to live up to your age. Humility and shame are great. We have to keep it with us!”
Oliver immediately boiled. Asking for money from his son-in-law was the biggest humiliation of his life. Even when he had already paid the man, he was still very embarrassed now that he remembered it.
That's when Javier patted him on the shoulder.
“Come away, Oliver. You will never win against a barking dog. You have to do it in a human way. Just crush the dog's teeth with a stick later and see how he barks.
