Chapter 196

What a great voice.

Iris, this name, when he said it, sounded like he was teasing on purpose, gently plucking at Iris’s heartstrings.

She glanced at him, then turned her head to look at the sunshine outside the window, and said, “The weather is really nice today.”

***

Last night, Iris had a video call with Zayden and Bernard, the current CEO of Powell Pharmaceuticals.

Bernard met Iris for the first time, and it was also the first time he saw

her.

When Iris showed up on the video call, he was totally confused and had no idea what was going on.

Until then, Zayden introduced him by saying, “Iris, my boss.”

“Mr. Winston, nice to meet you. Didn’t scare you, did I?” Iris smiled at the stunned Bernard on the screen and spoke to him.

Bernard was stunned for a full five seconds, then his face was still full of disbelief.

He couldn’t believe it and went to see Zayden, asking, “Mr. Knighton, what did you just say? Did you say that the lady who was in the meeting with us is your boss?”

He always knew, Zayden was his boss, and also a big shot in the global

investment world that few can surpass.

But I never expected that behind the big shot, there was still a boss.

Iris heard that, smiled and said nothing.

Zayden took a glance at Iris and smiled, “Yeah, you heard right. Iris is the real boss of Powell Pharmaceuticals, and my boss too. I’ve been working for Iris all along, following her instructions.”

His words undoubtedly put Iris on a pedestal.

Iris chuckled, “Mr. Winston, you can believe half of what Zayden says. He’s not just working for me, he’s my money printer and money bag. He not only manages my money, but also makes money for me. I can’t do without him.”

Watching them interact so happily and intimately, Bernard gradually understood and realized. Finally, he asked, “Mr. Knighton, so, the wealth managed by you and your father belongs to Ms. Aguilera?”

“That’s not true,” Iris replied with a smile before Zayden could speak, “Zayden and Merlin are very wealthy, so they may not have less money than me.

Bernard looked at the two of them, feeling a wave of shock and awe in his heart, still stunned and speechless.

Zayden looked at Iris, just smiled, didn’t say much, and then said to Bernard, “Mr. Winston, the reason I introduced Iris to you is because she will be taking over the affairs of Powell Pharmaceuticals. In the future, you can report directly to Iris for Powell Pharmaceuticals‘ work, because she is currently studying pharmacy at Ontaden Medical School and will be more experienced in the matters of Powell Pharmaceuticals than me.”

Iris was so rich, she was the big shot behind Merlin and Zayden, and

“Can I call you Ms. Aguilera?” he asked cautiously, his heart racing

Bernard, in his thirties, was one of the most famous managers on Finance Street. He had been the CEO of a Fortune 500 company. leading tens of thousands of employees and achieving unprecedented success for the company

Iris laughed, “Just a title, Mr. Winston can go by whatever he feels comfortable with.”

Bernard nodded excitedly, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then started reporting to Iris and Zayden about the current work at Powell Pharmaceuticals.

Iris listened carefully and took simple notes.

After discussing the current work issues at Powell Pharmaceuticals, Iris spilled the beans to Bernard about what’s going on in Aedan’s lab.

She had Bernard send someone to Goltuna to sign a contract with Aedan, and to advance the first installment of one billion dollars to Aedan as initial research funding
