Guardian-In-Law

Chapter 611 A Million Dollars

“Hello, Mr. Yale. Is there anything I can do for you?”

Reminded by the reviewing panel's hypocrisy, Darcy sounded rather indifferent.
“Our committee has reviewed your proposal again, Ms. Quint, and we believe
you could be eligible for funding.

“Why don’t you drop by, and we'll have a talk?”

To Darcy’s surprise, Federick was not just fobbing her off.

He had audited her business proposal once more.

Federick turned out to be serious and responsible with his work.

Maybe she got the wrong idea about Federick.

He might not be in cahoots with those people. He probably did everything he
could so as not to rub the Sunrise Lees the wrong way.

“Thank you, Mr. Yale. I will be there right away.”

Darcy ended the call with a thrill.

“Who is Mr. Yale?” Kaze asked.

Darcy replied enthusiastically, “He’s the head of the reviewing committee and a
faculty member of the University of South River. He said he looked into our
proposal again and believed we have a good chance of getting the grant.”
“I'll go with you.”

Kaze got up and grabbed the car key.

He wanted to sort out the issue with the reviewing panel too.

“Just wait outside, Kaze.”

Once at the office building, Darcy went into Federick’s office alone.

“Ms. Quint, I think I made things clear on the phone, so I'll cut to the chase.”
Federick pushed his glasses up his nose bridge and added, “Your application for
the support fund can be approved.”

“That's great, Mr. Yale. Thank you.”

Darcy was overjoyed.

Quartet Group applied for 500 million dollars in grants.

Nevertheless, Darcy did not expect to acquire the full amount. She would be
grateful to just get 100 million dollars.

The government funding worth up to 10 billion dollars might sound like a lot, but
there were many companies in need of help.

Besides, the Quints and Lees were granted six billion dollars combined.

The remaining four billion dollars was not enough to go around.

“Quartet Group will utilize the five-hundred—million—dollar grant where it matters
and make a positive impact in the commercial environment. We are committed to
creating jobs, boosting the economy, and improving the quality of the people's
lives,” Darcy replied earnestly.

“Ms. Quint, what gives you the impression that you have gotten five hundred
million dollars?”

Federick gave Darcy a strange look, finding her naive.

“Oh, how much is it?” Darcy asked awkwardly.

Federick stuck one finger out. “A million dollars.”

“A million dollars?”

Darcy's eyes burned with rage.

A million dollars was not enough to buy property in Lilyrose.

Besides, Quartet Group was not a small business in Lilyrose.

The Quints were able to walk away with two billion dollars.

She was brushed off with a pittance.

Federick removed his spectacles for a wipe before putting them back on.

“A million dollars doesn’t come for free, Ms. Quint.”

He ogled at Darcy, his eyes traveling along her voluptuous figure.

Federick rose to his feet and walked away from his desk to approach Darcy.

He had lewd thoughts about Darcy when he first laid eyes on her.

The only reason he took some time to reveal his true colors was to gain the
upper hand.

He needed to put Darcy through an emotional roller coaster before getting her to
meet his demands.
