Chapter 1124: 301: It's too late for regrets! _4 Chapter 1124: 301: It's too late for regrets! _4 As it turned out, Mr. White was not just musing about it.
After dinner, he was ready to head downstairs to deliver the takeout.
The young lady at the front desk greeted him respectfully when she saw him coming down, saying, “Morning, Boss White.”
Mr. White nodded his head.
If it were legal, he was even considering having all his company employees do delivery work during their lunch break.
Not long after he left, the receptionist's friend came out from the inside, looked at Mr. White's back, and asked curiously, “The gentleman who just passed by was your boss?”
“Yes,” the receptionist nodded, “What do you think? Young, isn't he?”
Her friend had a complicated expression on his face, “He is indeed young, and very handsome, too. But… if I'm not mistaken, he was driving a Chevrolet, wasn't he?”
Sure enough, it was the same type of car she drove.
Priced at less than $100,000.
Ordinary workers use it for commuting.
Such a car seemed unfathomable for a CEO of a listed company.
It all felt so surreal.
“You weren't mistaken,” the receptionist said with a smile, “Our boss is just that humble. Sometimes, he even bikes to work. Plus, I heard that he keeps his breakfast leftovers for dinner. He's still single because he fears girls who spend too much. He also wakes up early to buy discounted eggs at the supermarket. Even keeps the cardboard boxes at his home…”
By the end, the receptionist deliberately lowered her voice.
Even though this was common knowledge at the company, discussing the boss behind his back was generally frowned upon.
Upon hearing this, the friend's face filled with disbelief, “Is there really such a rich man in this world?”
Under normal circumstances, the wealthy know how to enjoy life.
There's simply no one like Mr. White, so wealthy yet so stingy.
The receptionist went on, “At first, I couldn't believe it either, but then I got used to it. Our Boss actually owns several cars, including a Lamborghini and a Rolls-Royce. But because the gasoline for these luxury cars is expensive, he hardly drives them. Except for certain very important occasions!”
Mr. White is famously frugal.
People often say that a miser cannot achieve great things.
Yet, Mr. White is exactly that exception.
Meanwhile, at Capital University.
Viola Thompson received invitation letters from distinguished universities at home and abroad.
They hoped that Viola could participate in their lectures.
Yves Dinwoodie, sitting across from Viola, handed her the invitations, “Viola, do you have some spare time to attend any of them?”
Viola pulled out the invitation from Capital University.
“I'll go to Capital University first.”
Capital University is Sinian Country's key university of “Project 985”.
It ranks among the top twenty worldwide.
Conveniently enough, both Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight are there.
“Okay,” Yves Dinwoodie nodded and smiled, “I'll arrange for it.”
Even though the Capital University timetable was chock-full,
Current advancements were such that no teacher could give lectures to Viola anymore.
As long as Viola was willing, she could receive her bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees whenever she wanted!
Moreover, the university would grant her the title of 'Academician'.
“Thank you, Principal Thompson.”
Yves Dinwoodie laughed, “No problem, not at all, not at all.”
If such a matter amounts to trouble, then he would gladly welcome ten or eight more of these kinds of troubles.
Viola most certainly was a great miracle.
Now, Lady Nasef had no complications. Apart from her, there were already nine people scheduled for surgery.
Yves Dinwoodie continued, “Viola, I'll get going now. Call me if you need me.”
“Sure.”
Over here, Yves Dinwoodie had just left.
Again, the office door was knocked on.
“Come in,” Viola uttered lightly.
Vincent Lee walked in.
“Vio.”
“What's up?” Viola looked up only slightly.
Vincent Lee went on, “Vio, I'm thinking of going home tomorrow.”
“To get your mother?” Viola asked.
Vincent Lee nodded, “Would that be okay?”
After all, the lab was pretty busy at the moment.
However, Mrs. Price didn't have many relatives back home, and coupled with her inconvenient eyes, Vincent Lee really didn't feel at ease leaving her alone.
“Of course, you can,” Viola went on, “Start packing now, and once your mother arrives, I'll be performing the surgery on her personally.”
Upon hearing this, Vincent Lee looked up at Viola with a face full of surprise, “Really?”
He had entertained this idea.
But he just wasn't sure how to bring it up.
“Yes,” Viola nodded slightly, “You should get going now. Make it quick, as on the 3rd, I might need to leave the island to visit Capital City.”
