Chapter 777
Sheldon nodded and said, "The financial costs will only increase over time. If someone very capable is willing to join us, why not?"
"Who is this person?" Elizabeth asked.
"You'll find out tonight," Sheldon smiled. "I came specifically to tell you about this."
Between the lines, she meant, "Don't refuse me; I came to you just for this."
Elizabeth fell silent.
She had a bad feeling.
Elizabeth probed, "Is it Alexander?"
Sheldon didn't expect Elizabeth to be so perceptive.
"If it's him," he was interrupted by Elizabeth before he could finish, "Sheldon, how much did Mr. Tudor invest in you? I'll invest double."
She didn't need Alexander to invest in the institute.
"Elizabeth, don't act on impulse! Alexander's willingness to invest in our institute is a great thing for us!"
Elizabeth shook her head; she didn't think so.
"Sheldon, I hope you consider this rationally!"
"I have considered it, so Elizabeth, you need to come tonight," he said.
Elizabeth didn't know how to respond.
Sheldon frowned.
Elizabeth felt inexplicably irritated.
She really wanted to defy Sheldon.
But she knew very well that in the institute, although she was the director and an investor, these titles were given by Sheldon.
Her investment wasn't as much as Sheldon's, and the institute was founded by Sheldon first. At most, she was a partner!
She had the right to negotiate with Sheldon, but Sheldon could agree or refuse.
She could also use her departure to threaten Sheldon.
However, researching SH2N was Celine's wish. Elizabeth leaving would do her no good!
Sheldon might not be afraid of Elizabeth leaving either. After all, if one Elizabeth left, there would be countless others like her.
Those people might not be as capable as she was, but the world could function without anyone!
"What do you say?" Sheldon asked Elizabeth.
Elizabeth remained silent.
She smiled, "But Sheldon, even without this institute, I can still do a good job with SH2N."
"Elizabeth, this isn't your patent," he replied.
Elizabeth fell silent.
Sheldon said, "Fulfill Celine's wish properly."
Soon, Blair came out of the lounge.
She saw Sheldon and immediately complained, "Elizabeth bullied me again."
"It was your fault," Sheldon frowned. "Elizabeth is already very tired every day; don't keep causing her trouble!"
"Blair, be good and apologize to Elizabeth! Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you in this institute!"
Elizabeth looked at Sheldon.
Sheldon told Elizabeth that in this circle, there were many unknown tactics.
Elizabeth could leave, but she couldn't take everything with her.
Elizabeth sighed.
Celine had already sacrificed so much.
She couldn't leave impulsively.
If this patent hadn't been applied for by Sheldon, she could have taken the Base M team to redevelop it.
"I'm sorry, Elizabeth," Blair apologized to Elizabeth.
Elizabeth's heart trembled.
Elizabeth also understood a principle.
If you wanted someone to always protect you, you must give that person enough respect in their domain.
Blair was really obedient.
No wonder Sheldon was willing to spoil her all the time.
When Sheldon wasn't around, Blair was irritable; when Sheldon was around, Blair was gentle and obedient.
Wasn't this also telling Elizabeth that in front of Sheldon, if Sheldon gave her respect, she should also give Sheldon respect?
"My attitude wasn't good either," Elizabeth smiled, then looked at Sheldon, "Sheldon, I'll be there on time tonight. Just send me the location."
Sheldon was very satisfied with Elizabeth's response. He smiled and said, "Alright."
