Chapter 1714: Chapter 1712: Envy is Useless

In the company where Peter Brown used to work, everyone saw updates about Peter Brown’s company online every day.

When Peter first said he wanted to start a business, hardly anyone was optimistic about his entrepreneurial prospects, including Tobia Armstrong, who was merely curious and did not think Peter could make much of a splash.

However, as Peter’s company was established, everyone realized they had seriously underestimated him.

When the flying vehicle was released, everyone just envied it a bit, given how expensive it was, and now he’s even come out with a Gene Medicine. Peter is really setting a heavenly pace!

In the branch office, everyone gathered again to talk about Peter Brown’s company.

A woman, looking at Ivy Cooper’s successful situation in the newspaper, said enviously, "Ivy has really made it big this time. I never thought she’d have her day!"

Everyone’s eyes turned to the newspaper, where a woman in a red outfit was featured, her whole demeanor completely transformed.

A Section Chief said, "The two women who followed Peter have really struck it rich. There’s no need to mention Reid Nelson, it’s said her fortune has already reached ten billion."

Another person said, "With the sales of the flying vehicles, her fortune is worth much more than ten billion. Just you watch, it could be several tens of billions. Ivy Cooper is also incredible, a moment’s decision, I never expected he would have the courage to follow Peter. Now he’s made it big, owning 1% of Gene Corp. With the Gene Medicine selling so well, earning tens of billions is like a joke for her. I regret not joining back then."

The person speaking was also from the Meng Jiang System, and later belonged to Peter Brown’s group. At that time, Peter had also sought his opinion, but he had not agreed.

"Leah, honestly, I’ve always wondered why you didn’t follow him at the time. Everyone knows you were one of Peter’s trusted followers," another woman said teasingly.

By now, everyone knew Leah Nelson’s troubles; her remark was intentionally phrased that way.

All eyes suddenly turned to Leah Nelson.

Another woman said, "Reid was one, and so was Florida Collins. I am also surprised Florida didn’t follow him. It’s unexpected that the silent Ivy went instead. It really was a moment’s decision!"

Leah Nelson chuckled dryly, "Everyone has their own path. At that time, my family objected, and there was nothing I could do."

Everyone sighed and said, "Yes, oftentimes following family advice turns out to be a mistake."

"Imogan, weren’t you close to Peter back then? Why didn’t you follow him?"

Everyone turned their attention to Imogan Jones.

Imogan was extremely frustrated at that moment. When Peter had sought her opinion, Imogan had not been optimistic about Peter and had directly refused him. When she learned that Peter was definitely leaving, her words even carried a hint of mockery. Now, however, she was extremely embarrassed. Who could have imagined Peter would become so successful?

"How much money does Peter actually have now?" someone asked.

"Money probably means nothing to Peter by now."

"Yes, he’s probably making money every day. To him, money is just too plentiful. Oh, the regrets!"

Those who could be considered part of Peter’s circle—even those he had invited before he left—were quietly regretting their choices.

People in the office had already left.

Imogan glanced at Leah, and both sighed quietly.

In fact, ever since Peter released his flying vehicle products and seeing Reid’s success, Leah had already called Peter, expressing a desire to join him, but Peter only gave her one sentence, "I’m not short of people," and wished her a bright future.

Thinking of Peter’s indifferent words and then calling him again, only to have a computer answer, Leah understood that her relationship with Peter was completely over.

"Did you hear? Peter’s company has separated the battery project into a new company, and the CEO is his nanny, Sadie Smith, who also owns 1% of the shares!" Imogan told Leah, sharing the news.

Upon hearing this, Leah’s face showed even more of a bitter smile, she sighed, "It was all just a moment’s decision."

"Sigh, how could I not have realized he was capable of so much? Truth be told, he didn’t seem anything special in our office. Honestly, I never respected him. Now thinking about it, we all underestimated him. If all that technology really belonged to him, I can’t believe it."

"If it’s not his, could he be a time-traveler?"

"Exactly. Sometimes I wonder if he’s like someone out of a novel who has traveled through time."

Now the two felt a shared sense of misery, regretting not being among the successful people under Peter’s wing.

"And then there’s Sadie Smith, she just had to sleep with Peter to be so favored. What kind of educational background does she even have?"

"No education to speak of, just slept with him, that’s Peter deliberately giving her benefits."

The two lost interest in talking, yet in their minds, they were thinking: even if they wanted to sleep with Peter now, he wouldn’t want them.

"Have you heard? Our branch has been without a project for a while, it’s going to be shut down. Next, we don’t even know where the two of us will be placed. We might even be laid off!"

Speaking of this, the two women were deeply worried.

"Should we go look for Peter?" Imogan cautiously suggested.

Leah shook her head, "I can’t believe you haven’t tried his factory yet, you can’t even get through the door."

Imogan was just speaking theoretically, and now couldn’t help but curse, "Heartless and ungrateful!"

After cursing, she laughed bitterly again. At the time, Peter had provided an opportunity, yet both had underestimated him.

In another office, several women were chatting excitedly about Peter Brown.

A woman laughed, "Does Peter even lack women now? Whether celebrities or singers, just a word from him, and they’re ready to strip for his favor. Haha, some people dropped the ball at the key moment, instead of worrying about whether to stay hired or get fired, just think about it, it’s hilarious!"

"Why didn’t you make a move at that time? If you had, the role Ivy has now could have been yours."

Someone teased her.

"Ah, to be honest, nobody thought that kid could be so awesome. I regret it too!"

The group burst into laughter.
