They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System Chapter 41 - 41 Fake Business Plan

Chapter 41: Fake Business Plan Chapter 41: Fake Business Plan Reuben sighed deeply, clearly annoyed.

He leaned back in his chair and said bluntly, “Okay.

I need a million.” Courage froze, her eyes widening in shock.

“A million?

Where on earth am I supposed to get that kind of money easily?” Reuben looked at her, unfazed by her reaction.

“Don’t play dumb, Courage.

We both know your parents are wealthy.

If you ask them, they’ll give it to you without hesitation.

Besides,” he added with a pointed tone, “you’re a nurse.

Don’t tell you haven’t saved anything from your salary by now “Just because I have a million doesn’t an I can just give it away,” Nurse Courage said, trying to reason with him.

“Yes, I know it’s you asking, and I could help, but I need to know why you need it.

It has to be for a good reason.

I can’t just pull a million from my account without thinking it through.” “Of course, it’s for a good reason,” Reuben replied, his tone oozing entitlent.

“There’s a business I want to start.

It’s a huge opportunity, and I need about a million to invest.

Once it takes off, we’ll get married, and it’ll beco our business.

We’ll both reap the benefits.” He leaned closer, his voice lowering, as if his logic was undeniable.

“Besides, you’re my fiancée, Courage.

I should be able to rely on you for this.

I had friends I could’ve asked, but I ca to you first.

Why?

Because you’re supposed to help out.

That’s what being a couple is about, isn’t it?” “Also, our wedding is just a few months away.

I need to save up money for that too.

If this business takes off, we’ll have enough for the wedding and more,” Reuben added, his tone softening as he carefully emphasized the part about their future together.

Hearing him ntion the wedding, Nurse Courage hesitated.

She truly wanted to settle down, and she loved him.

If helping him ant moving closer to their dream wedding, then maybe it was worth it.

“Okay,” she began, the resolve in her voice growing, “I’ll help you.

But are you sure this busi—” She hadn’t even finished speaking when the girl sitting beside her interrupted, her tone laced with innocence.

“What kind of business is it, Uncle Reuben?” Nnenna asked curiously, her big eyes blinking up at him.

In her past life, when Nnenna had investigated Nurse Courage’s tragic death, she discovered the heartbreaking truth.

Nurse Courage had lent a huge sum of money to her fiancé, Reuben, believing in his promises.

But after their marriage, she found out he was cheating on her.

When she demanded her money back, he beca violent.

Fearing that she might report him for fraud, dostic abuse, and infidelity, Reuben gave her a brutal beating that ultimately caused her death.

Nnenna clenched her fists under the table, determination lighting a fire in her heart.

Lending him this million was one of the key things she needed to stop to save Nurse Courage from her terrible fate.

Hearing Nnenna’s question, Nurse Courage nodded in agreent.

It was a good question.

She turned to her fiancé, clearly expecting him to answer.

Reuben, however, looked completely taken aback, his face hardening with displeasure.

His tone turned sharp and condescending as he spoke, “Adults are talking.

Either walk away or pretend you’re not hearing what we’re saying.

You have no right to interfere.

Didn’t anyone ever teach you that?

Didn’t your parents raise you properly?” Nnenna tilted her head innocently, but there was a sly glint in her eyes.

“Well, Mommy Courage is one of my parents now,” she replied sweetly, leaning closer to Reuben.

“So, if you think I’m not well trained, it ans she didn’t train well.

What are you doing insulting your own fiancée, Uncle Reuben?” Her sly smile widened, and Reuben stiffened in embarrassnt.

Nurse Courage looked at him with a questioning frown, but shook it off in a second.

“It’s okay, Nnenna,” Nurse Courage said, patting Nnenna’s back gently.

“He didn’t an all that, right, Reuben?” Reuben stared at her for a mont, his frustration clear, but when he imagined the million in his grasp, he nodded reluctantly.

“See?

He didn’t an it at all,” she said with a smile, smoothing Nnenna’s hair and tucking a stray lock into place.

Then she turned back to Reuben with an encouraging expression.

“She does have a point, though, about the kind of investnt you’re planning.

Could you explain it in more detail?

Who knows, maybe I could invest more if it’s promising.” Nnenna almost choked on air.

She looked at Nurse Courage, her eyes wide with disbelief.

‘Is this a joke?!

I’m trying to expose him, and now she’s considering giving him even more money?!’ She ntally scread at the system, ‘Love System!

Why do I feel like I just made things worse?’ Hearing Nurse Courage say she might invest more if he presented a solid business plan, Reuben’s confidence soared.

He quickly decided to spin a fake business idea that sounded convincing.

Smiling at her as though he was a visionary entrepreneur, he began.

“It’s an agricultural business,” he said confidently.

“I’ll lease farmland to grow crops.

After planting and harvesting, I’ll sell them directly to buyers who place orders through my service.

The demand for fresh, organic produce is rising, and once my system is fully operational, it’ll generate consistent profits.

It’s a great opportunity.

The million will help pay labourers for harvest.

That’s why I need it today.” Nurse Courage listened intently, nodding along as if the plan made perfect sense.

She couldn’t help but feel impressed by his ambition.

anwhile, Nnenna sat quietly, analyzing every word.

‘Planting, harvesting, and selling crops through his service?

He doesn’t seem to have any experience or interest in farming,’ she thought skeptically.

And how can crops that haven’t been planted yet be harvested?

This is obviously a scam.

But how do I convince her of that without sounding like I’m ddling too much?’ CREATORS’ THOUGHTS JedidiahBeaufoy Have so idea about my story?

Comnt it and let know.
