"You're Elizabeth Holmes?"

Kazir stared at the woman in shock. Of course he was shocked. Because he hadn't expected this situation to happen to him, not today, not tomorrow...

'I've never been cheated on in my entire life... Except for my marriage. That whole thing was a sham. '

Only people like Kazir Grey, who went through a painful divorce and lost almost everything they owned could say that.

Marriage was a beautiful thing, wasn't it? A contract that would scam half of your money.

By the way, the old, nameless, bumpy car that Kazir owned after the divorce was still sitting in his garage. He decided to restore it even though the car had no monetary value. It was his last possession when he divorced Cassandra Hoecrap, and it had a special place in his heart, just like Napoleon Dynamite.

"Yes, that's right, director." The woman, Elizabeth, nodded. The woman looked young, and she had just turned 19 this year. But her confidence was amazing.

Kazir almost believed the woman was sincere, based on her expression and her confident aura. Fortunately, he knew the future so he didn't fall for the trap.

Theranos Inc. A famous company.

Theranos was a healthcare technology company founded by Elizabeth Holmes in 2003. It claimed to have developed a revolutionary blood-testing device that could perform a wide range of tests with just a few drops of blood. However, it was later revealed that the technology didn't work as claimed, leading to a scandal and the eventual collapse of the company. (Chat GPT)

Kazir understood where this conversation was going. He had no intention of playing around.

"I'm sorry, but I'm busy." Kazir decided to end this farce before it could even begin. He knew he was wasting his time listening to Elizabeth.

"Director, just give me 5 minutes and I will tell you about the revolutionary test kit that is going to change the world."

'Bruh, just fuck off.'

He cursed in his mind. He knew this so-called revolutionary test kit was going to scam people out of their money. Theranos raised $700 million from private investors and venture capitalists... That money was gone once the truth about the company was revealed.

Nothing but a big scam.

Kazir's gaze was cold as he looked at the young woman.

"I'm sorry, Elizabeth, but I don't have time to listen to your imaginary revolutionary thing. First of all, you're too young to start a business. Do you even know how business works? Do you even know what you're talking about? Besides, how can a little blood be enough to do all those tests?"

'Fuck Theranos. Fuck Elizabeth Holmes.' Kazir thought.

"Okay, I'll tell them to watch out for Elizabeth Holmes." Tom nodded.

"Spread the words." Kazir added.

He was confused as to how Elizabeth Holmes had found her way to the party. This was a formal and private Hollywood party. A person needed an invitation to get in.

The answer came a few minutes later.

Tom Rothman appeared with a glass of wine, a little uncomfortable. Since Grey Pictures and 20th Century Fox were considered partners, people from Fox were also invited. It was not a surprise that Tom Rothman attended the party. He wanted to strengthen his friendship with Kazir.

"Kazir, I heard you made Elizabeth cry. May I know the reason?"

"Hm?" Kazir was surprised that Tom Rothman knew Elizabeth Holmes.

"Tom, that little girl wants to deceive me. I will not easily believe such nonsense. A small amount of blood is not enough to do all those tests."

"..." Tom Rothman was too quiet.

"Tom, did I say something that made you uncomfortable?"

The CEO was sweating a little.

"Nothing... It's a good thing I haven't recommended her to Rupert Murdoch yet. Otherwise I might lose my job."

"..."

"..."

They didn't know what to say. In the end, Tom Rothman apologized and also thanked him. He probably made some stupid decisions that he might regret later. Luckily, Kazir was there to tell him the truth before he spent more money on investments...

A day later, Tom took out his investment from Theranos.
