Chapter 111 Crash and Burn

When that time came, Eliza would have no choice but to sleep on the streets.

But after Evelyn said all that, what she got wasn’t Eliza’s usual submissive reply or her cautious attempts to please her–what she got was the cold, flat tone of the call ending.

By the time Evelyn realized what had happened, Eliza had already hung up on her.

Staring at her phone in disbelief, Evelyn was stunned.

That little brat Eliza had the nerve to hang up on her?

She didn’t believe it.

Without Eliza’s connection to the pharmaceutical factory, there was no way she could sell her meds?

The flu wasn’t over yet.

She didn’t believe people wouldn’t still need medicine and masks.

Evelyn stubbornly went around posting ads in various online groups and on the street, claiming she had medicine and masks for sale.

But for two whole weeks, not a single person reached out.

One day, Evelyn called a wealthy businessman and said, “Yes, yes, we’re selling at 170 per box. That price’s already very reasonable—any lower and we’d lose money!”

“Madam Evelyn, you must be joking.”

The man chuckled over the phone. “I only came to you because I heard you were offering low prices. I was going to buy in bulk for charity, but 170 per box? That’s way too expensive.”

“Expensive? It used to sell for 200 a box!”

Evelyn assumed he was just trying to haggle.

But the man replied, “Have you not seen the market lately? There’s a nearby factory selling at 100 per box.”

“What? 100 per box? That’s impossible!”

Evelyn’s face changed instantly.

How could anyone be selling for just 100 per box?

“Madam Evelyn, I think we’ll pass. I’ll buy from the other supplier instead.”

With that, he hung up without giving her a chance to respond.

Just then, Naomi came running downstairs in a panic.

“Mom! Something bad happened!”

“What now?”

Evelyn had already heard enough bad news for one day.

She didn’t want to hear more.

Naomi’s face was pale as she pulled up the news on her phone and showed it to Evelyn.

“Mom, is this real? If it is, then we’re totally screwed!”

Evelyn looked at the news headline.

The latest government report was cracking down on illegal profiteering from medicine and mask sales.

Anyone caught would be punished severely.

Reading that, Evelyn went white as a sheet.

“W–What does this mean? What is this supposed to mean?!”

Her vision blurred. Naomi explained, “It means… from now on, prices can’t go up anymore. They’re only going to keep going down.”

Hearing that, Evelyn’s world went black, and she fell backward.

“Mom! Mom!”

Naomi rushed to catch her.

Evelyn’s head was spinning. “How… how could this happen?”

Just two weeks ago, the meds were still going for 200 a box! They were practically impossible to find.

And now, in just half a month, the price had dropped this much?

Evelyn scrambled to pull out her phone and contact the vendors who’d previously bought in bulk.

But every message she sent showed the same result:

They had already deleted her.

Her face went ghostly pale.

How… how could this happen?

Her eight million….

Meanwhile-

Eliza looked down at the same news story, one eyebrow lifting slightly.

Flu season brought supply shortages. A short–term price spike was inevitable.

Public panic, bulk buying–that too, was expected.

But a sharp rise in price was always followed by a steep crash. Eventually, it would fall right back to the starting point.
