All the cameras then aimed at Niall.Many people below the stage started to whisper."I heard that Northstar Pharma was researching anti-cancer drugs a year ago. But I heard that they failed during the experimental phase.""Yeah! I heard that too. How did they succeed so soon?""Is there something fishy going on here?"Theodore, who was on the stage, glanced at the people down there. Of course, he heard what they said."I believe all of you are curious about how Northstar Pharma failed so many times and couldn't even reach the clinical trials. Yet, we succeeded suddenly."Theodore then turned to Sebastian and stood up, saying respectfully, "I hereby proudly announce that it was Mr. Ballard who provided us with the formula."Moreover, after a full day of extensive testing by Northstar Pharma, this formula has proven to be very stable. It shows excellent efficacy in completely curing early and mid-stage cancer cells. "Even for late-stage cancer patients, it can significantly ex
"Rubbish! He's a scammer!"At this time, an arrogant voice came from the door.Everyone turned to look at the young man. Theodore's face sank when he saw the young man's face clearly."Trevor, what are you talking about?" Theodore slammed the table angrily and stood up.Trevor tidied his collar calmly and pointed at the Ytalian expert dressed in a white coat behind him."Uncle Theodore, these are top experts from Ytalia. "I believe their test results carry more authority, and cancer medication is a matter of life and death. We can't simply rely on Sebastian's words. Northstar Pharma wouldn't risk its reputation on a fake drug just because of him."As soon as Trevor finished speaking, several Ytalian experts ignored the objections of the staff on site and began setting up various testing instruments on the stage. Trevor walked toward the stage and pulled a vial from his coat pocket. He raised it high and loudly addressed the guests and journalists present."Everyone must be c
The minutes ticked by, and a deafening silence enveloped the entire hall. Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the detection equipment. Larys and Niall stared intently at the numbers on the display, their breaths becoming noticeably quicker. Finally, the digits on the screen stopped moving."Error: 1608, Test Drug Ineffective!" Everyone could read the bold words on the screen.Trevor laughed loudly as he pointed at the screen and said, "Look at that! It's ineffective! I knew it! "Sebastian, I was wondering how you have this formula when you're neither a legendary doctor in Steinberg nor a famous figure. It turns out that the formula you provided is useless!"Theodore was stunned. How was this possible?He had read the data analysis report from Northstar Pharma, so he knew the formula was effective.However, facts spoke louder than words, and the equipment wouldn't lie. Could it be that Northstar Pharma's testing team was really bribed by Arctic Snow Group?Larys and Niall w
Trevor frowned and pointed at the crowd walking toward the stage. "Who are you? Who are you to judge Ytalia's team of experts? Security, kick them out!"Trevor certainly didn't want his plans to be messed up by these random people.The leading middle-aged man glanced coldly at Trevor and stepped onto the stage. He said to Cameron coldly, "Cameron, I hope you can stop whatever you're doing now. Mr. Ballard's reputation shall not be tarnished by the likes of you, let alone an equipment that has been tampered with!"Trevor stepped forward and pointed at the middle-aged man angrily. "Who the hell are you? How dare you insult our doctor?"Sebastian glanced at Trevor and smiled. "Mr. Trevor, I suggest you be more polite. This is Marquess Enzo Romano from Ytalia."Trevor's eyes widened in fear at his words, and he looked at the middle-aged man in disbelief.Before he could even question Enzo, Niall and Larys had already walked toward the stage and shook hands with him warmly. "Welcome t
"Bullshit!" Trevor shouted at Cameron. "You said Sebastian's formula has issues, and you insist on exposing him in public! What has this got to do with me?"Also, t-this is Northstar Pharma's dinner party. Would I try to ruin my own family company's reputation?"Trevor instinctively turned to look at Theodore. However, Theodore's face was dark with fury, his eyes cold and filled with terrifying killing intent as he glared at Trevor.Bruno sneered and pointed at the device. "Your personal grudges are none of my concern. I only want to know if this device was tampered with? Did you deliberately frame Mr. Ballard?"Under Bruno's relentless questioning, Cameron fell to his knees with a thud with tears streaming down his face. He confessed everything about how the entire plot had unfolded.However, he didn't mention anything about Jace. Instead, he pushed all the blame on Trevor.The more Cameron spoke, the colder Theodore looked. When Cameron finished speaking, Theodore was already
All the guests at the venue tactfully stood up and took their leave from Theodore.Only after everyone had left did Theodore suddenly slam his hand on the table and yell angrily, "Trevor, you've really got some nerve!"Double dealing is one thing, but to bring outsiders to sabotage the Northman family's efforts? Do you realize what tonight's dinner meant for us?""If not for Mr. Ballard's tremendous luck, by tomorrow morning, our family would have become the laughingstock of the entire Sartvale!"A creature as low as you is not worthy of staying with us any longer. From today onward, you are no longer part of the Northman family. I give you one day to leave, or else, you will face the consequences!"Trevor was shocked. He felt like he had been struck by lightning. He heavily depended on the Northman family's backing, without which he might be reduced to begging on the streets."Uncle Theodore, I realize my mistake now! Please give me one more chance. Mr. Ballard, I shouldn't be e
Theodore kicked Trevor away and led the Northman family members out of the hall angrily.As he watched their departing figures, a deep-seated hatred flickered in Trevor's eyes.If it had been Theodore who died instead of his father back then, he would already be the heir of the Northman family.But Theodore, who was ungrateful and ruthless, not only forgot the past but also wanted to expel him from the family."If I can't have it, no one else can!" Trevor gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and stood up resolutely with a sinister expression. Then, he strode out of the hall.Half an hour later, Trevor stormed into Jace's suite. The moment he entered, he shouted angrily, "Jace, I trusted you, but look at the people you introduced me to!"As he spoke, Trevor recounted everything that had happened in the hall.Jace lounged on the couch while holding a half glass of red wine and sipped it slowly with a smile as he listened to Trevor's story.After Trevor finished, Jace gently set
Trevor eyed Elton warily and frowned. "I wonder what Mr. Reynolds has in mind to change my uncle's decision?""Possession," Elton said in a raspy voice.What? Trevor was startled initially, then skeptically frowned. "Mr. Reynolds, what era do you think we live in? Those old superstitions... They're not very credible."Elton gave Trevor a cold smile, then stretched out a thin finger and lightly touched Trevor's forehead.Trevor suddenly felt darkness engulf his vision, and everything around him turned into nothingness in a blink.He felt as though he was trapped in a pitch-black space surrounded by countless orbs of demonic fire forming a giant face–Elton's face.Elton's voice made Trevor feel a chill down his spine. Were there really souls and spirits in the world? Were all those legends he'd heard actually true?At this moment, a deep fear took root in Trevor's heart. He yelled loudly at the ghostly face, "Let me out… I can give you money, and I have a lot of money. Just help
