"Chuck gave the results of our research to another medical company. He got a visa abroad and became one of the core members of that company."Jim smiled bitterly. "The funny thing was, he came to look for me even before he went abroad. He said that alternative medicine was in its twilight years and would soon be replaced. He wanted me to go with him."Did you know that the company he joined specialized in stealing other people's research? Then, they manufactured cheap medicine for sale. Later on, they even bought low-quality materials to reduce costs. "The medicine they created was terrible. They have no regard for human life! It was only ten years ago that this company was reported by a number of other companies, and then it went out of business!"Jim gritted his teeth and punched the car door. "They are just a band of thieves with no conscience!"Yvonne was sorry to see Jim so furious that he was shaking. She reached out and patted him on the back. "You left Northerna City ba
Anson looked at where Alvin was pointing. Sure enough, he saw Chuck, who had just entered, being swarmed by a group of reporters.Chuck was a legend in the medical field. On top of that, he had lived abroad most of the time. The reporters here had never gotten the chance to properly interview him.When they realized he was at the press conference, they couldn't pass up the opportunity to ask him some questions."Mr. Jensen, you have suddenly returned to the country. Is there something you'll be doing here? Does Well Spring Pharma have a new direction in the country?""Mr. Jensen, you're attending a press conference today. Are you interested in the two companies?"Questions came one after the other. Chuck smiled politely before releasing a piece of huge news. "The main reason for my return this time is because I want to work with Hope Health Services. Well Spring Pharma has been growing internationally. "But I have long wanted to return to the country to search for a bigger mar
With the media covering the event, Yvonne and Annie signed the contract. It was followed by rapturous applause and flashes from the cameras.Annie was so excited that she was at a loss for words. She grabbed Yvonne's hand tightly to show her gratitude. Excel Pharma had never had such a great moment in a long time! All the attention they had that day was thanks to Hope!Yvonne realized what Annie was thinking. She turned to say into Annie's ears, "This is what Excel Pharma deserves."Annie was stunned. She looked at Yvonne proudly and nodded. "Ms. Miller, don't worry. I won't disappoint you."Yvonne smiled.The reporters had decided to use the picture of them smiling at each other as their main photo.It was then time for the reporters to ask questions. The atmosphere was rather relaxed. Perhaps it was because they were both women, so the reporters didn't make things difficult for them or ask them hard questions.Half an hour later, the Q&A session ended. Everyone on stage than
In the end, Chuck chose to leave silently. Stephen was truly relieved when he saw Chuck leave.Yvonne looked at him. "Don't tell me; you came all the way here just to provoke Chuck Jensen.""You got it right." Stephen looked at Yvonne smugly. "I saw online that he was at the press conference.""Stephen, you're not a child anymore. Why—""If you think my actions are childish," Stephen went in closer and enunciated, "then, I am childish."Yvonne was at a loss for words. She nearly got lost in his charming eyes. She looked away and murmured, "You're a man-child."Annie was standing next to them. She took the chance to invite them. "Our company is having a celebration tonight. Since you're already here, Mr. Anderson, do you want to come as well?""Sure." Stephen was in a great mood, so he agreed to it quickly.Annie clapped her hands excitedly. "Amazing! I'll go make some arrangements!"After Annie left, Stephen casually asked Yvonne, "You seemed to be very hostile toward Ch
That night, the celebration party was filled with laughter. Yvonne had just finished greeting the guests and drinking with them. She found a quiet corner to eat.She had been busy the entire day and hadn't had a proper meal. Her stomach was burning badly, as she had just had two glasses of champagne.At that moment, Stephen walked over to her. He handed her a plate of food. "Have some food. It'll help with the alcohol."Yvonne accepted the plate and asked, "How did you know I was hungry?""I heard your stomach rumbling when I walked past you.""What?" Yvonne furrowed her brows. "Was it that bad?"Stephen chuckled. "Of course not. I just guessed that you probably didn't have much time to eat today."Yvonne rolled her eyes at Stephen. Then, she started to eat.Stephen stood next to her and casually mentioned, "After the press conference, things seemed to be abuzz.""Yes, I can imagine." Yvonne hadn't even had time to eat, let alone go on social media. She was just confident in
When the Long brothers heard Chuck mention that he wanted to speak to Jim alone, they immediately understood.Anson forcefully led Jim to the couch before leaving the room with Alvin. Before leaving, Anson added, "Mr. Jim, we'll be waiting outside. Let us know if you need any help."Jim sneered. They might seem polite, but in reality, they were warning him that they would be keeping watch outside and that he should be cooperative. Jim really wanted to see what nonsense Chuck could come up with!"Sir, have some tea." Chuck handed Jim a cup of tea. "It's your favorite."Jim didn't even look at it. He asked sternly, "Cut the crap. What do you want to say to me?""Since when did you have such a temper? I don't remember how you used to—""Shut up!" Jim slapped the table."I'm not here to catch up with you! Chuck, if you have any conscience at all, you should be kneeling in front of the research team members' graves, repenting for your mistakes! You ruined their hard work!""Si
Half an hour later, Yvonne met Jim at the entrance of the hall. She immediately went up to him. "Grandpa, where have you been? I asked Ms. Long, and she said you had arrived a long time ago."Jim was still a little disoriented. He looked at Yvonne in a daze for a while before coming to his senses. "I—I was in the bathroom. I'm old. There are things that just take time."Yvonne furrowed her brow and sized Jim up. "You don't look too well. Are you hiding something from me?""What?" Jim suddenly remembered what Chuck had told him. "You can't let Yvonne know about this. If not, Mark would easily get suspicious."Seeing Jim in a daze, Yvonne went in closer. "Grandpa, what happened?"Jim pushed Yvonne away. He avoided her gaze and said curtly, "You silly girl! Must you make me spell out that I'm constipated? Since when have you seen a constipated person looking well?"Yvonne smiled. "You have a point.""Alright. Aren't we here for a party? Why are you stopping me from entering?"
Chuck smiled at Tate. "Hello."Tate furrowed his brows a little and looked at Anson and Alvin. They were just good for nothing. How had they come to know the boss of Well Spring Pharma?Anson could guess what Tate was thinking. He smiled and explained, "Dad, when we found out that Mr. Jensen had returned to the country, we wanted to see if we could seize the chance for Excel Pharma. So we contacted him. "Mr. Jensen is a really great person. Not once has he ever looked down on Excel Pharma as a small business. He even plans to work with us!"Tate was surprised. He looked at Chuck once more. "Mr. Jensen, is it true?"Chuck nodded. "Yes, your sons are capable. They got me interested in Excel Pharma."Tate couldn't believe what he was hearing. His sons were useless pieces of trash to him. Why were they really capable in Chuck's eyes?"Dad, did you hear? Mr. Jensen praised us!" Alvin raised his eyebrow smugly. He even looked at Annie provocatively and said, "We couldn't delive
