Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 58
Joshua pressed the elevator button for the ground floor. Soon, the elevator doors opened, revealing his uncle and aunt, whom he didn't expect to see.Meanwhile, Natasha adjusted her sunglasses, debating whether to get involved. Just then, the doors slid open, and Joshua stepped out in his black suit. What was he doing here?Natasha quickly hid behind a large pillar, hoping to avoid being noticed.At the same time, Ron noticed Joshua as well. "It seemed like Joshua's eager to give up his position as well," he thought with a smile.Puzzled, Joshua addressed his two relatives. "What are you doing here, Uncle Ron? Didn't you say you'd never show up here again?"Back when Joshua first assumed his position, his uncle and aunt kept making things difficult for him and even openly challenged him. However, since they were his father's siblings, as well as the consideration of his father's recent passing back then, he had stopped himself from confronting them.Yet, their actions onl

Ellen chuckled nervously. "I've heard some rumors, that's all. So, has there really been a problem?"Joshua glanced at Ellen and pressed his lips together but remained silent. Unable to hold back any longer, Ron blurted out, "There's no point in trying to hide it from us. I've already found out about this issue, so how do you plan to explain things to your grandfather?"Failing to stop her brother, Ellen could only sigh and step aside.Joshua had already figured out that they were here for some other reason, but he didn't expect them to blow their cover so soon.With a cold sneer, Joshua answered, "Since you've already dug around, there's nothing more for me to say."While it was true that he was to blame for the company's failure to develop a new drug, Joshua was confident that he could solve this issue. His current plan was to spend a hefty sum to hire Sean Crawford and put him in charge of Grayson Corp's drug manufacturing process. With Sean on board, Joshua was certain t

After the speech, Joshua spun around, ready to leave.Ron's sleazy face turned a shade of green after he was provoked. "Why? Are you unwilling to give up on your role?"Can you solve the issue of the expired authorization? Are you capable of coming up with new drugs that will pass the quality inspection?"Joshua halted when he heard Ron's doubts. Ellen and Ron seemed privy to information within the company, which only strengthened Joshua's resolve to purge certain elements from the company."If we can't come up with new drugs before the authorization expires, the majority of our production lines will have to be halted. Can you handle the losses?" Ron sneered with an amused look.Natasha pressed her lips as she listened in. At that moment, she was inclined to protect the Grayson Corporation. If Joshua chose to sign the document, she might attempt to stop him, as she would never allow the company to fall into the hands of the likes of Ron and Ellen.Joshua assured Ron, "I've star

Natasha's frown deepened. She wondered if Ron had truly received Radiance Biomed's authorization and the anti-counterfeit security label.Upon hearing Ron's confident guarantee, Joshua raised a brow provocatively. "Show me the letter, then. I'll have someone examine it."Ron laughed and countered, "Do you take me as an idiot who'd hand you the letter just like that? I have to make sure it's in my hands all the time."Joshua nodded at Ron's reasoning and replied, "Fine, keep the letter. I'll arrange for someone to come in person for the authentication."Turning arrogantly to face the hesitant Ellen, Ron silently signaled her not to worry.After some contemplation, Joshua suggested, "Why don't you all come to my office?" He pressed the elevator lobby button, and the three entered the elevator.It was then Natasha slowly emerged from behind the pillar. Since she couldn't tag along, she helplessly watched as the elevator doors slid shut.Standing there, she realized there was

The office door creaked open, and a woman peeked out. Ron took a good look at the woman. Natasha Sullivan?Natalie, who noticed Ron's gaze, jumped in shock and slammed the door shut. Just now, in the heat of the moment, she tried to snoop on Joshua, wanting to know if he was at work or simply shunning her because of Natasha's badmouthing. To her surprise, the first thing that appeared in her vision field was Ron Grayson.Ron squinted at the woman who looked like Natasha Sullivan. No! She must be Natalie Lovelace. But how had Natalie returned and stayed by Joshua's side? Philip must not have heard about this.Joshua did not notice the commotion behind him and proceeded to the floor beneath. They arrived at the office a floor below and were served drinks by the assistant. Soon, Colin West entered the office and joined the three.Joshua glanced at Ron and said, "Show it."Ron carefully exhibited his precious letter of authorization and declared, "Please be thorough. This is a

Joshua looked on impassively as Ron stuffed the letter into his bag. He said, "I won't interrogate you on the forgery. The two of you may leave."Ron snorted without any hint of shame for being exposed. Instead, he spoke with a cryptic expression on his face, "It's been a while since I saw Natasha."Frowning, Joshua questioned, "What are you getting at?"Ron merely snickered. "Nothing. It was just a casual remark. It's been some time since we met.""There's no reason for you to see her." Despite not knowing what game Ron was playing, Ellen trusted that he had a plan. She couldn't help but interject, "How could you say so? She's part of the family as well. We'd like to be close with her. Isn't that normal?""I am fond of Natasha. Since it's been a while, let's meet up one day," suggested Ron with an icy smile.The frown deepened on Joshua's face. He waved at Colin and said, "Please see them out."Colin immediately gestured at Ron to leave. Ron rose from the couch and snappe
Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 64
Casting a deep look at Ellen and Ron, Joshua couldn't help but wonder what Ron was up to.The assistant suddenly opened the door and announced, "Mr. Grayson, Mr. Jenkins is at your office. He has something important to discuss, but you aren't available. Would you like to meet him now?"Matt must have shown up because he had gotten the number of Zack Lynch's personal assistant. Joshua immediately gathered himself and answered, "Let him in."When Matt entered, he said, "I ran into your uncle and aunt when I came in. Why were they here? Trying to wrestle the president role from you again?"However, Matt suddenly thought of something and questioned, "But didn't they vow never to show up at the company again?"Joshua replied calmly, "They're just a bunch of clowns. They just showed me a forged letter of authorization, trying to wrestle the president role from me."Matt snickered. "That's absurd."Joshua looked at him and asked, "Let's get down to business. Did you get the phone num
Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 65
When Joshua didn't speak, Matt glanced up only to notice the unmistakable change in Joshua's expression. He asked, "Zack didn't agree?" Joshua's eyes darkened with an enigmatic look in them.Matt observed the silent Joshua and had a vague understanding. He opened his mouth but held back the words. After a pause, he cursed, "What the hell is wrong with Zack? Does he think he's superior just because he has the authorization? How rude!"But on second thought, having authorization was rather impressive."We've even lowered our stances…" Matt trailed off upon noticing Joshua's increasingly grim face, swallowing the rest of his words.A moment of deliberation later, he spoke again, "We don't necessarily have to obtain authorization. We can search for research talent. "We might not have it easy as Radiance Biomed, but with effort, we can successfully develop a new drug before the authorization expires.""And where will you find research talent?"Matt was thrown off by Joshua's que
