Chapter 722 The Tables Have Turned 1
“That’s why we must take the most drastic approach this time. We must boycott Dream Pharmaceutical
in the name of the association and the pharmaceutical industry. I’ll not allow any tragedy to happen again
before we obtain credible findings from investigations. That’s all I have to say!” As soon as Saunder
finished his announcement, the crowd instantly responded with applause.
Thomas and Yara exchanged looks and smiled. They knew that Dream Pharmaceutical would fall from
grace after this conference. There’s nothing they can do even after obtaining credible findings from
investigations! Dream Pharmaceutical would have a hard time making a comeback since its reputation
would have been tarnished by the time they had completed the investigations.
The host then said in a serious voice, “Thank you for your speech, Mr. Todd. Next, we’ll welcome
Dexmed Pharmaceutical’s CEO, Mr. Thomas Nichols, to deliver his speech.”
A crew member passed the microphone over to Thomas.
Thomas cleared his throat and was about to deliver his speech. All of a sudden, everyone in the hall
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtheard a screech that hurt their ears.
“What’s going on? What’s with the sharp noise from the microphone? Get someone to solve this problem
right now!” Thomas’ expression turned grim as he yelled, but the screech was so loud that no one could
hear him.
The noise lasted for quite a while. Once the microphone stopped making those sharp noises, a
technician walked up to Thomas to inspect the device.
The host felt awkward but tried to pull himself together. He attempted to distract the audience from the
incident. Yet, his microphone failed to work too when he spoke into it.
“What’s happening now? Everything was fine before this.”
“How could they allow this kind of technical error to happen? Don’t they know this is an important event?”
“This is ridiculous! It is going to affect the live stream viewership! What the hell, man!”
The journalists started grumbling as they could not believe that the organizer would make such a
blunder.
While Yara looked in Thomas’ direction, she had an ominous feeling about the situation. She felt as
though something bad was going to happen.
She then turned her gaze to Samuel, who was sitting in the audience.
While everyone at the event was running around like headless chickens, Samuel remained inexplicably
calm, as if the disruption did not affect him at all.
There was an air of aloofness about him, and a corner of his mouth seemed quirked up. It was as if he
had seen this coming.
He’s obviously waiting for the drama to unfold.
Wait. Drama? What drama?
Yara’s eyes narrowed at that thought, and her heart started pounding. Does it have something to do with
Natalie? Is she going to make a comeback? No. No way. That’s impossible!
Suddenly, the sound system started functioning as usual again.
Thomas immediately took out a handkerchief to wipe away the sweat on his face. Laughing wryly, he
was about to continue with his speech.

But before he could open his mouth, a voice had emerged from the sound system.
“Mr. Todd, I’ve emailed you the press statement. You just need to read it out accordingly.”
“But…”
“Remember the exquisite vase that you had your eyes on? I’ve delivered it to your house. Just read the
press statement as it is, don’t worry. You’re an influential figure in the industry, so it’ll make a big
difference if you’re the one reading out the press statement. Once Dexmed Pharmaceutical acquires
Dream Pharmaceutical, I’ll transfer three percent of the shares to your name!”
Saunder could be heard laughing before he said, “All right! You can count on me. We might not have the
official findings from the investigations, but the boycott announcement would be the death of Dream
Pharmaceutical!”
“I’m sure you have the power to do that, Mr. Todd!”
The recording instantly sent the crowd into a frenzy.
All the journalists aimed their cameras at Thomas and Saunder.
“What’s with this under-the-table deal between you and Mr. Nichols? Please explain!”
