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.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA 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 heard 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!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, 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!”
