Over the next few days, Emmanuel’s family resigned from their respective family businesses and transferred their shares to Victoria.

Victoria was not acting on a whim; she really did kick the Miranda family out of the family business.

This old lady always put her family’s interests first.

She really didn’t want Miranda to be punished by the Austin family, so she ruthlessly cut ties between the Lowe family and Miranda.

It must be said that she was heartless to an extreme degree.

Emmanuel transferred his shares for free because of his filial piety towards his mother. However, Miranda and Cara were cold-hearted towards Victoria for being so ruthless. They demanded every penny they deserved for their shares without any discount!

Victoria was furious about this and disliked her granddaughter and daughter-in-law even more in her heart. After taking over Lowe’s Pharmaceutical, Romeo directly contacted those big distributors and had them send people over to change contracts with significantly higher drug prices. This would normally be considered a breach of contract, but capital ultimately pursued profits above all else.

Nowadays, all four new drugs from Lowe’s Pharmaceutical were extremely popular in Merton – many people across the country even came there hoping to get lucky enough to buy them. In this situation where getting hold of these drugs was profitable no matter what price they were sold at, these distributors can earn even more money if they raised prices too!

Although these distributors admired Miranda’s honesty in pricing at first, they eventually compromised anyway by sending representatives over to sign new contracts with higher prices.

In the Lowe family estate!

“Romeo, you did a great job with this! With this operation, our family is set to make at least tens of millions more in profit this year!” Victoria praised Romeo for his work.

“That’s right! The foreign company that produces the drug entered the top 500 companies in the world just by selling this one drug. If these drugs continue to be so popular, I believe that our family will become a first-class family in the state and even across the country! Mom, you’ll be the richest person in the state and even across the country when that happens! Haha…” Romeo boasted proudly.

“Well done! Romeo, you’re decisive and resourceful. In business, Miranda was too foolish to think starting a company was charity. My decision to let you take over Lowe’s Pharmaceutical is absolutely correct!” Victoria was so pleased with her second son’s flattery that she became dizzy.

The mention of Miranda brought out an unmistakable expression of dislike and resentment from Victoria.

That afternoon, Lachlan had just finished helping Miranda with some work on their new production line when he received a call from Albie.

“Mr. Willis, I’m back from Yeginia. As expected, I brought back two herbs suspected to be Dragon Marrow Herb. When do you have time to come over?” said Albie.

Upon hearing this news, Lachlan was immediately excited. “Great, I’ll head over there right away!”

He never stopped thinking about completely curing little Nora’s leukemia and didn’t want to waste a single moment. After Albie sent him the address, Lachlan set off directly.

The Elliott’s Pharmaceutical Wholesale Company was located in the western suburbs of Edoland and covered an area of 20, 000 square meters. In addition to warehouses and logistics centers, there were also office buildings, employee sports halls, dormitories and other buildings. It can be seen that Albie was the largest medicinal herb wholesaler in Kreanford with considerable strength. Even most local medicinal herb merchants purchased from him.

When Lachlan arrived at the company after calling Albie but being told he was busy receiving guests today, so he sent a female secretary out to greet him instead. Following her into the company courtyard they saw a pickup truck just driving in and an eye-catching figure getting out of it.

Seeing this person surprised Lachlan as it turned out to be Scarlet who asked upon seeing him, “Lachlan, is that you? What are you doing here?”

Scarlet’s beautiful eyes lit up when she saw Lachlan approaching her and she greeted him warmly, which was quite different from last time when she ignored him altogether.

She worked at the Edoland Institute of Biology, where her research often required the use of exotic plants. This was why she had a working relationship with Albie. Every time Albie went to Yeginia, he would also transport some special plants back for them. Scarlet was here this time to pick up some cargo.

“Scarlet,” Lachlan nodded and smiled at her as he greeted her casually.

Scarlet’s smile suddenly became unnatural.

The next second, she glared at Lachlan with displeasure and walked quickly towards a nearby warehouse, familiar with the route here. Because of last time’s incident, Scarlet had changed her opinion about Lachlan; she admired him but also felt ashamed. She just didn’t say it out loud.

This time when she saw Lachlan again, she wanted to restore their previously close relationship like before. However, his behavior was different than what she expected – polite and smiling on the surface but actually keeping an unexplainable distance from her.

As a wealthy heiress, Scarlet was used to being flattered everywhere she went. But this time when trying to get closer to him herself, he treated her like this – distant and cold-hearted towards her attempts at friendliness.

The discontent in the heart of the rich girl was palpable.

“What’s so great about him? If you don’t want to talk to me, then I won’t talk to you either! Hmph…” She inwardly cursed Lachlan and his arrogance. Lachlan sensed Scarlet’s frustration, but shrugged it off.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Just then, his phone rang. He checked it and thought to himself how coincidental it was that Zak was calling.

“Mr. Harris, what’s up?” Lachlan asked.

“Mr. Willis, where are you? I need your help with something!” Zak sounded urgent on the phone.

“What do you need?” Lachlan replied nonchalantly.

“We’ve got some leads on those foreign mercenaries who attacked Stephen’s team last time. They’re a group of skilled fighters from Skiola led by Sagi Fujino – they might even be stronger than me! According to reliable sources, these damn outsiders are now hiding out at Elliott’s Medicinal Wholesale Base. And guess who happens to be there too? Scarlet!”

Zak urgently and worriedly asked, “Mr. Willis, I can’t make it there in time. Can you do me a favor and go to the Elliott’s Medicinal Company right away to protect Scarlet? I suspect that these people from Skiola might be targeting her!”

Lachlan raised his eyebrows and said, “I happen to be here too.”

“That’s great! Mr. Willis, please help me out with this. Protect Scarlet for me while I gather my men,” Zak pleaded.

“Sure thing,” Lachlan agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Lachlan turned to the female secretary and apologized for delaying her. “Sorry about that. I’ll see you later with Mr. Elliott.”

The secretary waved her hand dismissively and said, “No worries at all, Mr. Willis! Mr. Elliott said you’re his honored guest; just let me know if you need anything.”

Lachlan nodded before quickly catching up with Scarlet.

Not knowing what was going on, she looked back when she saw Lachlan approaching her and asked irritably, “What do you want?”

“What are you doing? Let me accompany you,” he replied calmly.

Hearing this, Scarlet raised an eyebrow and looked at Lachlan with confusion written all over her face.

“Accompany me? Weren’t you just showing off how cool you are? Who needs your company?” she retorted.
