“Why Mr. Julian is here?” Billy Hilton asked with squinted eyes.
Julian smiled, sitting on the sofa besides.
“I am worried now, the sales volume of the new drugs from the Joseph’s Group increases again,” Julian
said.
“Currently there is no the same type of drugs being marketed by other medical companies, it is just
around the corner that the Joseph’s Group would be soon to have a monopoly on the drug’s market,”
answered by Billy Hilton with a calm sound.
“It can be a big strike for the Hilton’s Group.”
“Exactly. But, what do you want, Julian?”
Julian sneered sarcastically while passing a piece of information to Billy.
“Currently the drugs from the Joseph’s Group are the bestseller, however, the price is higher than the
market price. It could be an idea that we create another type of drug with a lower price to replace it.”
Billy frowned. It sounded a good idea but it was surprising as the product could only be done quickly by
the Hilton’s Group.
“Don’t worry. If there is something wrong with the Joseph’s Group, I will make you occupying the
leading position.”
“Currently I am just a shareholder. I have to resign from the Joseph’s Group as the old master want to
transfer me to Africa.”
“Don’t worry, you will be back soon.”
…
The open court session for the case of intentional injury made by Veronica was just around the corner.
The image of the Joseph’s Group was affected after the news was being reported. Oppositely, the
stock price of the Hilton’s Group started to rebound.
Outside the Joseph’s Group company, there were a lot of reporters who surrounded Joseph upon
seeing him.
“Mr. Joseph, what is your opinion on Miss Veronica being charged for the case of intentional injury?”
“Is that because of personal matters that lead Miss Veronica towards conducting an intentional injury to
others?”
“Mr Joseph…”
“…”
Without uttering a word, Joseph looked pale in his face. He was uneasy with the situation.
Upon getting into the car, Joseph then instructed John to settle the problem of public relation.
Inside his heart, Joseph knew well, he was sure that it was done by Billy.
On the other side at Joseph’s family, Mathew started worrying and panicking as the case had indirectly
brought significant impact on both the Joseph’s Group and Joseph’s family.
“Joseph, grandpa is more worried about Veronica than others,” said by Mathew with a calm sound.
Mathew knew well inside his heart, he knew Veronica was not be able to sustain this big obstacle as
she was getting hurt before and yet, Veronica still did not know this matter. Undoubtedly, she would
know it once she went out.
“All the news tonight will be withdrawn,” Joseph said.
“I hope so. When is the open court session?” asked by Mathew
“Next Monday.”
Currently, Joseph and Quinn Davis took their turns to look after Veronica. Joseph walked towards
Veronica’s room after picking up the meal from the maid.
Veronica showed a calm face upon seeing her brother.
She looked emotionless with her eyes looking at the window.
“Come here for the meal please, sister.”
“Brother, let’s announce the matters in those years. Can we?”
Upon hearing this, Joseph went speechless and he looked even paler in his face.
This was not the result that he hoped to see.
“I will not agree,” still, Joseph replied with the same sentence.
But Veronica was very stubborn. “If not, I will only be jailed,” sneered by Veronica.
Joseph was shocked by her words, he looked more colder in his eyes.
Joseph stood at the balcony after leaving Veronica’s room, pondering long and deeply over the matter
while lighting up a cigarette that caught between the fingers without smoking it. Joseph then bounced
off the cigarette ashes when the cigarette burnt to his skin.
In his hand, he was holding an Ipad which played a video about Veronica’s accident. Paused a while,
he then quickly deleted the video.
His face darkened and he stiffened himself with clenched fist.
The open court session was just around the corner but the case became a hot discussion that revolved
around the public. Although the Joseph’s Group had settled the public relation problem, still, there were
some scattered reports regarding the case being reported.
Joseph was working at the Joseph’s Group as usual, but everyone knew well, he was in emotion and
thus, it made those executives who entered his office more anxious.
Even John, who was usually calm and rational, became helpless and confused when a report kept
rejecting by Joseph.
John knew …only Kathy was the one who was able to calm Joseph’s mood. But…he dared not to find
Kathy as he knew both Kathy and Joseph had divorced.
Late at night, the team which was in charge of doing the research and development of LD drug was
arranged and the laboratory of the Joseph’s Group had been well renovated. It was predicted that the
process of the research and development could be recovered by tomorrow.
This had noticed Kathy and she was perturbed after thinking of the idea of going to the Joseph’s Group
company tomorrow since it seemed such a long time that after three days passed without seeing
Joseph.
Opposite, Zofia was making a call with Veronica. The day after tomorrow was the open court session
for the case of intentional injury made by Veronica. However, the evidence collected mostly pointed
towards Veronica, and thus, undoubtedly, there was a possibility that she would be sentenced.
The next day, Kathy came early to the Joseph’s Group.
“Miss Kathy,” greeted politely by John when he encountered Kathy at the entrance.
“Hello!”
“It seemed that Mr Joseph was in a poor way recently,” John blurted out as he couldn’t hold it.
Kathy frowned. She then started looking at John doubtfully.
She was worrying about Joseph but she didn’t want to know more about him as it would only make
herself softhearted.
“His matter…is none of my business,” Kathy replied indifferently.
After finishing her words, Kathy entered the lift quickly. However, her mood started swinging due to
John’s words.
Due to a new change of the research team, everyone had to re-cooperate, and the previous research
result had to be removed and restarted.
Morning time passed and it was now afternoon time when Kathy was free enough to have her lunch
together with two of her colleagues at the restaurant in Joseph’s Group. Since the lunch time passed,
there were not many people.
“How come the research team was changed suddenly? Isn’t the Joseph’ Group wasting the resources
since the research process has started but now all have to restart,” said by one colleague.
“It could be the reason of Mr Joseph who dissatisfied with the progress of works of the previous
research team. It is impossible for us to guess our leader’s mind,” answered by another colleague while
leaving his sight on Kathy.
“Kathy, do you know the reason hidden behind since you are so close with Mr Joseph.”
Kathy focused on having her own meal without participating in the conversation when she was shocked
by the moment that she was asked with the question.
In fact, Kathy knew it. She seemed to know that it was due to the reason that she was being repelled
by her previous teammates.
It was not the result that she hoped to see, but, it was done by Joseph.
“Kathy?” Her friends asked while doubtfully looked at her who was holding her breath at the moment.
Kathy recovered from her surprise out of sudden, while shaking her head, saying “I don’t know.”
At that moment, there was a presence of a long and slim shadow at the entrance of the restaurant
where the man wore a white shirt and a black slack, his aura was outstanding amongst the crowd,
elegant and noble.
Joseph was always such glamorous and charming.
Kathy moved her sight away from Joseph immediately, but she was seen by the latter.
Joseph frowned, he then walked towards Kathy.
John, who followed behind Joseph, felt more relaxed.
