Chapter 519 Michael, already irritated, snapped at Andrew.
Were talking about serious corporate business here- high level collaborations.
Do you even understand what that means? If you dont, stop interrupting just to make yourself seen! Michael was already annoyed earlier by Andrews suggestions and now, with Andrew raising another question, a wave of dread swept over him.
He feared Andrew might cup with something that would send his blood pressure through the roof.
Andrew replied calmly, Who said I dont understand When it comes to pharmaceuticals, none of you here are even qualified to speak in my presence.
Ruby sneered.
Mr.
Lloyd, lets not pretend you know what youre talking about.
Are you seriously trying to convince us that youre skind of expert in medicine? What, are you claiming to be a miracle -working doctor or something? To Ruby, Andrew was just a lackey trying to pick a fight for Laurens sake nothing more than a clueless, incompetent man, unworthy of her attention However, as soon as she finished her mockery, she noticed something strange.
Michael, Troy, and the other executives looked uncomfortable, as though they wanted to say something but hesitated.
Lauren smirked and said, Ruby, youre not entirely wrong.
Mr.
Lloyd is a doctor and not just any doctor.
Hes a legendary healer who can cure virtually anything.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRubys eyes widened in shock.
Mr.
Rhodes, Mr.
MacAfee, is that true? Michael, unwilling but unable to lie, grudgingly admitted, Yes, Mr.
Lloyds medical skills are truly extraordinary.
In this field, hes an expert.
Rubys expression shifted, her confidence shaken, though she forced a stiff smile.
Well, I didnt expect Mr.
Lloyd to have such capabilities.
Andrew remained composed.
No need for flattery, Ms.
Dickinson.
Since this is a partnership, I assI can ask a few relevant questions, right? Rubys smile turned strained.
Of course, Mr.
Lloyd.
But you must understand that Im only a representative of Amberpeak Corporation.
Im not an expert in technical or medical matters.
Andrew spoke with an unhurried tone.
Thats fine.
The questions I have are basic and dont involve technical details.
But if you cant answer even these, it might call into question just how legitimate your role as Amberpeak Corporations representative really is.
Ruby silently cursed him but forced herself to respond Alright, Mr.
Lloyd.
If you have questions, Ill answer what I can, though I reserve the right to withhold information regarding trade secrets or proprietary matters.
Andrew nodded.
First question this collaboration with Rhodes Corporation, is it a direct investment from Amberpeak Corporation, a joint research effort, or are you simply looking to use Rhodes Corporation as a manufacturing partner ? 1/2 * + 25 BONUS Chapter 519 Ruby exhaled slightly in relief at the question, smiling as she replied.
Amberpeak Corporations capabilities in research and development are already industry leading, and we dont lack funding.
So, this collaboration is purely for Rhodes Corporation to manufacture our products.
The initial order is worth two billion.
Well transfer the payment immediately as soon as the products are produced.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe mention of a two billion dollar order caused the executives eyes to light up with excitement.
They were clearly tempted.
Andrew scoffed.
So, youre asking Rhodes Corporation to manufacture the products first and then Amberpeak will pay afterward? Ruby responded with a confident tone. Of course.
While the terms might seem strict, Mr.
Lloyd, dont forget that Amberpeak Corporation has the reputation and resources to justify such demands.
Andrew nodded.
One last question.
What exactly does Amberpeak Corporation want Rhodes Corporation to produce? Are wen talking about health supplements, therapeutic products, or disease treatments? Ruby shook her head, smiling as if Andrews question were naive. None of those, Mr.
Lloyd.
The products you mentioned are common in the pharmaceuticalm market and Amberpeak Corporation doesnt lack any of them. We need Rhodes Corporation to manufacture a specialized pill.
The specific ingredients and functions are detailed in the documents we provided earlier.
If you have concerns, you can take a closer look at those.
