Chapter 318
ke, who was about to head to his bedroom to rest, frowned and asked, “What happened?”
Before <b>Ray </b>could answer, Pable came in. <b>Ray </b>backed out of the door and went to prepare the car.
<b>Pablo </b>did not say anything and simply handed ke the tablet.
ke took it <b>and </b>opened it. It was information about the group of people who had just been arrested, including verified evidence.
Before he had even finished looking, his heart sank.
The Andrews family, as members of Conrad University’s board and affiliated with Conrad Hospital would be implicated. Coupled with the matter of the special organizations, the public’s perception of the Andrews family was likely affected.
The mastermind behind these organizations had not yet been found. It was clear <b>that </b>only someone with extraordinary power could control everything in Iverton and do as they pleased.
Andrews Group had already stayed at the top of the <b>pyramid </b>for a long time. Countless family experts sought to rece them, willing to tarnish their reputation and spread damaging rumors.
Furthermore, there was the possibility that someone behind the scenes <b>was </b>using
ng the Andrews family for their own <b>purposes</b>.
“Mr. Andrews. Mr. Tanner has arrived and is eager <b>to </b>see you.” the servant reported hurriedly as he entered the room.
ke’s expression turned grim. This was Phillip’s doing, and ke <b>had </b>been intending to see him
Phillip had better provide a clear exnation, otherwise, the entire Tanner family would be at risk.
“Let him in.” ke turned and sat down on the gold–framed briar chair at the head of the table.
After getting permission. Phillip rushed in. The moment he entered, he saw ke who appeared slightly angered <b>and </b>exuded an aura of Thunderous intensity. Phillip’s heart skipped a beat, <b>and </b>he instinctively lowered his head.
“Mr. Andrews he <b>said</b>, stepping forward and greeting ke from across the golden table.
ke lifted his gaze to look at him. His eyes, shadowed by deep wrinkles, glinted with <b>a </b><b>sharp </b>light. Under themp’s glow, the glint in his eyes was as piercing <b>as </b>a de.
Phillip immediately apologized. This incident has brought scandal to Conrad University and Conrad Hospital<b>. </b>I was wrong. I’m here to exin
ke just looked at him in silence
Phillip exined, Igora clue about Riverview Hospital having drugs that can enhance human capabilities <b>and </b>increase physical strength. <b>An </b>underground boxing champion, Yannis <b>Sanders</b>, was severely injured and nearly died in Vaporton City six months ago. Yet he recovered quickly and has since defeated all his international opponents. On the other hand, the security guards in the hospital be top–tier experts<b>, </b><b>and </b>even retired special forces soldiers from the military are no match for them. They do indeed have such a miraculous divine medicine in their hands But, they don’t spread it to <b>outsiders </b>and only use it internally.”
“Look, these are the documents, Phillip said as he handed over
ke did not take the file but continued to look at him solemnly<b>. </b>
Of course, he knew that what Phillip sud was true. Rick’s <b>fate </b>spoke for itself.
Sensing his anger, Phillip ced the document on the table in <b>front </b>of him and continued to exin, “Special organizations are indeed investigating the development of these drugs. The first–generation gene <b>drugs </b>have been circting on the ck <b>marker </b>for two or three years. They’ve been tracking this case for a long time, which is why they’ve focused on Riverview Hospital”
He paused and <b>gulped</b><b>. </b>His throat was starting to dry out, and he had left out some details<b>, </b>such as who was leading the <b>special </b>organizations investigation, the purpose of the investigation, and how it rted to him,
“Conrad University and the hospital are indeed researching gene drugs, Phillip said, lowering his head even further in earnest.
ke’s eyes widened <b>as </b>he <b>looked </b><b>up </b>at him, feeling a deep shock.
Phillip slowly <b>lifted </b>his <b>head</b>, straightened his chest, and looked resolute. He didn’t believe he had done anything wrong. Instead, he was firmly dedicated to hismitment to the medical field.
He continued, “For decades and even centuries, we have never given up on research and exploration of medical technology. Gene drugs are merely a result of our failures and mistakes <b>made </b>during the research process. But which <b>advancement </b>or <b>sess </b>wasn’t achieved through countless
Chapter 318
failures and mistakes! Our <b>original </b>intention was not wrong. It was pure and innocent!”
“We..he choked up. pressed his lips together, and didn’t say more. Tears shimmered in his eyes, revealing <b>a </b>stubbornmitment <b>to </b>medical
research.
ke’s expression changed slightly.
In nearly a century, societal and technological advancements had progressed rapidly. Yet, every technological breakthrough and new development hade only after countless failures and numerous mistakes.
He understood and respected <b>such </b>a spirit, as it was also has own way of doing things.
<b>“</b><b>So</b><b>, </b>you are the ones who developed gene drugs!”
“Not exactly.” Phillip <b>said</b>, softening his tone. “We were researching this kind of drug, but after discovering the defects, we ceased further research So, <b>up </b>until now<b>, </b>our research has only been on iplete versions.”
“But we were used by Kurt As Phillip spoke, he handed over Kurt’s information.
With the previous context as a foundation, ke’s anger subsided significantly. He took the <b>Information </b>and began to examine it carefully.
After a while. Phillip added, “Ti was also my oversight that I didn’t notice the private transactions between Zeke and him.”
Zeke Lancaster was the person in charge of the hospital’sboratory. He <b>was </b>already seventy years old.
Phillip and Zeke were very close to each other, so Phillip addressed him as such.
Phillip continued, “You know Mr. Lancaster’s personality. He was obsessed with developing new <b>drugs</b>, so he left Conrad University 20 years ago to focus on research in the hospital. Now that he is older, he has be even more stubborn and extreme, going to great lengths for sess. He is Kurt’s primary physician, and they have a close rtionship. It is precisely because of this that he <b>was </b>exploited by Kurt Gene drugs have the potential to cure cancer!.
After reviewing the information and hearing this, ke’s attitude softened, and he sighed
Not to mention <b>these </b>people, even he was tempted.
He threw the documents onto the <b>table</b><b>. </b>
Phillip nced at him and assured him, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle this matter properly and make sure <b>that </b>neither the school nor the hospital is affected” ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
ke had nothing more to say after that. He would just wait for the result.
He responded with <b>a </b>nod
Thank you for your understanding. Mr. Andrews, I’ll go meet Mr. Brooks and exin the situation now. Is there <b>anything </b>eke you’d like to instruct me to do?” Phillip’s attitude became increasingly respectful.
“Go ahead,” ke said
said indifferently.
The Tanner family and the Andrews Group had no direct rtionship, and there was no real connection between them. They <b>rarely </b>met<b>, </b><b>and </b>even if they did at board meetings, they would only greet each other formally like other colleagues.
Morcover, Andrews Group might not even bother with someone like him.
This time, it was because of Lea that they <b>had </b>these two meetings and conversations.
<b>“</b>Alright, Phillip said.
Phillip left the hall, where the driver was waiting outside. He got into the car and then left
Inside the hall, Ray brought a <b>heavy </b>ck overcoat.
“Sir, do you believe what he said?” Ray felt the person’s intentions were not pure and suggested ke pay closer attention.
ke snorted coldly. What he needed to persuade John and the others to exin society as a whole.
As for him, as long as the Andrews family wasn’t affected, meaning the university and hospital remained unaffected, he wasn’t concerned with these details and wouldn’t meddle in trivial matters.
Yet his mood grew heavy, and his expression turned somber
In the target of the special organizations Leu? he thought.
Chapter 318
Now, not only had he gotten himself entangled, but Conrad Hospital had also been dragged in, and even Conrad University was <b>caught </b><b>up </b>in it.
The key to all of this was Lea. After being detained for over fifty days, she suddenly proved her innocence, causing them to reveal their true <b>colors</b>.
That little girl really surprised him this time.
Thinking about what Phillip said about the drugs being developed at Riverview Hospital, the behavior of Lea’s subordinates, and her own cunning and methods, ke began to understand why she was so bold in her attitude toward him and why she spoke to him with such confidence. He now grasped where her assurance came from
<b>As </b>an opponent, she certainly had some weight.
But as a granddaughter–inw and the wife of <b>a </b>member of the Andrews family, she was even more unquali?ed.
