Chapter 519 Michael , already irritated , snapped at Andrew .


    Were talking about serious corporate business here- high level coborations .


    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 mighte up with something that would send his blood pressure through the roof .


    Andrew replied calmly , Who said I dont understand When ites 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 some kind of expert in medicine ? What , are you iming to be a miracle -working doctor or something ? To Ruby , Andrew was just ackey trying to pick a fight for Laurens sake nothing more than a clueless , ipetent man , unworthy of her attention However , as soon as she finished her mockery , she noticed something strange .


    Michael , Troy , and the other executives looked ufortable , 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 .


    Rubys 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 remainedposed .


    No need for ttery , Ms.


    Dickinson .


    Since this is a partnership , I assume I 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 coboration 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 * +  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 dontck funding .


    So , this coboration 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 .


    The mention of a two billion dor 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 .


    Onest question .


    What exactly does Amberpeak Corporation want Rhodes Corporation to produce ? Are we 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 aremon in the pharmaceutical market , and Amberpeak Corporation doesntck 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 .
