Chapter 707 Lauren said , Dr.
Lloyd , Im going with you to the Jayrodale Grand Hotel tomorrow ! Andrew waved his hand dismissively , No need .
Were at a critical stage with our pharmaceutical productunch right now .
You and Mr.
Chapman are already swamped , so just stay focused on the product ! Lauren frowned with concern .
But I dont feelfortable letting you go alone! Andrew replied calmly , Rx .
Im going there to reason with Raymond .
Weve got the facts on our side , so theres nothing to fear , no matter how many people he brings .
Lauren could not hold back her anxiety .
Raymonds got Winston backing him up , and they have no intention of ying fair .
Theyre just trying to strong arm us , Dr.
Lloyd You know that better than anyone ! Andrews eyes darkened , but his tone remained steady .
In this world , everything should be resolved through reason .
But if brute force is the solution , then I prefer it that way .
That was his principle : if no one messed with Andrew , he would not mess with them .
However , if some entitled rich kid thought he could show up and start throwing his weight around , Andrew could not care what his background was he would stomp him into the ground just the same .
After work , Andrew drove straight to Moonlit Sanctuary , nning to get some rest .
Just then , his phone rang Stephens anxious voice came through the line .
Mr.
Lloyd , youve been quiet for the past two days , but Raymond is absolutely furious ! Andrew remained indifferent .
Let him rage .
What does that have to do with me ? Stephen let out a bitter chuckle .
Raymonds going all out to put on a show .
Not only did he invite Winston , but a bunch of Jayrodales most influential people were also attending .
You ignoring him for two days has humiliated him in front of everyone .
If you show up tomorrow , hes definitely going to get physical .
Maybe you should just skip the meeting altogether .
Andrew sneered .
Are you suggesting I back down like a coward ? Stephen quickly corrected himself .
Of course not ! I just think the Reckoning Toast is probably ruined anyway , so theres no point in confronting Raymond head on .
Once he cools off , I can step in and try to negotiate .
Maybe we can smooth things over- Andrew cut him off .
Theres nothing to smooth over .
He went out of his way to make this a big deal .
Honestly , it saves me the trouble of doing it myself .
With everyone watching , Ill show up tomorrow and ept an apology from the Chapmans .
With that , Andrew hung up .
Sleep was far more important to him , and everything else was just noise .
At Glorious Pharmaceuticals , Stephen held his phone with a deep sigh .
He had just pledged loyalty to Andrew , and now trouble hade knocking .
If Andrew got crushed by Raymond and Winston , then he had bet on the wrong side .
Should I pull out now and cut ties with Andrew and Rhodes Corporation ? He muttered to himself , torn between choices .
Finally , his expression hardened .
Screw it .
They say loyalty is tested in tough times .
Maybe Mr.
Lloyd really has a hidden ace up his sleeve to deal with the Chapmans and Winston .
If thats the case , my loyalty now will earn me his trust in the long run .
Chapter 707 Stephen had been ying the game long enough to know how to survive .
Right now , everyone in Jayrodale thought Andrew was doomed .
By all logic , he should quietly back away from this mess .
Nheless , fortune favored the bold , and high risk meant high reward .
Stephen had made it this far by taking risks ; this time , he was going all in .
In the worst case scenario , he would end up broke and begging on the streets .
However , if he won , he would be living the high life , with money and power at his fingertips .
A notification beep interrupted Andrews sleep , and he grumbled , Who the hell is texting me at this hour ? Squinting , he unlocked his phone it was Francesca .
[ Andrew , I cant sleep .
] Andrew immediately knew what this meant .
That big breasted little tease was trying to seduce him again in the middle of the night .
