Chapter 237 The Trap for BK Pharmaceuticals
Keith was taken aback, staring into William's eyes, suddenly feeling a sense of panic. 'What's going on with William? Why doesn't he seem like a useless freeloader?'
"What? Who sent me? I'm the vice chairman here. Who do you think you are to talk to me like that?"
Keith's face turned cold as he arrogantly glared at William.
William didn't back down at all and calmly said, "Here's a piece of advice: don't mess with my wife, and don't mess with me."
After all, William was the heir to a prominent family and had a good eye for people.
Keith was up to no good.
He let out a cold sneer. A loser actually dared to threaten him?
Ridiculous!
He was from the Cater family and backed by the Miller family of Sunshine Bay City. This idiot dared to be so bold.
"Alright, alright! Ms. Smith, this is your husband, truly impressive. I'll report today's incident to the board right now. Let's see how the board will think of it!"
Keith's eyes narrowed as he pulled out his phone to make a call.
But before he knew it, his phone was gone.
"How childish, tattling at your age. Are you truly a wuss?"
William toyed with the phone he had snatched from Keith, a smile playing on his face.
This company was his purchase.
The board? William had merely delegated authority.
However, he really didn't know when BK Pharmaceuticals sent a vice chairman out of nowhere.
He'd have to ask George about this later. If necessary, he might dissolve the board and hand everything over to Mary, giving her full control of the company.
"What? What did you say?" Keith's eyes widened. It was the first time someone had dared to talk back to him. He angrily said, "Ms. Smith, look at this! How can a man like him be allowed into our company?"
"Enough!" Mary's face was stern as she coldly glanced at William and said, "William is my husband. Everyone saw what happened today; it was an outsider causing trouble. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility."
"William, put the phone down and leave." Mary knew that although she was the executive director of the company and held sixty percent of the shares, she couldn't make decisions unilaterally.
There was still the board of directors behind her, which was the real power center.
Moreover, with the influx of foreign capital, BK Pharmaceuticals was no longer the same BK Pharmaceuticals.
It was a mixed bag, very lively.
William shrugged, casually tossed the phone back to Keith, gave him a cold glare, and walked out the door.
In the office, William overheard a few female employees whispering.
"The company has a new vice chairman, and he's quite handsome."
"I heard he's from the Cater family in Sunshine Bay City and has considerable influence in Lindwood City."
"A young master from Sunshine Bay City, I really hope he notices me."
"Nice dream, you little tramp!"
William listened for a bit, then turned and walked out of the company, calling George. "George, what's going on with BK Pharmaceuticals? How are there other forces buying in after I bought it? Who is this Keith?"
"Mr. Jones, this was arranged by Mrs. Caleb Jones a few days ago. She mentioned they needed someone they could trust to join in on the group's investment, so they got a guy from the Cater family to buy in.," George, who was at the airport, spoke respectfully.
William frowned. It was Jessica.
Was Jessica starting to target Mary?
Or was she trying to distract him?
"Alright, I got it." William hung up the phone, deep in thought.
Jessica was overreaching; she needed a warning.
Otherwise, she might really think William was a trapped beast.
Meanwhile, after leaving the chairman's office, Keith went to the rooftop, dialed a number, and said in a deep voice, "Mrs. Jones, the task failed. A guy named William messed it up; he's Mary's husband."
On the other end of the line, a dignified female voice replied, "Alright, I understand."
Hanging up the phone, Keith gritted his teeth. Who the heck was this William?
When it was time to leave work, Mary walked out and said to William, "Join me for dinner tonight. A business partner is coming. It's the third time already, and I can't drink. You'll have to drink for me."
William agreed without a second thought.
"Where are we going?" Once in the car, William casually asked.
From William's angle, Mary's figure was accentuated by the seatbelt, nearly startling his eyes. She had a perfect figure!
Mary's figure was just so perfect!
And in the car, Mary had already taken off her jacket, revealing a white professional blouse that looked very sexy and elegant.
"Majestic Grand," Mary replied as she began touching up her makeup. She represented BK Pharmaceuticals, so her appearance was crucial, especially for a significant partnership involving the sale of a new anti-cancer drug.
The launch of this new drug could propel BK Pharmaceuticals to the forefront of the national pharmaceutical industry.
"Hey, do I look okay?"
Mary glanced at the mirror and asked William.
William turned his head and smiled, "You look great. My wife is the most beautiful woman."
Mary rolled her eyes at him but felt happy inside. "You're sweet."
Suddenly, she remembered something and said, "By the way, William, accompany me for a prenatal checkup in a few days."
William nodded and said, "From now on, I'll pick you up and drop you off at work. Don't overwork yourself; you're pregnant now."
Mary sighed, "Oh, I'm not a child. I know my limits; I'm not that weak."
At the Majestic Grand, the business partner had been waiting at the entrance and saw a BMW 5 Series pull up.
Joshua Sanchez had dressed up today, wearing a sharp suit that accentuated his handsome features, with a faint smile on his face.
When he saw Mary get out of the car, a subtle, lecherous smile appeared on his lips.
Tonight, he had set up a trap. As long as he could get Mary tonight, Joshua didn't believe that the high and mighty Mary could maintain her cold and noble demeanor in front of him!
Before coming to Lindwood City, Joshua had specifically investigated BK Pharmaceuticals and its new chairwoman, Mary.
A rare beauty indeed.
But unfortunately, she had a useless husband and a sickly daughter.
The previous three meetings with Mary had ended unpleasantly, but this time, he was determined to win her over.
Just thinking about the scene of the voluptuous Mary, who had always been indifferent to him, begging for mercy excited Joshua.
Joshua adjusted his tie and strode out. When he saw William following closely behind Mary, his face instantly darkened.
Bringing a man to dinner, what did that make of him?
Joshua had planned this setup for a long time and wouldn't allow any surprises!
Anyone who stood in Joshua's way either ended up dead or crippled!
Behind Joshua was the Sanchez family, which had influence throughout the southern region.
This time, the trap set for BK Pharmaceuticals was closing in tightly.
This was a piece of cake, and once bitten into, it was all money!
Especially with the investment from the Jones Group in Imperial City.
"Ms. Smith, I've been waiting for you." Joshua adjusted his tie, forced a smile, and walked out, extending his large hand to shake Mary's delicate one.
Her hands were cold and soft, like boneless jade.
Tonight, he was determined to conquer Mary and the BK Pharmaceuticals behind her!
William followed behind Mary and noticed the slight displeasure on his face.
William was also annoyed, but this was business, and a handshake was a formality he couldn't avoid.
One second, two seconds... Joshua was mesmerized by Mary's beauty and forgot to let go.
Mary frowned. She hadn't planned to come, but BK Pharmaceuticals had business dealings with the other party, especially regarding sales channels, which left her no choice!
BK Pharmaceuticals recently developed a new anti-cancer drug with a cure rate of 70%!
This was more than double the cure rate of any current anti-cancer drugs on the market!
It was arguably the most effective anti-cancer drug in human history!
BK Pharmaceuticals had invested heavily in the research and development of this drug, which was still in clinical trials.
If successful, it would bring not only enormous profits but also international attention. It would become the world's first highly effective anti-cancer drug!
BK Pharmaceuticals had initiated the highest level of confidentiality for this new drug, which was known only to the directly involved researchers, the board of directors, and Mary.
The sales partner for the new anti-cancer drug, the Sanchez Group, controlled one-third of the sales channels in the southern region and had substantial resources and economic strength.
Therefore, Mary was very keen on collaborating with the Sanchez Group.
However, the Sanchez Group's demands were excessive as they asked for 60% of the profits!
Mary withdrew her hand and smiled slightly, "Mr. Sanchez, shall we go inside?"
Joshua awkwardly smiled and explained, "You look so beautiful today; I was almost mesmerized by you."
Damn!
William's face turned cold when he heard this.
He was right here, okay?
