Chapter 329 The Visitor Has Ill Intentions!
Standing behind Evander, Keith watched the cruise ship gradually enter the port. He asked, "Dad, why are you so nervous? It's just a Henderson. Is it really necessary? Without the Henderson family, can't we still get things done?"
'We have backing - The Miller family! That's the truly powerful family!' Keith thought to himself.
Keith's words were indeed filled with dissatisfaction. Last time, he was beaten up for speaking on behalf of Archibald. He originally thought Archibald, as a young master of the Henderson family, would be quite powerful. But after that incident, he realized he had misjudged.
He believed that the power of the Henderson family had been exaggerated.
They didn't even dare to deal with that loser, William.
He had waited so long, yet he hadn't seen any action from them, including Archibald, who arrogantly looked down on the Cater family.
Evander turned around and glared at Keith. Knowing what Keith was thinking he snapped, "Shut up! You caused the trouble, and now you want to drag Archibald into it. Do you really think the Henderson family has no power? Don't you dare say anything later, or I'll freeze your funds!"
When Keith heard this, his face changed, and he grunted, no longer speaking.
Evander continued, "I have no objection if you want to deal with William, but you need to choose the right time. Our primary task now is to acquire BK Pharmaceuticals. Once we have it, you can deal with him and Mary however you want! But until then, you better behave!"
The cruise ship had already docked at the port. Archibald, dressed in a white suit, was extremely dazzling. He walked down from the deck step by step with Larkin following behind him.
Archibald only brought three people on this trip, Larkin, a secretary, and a bodyguard.
In his eyes, with Larkin behind him, he didn't need any bodyguards!
Evander hurriedly went up to greet him, smiling as he greeted, "Hello, Mr. Henderson. You must be tired from the journey."
When his gaze met Larkin's, Evander was suddenly stunned. He had seen Larkin before!
Many years ago, Evander had the honor of attending a party in Imperial City. At that time, the head of the Henderson family had Larkin by his side!
"Larkin, I didn't expect you to come too," Evander quickly said respectfully.
Larkin just nodded silently without saying much.
Archibald smiled and replied, "I didn't expect Larkin to be more famous than me."
Evander smiled as well and explained, "Many years ago, thanks to your father's favor, I had the chance to meet him at a party."
Archibald didn't pursue the matter further and said lightly, "This time in Lindwood City, I don't want any more accidents. Do you understand what I mean?"
Trembling all over, Evander nodded heavily, saying, "Rest assured. Everything is arranged properly."
Archibald got into the car arranged by Evander, his face cold.
"Mr. Henderson, I wonder how you plan to acquire BK Pharmaceuticals this time?" Evander tentatively asked in the car.
Archibald was looking out the window but turned to Evander's smiling face and said lightly, "Mr. Cater, you seem to be in a hurry?"
Evander wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and awkwardly explained, "Mr. Henderson, you know, BK Pharmaceuticals' new anti-cancer drug is about to be released in a few days. If we can't acquire it before the release, our plan will be ruined."
Archibald glanced at Evander. He didn't rush to discuss cooperation but instead changed the topic, "I want to visit BK Pharmaceuticals to see the new anti-cancer drug."
Trembling, Evander said, "Mr. Henderson, you know, although I am its board member, I've already withdrawn our investment, so..."
At this moment, Keith, as if he had taken a stimulant, interrupted, "Dad, I think Mr. Henderson is right. Mr. Henderson is here to invest. As someone from the Henderson family, BK Pharmaceuticals should welcome him with open arms."
Glaring at Keith, Evander scolded, "Shut up. You don't understand anything!"
Archibald watched them coldly and said, "It seems I overestimated the strength of your family. In that case, I can't guarantee that my family will continue to cooperate with you."
It was a blatant threat!
Evander frowned and forced a smile, saying, "I'll contact BK Pharmaceuticals right away."
"No need. Let's go directly," Archibald said, already having a plan in mind.
Archibald got out of the car, straightened his suit, and looked up at the towering building with a sinister smile on his face.
Behind him stood Larkin, Evander, and Keith.
The security guards at the entrance of BK Pharmaceuticals saw the imposing group and quickly ran over, nodding and bowing.
Evander made a gesture, inviting Archibald into the building as if it were his own company.
The receptionists, seeing Evander accompanied by a dazzling young man, immediately reported to the chairman's assistant.
Soon, the news that Evander was accompanying a mysterious man spread throughout the building.
William was in a good mood today, chatting with everyone in the marketing department, when he saw Abigail and others rushing past the department entrance.
"Hey, where's Abigail going in such a hurry?" a colleague asked, craning their neck.
William frowned slightly. He hadn't revealed Abigail's identity, and they had been getting along peacefully.
William's eyes suddenly flashed with determination as he stared at the entrance; his fighting spirit ignited.
His colleagues were also startled by the sudden burst of aura from William, unable to speak for a while!
Under William's watchful eyes, Abigail led a group of six or seven people past the marketing department entrance with a smile on her face.
It was Archibald!
What was he doing here?
William noticed Archibald in his white suit, looking spirited, with Evander and Keith following behind him!
However, none of this mattered to him. The only thing that gave William a sense of oppression was the old man standing behind Archibald with his hands behind his back!
William sensed a natural intimidating aura and terrifying energy exuding from the old man.
It was apparently that the old man was a martial artist.
William's eyes narrowed as he sensed that the visitors were not friendly!
He then shifted his attention towards the chairman's office. Mary had been out of the hospital for several days and was busy with company matters.
In a fitted black dress and cherry-red blazer, her wavy hair framing her delicate features, she exuded the elegance of a mature woman.
This aura was irresistibly tempting to any man!
As he sat across from Mary, Archibald's greedy eyes roamed over her. He swallowed discreetly, his mind set on making her his this time.
"Mr. Henderson, what brings you here today?" Mary asked, sipping her coffee.
She didn't like Archibald at all, especially the way he looked at her, filled with lecherous desire. Despite his affiliation with the influential Henderson family of Imperial City, he didn't hide his lust well!
If it weren't for his identity, Mary wouldn't have met with him today!
Archibald took a sip of coffee, shifted his gaze from Mary, and said with a smile, "Ms. Smith, it's been a while. I've been thinking about you since the last party. Today, I'm here to discuss something we didn't get to talk about last time, regarding the new anti-cancer drug DSⅡ. Our family is very interested in it."
"Yes, Ms. Smith, Mr. Henderson is here representing the Henderson family of Imperial City. They want to understand the DSⅡ research project. If the cooperation is successful, BK Pharmaceuticals will soon enter the top ten in the global pharmaceutical industry and make steady progress into Imperial City," Evander interjected, not caring that he had already withdrawn his investment.
"The Henderson family of Imperial City?" Mary said calmly, "Why hasn't our company received any information about you wanting to discuss cooperation?"
The atmosphere became tense.
