Chapter 209 Sold Out and Still Counting Money for Others!
Daniel had a fierce look, with a scar running across his face, and an aura of menace that exuded a powerful presence.
Anyone who saw him would be terrified.
Jasmine sneered with a dark expression.
"William, hanging out with these losers, what kind of future do you think you'll have?"
She instinctively regarded Daniel as a lowlife.
"Mr. Davis, I'm heading out now," Daniel said goodbye to William and left.
Jasmine scoffed, "Feels good to have these thugs respect you, huh?"
William ignored her, which infuriated Jasmine.
Fiona asked, "Who was that?"
Eugene watched Daniel's departing figure thoughtfully. "I feel like I've seen him somewhere before..."
He had indeed seen him!
Colin had shown him a photo of Adrian and the military master of The Ravenous Wolf Legion.
It was too blurry, so he hadn't paid much attention.
Jasmine dismissed it, "Dad, you probably saw him among some thugs."
"Probably," Eugene replied nonchalantly, not giving it much thought.
The next day.
In the chat group where Jasmine and Manuel were members.
Alan sent a message saying he would be leaving for a while, as Joe was taking him to the border for training.
Ella, who had just joined the group last night, immediately understood what was going on.
Someone in the group joked that Alan's departure might be because of William.
As soon as the message was sent, everyone responded with laughing emojis.
Jasmine also sent a bunch of laughing replies.
Alan, however, did not respond at all.
For the Guard House, any information about William was top secret!
Alan didn't know before, but now that he did, he wouldn't dare mention it again.
No one took Alan's training seriously.
He often went for training, spending only a third of the year in Starlight City.
But they couldn't foresee that this time Alan might never return, and could even die.
The signing ceremony was just days away.
Manuel, in charge of the Merchants' Guild of Shadows, was actively contacting the pharmaceutical markets in Sunview City and the surrounding areas.
Eugene and Fiona were experts in the pharmaceutical field.
Manuel specifically called them in to discuss how to penetrate the markets in Sunview City and beyond.
This excited Eugene immensely.
He could now make decisions for the Merchants' Guild of Shadows?
His status had risen.
Fiona was even more convinced of the Guild's sincerity.
If they were scammers, as William suggested, why involve them in such confidential matters?
But upon arrival, they found Timothy and several rivals from the pharmaceutical industry present.
Both were stunned.
What was going on?
"Ms. Fisher, Mr. Watson forgot to mention that Hayes Pharmaceutical and others have joined the Merchants' Guild of Shadows! We're all working together to strengthen the pharmaceutical field!"
"Of course, the Guild will be led by Hope Pharmaceutical, and they'll follow Ms. Fisher's direction!"
Manuel's explanation made Fiona and Eugene smile.
They had succeeded in stepping over Timothy, and now he was their subordinate.
But they had no idea Manuel was deceiving and using them.
To penetrate the Sunview City market, the Guild had connections and resources.
But professional tasks needed professionals.
The Guild had no prior involvement in the pharmaceutical industry.
They lacked expertise, making market penetration difficult and slow.
Fiona and Eugene were tricked into giving away ancient formulas and $300 billion worth of products, and foolishly helped open the market and make money for others.
Timothy and the others, aware of Manuel's plan, smiled knowingly.
But Fiona and Eugene didn't notice.
