Chapter 318
Blake, who was about to head to his bedroom to rest, frowned and asked, “What happened?”
Before Ray could answer, Pable came in. Ray backed out of the door and went to prepare the car.
Pablo did not say anything and simply handed Blake the tablet.
Blake took it and opened it. It was information about the group of people who had just been arrested, including verified evidence.
Before he had even finished looking, his heart sank.
The Andrews family, as members of Conrad University’s board and affiliated with Conrad Hospital would be implicated. Coupled with the matter of the special organizations, the public’s perception of the Andrews family was likely affected.
The mastermind behind these organizations had not yet been found. It was clear that only someone with extraordinary power could control everything in Iverton and do as they pleased.
Andrews Group had already stayed at the top of the pyramid for a long time. Countless family experts sought to replace them, willing to tarnish their reputation and spread damaging rumors.
Furthermore, there was the possibility that someone behind the scenes was using
ng the Andrews family for their own purposes.
“Mr. Andrews. Mr. Tanner has arrived and is eager to see you.” the servant reported hurriedly as he entered the room.
Blake’s expression turned grim. This was Phillip’s doing, and Blake had been intending to see him
Phillip had better provide a clear explanation, otherwise, the entire Tanner family would be at risk.
“Let him in.” Blake turned and sat down on the gold–framed briar chair at the head of the table.
After getting permission. Phillip rushed in. The moment he entered, he saw Blake who appeared slightly angered and exuded an aura of Thunderous intensity. Phillip’s heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively lowered his head.
“Mr. Andrews he said, stepping forward and greeting Blake from across the golden table.
Blake lifted his gaze to look at him. His eyes, shadowed by deep wrinkles, glinted with a sharp light. Under the lamp’s glow, the glint in his eyes was as piercing as a blade.
Phillip immediately apologized. This incident has brought scandal to Conrad University and Conrad Hospital. I was wrong. I’m here to explain
Blake just looked at him in silence
Phillip explained, Igora clue about Riverview Hospital having drugs that can enhance human capabilities and increase physical strength. An underground boxing champion, Yannis Sanders, was severely injured and nearly died in Vaporton City six months ago. Yet he recovered quickly and has since defeated all his international opponents. On the other hand, the security guards in the hospital become top–tier experts, and even retired special forces soldiers from the military are no match for them. They do indeed have such a miraculous divine medicine in their hands But, they don’t spread it to outsiders and only use it internally.”
“Look, these are the documents, Phillip said as he handed over
Blake did not take the file but continued to look at him solemnly.
Of course, he knew that what Phillip sud was true. Rick’s fate spoke for itself.
Sensing his anger, Phillip placed the document on the table in front of him and continued to explain, “Special organizations are indeed investigating the development of these drugs. The first–generation gene drugs have been circulating on the black marker for two or three years. They’ve been tracking this case for a long time, which is why they’ve focused on Riverview Hospital”
He paused and gulped. His throat was starting to dry out, and he had left out some details, such as who was leading the special organizations investigation, the purpose of the investigation, and how it related to him,
“Conrad University and the hospital are indeed researching gene drugs, Phillip said, lowering his head even further in earnest.
Blake’s eyes widened as he looked up at him, feeling a deep shock.
Phillip slowly lifted his head, straightened his chest, and looked resolute. He didn’t believe he had done anything wrong. Instead, he was firmly dedicated to his commitment to the medical field.
He continued, “For decades and even centuries, we have never given up on research and exploration of medical technology. Gene drugs are merely a result of our failures and mistakes made during the research process. But which advancement or success wasn’t achieved through countless
Chapter 318
failures and mistakes! Our original intention was not wrong. It was pure and innocent!”
“We..he choked up. pressed his lips together, and didn’t say more. Tears shimmered in his eyes, revealing a stubborn commitment to medical
research.
Blake’s expression changed slightly.
In nearly a century, societal and technological advancements had progressed rapidly. Yet, every technological breakthrough and new development had come only after countless failures and numerous mistakes.
He understood and respected such a spirit, as it was also has own way of doing things.
“So, you are the ones who developed gene drugs!”
“Not exactly.” Phillip said, softening his tone. “We were researching this kind of drug, but after discovering the defects, we ceased further research So, up until now, our research has only been on incomplete versions.”
“But we were used by Kurt As Phillip spoke, he handed over Kurt’s information.
With the previous context as a foundation, Blake’s anger subsided significantly. He took the Information and began to examine it carefully.
After a while. Phillip added, “Ti was also my oversight that I didn’t notice the private transactions between Zeke and him.”
Zeke Lancaster was the person in charge of the hospital’s laboratory. He was already seventy years old.
Phillip and Zeke were very close to each other, so Phillip addressed him as such.
Phillip continued, “You know Mr. Lancaster’s personality. He was obsessed with developing new drugs, so he left Conrad University 20 years ago to focus on research in the hospital. Now that he is older, he has become even more stubborn and extreme, going to great lengths for success. He is Kurt’s primary physician, and they have a close relationship. It is precisely because of this that he was exploited by Kurt Gene drugs have the potential to cure cancer!.
After reviewing the information and hearing this, Blake’s attitude softened, and he sighed
Not to mention these people, even he was tempted.
He threw the documents onto the table.
Phillip glanced at him and assured him, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle this matter properly and make sure that neither the school nor the hospital is affected”
Blake had nothing more to say after that. He would just wait for the result.
He responded with a nod
Thank you for your understanding. Mr. Andrews, I’ll go meet Mr. Brooks and explain the situation now. Is there anything eke you’d like to instruct me to do?” Phillip’s attitude became increasingly respectful.
“Go ahead,” Blake said
said indifferently.
The Tanner family and the Andrews Group had no direct relationship, and there was no real connection between them. They rarely met, and even if they did at board meetings, they would only greet each other formally like other colleagues.
Morcover, Andrews Group might not even bother with someone like him.
This time, it was because of Lea that they had these two meetings and conversations.
“Alright, Phillip said.
Phillip left the hall, where the driver was waiting outside. He got into the car and then left
Inside the hall, Ray brought a heavy black overcoat.
“Sir, do you believe what he said?” Ray felt the person’s intentions were not pure and suggested Blake pay closer attention.
Blake snorted coldly. What he needed to persuade John and the others to explain society as a whole.
As for him, as long as the Andrews family wasn’t affected, meaning the university and hospital remained unaffected, he wasn’t concerned with these details and wouldn’t meddle in trivial matters.
Yet his mood grew heavy, and his expression turned somber
In the target of the special organizations Leu? he thought.
Chapter 318
Now, not only had he gotten himself entangled, but Conrad Hospital had also been dragged in, and even Conrad University was caught up in it.
The key to all of this was Lea. After being detained for over fifty days, she suddenly proved her innocence, causing them to reveal their true colors.
That little girl really surprised him this time.
Thinking about what Phillip said about the drugs being developed at Riverview Hospital, the behavior of Lea’s subordinates, and her own cunning and methods, Blake began to understand why she was so bold in her attitude toward him and why she spoke to him with such confidence. He now grasped where her assurance came from
As an opponent, she certainly had some weight.
But as a granddaughter–in–law and the wife of a member of the Andrews family, she was even more unqualißed.
