"Hey, hang the banner a little higher. Put them where they're most eye-catching!""And the red carpet on the ground, unroll it outside!""Are the performers here yet? Have them get ready quickly. We're starting soon!"Lana kept giving out orders from time to time. She was very detailed in her work, going through everything herself to ensure things were done right. Nothing could go wrong today, so she needed to see to it that everything was on the right track."Lana!"Just then, a Maybach pulled up by the curb. Then, Matteo, who was all suited up, came out with a smile."Dad! You're here!" Lana stopped what she was doing and went up to him."So how is it? Are things going well?" Matteo looked around, pleased with what his daughter had achieved."Of course they are. What problems can there be with me personally handling everything?" Lana smiled confidently."Good." Matteo nodded before he continued, "I've talked to a few of my friends, and they're interested in the Dew Balm. T
"Why are they here?" Lana exchanged a look with Matteo. Their expressions turned grave.The people who had just gotten out of the cars were not guests who were here to congratulate them on the launch. Instead, they were people from the Welch and the Swanson families. They clearly did not come bearing good intentions. However, Dustin did not seem to show much of a reaction. He seemed to have expected this. With how the Welch and the Swanson families were, they would not have allowed the Camron family to benefit from what they believed was theirs. They would surely send people over to mess up the launch."It's been a long time, Mr. Camron. How are you?" Alistair approached with a group of his men following behind him. There was an insincere smile on his face."Welcome, Mr. Welch." Matteo, too, had an insincere smile on his face."I heard that the Camron family has recently developed a miraculous remedial medicine and will officially launch today. Is that true?" Alistair asked w
"Had I not noticed it in time, I would have been a dead man by now! "I've helped you so many times, but you, Welchs, repay my kindness with ingratitude! You went back on your word!"So tell me, who's the shameless one? Huh? Who's the heartless one?"Dustin's voice got louder as he spoke, knowing that he was in the right. As the onlookers whispered among themselves, Alistair's expression darkened.It was indeed embarrassing to have their underhanded actions exposed publicly like that. He thought they should not have let Dustin leave the Welch residence in the first place had they known this would happen."You … That's nonsense!" Eleanor shouted, upset. "Don't think that I don't know what you're up to, Dustin. "You harbor feelings for me and hold a grudge against me after I rejected you! This is your way of getting revenge! How despicable of you!""I harbor feelings for you? Do you think you're worthy of of my feelings?"Dustin smirked in disdain. "Look at your face. Look at yo
The hearse was a sleek, black vehicle.The Camrons frowned at the sight of the hearse pulling up in front of them.They clearly weren't here to congratulate them on the launch! Instead, they were cursing them! It was a sign of disrespect to have a hearse there!As the hearse pulled up, two other vans followed suit.The doors opened, and dozens of people who were all dressed in black swarmed out. At the same time, an intricately designed coffin was carried out and placed at the entrance of the building with a loud thud."Which one of you is the developer of the Dew Balm? Get the hell out here now!" Just then, a middle-aged man who was suited up in all black came forward and yelled angrily."Who are you? And why have you brought this here?" Lana stepped forward and asked coldly. "Of course, I'm here to get an explanation from you, evil bunch!"The middle-aged man looked anguished as he said, "This Dew Balm you're selling is toxic! My father passed away after using it last nigh
A group of the deceased's family members, who were all dressed in black, began to wail and clamor.They shouted, cried, and roared. The commotion attracted a huge crowd around them.Some who didn't know the full story began commenting based on what they saw. They reached for their cell phones and began recording videos of what was happening, ready to post them on social media.The place descended into utter chaos!Lana frowned. Her expression didn't look too good. She had expected that things would not run smoothly for the launch, but she didn't expect it to get so messy.She couldn't get violent with them or scold them for what they were doing. There also wasn't much point in explaining things. So, she was at a loss for how to handle the situation."Lana, I had thought that the Dew Balm was some sort of miraculous ointment. But it turns out that it's a poisonous substance!"Eleanor said sarcastically, "I thought the Camrons was a decent and reputable family. "Who would have k
"Hmph! You're trying to go against us, are you? You're just making things difficult for yourself!" Seeing Lana in such a mess, Eleanor smirked.Business was a warzone. The Welch family was familiar with using underhanded tactics to make things go their way. In the past, those who failed to show proper respect and refused to align themselves with the Welch family were destroyed. Clearly, it wasn't going to be any different for the Camrons."Those are just rumors! Nothing but fabricated lies!" Matteo stepped out when he saw that Lana couldn't handle the crowd. He stated solemnly, "I guarantee with the Camron family's reputation at stake that the entire production of Dew Balm adheres strictly to regulations. "There can't possibly be any problems with our products. What happened today is because someone is out to frame us!""That's rubbish! I have concrete evidence that you are the reason my father died!" the man bellowed.As he said that, a woman rushed up to the corpse and bega
Dustin said calmly, "You claim you're from the Food and Drug Administration, but you don't even have an arrest warrant. So, on what basis are you arresting her?""That's true! You can seize the drugs, but you have no right to arrest her!" Matteo was quick to react.Every department had its responsibilities. It was true that matters of medical products were under the control of the Food and Drug Administration. However, they had no authority to arrest people."You've broken the law. As a governmental department, we are responsible for taking charge!" the bald man declared."Oh, drop the act, will you? We didn't break any laws. Besides, even if we did, it's not your place to arrest us." Dustin remained cool as a cucumber."How dare you?" The bald man glared at Dustin, feeling his authority challenged. He shouted in frustration, "Hey, bastard! I'm warning you, you better not obstruct us, or we'll arrest you too!""Arrest me? Do you have the authority to do that?" Dustin scoffed.
At that moment, Mr. Zagatti was shocked and flustered about what to do. Never in his dreams had he expected the Dawson family to be involved in this matter, too.After all, the Dawson family ranked second among Oakvale's eight great families, only second to the Langfords.The Dawsons were the leading group in the medication field. Even the head of the Food and Drug Administration was backed by them. As a manager in the department, how would he dare cross the Dawson family?His lips trembled as he said fearfully, "M-Mr. Dawson, there must be some sort of misunderstanding going on! "The Dawson family is a role model of the entire industry, having a great reputation throughout the years. There's no way you'd break the law knowingly!""Is that so? Then what about the issue with Dew Balm? Weren't you about to arrest people just a while ago?" Bo asked frostily."No, no, no! That was just a misunderstanding!"Mr. Zagatti was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly. "The Foo
