"Lance?""I did not expect you to remember my name." Lance smiled sweetly."You and Yanne were classmates, and you saved Alora again. It's hard to forget who you are.""Are you here today to participate in agent activities?" Ashton looked at the crowded scene and asked with a smile."Yes, my brother is busy with family affairs today and doesn't have time to come. So, he told me to come here and handle the procedures," Lance replied obediently.The two exchanged a few greetings, and then Ashton asked her to go in and take a seat quickly.The Lockwood family looked for dozens of agents throughout South Edren. These agents were decentralized layer by layer, one by one, and finally formed an entire network of sales routes, including thousands of pharmacies and sales points.Besides agents, many small bosses and pharmacy owners were there to have fun and get more benefits."Howard, wait here. I'll go in and look."Jaxson lit a cigarette and walked into the Royal Sealift Group headq
Howard, Shylah, and Livia were stunned. They looked at each other and laughed."Did I hear you right?""You heard him right. He claimed to be the majority La Verdure Pill shareholder, so Miss Lockwood must listen to him." Livia laughed."I'm dying here. Levin, you should take a long, hard look in the mirror. You're nothing but trash that Alora discarded, and now you're claiming that you developed the La Verdure Pill? What does Miss Lockwood even see in you?"You might be able to fool others with all your bragging, but I know who you are. After living in my sister's shadows for so long, you are now leeching off Miss Lockwood. You think you're something, huh?""It doesn't matter if you believe me. I can only tell you that the general manager you claim to be in charge of the agents has no authority to authorize agents," Ashton said, pity in his tone."My godfather promised me. Do you think I will take yours or my godfather's word on this?" Livia snorted coldly."Livia, it's useless
Howard's expression darkened. He said sternly, "Levin, shut your damn mouth. Another word, and I will tear you apart!"Ashton smiled smugly. Then, he looked at Denver. "I just heard you say you plan to mix defective products with the qualified ones and sell them in bundles. As a Royal Sealift Group executive, don't you know what impact this will have on the Royal Sealift Group's reputation?"Denver's face fell, and he glared at Ashton with irritation. "Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot do?"Ashton narrowed his eyes slightly. "Miss Lockwood hired you into a high position because she trusted you. However, you're willing to risk the company's reputation for your selfish desires. What consequences will await you if Miss Lockwood learns about this?""Oh? You don't know when to stop, do you?" Denver's voice instantly rose. He rolled up his sleeves as if he was ready to hit someone. "It's none of your business, so you'd better stay out of this. Don't force me to put a bounty on
"Who are you? Why are you talking to me?" Alan glanced at Ashton and lost interest. Ashton was too young to be anyone important."It doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is that the senior supervisor who works under you is ready to use defective products and mix them with qualified products for bundled sale. This will harm the company's reputation. That is something that requires your attention. Why are you, the general manager, coming here to deal with a little fight?" Ashton said bluntly.Alan's eyes narrowed at those words.He glared at Ashton. "Who do you think you are to teach me how to do my job? Why don't I give you my job instead?""I'm just explaining the facts. As the company's upper management, you should immediately investigate after getting all these details, find the truth, and eliminate potential risks. You should do this instead of asking if I am qualified to teach you how to do your job." Ashton glared at Alan.Alan looked at him in disbelief. He smirked.
"What if it's me? What are you going to do with me?"Ashton did not need to call because Kendra was already there."Oh, Miss Lockwood, aren't you dealing with business matters upstairs? Why are you here?" Alan's expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure and greeted her with a smile."You're here too. Why can't I be here as well?""You know that's not what I meant.""Then what do you mean?" Kendra glared at him."It's messy here. And it's not suitable for you to appear here. The rest of us can't afford the consequences if something goes wrong." Alan smiled."Thank you very much, Alan, for your concern. But I am very curious about what happened here. It's so noisy you can hear it from a mile away." Kendra glanced at Ashton silently."Well, Miss Lockwood—""Who the hell are you? Did I ask you?"Denver stood up and was about to complain, but Kendra stopped him."Hmm? Alan, I am waiting for your explanation."Alan smiled. "It's not a big deal, but a reckless thie
"Miss Lockwood, if you do this, you will reduce the company's morale!" Alan realized the gravity of the situation then.No matter what happened in the past, Kendra had always respected him as a senior and would even overlook some of his mistakes. However, Kendra was unusually domineering that day."I have repeatedly indulged you and allowed you to do whatever you wanted. That would diminish the company morale more.""Grandpa gave me full control of the Royal Sealift Group. Starting today, I will fix the workplace. Anyone who does not help the company and uses your qualifications to get a high salary will be my first wrong to right."Many maggots like Denver remained, but they could do nothing without a leader."Miss Lockwood, I have many followers in the group, and I hope you won't regret it.""Don't worry, I will let you and your men go. There is no shortage of staff in the Royal Sealift Group." Kendra looked calm."And you guys." Kendra glanced at everyone on the scene. "Anyon
"Miss Kendra, Mister Levin! Oh, please continue."The secretary ran into the room. She blushed when she saw what was happening in the room."Yes, what's the matter? Why are you in a panic?" Kendra hid her shyness, adjusted her clothes, and glared at the secretary."The warehouse management caught a thief and turned him over to the police. The other party admitted to being instigated by the Alora Group after questioning. Miss Lockwood, do you want to sue the Alora Group?""Forget it.""What? Forget it?""Well, forget it." Kendra glanced at Ashton. "This matter is over. Let's strengthen the security measures in the warehouse.""Okay, I see.""What's the thief's name?" Ashton asked."Livia? Yes, it's Livia Carter. She's a dance teacher. She said she was Alan's goddaughter. She came to help Alan pack his things and then took the opportunity to sneak into the warehouse and steal a whole box of the La Verdure Pill, but she was caught on the spot. There was no loss." The secretary re
Ashton grasped Howard's wrist and slapped him in one swift movement. The force instantly knocked out three of his teeth. One side of his face was swollen."If this happens again, you'll be confined to bed permanently."Ashton turned around and left.Howard and Florence sat on the ground, holding their heads and crying. Fortunately, they were at the hospital entrance, so the staff immediately took them inside.On the third floor, the surgical ward.Alora limped into the ward; she was startled when she saw them."What happened to both of you? How did you end up like this?"Alora frowned. There was not a single healthy individual in the Latham family; everyone was injured or limping.Florence was lying in bed, crying in pain—her head, hands, and feet wrapped in bandages."Sis, you almost lost your mom." Howard covered his cheek as he spoke with a lisp due to the missing teeth."What happened? Who did you cross paths with?" Alora was anxious and angry."Sis, do Mom and I look li
