CHAPTER 151-THE RESCUE Immediately Tony stood for the chair , they both heard a loud scream from outside."Aaaaaaahhhh!"Tony immediately rushed outside to see what was happening, only to see Helen slip on water and fall, that was the reason for the scream. Collins helped Helen up and took her to the restroom to clean up herself.Tony went back into the room and Mrs Lugard persuaded Tony that she should be discharged home, although Tony wasn't cool with the idea but he had to agree for the old woman's sake ."Hele, your mother has asked that she be taken home but as her guidance I want to ask if you're okay with allowing her to go home,"Tony asked Helen. A part of him felt so bad that she had to go through this kind of situation but there's really nothing he could do about it."I think it would be better to take her home, you've done your very best for us and we really appreciate you Tony, despite all the bad things I and my family did to you, you still showed us this mercy so for th
CHAPTER 152THE PHONE CALL"It's been a hectic month so far and I'm thankful that things are gradually coming to a stable pace,"Collins said, resting on the sofa in exhaustion.The lab has been calling for the past weeks to update Tony that major progress has been made concerning the cure and most people have been able to get it .Mrs Lugard is gradually regaining her health, the new cure has been given to her and her nerves and Brain tissues are gradually starting to work in response to the drug."I heard the government has taken an interest in the virus and its cure, since the senator's daughter was cured from the virus, what do you think that they want to do,"Collins asked Tony, he didn't know what he was thinking. After the government reached out to him, he hasn't said anything yet concerning their proposal to recognize him as an icon."I honestly do not know, the past months have been crazy and I don't want to get roped into anything again. You and I both know that when the gover
CHAPTER 153THE MEETING "Who was that and what was the call all about,"Collins said immediately after Tony dropped the call. The look on Tony's face was a bit apprehensive. The call must have been very important and worrisome."I just got a call from Rongtai pharmaceutical company and they said they want to meet and that they're ready to work with my schedule. When I'm ready, they will be ready too ."Tony said with a scowl on his face. He doesn't like the sound of all this."Why do they want to meet? Did they say the reason? It could be a trap. I don't like the sound of all this,"Collins said as he facepalm himself. This News gives off something odd."They didn't say the reason for the meeting. They only said that it's about a very crucial matter and it was important that we met and discussed it,"Tony said as he tapped his middle finger on the table. He didn't have a good feeling about this."What do you think, should I agree to meet? I told him that I was going to get back to him,"T
CHAPTER 154-THE BARGAIN Tony stood up with Collins and headed for the door, immediately his hands touched the door handle Mr Christian spoke again."5 billion dollars, do we have a deal Mr Tony Storm,"Mr Christian spoke again.Tony stops on his track!He doesn't know why but he felt deep in his heart that something was off about these people. Why will a company as big as Rongtai pharmaceutical company be asking for the cure and why will they want to offer such a price.Tony gradually turned back and faced Mr Richard and Mr Christian. The amount he just heard shook his composure. Why this company would be willing to offer such a price is beyond him."This is really serious, so you're saying that you're willing to pay 5 billion dollars for the cure, but to what end,"Tony said as he dipped his hands into his pocket."I'm in shock too, from what I read online, Rongtai pharmaceutical company is known for its high clinical results and they're achieved great milestones which even surpasses
CHAPTER 155THE OUTBURST "You didn't show me any proof that the virus was yours in the first place. You only told me that my cousin Henry Storm stole it from one of your labs. How do I know that you're not lying just to get your hands on the cure"Tony said with a smirk on his face.He had them where he wanted them, there was no proof showing that they were the real creator of the cure. How was he so gullible, he should have asked this immediately they told him that Henry was the one who stole the cure."Are you saying that we're lying to you or we're trying to deceive you. I already explained everything to you. We're from a reputable establishment, I do not need to lie to you for you to believe me,"Mr Richard said, anger oozing from his voice.How could Tony insult them like that, who does he think he is? Tony was too stubborn and it will not be good for him. He needs to contact the headquarters so they can think of another plan because Tony has been proving difficult and uncooperati
CHAPTER 156THE QUESTIONS "I can see that the money is the problem. Name your price Mr Tony Storm!" Mr Christian said his gaze intense as he focused on Tony."So I should name my price,"Tony said laughing, this people are really funny, more than he expected."Yes, name your price, you seem to be interested in the money after all, you should have stated that the money isn't enough and we would top the money for you,"Mr Christian said with confidence thinking they're already getting to Tony."Okay fine, let me consider a price, we do not need to fight or quarrel amongst ourselves. I didn't know that you guys have so much more to offer,"Tony said sarcastically as he took his seat yet again on the table. He wanted to just pretend like he was giving the money a thought but that wasn't his intention."I knew you were a man I could work with Mr Tony Storm, a man of your reputation should know the benefit you will get from working with Rongtai pharmaceutical company. One of the biggest resea
CHAPTER 157-DISAPPOINTED "You have my word my Tony that this cure will be used for the betterment of the world and not the opposite. I can promise you that both the poor and rich will be treated equally as regards getting the cure,"Mr Christian said, placing his hands on his chest to show Tony that he could trust him. "My last question, although very easy, might be difficult for you since your company has a lot of secrecy. Who really created the Luti-v virus!" Tony sat back and relaxed waiting for what they would say next, it was a tricky question which they had to consider carefully before they answer. A deep scowl appeared on Mr Christians face which he masked almost immediately but Tony took note of it. Why do they have a lot of things they're hiding? What is Rongtai pharmaceutical company all about, why are they going this far. "I don't understand Mr Tony, it was created in one of our affiliated labs,"Mr Richard said, looking from his partner Mr Christian to Tony. He was flab
CHAPTER 158-THE ASSIGNMENT "We offered the 10 billion dollars like you asked us to buy he refused, we even offered him a blank check to input the figure that he wants but he still refused to sell and left and he asked something else if we were the ones who really created the Luti-v virus!""What nonsense, why will he need to know that, he should've just accepted the money now that we're nice about it,"The boss said furious, he never expected the outcome of their plan to be futile."How did he get to know that we produced the cure? I remembered that I asked you to remove that information from the answers you were supposed to give,"the boss asked in rage. He wanted his people to just tell Tony that they wanted to improve on the drug.Working with them would also help the drug to gain widespread recognition in the market space and even in the black market. But why was Mr Tony Storm proving stubborn. Everyone likes money and the amount they offered was quite huge so why."We're very sorr
