The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 501

Chapter 501 An Obedient Puppet

When something suddenly occurred to Natalie, she broke into an ambiguous smile.

“Ross, as long as one pours one’s heart to it, anything can be accomplished. Instead, it’s the human heart that’s the hardest to read and predict.”

Despite being briefly stunned, Ross nodded in agreement before they returned to the conference venue together.

Most of the participants of the medical conference were middle-aged men dressed in suits.

Therefore, when Yara appeared in her white gown, she looked as if she was a white swan gracefully sauntering into the venue, capturing everyone’s attention.

“Mr. Nichols, you’re such a lucky man. I heard that your daughter will be speaking on behalf of Dexmed Pharmaceutical. Not only does she have an impressive career but is also a stunning beauty!”

“Mr. Nichols, you have to share with us your secret in raising such an exceptional daughter.”

“The conference hasn’t even started, and yet, all of us are already excited for her speech.”

Even though Yara reacted to the compliments modestly, she was secretly elated upon hearing them.

As she enjoyed being in the limelight, their praises caused her recently depressed mood to improve significantly.

When Natalie saw the smug look on Yara’s face, she couldn’t help but sneer under her breath.

Meanwhile, Ross’ speech was in the first half.

When he shared his expertise on behalf of Dream Pharmaceutical, the audience gave him their devoted attention.

Combining his professional knowledge with Dream Pharmaceutical’s development philosophy, he talked about the progress Dream made in terms of cancer research.

His speech was both professional and engaging. At the end of it, he revealed to the audience that Dream Pharmaceutical had a cancer drug in the third phase of its clinical trials. Once it was completed, they would be able to further improve the recovery prospects of cancer patients.

The moment he finished, the room broke into thunderous applause.

However, inside another private room in the southern wing…

A man in a light-colored suit glanced at the triumphant Ross before turning his attention to Natalie, who had blended into the crowd. Subsequently, his gaze began to darken.

“Dream Pharmaceutical… interesting.”

One of his subordinates couldn’t help interrupting, “King, Dream Pharmaceutical is nothing but a newcomer. Therefore, it pales in comparison to Dexmed Pharmaceutical which has a history of more than a hundred years.”

“Upon Arnold’s death, the soul of Dexmed Pharmaceutical died with him. The current person in charge of Dexmed is nothing but an obedient puppet.

“King…”

“Have you forgotten about how Arnold died?” King locked his gaze at the slender figure and laughed. “Twenty-three years ago, we had Dexmed Pharmaceutical and Arnold Bayer. And now, we have Dream Pharmaceutical and that girl. Sometimes, I can’t help but feel surprised at how history is able to repeat itself.”
