Chapter 155
The press conference later was intended to send the Song family and the Helping Hands Medical Center to their graves!
Now it seemed that if the Zhao family made any wrong remarks or moves later, they would find themselves being hunted by the whole city!
“No, I can’t let that happen!”
The Zhao family cannot afford to do anything drastic during the press conference!
“Daniel is a smart boy, but he’s quite petty.
He would seek revenge if he was offended in any way. Oh no!”
Lincon knew he had to rush to the venue immediately!
immediately!
Driving at top speed, he left the residential area!
However, as soon as he left the district, he cursed out loud immediately!
For as far as his eye could see, rows and rows of cars filled up the road!
All of them were luxurious supercars!
Lincon’s heart was about to jump out of his throat as he looked at the sea of luxury cars in front of him.
He honked frantically, but was even more horrified when he found out that there were nobody in those cars at all!
It was as if all the sports cars had appeared out of nowhere!
Usually, Lincon would have rammed his way to his destination.
However, the cars in front of him were all luxurious cars!
Could he really afford to crash all these cars?

F*ck!
Who was doing all this?!
Lincon felt like he was going crazy!
He checked his watch and it was less than half an hour before the press conference began.
He quickly got out of the car, searching for security guards.
At this moment, Baxter and a group of wealthy, young heirs were smoking leisurely in a billiard room.
He gazed at the sports cars outside the window, feeling pleased with himself.
He was a member of the Luxury Cars Club Golden City. When Lincon was trying to chase him away earlier, he was already mad.
He decided to drive Lincon crazy!
“Are you not a sly fox?”
Baxter hissed inwardly, “Well, let’s see how you fox your way around our array of supercars.”
“If you want to make it to the pressconference, then better start running,” Baxter thought with glee.
Lincon looked around, but there wasn’t a single security guard in sight.
There went another twenty minutes!
The press conference was about to begin He took out his mobile phone immediately 46 call Daniel.
He wanted to tell Daniel not to act rashly and to go easy on the Song family and the Helping Hands Medical Center!
Otherwise, the consequences would be catastrophic!
However, the phone only rang once before it was cut off.
When he called again, Daniel’s phone was already turned off.
He cursed as an impending sense of doom enveloped him.
He thought it would be the day that the Zhao family rose in power.
He was so convinced that it would be their first step on the path to success.
But, he would have never expected this path he built was full of thorns!
Without another thought, he started to run.
“Daniel, Daniel, you better don’t make things worse!” Lincon thought as he sped away like a madman.
“You must hold your ground before I arrive!”
Half an hour earlier.
Daniel, who was unaware of the imminent disaster, sat leisurely on his seat while watching the people coming in and out forthe hall.
He went out early in the morning.
And he invited three different groups of guests.
The first group he invited were the patients who overdosed on the Heption Herbs, along with their families.
They had yet to recover fully, thus Daniel paid to have them carried to the venue in stretchers.
Seeing their pale bodies lying in the stretchers, Daniel was consumed with happiness, He brought them over on purpose to gain sympathy and also to arouse the anger of the public.
In addition, it was to demonstrate the Zhao family’s selflessness in saving them.
With their presence, the Zhao family would definitely shine brightly later.
As for the second group of guests, they were employees from the media department of Golden City.
Daniel wanted them to witness the history that would be taking place later.
The third group of guests however, was beyond anyone’s expectation.
There were about seventy white-haired elders sitting in the hall.
Each and every one of them was deeply troubled and crestfallen.
And the purpose of inviting these people was also to gain sympathy and to arouse anger.
Daniel felt as though he had already won the race.
Before the press conference even began, he felt like he already had the upper hand.
Almost all attendees were victims of the Heption Herbs.
The Song family and the Helping Hands Medical Center would perish regardless what they did! No way could they win Daniell The Helping Hands Medical Center, however, also invited a group of guests to attend the press conference.
The arrival of their guests caused an uproar among the crowd!
The Helping Hands Medical Center actually invited more than a dozen wealthy people!
All the people present stared at the Helping Hands Medical Center with fury in their eyes.
The Zhao family was selfless and ready to serve the public!
The Helping Hands Medical Center, on the other hand, was still trying to flatter the wealthy even during their last moments!
It was clear who was truly sincere and kind hearted!
The Zhao family was clearly the noble one!
Before the conference even began, the tension in the hall grew so thick it could be sliced with a knife.
The Song family had also arrived.
Bella followed the Song family and sat on the left side of the first row.
As for Chase, he followed the people from the Helping Hands Medical Center and sat on the right side of the first row.
The couple sat separately again, which made Bella feel as though they had gone back to the past.
During that time, she and Chase were also sitting separately. In the end, Chase demonstrated his outstanding abilities, as though he could control everything, and he was so arrogant that he could not care any less for the world.
As for now…
Bella shook her head, dispelling the thoughts.
Although they were separated at this moment, their hearts were always with each other.
However no one noticed the two people who silently appeared on the first floor of the at Their identities obscured by sunglasses and masks.
“Hey, old man, you’re here too!” one of them laughed at the other.
The other person was stunned momentarily before he replied, “Old goat, what are you doing here?”
If others recognized these two people, they would definitely be shocked!
These two people were Hugo and Harper!
Up until the end, they could not stop worrying for Chase!
To that end, they decided to observe the situation in person.
However, they were well aware that they could not reveal themselves.
It was not easy to deal with the Golden City Pharmaceutical Association.
The association had branches all over the country, with huge support backing it.
Even people as powerful as Harper and Hugo would have to think twice before stepping on their tail.
“I hope that Chase can sail through today.”
Harper sighed as he saw that Hugo was equally worried.
After all, they had little confidence that Chase would survive this calamity.
The situation was too difficult to turn around.
Meanwhile, clamoring could be heard from the entrance as several people slowly walked in.
It was none other than the Vice President of the Golden City Pharmaceutical Association, Bernard!
As soon as Daniel saw Bernard, he went up to Bernard and politely greeted him, “Uncle Hsu, you are finally here.”
Everyone on the scene was stunned!
Uncle Hsu?!
So Daniel and Bernard were already acquainted!? Besides, they seemed to be very good terms!
Seeing the expressions the crowd’s faces, Bernard replied with a serious expression, “You should address me as Mr. Hsu here.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Oh, yes. Mr. Hsu, please come with me and take a seat. Daniel was obviously very pleased with the relationship between him and Bernard.
Bernard was a good friend to Lincon in their early years. It was said that Bernard even carried Daniel when he was a baby.
The group of people took a seat in the center of the platform.
As soon as they sat down, they suddenly realized something unusual.
Daniel was also sitting on the platform!
On what grounds was he allowed to sit there?!
What qualifications did the Zhao family have?!
The organizer was the Golden City Pharmaceutical Association!
However, Bernard uttered slowly, “The Zhao family has made great contributions recently. I would like to invite the Zhao family to take charge of the press conference today. Does anyone have any comments?”
Everyone looked at each other solemnly.
Who would dare object it since Bernard, the vice president of the association had given the green light?
It seemed that the Zhao family was about to take off on the journey to success!
Daniel, however, was awash with glee. He cleared his throat and was just about to officiate the ceremony, but he realized that Lincon wasn’t here yet.
Just as he was about to give Lincon a call, Bernard said, “Daniel, you are in charge of the press conference. Let’s begin now.”
Daniel was elated!
Bernard was clearly helping him!
There was no need to wait for Lincon!
He turned on the microphone and was about to speak, but his phone rang suddenly, Daniel glanced at his phone. The call was from Lincon.
Everyone was already staring at Daniel with burning eyes.
Daniel rejected the call instinctively and turned his phone off.
It would be impolite to answer the phone in front of everyone.
“I can’t let Uncle Hsu down,” he thought.
He cleared his throat and boomed, “Today’s conference will be hosted by me, Daniel Zhao. There are three main agendas to cover. The first agenda is the release of the official test report on the Heption Herb. The second agenda is to impose sanctions on the Helping Hands Medical Center and the Song Group. And the third agenda is proposed by the Zhao family and seconded by the association, which is to ask all pharmaceutical companies to sign a professional ethics agreement!”
The audience burst into an uproar at his words.
Everyone was well aware of the first two agendas.
After all, the Zhao family was here picking amfight with the Song family and the Helping Hands Medical Center. That much was
obvious and there was nothing wrong about it.
But, the third item induced discomfort in the hearts of many pharmaceutical company proprietors.
There was no problem with signing a professional ethics agreement.
It was simply a formality after all.
However, why was the Zhao family who proposed it?
Everyone knew that the Zhao family would then have a bigger say in it since they were the one who initiated it!
Following the lead of the Zhao family, the association joined in!
If the proprietors agreed to sign the agreement, it would mean that they were agreeing to the Zhao’s position as the medical leader of Golden City and to being led by them!
This thought appalled them..
Their faces soured, unhappy with how things were unfolding.
However, due to Bernard’s presence, no one dared to object it openly.
After Daniel finished speaking, he looked at all the people below and sneered in his heart.
From the moment Lincon got the picture of the Heption Herb thesis, they had been planning for this very day.
