Chapter 63
As soon as I called through, the other end picked it up quickly, and the elegant voice of the senior also sounded, “Aimee, what’s the matter?”
I hesitated for a few seconds, and was a little embarrassed to speak.
The elder’s gentle voice rang out, “Aimee? What can I do for you?”
I answered with some embarrassment, “Senior, do you have any good material suppliers in River City? Can you introduce them to me?”
He almost agreed without thinking, and didn’t ask me what I wanted the material supplier to do. He just said, “OK, I’ll contact you and give you information later.”
I didn’t expect that he would agree so happily. After a few seconds, I replied gratefully, “Thank you, senior. I’m waiting for your good news.”
The senior hung up soon.
I didn’t mention to Dave what the Institute was targeted at, nor did I know who was behind the scenes.
I don’t know if Dave can compete with the other party. If I drag Dave
Thinking of this, I can’t help feeling a panic.
It took nearly half an hour for Dave to call.
I almost connected the phone at the first time when my mobile phone was on, and asked him in a tight voice, “How are you, senior?”
Dave’s voice sounded dignified, “We agreed well, but when you mentioned your research institute, the other party’s attitude changed.”
Hearing the words, my eyes darkened, and the corners of my lips showed a bitter radian, “I know, please don’t interfere in this matter after you, I will find a way to solve it myself.”
When the voice dropped, Dave suddenly asked, “What’s the matter with Mr. Carter? Did he do it?”
I couldn’t help wondering, “Why do you say that? What’s the relationship between this matter and Penn?”
He said in a heavy voice, “You should have noticed that someone is targeting you behind this matter.”
I answered, “I know, but… I can’t think of the reason why Penn did it.”
“I asked, the Carter Group secretly sent an ultimatum to the major material suppliers of River City. Whoever dares to cooperate with you is against the Carter Group.” Dave replied in a deep voice.
Hearing this, I was shocked.
I had a vague guess in my heart, and explained to Dave quietly, “No, it’s not Penn.”
Dave said gravely, “Who else can it be?”
“It’s not important.” I hung my eyes and pulled my lower lip bitterly. “Senior, you should not interfere in this matter. This is my private matter. I am already guilty of involving the Institute. I don’t want to involve you again.”
Dave was silent for a few seconds, “So you already know who is behind it? I can stay out of it, but you should also tell me whether he will hurt you.”
I thought for a few seconds and answered earnestly, “The other party should just want to drive me out of River City, so he started from the research institute. I will leave, and the situation of the research institute will naturally improve.”
When I hung up, Janet’s expressionless face appeared in my mind.
Apart from her, the Carter Group will not be targeted at me like this.
When I learned the inside story, my eyebrows frowned tightly.
What happened in places I can’t see during this time? Why did Janet shoot out suddenly?
I remember last time in the coffee shop, Janet clearly meant that if I had contact with Penn later, I would take measures.
After that, I did not see that man again.
Even I have planned to take my children to settle abroad after I have arranged my domestic affairs properly.
Janet’s action at this time is not good for her or me.
I have a headache. I take out my mobile phone and want to call Janet for questioning.
But after several consecutive calls, it was shown that she was not in the service area.
Obviously, I have been blacklisted.
I turned off my phone in frustration and apologized to Dexter, who was waiting nearby, “Sorry, my private affairs have affected the Institute.”
Dexter just smiled mildly when he heard this, “Now that things have happened, we’d better think about how to solve it.”
I nod.
We thought of the Sharp family.
Before I cured Felton, the Sharp family promised to supply the Institute with drugs at half price.
However, after the Sharp agreed, other material suppliers also changed, and came to seek cooperation with us one after another.
I know that these people had to compromise because of the threat of the Hunter family, and I didn’t argue with them. The Institute also cooperated with several drug suppliers at the same time.
This batch of medicinal materials just didn’t come from the Sharp family. I don’t know if there is any surplus in the Sharp family.
With this in mind, I raised a new hope and said to Dexter, “Ask the Sharp family if there is any medicine we need. We didn’t make a reservation before, and we don’t know whether it is too late.”
Dexter nodded, “I just meant it.”
When the voice fell, I took out my mobile phone and called Jarvis Short, the person in charge of the Sharp family.
The other end was not connected.
I have a foreboding in my heart.
I don’t know how long it took before the phone was finally connected.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Dexter adjusted his expression and greeted the person at the end with a smile, “Mr. Short…”
Before he finished speaking, the man at the other end interrupted him with a laugh, “Mr. Finger, we can talk about another day? I’m busy with the meeting here, hang up first!”
After that, he immediately hung up the phone.
I didn’t hear what was said on the other end of the phone, but I clearly heard Dexter only said a few words, and even didn’t mention the medicine, so I hung up on the other end.
Dexter’s face became ugly after hanging up.
Seeing this, my heart sank.
“How about the Sharp family canceling the cooperation?” I frowned and asked.
Dexter nodded with an ugly face.
I don’t know what was said at that end. I just thought it was because the attitude of the people at that end was really bad, otherwise Dexter wouldn’t be so angry.
“It’s not worth getting angry about this matter. In the end, this matter is my responsibility. I can think of a way to do it again.” I smiled calmly and comforted.
Dexter was very angry, “The Sharp family is a big business, shouldn’t you keep your word?”
I was shocked.
“At the beginning, so many doctors were at a loss for Felton’s disease. Finally, it was you who made Felton recover. The Sharp family had promised to sell medicine at half price, but now they will change!” Dexter thought more and more angrily. “If I had known that the Sharp family would be like this, I should not recommend you to see Felton!”
I pulled my lower lip apologetically, “Don’t worry, I will solve the problem of the research institute. The Sharp family is not as simple as you think. During this period of time, when I treated Felton, I had some personal relationship with Mr. Clayton. Felton was also good to me, so I will handle the affairs of Sharp family first, and I will go there in person later.”
I thought for a while and said to Dexter, ” you stay at the research institute, if an employee asks about the medicine, please appease them.”
Dexter agreed.
After a brief discussion, I called Clayton.
The other end quickly picked up, “Aimee, what’s up?”
I said calmly, “Is the old man at home? I want to check his health and confirm his recovery.”
Clayton immediately agreed, “Thank you. Grandpa is at home. Come on.”
After confirming that the old man was at home, I hung up and set off for the Sharp family.
Just arrived at the door of the Sharp’s mission, the housekeeper was waiting at the door.
“Miss Miller, the young master asked me to meet you here. He is waiting for you in the living room.” When I arrived, the housekeeper greeted me respectfully.
I nodded and followed the housekeeper to the villa.
As I walked, I was thinking about how to talk about it with Clayton for a while.
With the personal relationship between the Sharp family and the Carter family, I do not believe that the Sharp family will be threatened by the Carter family.
But the manager in charge of medicinal materials treated us with that attitude
Unless Janet told Clayton about it in person, and Clayton agreed.
If that is the case, I’m afraid I can’t say anything today.
After thinking all the way to the villa door, I slowly put away my thoughts. When the villa door was opened, the expression on my face had returned to normal.
When I came in, Clayton put down his folder and stood up to say hello, “Aimee, long time no see.”
I smiled blandly, “Where is Mr. Sharp?”
Clayton motioned to the housekeeper to pour tea and took me to the back garden. “Grandpa knows you are coming and has been waiting outside.”
As soon as I went out, I saw the old man sitting leisurely in the sun, with a crutch beside his chair, looking very comfortable.
Seeing this scene, my heart actually relaxed a lot.
“Mr. Sharp.” I stepped forward lightly and called carefully in the old man’s ear.
