Eight MPVS from Southern Heavens Pharmaceuticals were parked in front of the east gate of the
Jonford Sports Arena. Yasmin, Derek, Sydney, and Queenie were all frowning, engaged in a dispute
with a group of people.
“We signed the lease contract seven days ago, and tomorrow is our press conference. Now you’re
telling me you want to back out?” Sydney pointed at the person in charge of the arena angrily.
The person in charge, Dick Ackles, replied indifferently, “Hondur Pharmaceuticals is the leading
company in the pharmaceutical industry in Jonford. Other pharmaceuticalpanies are eager to
dy their product releases for their sake.
“Where do you get the courage to hold your event on the same day as Hondur Pharmaceuticals?”
Queenie sneered, “We’ll hold our event whenever we want. Is that a concern of yours? What we need
to solve now is the venue for our event!”
Dick chuckled. “Sorry, we’ve already rented the entire arena to Hondur Pharmaceuticals. If you want to
hold your event, wait until the day after tomorrow!”
“To hell with the day after tomorrow!” Derek swung a punch. He had been simmering with anger for a
long time. Now, seeing the person in charge being in the wrong yet being so arrogant, he instantly
boiled over.
Dick was hit hard, blood streaming from his nose. He immediately shouted, “Assault! Assault! Where
are the guards?”
More than 20 people rushed out of the arena. Dick pointed at Yasmin and the others, shouting, “Get
them out of here now!”This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.
The guards surrounded them, ready to take action.
Derek took up a defensive stance in front of the three.
“I’m Grant Zell’s granddaughter. I dare anyone to touch me!” Sydney shouted loudly. She originally
wanted to distance herself from her grandfather’s influence, but now she had to bring up his name.
Queenie stood with her hands on her hips, chin raised high. “And I’m Walter Watson’s granddaughter!”
The guards exchanged nces. Grant and Walter were both titans in the Jonford business world.
“Hehe, Walter Watson and Grant Zell? Impressive, aren’t you?” Just then, a handsome man in a white
suit strode over. Behind him were over 30 ck–d bodyguards.
“Mr. Hicks! You’re finally here,” Dick said deferentially as he approached the man, hand pressed to his
nose with tissue.
Yasmin had seen Eugene Hicks at a pharmaceutical industry conference two days ago. He was the
CEO of Hondur Pharmaceuticals.
Eugene had his hands in his pockets and a disdainful expression on his face. “Go ahead and call your
grandfathers. Let’s see if they dare raise their voices at me.”
“Fine, just you wait,” Sydney said, reaching for her phone.
Yasmin grabbed Sydney’s arm, whispering, “Hondur Pharmaceuticals is a chainpany with over 30
branches nationwide. Their backing is probably much stronger than your grandfather’s!”
Sydney hesitated. “What should we do, then? We can’t let him act so arrogantly, can we?”
“Let’s wait for Hera toe over before we decide!” Yasmin replied.
Sydney could only nod reluctantly. Eugene looked Sydney and Queenie up and down, then nced at
Yasmin. Instantly, lust surged within him. While Southern Heavens
Pharmaceuticals might not be formidable, these three beauties were alluring in their own right.
“You want the venue for your press conference tomorrow, don’t you? Sleep with me tonight and I’ll give
it to you,” Eugene said with a lecherous smile.
Sydney’s eyes showed disgust. “Go back and sleep with your mother!”
Eugene’s expression darkened. “If you won’t take the offer, you’ll take the punishment! Take them
away!” His guards immediately closed in on them.
The bodyguards from the Zell and Watson families pulled out their batons and shed with them.
However, facing arger and more skilled groupposed of elite bodyguards hired at great expense,
the Zell and Watson families‘ guards were quickly overpowered and subdued.
Derek was also pinned down by four or five burly men. Yasmin and herpanions were surrounded,
and their faces were drained of color.
Eugene approached them and lifted Sydney’s chin, chuckling. “I like this kind of tender young woman
who’s just matured.”
