Big Novel

Chapter 516 They all thought it was an absurd and comical proposal , wondering how Andrew could even say those words with a straight face .

Everyone in the room had braced themselves for Andrews lack of professionalism , but they had not expected anything this outrageous .

Suggesting the companys CEO should guard the main entrance ? Recommending the head of the Pharmaceutical Division be reassigned to manage the warehouse ? It was the kind of logic that could only come from a genius with a truly unique imagination .

Troy was the first to snap , standing up and shouting , I object ! Object ! I object too ! Unconditionally object ! This is outrageous ! Not a single executive supported Andrew .

They all glared at him , their voices raised in protest , their faces red with indignation .

Andrew shrugged nonchalantly .

Well , since everyone objects , lets just pretend I never said it .

Michael , still seething , sneered .

Mr.

Lloyd , the companys meeting room is a place for discussing serious matters and high level collaborations not your personal stage or a playground for fools .

If you have nothing constructive to say in the future , I suggest you stay quiet ! Andrew smirked and replied , But wasnt it you and Mr.

MacAfee who insisted I share my thoughts ? Or are you saying that as the fifth largest shareholder of this company , Im not allowed to speak freely ? You- Troy pointed an accusing finger at Andrew , his face alternating between pale and livid .

He looked like he might explode , his anger simmering just below the surface .

Just then , a sultry , mocking laugh interrupted the tension .

Well , this is quite a spectacle .

I never thought Id witness such an entertaining show at one of Jayrodales top corporations .

The speaker was a glamorous woman in a red slit dress with cascading waves of hair .

Sitting next to Troy , she threw Andrew a disdainful glance , her words dripping with 1/2 Chapter 516 sarcasm and ridicule .

+25 BONUS Laurens smile turned icy .

Ms.

Dickinson , what a surprise .

How was your time behind bars ? I hope the meals were to your taste .

If not , I can arrange for you to have a few more years to savor them .

The woman in the red dress was none other than Ruby Dickinson , whom Andrew had seen on the street the previous day .

She smirked at Lauren , her tone sharp .

Oh , Ms.

Rhodes , fortunes change , dont they ? Youd be wise to keep your arrogance in check what goes around , comes around .

She added , Im here today on behalf of Amberpeak Corporation , one of Blumedales leading pharmaceutical giants , to discuss a potential collaboration with Rhodes Corporations Pharmaceutical Division .

Rubys gaze grew sharper as she continued .

And you , Ms.

Rhodes , seem far from your former glory .

Now stuck in a cushy vice CEO position whats next ? Being thrown out of Rhodes Corporation entirely ? Laurens voice was calm but laced with authority .

Ms.

Dickinson , the internal affairs of the Rhodes family are none of your concern .

As for you claiming to represent Amberpeak Corporation , I find that hard to believe .

Ruby let out a cold laugh , clapping her hands as her assistant stepped forward and distributed documents to everyone in the room .

Andrew glanced at the papers briefly before losing interest .

He had never heard of Amberpeak Corporation and did not think much of it .

However , Troy , Michael , and the other executives read the documents intently .

Their expressions shifted to approval as they nodded .

This is excellent .

The Amberpeak Corporation seal is legitimate .

This could be a rare opportunity Rhodes Corporations Pharmaceutical Division might finally break into Blumedales market .

Amberpeak Corporation is one of Blumedales most dominant pharmaceutical players .

Representing such a powerhouse , Ms.

Dickinson , you are indeed impressive .

Ms.

Dickinson , please pass along my regards to your chairman .

Rhodes Corporations Pharmaceutical Division is eager to partner with Amberpeak Corporation ! o
