Rose shook her head and sighed, “The Dragon Bone Pill is the foundation of the Sharp family. It has a miraculous effect on treating rheumatism and bone diseases. The Sharp family became Niarak’s number one thanks to this medicine.”
“Now that it’s gone, it’s like a tree being uprooted with no chance of growing into a big tree again.”
The five companies under the Sharp family were like the trunk and branches of a tree. Even if they were cut off, as long as there was the root of Dragon Bone Pill, they can still grow.
But now that even the root was gone, the Sharp family had completely collapsed.
Flynn smiled and said, “What if I give you another seed? A seed that will grow into a towering tree ten times taller than the Sharp family?”
Rose was stunned after hearing this and said bitterly, “Are you talking about the formula? Forget it!”
“My mother relied on her family’s century-old experience to painstakingly develop Dragon Bone Pill over more than ten years. She went through tens of thousands of clinical trials and made hundreds of improvements before creating it.”
“You’re about my age and have spent ten years in prison. How could you have such an extraordinary formula?”
“You need to know that if you want to stand firm in the pharmaceutical market, you must have miraculous medicine.”
“A medicine with only 60% cure rate doesn’t have much market potential.”
Flynn shook his head and asked, “Did you apply Minor Energy-Enhancing Pill?”
“That’s my medicine. After applying it, do you feel anything? Can I take off your bandages for a look?”
Rose furrowed her brows slightly as she touched her face covered by gauze mask lightly, “I haven’t taken them off yet after applying but I feel comfortable after using them; my skin isn’t wrinkled anymore; this drug works effectively against the ointment.”
“I am satisfied with the effects of the Minor Energy-Enhancing Pill,” she said.
“It’s better to keep it on, at least until it’s uncovered. There’s still hope then. Once it’s uncovered, there will be nothing left.”
After her face was scarred, Rose spent three years seeking medical help and trying countless medications from various doctors.
From the initial hope before uncovering the bandages, to disappointment in the middle stages, and now numbness – Rose had lost faith in scar recovery.
Feeling down today, she didn’t want to use her scars as a way to stimulate herself emotionally anymore.
Just then, as the medication finished flowing into her veins and the nurse removed the needle from her arm, Rose pressed on where it had been inserted. Her face regained its icy composure as she spoke, “The Sharp family is done for. Never mind that we don’t have access to Dragon Bone Pill formula anymore; even if we did have it in our hands starting a company wouldn’t be so simple. And when problems arise they can’t just be solved with fists.”
“You need vast connections and funds for that kind of thing – neither of which you possess – so how can you help?”
“Go ahead and leave now since you’re out of prison. Live your life well without making any more mistakes,” she concluded sternly.
Flynn couldn’t help but sneer at this point, “I don’t need to say anything about your father’s personality do I?”
“He isn’t afraid of officials or adept at socializing; he only bows his head before those who are stronger than him.”
“But when your father begged me for help that day he was kneeling.”
“Do you think I can help you?” Flynn asked finally
Rose raised an eyebrow slightly in response.
She was well aware that Kevin was a proud man. Someone capable of making him kneel and beg for help must not be simple. Flynn noticed Rose’s silence and said calmly, “I remember the Sharp family’s motto: ‘Better to sing in the rain and die than to live under another’s roof.'”
“Now, I ask you, are you willing to fight again?”
Flynn’s words, though calm, struck Rose like thunder. Her dim eyes suddenly lit up like a shooting star, shining brightly.
“Good! Since I have nothing left, why not give it another try?” Rose replied. “After all, besides this life, I have nothing more to lose.”
Flynn smiled and said, “Then let’s start with the Stewart family.”
Rose shook her head and said, “Today, the Swanson family is holding a celebration, and the Stewart family will undoubtedly be there. We can discuss this later.”
“A celebration?” Flynn squinted his eyes, thought for a moment, and said coldly, “They stole something and are celebrating? The Swanson family is truly shameless!”
“If that’s the case, let’s go and bring them a special gift!”
Rose, upon hearing this, looked puzzled and somewhat annoyed, “Is this your plan? To cause a scene at the party and use your fists to take back the Dragon Bone Pill formula?”
“Do you know how many influential people will be attending the Swanson family’s party?”
“They’re all friends of the Swanson family. Going in alone would only result in getting torn apart!”
Flynn could help her with his connections and resources, maybe even have a chance to rise up.
But if he started causing trouble at the party, he’ll offend such a powerful entity like the Swanson family.
Flynn shook his head and said with a faint smile, “I just want to talk to them.”
Rose was confused by Flynn’s words and was pushed into a car by him. The two arrived at a private estate where luxury cars were already parked outside, filled with countless wealthy elites.
They carried designer handbags and wore sparkling evening gowns as they elegantly entered through the gates. Two burly men stood guard at the entrance, towering over one meter ninety with stern expressions that exuded an intimidating aura. Some petite women passed by them like black bears walking alongside white cranes.
“How do we get in?” Rose stood at the entrance, looking up at those two imposing men with frosty eyes.
“Of course we walk in! Are we supposed to crawl our way inside?” Flynn held onto his leather bag as he pulled Rose towards entering inside.
The bodyguard saw the two approaching and politely raised his hand, smiling as he asked, “May I ask which family you are from?”
“I’m Rose Sharp, and he’s Flynn Clark,” Rose said coldly.
The bodyguards were taken aback by the names at first, then sneered. “I’m sorry, but we don’t welcome you here.”
Rose glanced at Flynn and said to the bodyguard, “Didn’t Mr. Swanson invite all sectors of Niarak to attend his banquet?”
“Why aren’t we welcome here?”
The bodyguards gave a cold smile. “Mr. Swanson invited social elites; do you think a bankrupt woman like you has any right to come in?”
Another guard looked disdainful as well and turned around to write on a piece of paper before slamming it onto the door with a bang. He pointed at it and said, “See these words? The Sharp family members and dogs are not allowed inside!”
“Now get lost before you cause trouble!”
The two guards stood tall with their arms crossed in front of them at the entranceway looking down on Flynn and Rose with contempt.
Some celebrities who saw Rose being driven away by the guards were pointing fingers from afar.
“Hey! Isn’t that Rose? What is she doing coming to her enemy’s party? Is she trying to beg for food from the Swanson family?”
“That’s about right! When the Swanson family offered her 2 billion dollars for her company years ago she refused it only end up going bankrupt later on. Now look how pathetic she is!”
“Even the Swanson family’s security can insult her freely now… who would have thought that ten years ago when she was still so full of life that this is what would become of her now? It really makes one sigh.”
