Rose gave Flynn a heavy pat on the shoulder, her meaning clear: “I’m counting on you today. We either win together or lose together. There’s no turning back, so make me proud!”
Flynn, however, was more focused on Rose’s delicate hand resting on his shoulder. This woman had guts! She was the first person to ever lay a hand on the King of the Underworld.
Her trump card was Flynn?!
The words were like a thunderbolt that left everyone stunned.
“Did I hear correctly? That young man is Ms. Sharp’s trump card?”
“Ms. Sharp playing games now? Has she lost her mind?”
“Ms. Sharp entrusting her fate to a young man? This is just child’s play!”
Some of the bigwigs present were dumbfounded by Rose’s words.
They had never seen Flynn before and didn’t think he had any skills worth mentioning.
Madeline was also taken aback by Rose’s seemingly baseless claim.
Flynn had only just been released from prison and his highest position in security was as head of department. What could he possibly do to help Energence Pharmaceuticals win this battle?
If they wanted to secure investment today, Energence Pharmaceuticals needed to crush Swanson’s Group in every aspect, leaving them with no presence whatsoever!
“What an embarrassment for Ms. Sharp! Even trash like him has become her trump card!” Braiden pointed at Flynn and laughed so hard he couldn’t even stand up straight anymore.
“Ms. Sharp, this joke isn’t funny at all! By using this garbage as your trump card, you’re not only belittling yourself but also insulting us!” Lilia coldly looked at Rose and spoke out against her decision.
Using Flynn as a trump card was like facing an attack from heaven with nothing but dung forks for defense. It made them feel ashamed!
“I hope you can go up there later and give them a good slap in the face!” Ignoring everyone else’s ridicule towards her decision-making ability, Rose turned coldly towards Flynn.
Flynn shook his head lightly and said, “To be honest with you, I’m helping you not just because of Kevin but also because I really want to give Layla a good slap.”
“But unfortunately,” He continued, “I searched around earlier but didn’t see that woman anywhere.”
“As for these two shrimp… well, I’m not too interested.”
“But since I’ve promised to host this event, I’ll reluctantly go up there and take a look.”
Once again, the crowd found themselves speechless; they couldn’t believe their ears!
“To slap Layla in person… what does Miss Hussain or Mr. Swanson mean?”
“This…this guy is too damn arrogant!”
“Hehe, you talk big, but who knows whose face will be slapped later!”
Some friends of the Hussain family and the Swanson family present were furious after hearing Flynn’s words. They thought Flynn was just a clown who didn’t understand respect.
Braiden’s face darkened as he coldly said, “Talking big doesn’t mean anything. Let your actions speak for themselves. Since Ms. Sharp considers you her trump card, please show us what you’ve got.”
Lilia also spoke coldly and arrogantly, “Clark, make sure to impress me today or else I’ll have to reconsider your repeated disrespect towards me!”
Madeline poked Flynn and whispered softly when she saw Lilia’s murderous gaze, “Miss Hussain is the heiress of the Ipholn clan with billions in assets under her control in the future. You can’t afford to offend her. Show some respect when speaking!”
Flynn ignored Madeline and stared straight at Lilia with a cold expression, “Don’t worry, not only will I impress you today but I’ll also continue to do so in the future.”
What?! Everyone trembled in fear after hearing this.
Was this guy crazy? How dared he speak so vulgarly to Miss Hussain! He actually wants to “impress” Lilia? What kind of scene was that…
“Lowlife! Trash!” Lilia went insane as frosty rage filled her beautiful eyes.
Since childhood, everyone had treated her like a princess; even high-ranking officials’ children spoke softly and politely around her.
But had she ever encountered someone as crude as Flynn before? She felt disgusted like a fly had flown into her mouth.
Flynn tilted his head slightly looking puzzled, “You called me lowlife trash already so it makes sense for me to talk like one, right?”
“Are you angry now? Remember this, Layla already disgusts me enough so don’t give me any attitude or else I’ll grind your noble face into the ground!”
Flynn had been unhappy with Lilia since their last encounter; he didn’t provoke her today yet she still took initiative against him! Everyone held their breath upon hearing his words. Even Rose furrowed her brows while Madeline was left speechless from shock.
If Layla was considered a heavenly dragon, then Lilia would be an unparalleled phoenix; both women were almost unbeatable by countless outstanding men.
And yet here they were being compared unfavorably by someone like Flynn!
Lilia’s eyes flickered with killing intent, but she couldn’t help laughing in anger. “Alright then! I want to see how you’ll rub my face on the ground from now on!”
Flynn didn’t even glance at her and walked straight towards the stage.
At the same time, Braiden also arrived on stage.
The most highly anticipated moment of the Niarak Pharma Congress had arrived as both Swanson’s Group and Energence Pharmaceuticals announced their new drugs!
The representatives of both sides stood together on one stage, taking turns introducing their products.
Swanson’s family developed Acebegron Clear Relief based on Dragon Bone Pill. Clinical trials proved that it could effectively kill Rheumatoid Factor within 24 hours. Its effect was stronger than Dragon Bone Pill!
As soon as this news spread, it caused a sensation in the medical industry and quickly attracted attention from major companies such as Sunlight Corp..
After Braiden introduced Acebegron Clear Relief samples, appraisal certificates, approval procedures and other information to all attendees present at the event, “Through various clinical data and tests, Acebegron Clear Relief is three times more effective than Dragon Bone Pill!”
“The Sharp family relied solely on Dragon Bone Pill to leapfrog into Niarak’s first-tier luxury brand; however, with Acebegron Clear Relief bringing profits exceeding two hundred billion, they will be unstoppable!”
“Sunlight Corp. has decided to invest 5 billion in Swanson’s Group’s new drug!”
“Herbpoly Pharmaceutical will invest 3 billion!”
Pharmaceutical companies and investment groups from all over the country were excited about investing after seeing this presentation. Some smaller pharmaceutical companies did not have enough funds but still wanted a piece of action by trying to approach Swanson’s Group executives for small investments worth millions of dollars or so.
“Hahaha! It is my honor if you think highly of Swanson’s Group.”
“If anyone wants to invest even just a few million dollars or so, then I welcome them with open arms. Let us become friends!” Braiden laughed heartily while everyone below jumped up excitedly wanting to give it a try themselves.
Rose saw this scene unfold before her eyes; her expression darkened when she realized that many big bosses invested in Swanson’s group without waiting for Energence Pharmaceuticals’ new drug release. It was clear that they looked down upon Energence Pharmaceuticals deep down inside.
She couldn’t help but look up towards Flynn: Could he turn things around?
