Chapter 288 Come On, Let’s Go Up And Sit For a While

Book:A King Reborn in Shadows Published:2024-6-4

Flynn was surprised to see Madeline, but then it dawned on him.
Rose wanted him to take Madeline to Thodell Mansion! If he took her up the mountain and showed her around, everything would become clear.
The Kaur family knew he lived in a three-billion-dollar mansion and wouldn’t bother him anymore.
Flynn said calmly, “Let’s go up and sit for a while.”
He finally understood Rose’s plan.
She knew that if she told Madeline the truth at Staraid Hotel, she wouldn’t believe it. So she told her that the person who helped the Kaur family was staying at Thodell Mansion. When Madeline came over and saw it with her own eyes, everything would be clear.
No wonder Rose had reminded him several times to go back early tonight; she had put in so much effort! Flynn thought this woman wasn’t bad; after helping her for so long, she finally did something for him.
Now, as Madeline approached with anticipation, she discovered Flynn’s presence, naturally shocked.
He thought this way, but in Madeline’s mind, it became a different situation.
Flynn was now Nathan’s puppet, and his sudden appearance here must be to see Nathan about something.
If she followed them up, wouldn’t that be awkward?
What could she say in front of Flynn? Thank Nathan for helping the Kaur family?
Wouldn’t that expose Nathan’s intentions?
Where would Flynn’s dignity go?
Nathan would also feel uncomfortable! These matters should be kept hidden!
But thinking about it, Flynn was quite pitiful. The boss liked his own wife, and he was kept in the dark, serving Nathan tirelessly…
“No… no, I’m going back!” Madeline said and fled in panic.
In this situation, what face was there to show?
There was nothing she could say in front of Flynn.
Madeline quickly ran toward the park.
“Go back?” Flynn was taken aback by Madeline’s panicked escape, and then he smiled faintly.
“Of course, she couldn’t accept it for a while. Thinking about her previous attitude towards me, she felt embarrassed and fled.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Nathan arrived.
“Why are you laughing, Master?”
Flynn didn’t respond to that matter, he withdrew his gaze and turned to ask, “Has the security system been installed?”
“It’s been fully tested. As long as there’s any trouble on Ms. Sharp’s side, you’ll be immediately alerted,” Nathan replied.
“Also, I made a call to the Spencer family. Tomorrow, the Governor will come to Niarak to inspect Ponocord Bay and bring Molly back to East Sea.”
“The Governor wants to see you during his trip.”
“See me? Does he have something to discuss?” Flynn was puzzled, then he said indifferently, “Alright, I happen to have something to ask him as well.”
“You keep a close eye on Garrett now. I suspect he has connections with the King of Poison. Let me know if there’s any news!”
“Master, rest assured! I’ll make sure to complete the mission! Also, the Governor’s visit this time is a private one, and his itinerary hasn’t been disclosed. Please keep it confidential, Master!” Nathan said, returning the key to Thodell Mansion to Flynn and leaving the Plenilune Mountain.
“This kid may have the arrogance of a scion from a prestigious family, but he’s diligent and hardworking in his tasks. He’s a good prospect!”
Flynn commented as he walked toward the mountaintop.
As for Governor Rocco’s low-profile visit to Niarak this time, it was understandable.
After all, ten years ago, when the King of Poison wiped out the George family and angered Barney, his in-law, Barney personally launched the most severe manhunt and increased the bounty to fifty million.
The entire nation mobilized for several days, searching high and low for the King of Poison. As a result, the King of Poison was shot and almost captured.
Considering this grudge and the fact that the King of Poison was a fugitive, his current hiding place in Shipmeda, Governor’s trip must be cautious and secrecy was necessary.
The next day, Flynn woke up and had a simple meal.
Since he had promised Rose to go to the Wong family, he went to Energence Pharmaceuticals and briefly arranged things with the security department.
He added a few more patrol officers outside the warehouse to prevent anyone from having any ideas about Bloodwort.
Shortly after, Harriet came to thank him, saying that her grandfather was fine now and she wanted to invite Flynn to her home for a home-cooked meal.
Flynn politely declined, citing too many things to do.
When Rose finished her work, they went to the Wong family together.
As soon as they arrived at the Wong family, they saw several people gathering in the empty space behind the Wong family.
Corbin and Tristan were among them.
They were surrounding a tall and thin man, politely chatting with him, displaying a demeanor and presence that surpassed the tall and thin man.
Flynn also spotted a familiar figure, the geomancy master Toby whom the Wong family had invited last time.
The old man was holding a compass, a ruler, and a six-ruling disc, constantly calculating near Corbin and the others, muttering to himself.
“Mr. Carlson!” Rose greeted as she approached.
The tall and thin man was none other than Charlie, the largest distributor in the Southern Territory.
He owned over six thousand pharmacies in the Southern Territory and could distribute medications for several multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical companies simultaneously, showcasing his formidable strength.
Sixty percent of the pharmacies in the thirteen states of the Southern Territory belonged to Charlie. If they could collaborate with him, they wouldn’t have to worry about the sales of the Bone-Cleansing Pill.
When Charlie saw Rose approaching, the smile on his face disappeared, and he seemed somewhat displeased.
“Ms. Sharp, you’re really persistent. You’ve come all the way to the Wong family,” he said.
“Didn’t I already tell you last time? I don’t want to collaborate with you. Why do you keep coming here to bother me?”
Tristan also sneered, “Ms. Sharp, it’s not that I won’t help you! Mr. Carlson is the top distributor in the Southern Territory and doesn’t lack potential partners. He doesn’t think highly of Energence Pharmaceuticals.”
Corbin spoke indifferently, “Ms. Sharp, let’s be honest. If it weren’t for Mr. Spencer’s sake, I wouldn’t help you either.”
“Mr. Carlson doesn’t care about anyone’s reputation, so he naturally can’t be bothered with you. Just give up on it!”
“He doesn’t think much of small companies like Energence Pharmaceuticals!”
Both of them glanced at Flynn simultaneously, their gazes filled with coldness.
Flynn had belittled them quite a bit yesterday, showing them no respect. In the end, he had been chased and had to flee from the Ten Thousand Insect Curse.
As the boss, Rose not only didn’t punish Flynn but also supported him.
After yesterday’s events, Corbin and Tristan had lost any favorable impression they had of them.
Especially Corbin, who already had a grudge against Rose, now looked at her even more unfavorably.
Rose frowned slightly and then spoke politely, “Mr. Carlson, there seems to be a misunderstanding. I came here primarily to visit Mr. Wong, and when I saw you here, I came to say hello.”
Charlie sneered, “Let’s be honest with you, Ms. Sharp. Not only do I not think highly of small companies like Energence Pharmaceuticals, but I also don’t believe you can last for two months.”
“What if I sign a contract with you, and the Bone-Cleansing Pill goes bankrupt within a few days of its launch? Wouldn’t all our efforts be in vain?”
“So, since you came to see the old man, please go inside quickly and don’t disturb my enjoyment!”
Corbin also wore a wry smile, “Mr. Carlson is right! Actually, I share the same concerns. I’m afraid that if we sign a contract, Energence Pharmaceuticals will go bankrupt, and all our efforts will be wasted.”
“But I have no choice. I have to help Energence Pharmaceuticals, or else Mr. Spencer won’t help me secure the Shipmeda market. Who else would be willing to deal with her?”
“Ah, I’ll just consider it as spending money to buy Mr. Spencer’s help!”
Rose’s face couldn’t help but darken.
Was Corbin reluctantly helping Energence Pharmaceuticals?
From what he said, he didn’t believe that Energence Pharmaceuticals would emerge victorious in the alliance against the Swanson’s Group. Helping her was merely to profit from the Spencer family’s connections.
It was like buying sheep. They originally wanted to buy a dozen healthy sheep, but the villagers said they had to buy the sick sheep that was on the verge of death if they wanted to buy those dozen sheep.
The sheep trader was reluctant, but in order to get the other dozen sheep, they reluctantly bought those sick sheep.
Energence Pharmaceuticals was that sick sheep, a company that Corbin didn’t want to support but had no choice but to support!
This blatant humiliation left Rose extremely displeased.
