“What does it matter if it’s related to the military or not?”
Flynn was somewhat puzzled.
Brandon explained, “Mr. Clark, as a specially appointed military instructor, there is a chance to obtain the rank of Major, equivalent to a Captain.”
“Some exceptional instructors can obtain the rank of Colonel, equivalent to a Colonel.”
“If you have connections with the military, your status will only be more respected!”
“Major, Colonel?” Flynn chuckled and shook his head lightly. “Do as I said, or find someone else!”
Brandon had no choice but to agree to Flynn’s request, but he couldn’t understand why he was acting this way.
He felt that Flynn was being rather aloof.
Even though Flynn was a Martial Arts Great Grandmaster and had extraordinary medical skills, he was still a civilian.
If he became a Colonel, he would be a member of the Shipmeda State military. When encountering some thorny issues, he could use his military identity to save a lot of trouble.
This was also the reason why children from prestigious families liked to go to the military for training-it was like adding a golden layer to themselves.
But how could Brandon have known that important figures were looking for Flynn everywhere, wanting him to go to Shelon as a vassal?
Shelon was a crucial stronghold in the northwest of Ostrad, with 300, 000 brave and fierce soldiers stationed there. They were fearless and unyielding.
Becoming the King of Shelon meant becoming a Six-Star General, on par with Dragon Cavalry’s Nate. It was a position more esteemed than the Ten Heavenly Kings of the Nation.
Flynn didn’t want such glory, let alone the rank of Colonel.
After hanging up the phone, Flynn saw that all the clinical data was good and decided to go to the security department.
At that moment, Katrina approached Rose and placed her phone in front of her.
“Ms. Sharp, Sasha sent a message requesting a week-long leave.”
“This is a medical leave certificate.”
Katrina was the head of the R&D department, so Trusova could approach her for leave. However, Trusova was responsible for the toxicological testing of the drugs, and a week’s absence could delay the release of the new medicine.
Katrina felt it was necessary to inform Rose.
“A week?” Rose frowned, her expression becoming grave as she took the phone. “Fractured ribs?”
Everyone crowded around upon hearing this.
“What happened to Sasha? How did she get such a serious injury?”
“A week’s leave? The fourth clinical trial requires toxicological testing, and Sasha is the most proficient in it!”
“Yes, we’re supposed to conduct the toxicological testing tomorrow. I’ve already prepared the test materials. What should we do now?”
Upon hearing the news of Trusova’s injury, everyone became worried and anxious.
Flynn furrowed his brow as well.
Acebegron Clear Relief was bound to fail within three days. The drug targeting its side effects was undergoing intensive testing.
After completing the toxicological testing tomorrow, production could begin.
There was no time to delay.
At that moment, Rose suggested to Flynn, “Katrina and the others can also perform the toxicological testing, but it will take a bit longer, maybe two days.”
“Do you think we have enough time?”
Flynn shook his head. “When Acebegron Clear Relief fails, Energence must produce the finished product to harvest Swanson’s Pharmaceuticals.”
“This battle is about time.”
Rose frowned slightly and said, “If we can deal a heavy blow to the Swanson’s Group, it will completely reverse our unfavorable situation. This round is too important.”
“Why don’t you go and see her, try to get her back to work as soon as possible?”
Flynn nodded and left Energence Pharmaceuticals directly.
…
Flynn soon arrived at Trusova’s residential complex.
“Mr. Clark, why are you here? Please have a seat!” Trusova quickly welcomed Flynn into the room and went to get some water.
Flynn sat down on the sofa and immediately felt something under his buttocks. He reached his hand and pulled out a pair of T-back panties.
Trusova happened to come over with a glass of water and saw Flynn holding her panties in his hand, looking dazed. Her face turned slightly red, and she rushed forward to snatch them back.
“Sorry, I drank too much yesterday and forgot to wash after taking off my clothes.” Trusova blushed and threw the panties onto the bed in the bedroom.
Flynn couldn’t help but touch his nose. He didn’t expect that this foreign girl wore T-back panties when she went out for a drink with him yesterday…
“What happened? Flynn asked.
Trusova, feeling wronged, replied, “Today is the day Dingda Technologies pays the salary. According to the contract, I should receive 300, 000 this month.”
“But they didn’t give me a single cent. When I went to argue with them, the security guards used rubber batons and injured my ribs.”
Flynn squinted his eyes slightly. “Why didn’t they give you anything?”
“They said they spent a lot of money in the early stages to cultivate my account and bought a lot of traffic from QuickSound Short Videos.”
“They made a huge investment in the early stages and now want to deduct it from my salary to make up for it.”
Trusova said sadly, “They have already deducted one million from my salary.”
“When will this end?”
Flynn nodded, understanding the cause and process of the matter.
Dingda Technologies had invested a lot in nurturing Trusova’s account, and now that she was starting to make money, it was time for them to harvest it.
They could deduct money based on their own words. Even if they claimed to have invested nearly tens of millions in the early stages, you could only repay the debt up to that amount.
In recent years, there have been many cases of conflicts between talent agencies and popular video creators, with the agencies exploiting them.
There was a video creator with tens of millions of followers who revealed that they had earned over two billion for the company but could only receive a basic salary each month.
Living in a small village, they couldn’t even afford a car worth a few hundred thousand dollar, and they were depressed.
“What are you planning to do?” Flynn asked.
Trusova’s gaze was determined as she said, “I’ve decided to terminate the contract. I’ve already updated a video on my account, explaining the situation and using public opinion to put pressure on Dingda Technologies.”
“Bang!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the door was kicked open, and more than a dozen black-clad individuals wielding batons rushed in and stood in two rows in the living room.
Voices came from the hallway.
“Miss Holder, rest assured, if that woman dares to release a video defaming my company, I will film her in a short video and upload it to major adult websites!”
“Good! Mr. Cox, have one of your men teach her a lesson! Until that bitch foams at the mouth and can’t even stand up!”
“No problem! You’re a distinguished guest from the Cox family, watch closely!”
A man and a woman walked in.
It was Ismael and Kseniya.
When Trusova saw Kseniya, her mind exploded, and her body couldn’t help but tremble.
This woman actually appeared with the boss!
A bad premonition rose within her.
“This trash is your boss?” Flynn pointed at Ismael and said with a fake smile.
Trusova nodded, feeling extremely fearful.
Ismael immediately became furious. “What the hell are you pointing at? Who do you think you can point at?”
Flynn shook his head, raising an eyebrow. “It seems your legs have healed. You think you can jump and run now!”
“I wonder how Miguel is doing. I’m afraid he still can’t lift heavy objects!”
Ismael’s face darkened, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. “Even so, he’s still stronger than you, you coward who almost wet himself when confronted by my father!”
After hearing the conversation between the two men, Kseniya couldn’t help but pause and turned to Ismael. “Mr. Cox, do you know him?”
“That’s right! If it weren’t for Molly’s intervention last time, he would have been slapped into a mist of blood by my father!”
Ismael stared at Flynn fiercely, full of hostility.
Kseniya frowned and her expression became serious. “Mr. Cox, this guy is skilled in martial arts. He also knows Edwin, the richest man in Niarak. It would be better if you find a more capable helper.”
