Chapter 757 The Press Conference

It wasn’t a good thing to grow up naïve in a family like the Bowers family.

If Samuel was telling Natalie that, it meant when he was little, he had to live in that “survival of the fittest” environment, too.

“You must have had a rough childhood?” She glanced at him and asked.

“I don’t remember,” he replied plainly. “Maybe I did have it rough, but if I didn’t go through that cruel experience, I wouldn’t have become who I am today.”

She nodded.

Self-preservation was the first law of nature.

If Thomas and Yara didn’t work together six years ago to try to kill her, she would’ve still thought those two were her only family in the world.

I bet Samuel had similar experiences like this too!

There was sympathy in the look she was directing at him. That made his heart tremble. He subconsciously held her cheek and gazed into her clear eyes before saying, “There’s no need to feel sorry for me, silly. It doesn’t matter how harsh my life was back then because the heavens have granted me you and the children.”

“Mhm.” She could feel the warmth from his palm. It touched her heart.

Dream’s retaliation toward Dexmed Pharmaceutical was destructive.

Saunder, who was spouting about impartiality at the press conference back then, was discovered to be using his position to accept a crazy amount of bribes. It was estimated that the bribes added up to at least ten million, and that excluded the valuable gifts and prepaid cards he received in private.

According to the authorities, when they visited his place for investigation, they were bewildered by the cash stacked high up inside his house.

After they swiftly gathered the evidence they needed, the court issued a warrant for Saunder, and he was arrested by the police.

Thomas wasn’t exactly doing great either. Not only did he cheat on his mentally deteriorating wife after the passing of his daughter, but he also planned to divorce her. That heavily tarnished the brand image of Dexmed Pharmaceutical.

Other than that, Dream, who survived the attack from Dexmed Pharmaceutical, released a series of evidence. It proved that the company was engaged in undue competition and, in order to greatly increased their profits, they trade off the quality and the production cost of the medicine.

That led to the authorities launching an investigation against Dexmed Pharmaceutical, which caused its reputation to drop to an all-time low.

On the other hand, Dream had stopped laying low and started pulling out all the stops. The special medicine that was effective in curing cancer had brought hope to the patients. That contributed greatly to Dream Corporation’s soaring reputation.

The company was growing and expanding faster than many people expected. A lot of investors had sent them letters and emails expressing their intentions to invest in the company.

In just a few days, Yandel had accepted countless investment proposals. The conditions listed inside were so good that it made his jaw drop.

“This is crazy, Boss.” Yandel rubbed his sore shoulder and stared at the pile of proposals in front of him. There was pain and joy in his voice. “What should we do? So many people sent their investment proposals in order to invest in Dream Pharmaceutical. Each of their proposals had conditions so favorable that it’ll make us laugh in our dreams!”

Natalie sipped her coffee and asked, “What do you think?”

“Right now, these investors should be able to see the company’s potential. They’re eager to invest as much as they can,” Yandel analyzed.

“Throw all of this away.” She placed her cup down and stared at him. “Dream will reject any form of capital investment. They only see Dream’s recent performance and want to jump on the bandwagon by investing in us. There’s no doubt they want a piece of our ever-expanding pie. These investors only care about making money and nothing else.

Dream needs money, yes, but the pharmaceutical section doesn’t need any. I don’t want the medicine I invented to be taken away by some greedy capitalist. That’s because I know they’ll inflate the price and sell it for more money instead of delivering it into the hands of those who truly need it.”
