Second Marriage to Mr. Rich novel Chapter 207

"I'm sorry, Mr. Fletcher. Our founder has just returned to Krontos. That's why Mr. Reilly had to cancel his appointment abruptly." Wesley smiled while taking off his suit and sat beside Ned.

"The founder of Vitality Biotech Group?" Ned passed the glass of wine to Wesley. "Are they here for our collaboration?"

Wesley shook his head. "I don't know. Mr. Reilly didn't say anything, but I guess so!"

"I wonder if I have the pleasure to have a meal with the founder of Vitality Biotech Group," Ned asked with a smile.

"I'll talk to Mr. Reilly about this!" Wesley replied. "But Mr. Reilly mentioned before the founder is obsessed with laboratory work. Mr. Reilly and Mr. Burns of the Yurope Division usually manage the company matters. I'm unsure if the founder would agree to meet with you."

Ned looked surprised. "Based on what you said, haven't you met the founder before?"

Wesley nodded. "Of course not! A small fry like me will never get the chance to meet them! I believe only Mr. Reilly and Mr. Burns have personally met the founder in all Vitality Biotech Group."

As if in deep thought, Ned slowly nodded before clinking his wine with Wesley.

After Ned took a sip of the wine, Wesley's phone rang. He quickly picked it up and said, "Hello, Mr. Reilly. Yes, I'm with Mr. Fletcher right now."

Ned heard his name and looked at Wesley.

"Yeah… What? Okay, I'll let Mr. Fletcher know!" Wesley hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Ned asked.

"Mr. Fletcher, did Fletcher Corporation work with Yates Group for our project?" Wesley asked.

"Yes, we did. We collaborated because the deadline of the project was too tight. Plus, the contract didn't mention we aren't allowed to collaborate with Yates Group!" Ned put down his wine glass. "But something went wrong with Yates Group. So in the end, Fletcher Corporation finished the project ourselves."

"Well, are you aware that Tommy of Yates Group sold Vitality Biotech Group's formula?" Wesley asked.

"Where's Tommy?" Ned asked in a deep tone.

Ingrid was stunned. "What's wrong, Ned? Did Tommy do something wrong again?"

"Did you know Tommy gave Vitality Biotech Group's formula to the casino as a pledge?" Ned raised his voice. "They had signed an NDA with Fletcher Corporation! Did Tommy not know he's doomed our company?"

Ingrid stuttered in terror, "H-How could this happen?"

"Where is Tommy?" Ned asked again, his voice filled with murderous intent.

Ingrid clenched her phone tightly and answered, "H-He's currently staying at my apartment in Krontos."

"Vitality Biotech Group had already made a police report. Tommy better be prepared to be jailed for his life!" Ned hung up the phone and slammed the steering wheel, causing a loud honk to echo in the car park.
