Chapter 144
“Grandma! Can you be more reasonable?
Bella was so angry that her face turned red Ethan’s eyebrows became knitted at once.
“Bella, be more respectful when you speak!
How dare you speak to Grandma in that tone! How could you accuse Grandma of being unreasonable?”
Bella’s face went stiff, and her eyes turned red at once.
At this moment, Chase stood up and retorted calmly, “That’s exactly what we mean. Rosaline is being unreasonable.”
Everyone went tongue-tied at Chase’s words!
They were staring at Chase disbelief!
How dared this good-for-nothing speak to Rosaline in such a tone?
And he was addressing Rosaline by her first name!
Chase’s remarks rendered everyone speechless!
How dared he!
However, Chase continued nonchalantly,”You want to talk about being reasonable?
Sure, let’s talk about it then. Who was the first one to mention promoting and advertising the Heption Herb? Who was the one who suggested buying the Heption Herb in bulk? And finally, who was the one who insisted on investing money in spreading this false news and made everyone in the city known about it? And because of that person, the whole Song family has to bear the blame!”
Ethan’s face turned pale.
Everyone knew the answers to these questions!
But no one dared to say them out loud!
Where did this good-for-nothing find the guts to do so?
How dared he opposed Ethan publicly!
Just as Ethan was about to lose his temper, Chase glanced at him.
His stare was as cold as ice, as though he was going to pierce Ethan to the grounds with his eyes.
“Drawing first blood, right? Since you wanted to draw first blood, you should be ready to bear the responsibility then!”
He turned to Bella and said, “Let’s go, Bella.”
After Chase finished speaking, he held Bella and left right away.
Everyone who was at the scene was furious!
“You’re crazy! Both of you are crazy! How dare you, a good-for-nothing defy us, the Song family!”
Ethan’s blood was quickened with anger. He hissed, “Stop right there! Apologize to Grandma right now!”
However, Chase didn’t stop until he reached the doorway.
This was because standing right at the doorway were a dozen people, their faces covered by the black umbrellas they were holding. There were thunder and lightning;the wind blew hard while the rain was pouring down.
Those people quickly entered the villa.
Seeing these people, Rosaline and Ethan’s faces fell at once!
Among this group of people, the leader was an old man in his fifties.
As he walked, he said, “This is the Song family, right? I’m Bernard Hsu, the vice president of the Golden City Pharmaceupar Association. On behalf of the association, come to send two notices to the Song Family.
“It was from the Pharmaceutical Association of Golden City!
This title made all the people present shudder.
Given the unique advantage of Golden City, the medical industries in this city were constantly booming.
Therefore, this made the Pharmaceutical Association the immediate superior of all the pharmaceutical companies.
This was to guard the order of the industry and to penallas diebonect conduct in the and to penalize dishonest conduct in the industry.
There was not a single pharmaceutical company that would dare to offend the Golden City Pharmaceutical Association.
But, at this moment, the people of the Pharmaceutical Association were here.
They came here so fast!
Something terrible was about to happen.
Sure enough, Bernard took a notice from his subordinate and threw it to Rosaline and boomed indifferently. “The first notice is to instruct the Song family to send all the Heption Herb for immediate testing. The test result will be out after seven days. If the Heption Herb is found to be poisonous, trend the Song family will be severely punished for its misconduct! Should the matter be found more serious, you will all be held with criminal responsibility!”
“As for the second notice, it is to instruct the Song family to cease all medical businesses.
This notice comes with immediate effect. At the same time, all the misleading promotions the Song family has made will be announced to the whole city as a warning
to others.”
The two notices were like two claps of thunder that set off the entire Song family.
Each one of them felt as if they had fallen into an ice pond!
The people of the Pharmaceutical Association in Golden City had started to intervene in this matter.
It looked like it would not be easy to solve this matter…
The Song family was now in deep trouble!
Bernard and his men left as promptly as they came.
The two notices in Rosaline’s hand were telling the Song family that they were in a dire situation.
The Song family had been targeted!
They would have to pay a heavy price for their arrogance and ignorance.
Rosaline was no longer angry like before Vanished was her pompusity. She staggered to a chair with a pale face.
No one would dare to go against the Pharmaceutical Association!
Seven days…
Would there only be seven days left for the Song family before it perished?
When the time came, who would be the one to be blamed?
Who would be the one to be locked up in the jail?
The whole Song family felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. A night passed by.
The rain in Golden City didn’t stop. Instead, rained even heavier.
It was as though it was going to drown the whole of Golden City.
And the next day, everyone in Golden City went cold with fury.
The false information spread by the Song
family had caused more than a dozen people to take the Heption Herb. Up till this moment, they could not help but feel worried about their health. Fear was creeping across Golden City.
The Song family had instantly been termed a black-hearted pharmaceutical company in everyone’s mouth.
Accusations against the Song family could be found in the newspapers and the TV All their news was powered with rage.
Some people even proposed to ostracize the Song family and chase them out of Golden City!
Some even wanted the Song family to repay their sins with their lives for those patients who had died consuming the herbs.
The Song family was in a complete chaos.
Everyone sat on the chairs as if they were waiting for a death sentence.
No matter how many problems the Song family had caused in the past, they had never led to anyone’s death.
More than a dozen human lives had been involved at this moment!
Who in the Song family could take up the responsibility? Who was brave enough to shoulder it?
Rosaline looked as if she had been defeated completely. Countless strands of her hair had turned grey within a night. Energy seemed to have seeped away from her system.
“What should we do? What should we do now? Even the God want to destroy us now!
What did the Song family do wrong? Ethan, hurry up and find a way out!” Rosaline said tearfully.
However, there was nothing Ethan could In fact, he was the most exasperated one there.
He had lost everything!
Besides, he might even be brought to court for his wrongdoings!
Seeing that Ethan didn’t dare to speak, Rosaline cursed at this useless good-for nothing and glimpsed at Bella.
After all, every time when the Song family was in trouble, it was always Bella who helped them solve the problem.
“Bella, hurry up and think of a solution. I know you have a way, don’t you? Please go and ask that mysterious tycoon! Rosaline was begging Bella; she was not as arrogant as before.
Bella looked at all the Songs who were in a hysterical state and sighed. “What can I even do? If you really want me to come up with an idea, there’s only this one way. That is before the test results are out, none of you should sell the Heption Herb to anyone to avoid any further controversy.”
As though triggered by Bella’s words, Ethan retorted with a distorted face, “D*mn! We were in a hurry to sell it out previously because the test result isn’t out yet! Will we ever be able to sell it if we wait for the test result? By then, those herbs are going to be the evidence that put us down! Bella, what are you thinking when you said that? Are you trying to push us deeper into this pothole?!
Have the Song family ever mistreated you Bella looked at Ethan, her eyes sparkling with a stern gleam.
Ethan’s mouth twitched when his eyes met her stare. He didn’t dare to make any more comments.
Bella, one step at a time, walked towards Ethan!
What she said next was as cold as ice and unforgettable!
“Ethan, you were unwilling to sell the herbs off when Grandma told you to do it before.
But now you’re in a hurry to sell it. Hey, I hope I’m not mistaken. I think there’s something fishy about your attitude!”
She put her chin on her palm and continued “Let me guess!”
She then glimpsed at Ethan and questioned,”Did you embezzle the company’s money and use your own personal name to buy a large amount of Heption Herb?”
Ethan’s face turned ashen at once.
Everyone looked at Ethan in incredulity.
“Ethan, tell us! Is what she said the truth?” A wave of fury crashed through Rosaline at once!
