Chapter 186
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 186<\/p>\n
“You! Joseph, you’re really choosing hoes before bros. Kathy’s not a flower in a greenhouse. You should let her exercise more on her own!” Johnson said in a deep voice.<\/p>\n
“Of course I’ll let her exercise herself. What do you worry about? You make up for the trouble that is caused by yourself.” Joseph said indifferently.<\/p>\n
Johnson couldn’t retort to him and hung up the phone in a huff.<\/p>\n
Looking at the file in front of him, Joseph dialed John’s number, “What’s Billy been up to the last two days?”<\/p>\n
“As soon as he got off the plane today, he arranged for his assistant to go over to People’s Hospital and visit the patients who were sick from substance abuse.”<\/p>\n
“What kind of substance abuse?” Joseph narrowed his eyes.<\/p>\n
“I haven’t found out yet. It’s supposed to be a drug developed by the Hilton Group.” John replied.<\/p>\n
“Find out right away.” Joseph scowled.<\/p>\n
It had been a week since the news broke that MT Medicine was being questioned as a fake drug. NCHV Medical Company had been making various responses on a daily basis. Today’s press conference was to officially clarify the news.<\/p>\n
All the key people in charge of the development and sales of MT Medicine were there, and Kathy had been unable to reach Alexia, who still had her statement.<\/p>\n
Johnson came in early. When he saw Kathy, he said in a deep voice, “No word from Alexia yet?”<\/p>\n
Kathy shook her head and saw Johnson’s face change.<\/p>\n
If it weren’t for him, Alexia wouldn’t be missing right now.<\/p>\n
“Does Mr. Johnson have no idea where she is either?” Kathy said indifferently.<\/p>\n
Johnson’s face sank, and irritation grew under his eyes.<\/p>\n
“You’ll speak up for Alexia later. I’ll take care of the rest.”<\/p>\n
Kathy paused. Her palms kept sweating as she looked at the statement in her hand and thought of the reporters she would have to face later.<\/p>\n
Some images from the past came to her mind.<\/p>\n
“Kathy, elaborate on the paper’s description of the use of magnesium stearate in nasal medication.”<\/p>\n
“Your elaboration is completely at odds with the meaning expressed in the paper. I now suspect that your thesis was not written by you.”<\/p>\n
“Up to a hundred percent duplication. Where did you plagiarize your thesis from?”<\/p>\n
“…”<\/p>\n
Question after question sounded in her ears. Kathy’s vision blurred in the face of the dozens of teachers sitting in front of her.<\/p>\n
“Kathy, your thesis defense will not be approved.”<\/p>\n
“Kathy, you even dared to plagiarize your graduation thesis. The school won’t let you graduate now…”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
“Kathy!” A deep voice suddenly sounded behind her, and Kathy came back to her senses.<\/p>\n
Her face was already pale. She looked up and saw Johnson’s serious face.<\/p>\n
“Do you remember everything I just said?”<\/p>\n
Kathy was confused. What did Johnson just say?<\/p>\n
“Okay, go get ready. Remember to watch your mouth later.”<\/p>\n
After that, Johnson walked into the ballroom.<\/p>\n
Kathy bowed her head and held the statement in her hand tightly. She took deep breaths but could not calm down.<\/p>\n
She turned around and walked in. There were already quite a few reporters in the ballroom, as many as hundreds. Johnson was already surrounded by reporters. And the scenes later would only be more sensational.<\/p>\n
“Kathy, here we are again.” There was a familiar voice from behind her.<\/p>\n
Kathy frowned and didn’t turn around.<\/p>\n
“It’s about time. Mark my words.” With that, Billy walked into the ballroom.<\/p>\n
Kathy, however, couldn’t calm down and wanted to ask Johnson for clarification. She was afraid that something was going to happen to this press conference just as Billy had said.<\/p>\n
But until the press conference started, Johnson was nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n
Alexia didn’t show up and Kathy could only speak as the sales manager.<\/p>\n
Before she was the head of R&D speaking. Kathy looked at the statement and sat on the stage. In front of her were hundreds of reporters.<\/p>\n
Those images recurred to her. She squeezed her thigh and tried to wake herself up with the pain.<\/p>\n
Finally, after half an hour, it was her turn to speak.<\/p>\n
Kathy took a deep breath. She knew the statement well. But when she looked up, she couldn’t make a sound in the face of so many pairs of eyes.<\/p>\n
Images of the past always kept coming to her mind, as if they were alive and grabbing her by the neck.<\/p>\n
“Miss Kathy, why don’t you continue? Did you also know that MT Medicine was a fake drug? Now, you can’t hide it or sell it anymore?” At this moment, a reporter availed himself of the opportunity and asked.<\/p>\n
“Now that MT Medicine is not selling well, and multiple companies have canceled sales of the drug. Is this an indirect proof that there is something wrong with the drug?”<\/p>\n
One question after another, Kathy held her forehead, raised her eyes, and said coldly, “MT Medicine is not a fake drug. The FDA and our company have already explained. As for the sales, it’s not the drug that’s causing the poor sales.”<\/p>\n
“Now the public has become suspicious of MT Medicine. How do you plan to continue selling this drug after this?”<\/p>\n
“I heard that patients who had tried the drug before came to the press conference. They seem to be filing a complaint against the NCHV Medical Company!”<\/p>\n
As he finished speaking, the room was abuzz with discussion. Kathy’s gaze fell towards the door. Sure enough, there were medical staff assisting a few patients in, and behind them were their families.<\/p>\n
It was true that MT Medicine had done drug trials before. As for the patients, she wasn’t quite sure if they were the ones in front of her.<\/p>\n
“This drug called MT Medicine almost got my husband killed!” The patient’s family said loudly.<\/p>\n
Kathy’s hands shook and she immediately stood up, “Please don’t talk nonsense!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-852","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
