Chapter 350 Is This Considered Unsmooth?
After Samuel and the others left in anger, Miranda looked at Lachlan with a hint of frustration on her pretty face.
Once Shelly was sent away, Miranda's expression turned cold as she spoke impatiently, "Can't you be a little more tactful when you speak? Regardless of what they say, they are still part of the Medical Business Alliance of Corlinet Delta. By telling them to leave like that, aren't you just offending them?"
Lachlan chuckled and said, "So being polite won't offend them?"
Hearing this made Miranda pause for a moment and unable to argue back.
In reality, she didn't really blame Lachlan that much. She just had some resentment towards him and wanted to take any opportunity to confront him.
The CEO goddess had become suspicious about those photos of Lachlan "messing around" after Claudia's comment last time. However, this jerk refused to explain anything which made their relationship somewhat awkward.
Neither one mentioned divorce again but there seemed to be an invisible wall between them.
"You can't just tell people off like that!" said Miranda coldly.
Lachlan shrugged his shoulders and replied nonchalantly, "My style is if I'm going to offend someone, then might as well go all out! This Medical Business Alliance is so shameless trying to get our formula under false pretenses; I'm surprised I didn't punch them."
Miranda heard this and rolled her eyes before calling him rude with a laugh. At present though she remained distant from Lachlan, showing no interest or respect towards him whatsoever.
Lachlan chuckled but didn't say anything else about it.
At this point in time the CEO goddess changed her tone while maintaining her icy demeanor as if indifferent.
However, deep down inside there was concern and worry flashing through her eyes as she asked, "By the way, how did your trip go in the Capital?"
She asked while staring intently at Lachlan with complex emotions.
He went all out for Nora by vowing revenge against Isa even though it meant going into the Capital risking everything he had worked hard for.
Even if Miranda wanted to act indifferent towards his actions, she couldn't help but care deeply about what happened during his trip.
Clearing his throat nervously, he admitted, "It wasn't very successful... I'm sorry... I couldn't completely deal with Isa... and also ended up destroying your car..."
With that said, Lachlan briefly recounted what happened during his trip with some embarrassment written across his face.
After listening, the goddess CEO's eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
What? Lachlan actually... wiped out the Britt family? And the Austin family changed their leadership and expelled Isa from the family, cooperating with law enforcement to arrest him? The way Lachlan was making a statement was simply jaw-dropping!
Miranda couldn't help but roll her eyes at Lachlan, wondering if he was just trying to show off to her.
And he called this not going smoothly enough? What else did he want?
Looking at the man in front of her, Miranda felt like it wasn't quite real. The Capital's four major families that she used to look up to and even flatter were now acting like cowards in front of her man?
Not only did one family act this way but both of them combined couldn't resist him? Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Miranda never would have thought that bumping into someone would change her entire destiny! Her man was so strong!
Thinking about this made Miranda look at Lachlan with a hint of admiration in her beautiful eyes. But then she quickly turned away and muttered under breath: "Hmph! He's not my man yet! At least until he explains some things clearly."
"Well, as long as you're okay," Miranda said coldly when she heard about how close Lachlan came to being killed by a bomb. She didn't want him doing anything rash again.
Meanwhile, after leaving Lowe's Pharmaceutical, Samuel had attracted a group of medical industry representatives from Edoland and surrounding areas who wanted to get on his good side.
The Medical Business Alliance of Corlinet Delta was the largest business alliance in the entire Corlinet River Delta region with significant influence over many pharmaceutical companies and institutions who were eager for any chance they could get to join or work with them.
So upon hearing news about Samuel's success, they all rushed over hoping for an opportunity to make connections or gain eligibility for membership within their organization.
As Samuel spoke about his plans to take down Lowe's Pharmaceutical, the others couldn't help but show their excitement.
They saw this as an opportunity to shine and began offering Samuel advice on how to proceed.
One of the pharmaceutical company owners chuckled and said, "Mr. Lloyd, with the power of the pharmaceutical business alliance at your disposal, taking down Lowe's Pharmaceutical should be a piece of cake. They've been expanding their business lately and building new factories. All you have to do is find a way to stop them from building those factories! Miranda supposedly has orders worth billions in her hands that need urgent production! If you can interfere with their construction schedule and slow down their production rate so they can't fulfill their orders on time, not only will it cost them time and money but they'll also have to pay breach-of-contract penalties!"
This guy was Thomas Fraser, CEO of Thomas Pharmaceuticals in Qusall City near Edoland. As competitors in the same region's commercial circle for years now, Thomas Pharmaceuticals had always been a rival company for Lowe's Pharmaceutical.
"Great idea! Let's do it," Samuel replied with a sly glint in his eyes.
Later that day...
Lachlan parked his Porsche 918 in the company parking lot before driving Miranda's Maserati together to pick up Nora from school.
Nora had grown fond of Miranda as her mother figure while Lachlan still harbored mixed feelings towards her after everything that happened between them.
But for Nora's sake, they put up an act like nothing ever happened between them when she was around.
The three went out for dinner at a barbecue stall at South City Night Market upon Nora's request before Lachlan asked if they wanted to go shopping afterwards.
Miranda maintained her composure and said, "Oh, consider it accompanying Nora."
The last time she and Lachlan came, she had planned to explore and experience the lively atmosphere of the common people, something she had never felt before. However, due to the sudden incident involving her brother Mason, they couldn't fully enjoy the outing.
