Mr. Wang's question made every single Song remember who was present more confused.
Who was Chase Lu?
Who else could it be?
He was just a stray dog their family raised.
"Hmph, don't you guys know who he is? He has just won me in a bet!" Mr. Wang's face was livid. He continued with an angry tone, "Last night, he"
"Hey you, don't you think you are a bit too chatty?" Chase said calmly.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Hey you? Did Chase just speak down to Mr Wang?
How dared he act so rudely to Mr. Wang?
Mr. Wang, however, shrunk his neck and immediately held his tongue upon hearing that.
"A bet? Chase, when you told me that you had to attend to something important last night, did you go and make a bet with Mr. Wang? Bella whispered at Chase's ear softly.
Chase pondered for a moment and answered, "Well, I guess you can say it that way."
Although his voice was soft, everyonepresent could hear him clearly as the room was very quiet.
All the Songs were gnashing their teeth so hard that their teeth almost crushed.
Mr. Wang was popular in Golden City for two reasons. Firstly, for his exceptional medicinal skills. Secondly, for his addiction to gambling and putting bets.
As this thought crossed the Songs' minds, they immediately glared at Chase, their gazes scorching like the sun.
Ethan could feel his heart go to his throat. He quickly asked respectfully, "Mr. Wang, what about the contracts we signed with your research institute..."
Mr. Wang stared at Chase thoughtfully and uttered, 'We'll terminate our collaboration."
Mr. Wang's reply was like thunder, blasting in the hearts of every Song family member.
Mr. Wang wanted to terminate their collaboration.
He terminated their collaboration as if it was nothing significant How could this happen?
Obviously, it was this brat, Chase who brought this upon them!
Mr. Wang must be furious and had decided to vent his anger on the Songs.
Chase was indeed an incompetent good-for nothing who could never do anything right!
"Mr. Wang, please don't!" Ethan sounded as if he was about to burst into tears..
It took him a lot of effort to close this deal.
In order to secure this deal, he even embezzled part of the company's money.
If Mr. Wang really turned down the order, all the money he had invested would definitely go down the drain.
However, Mr. Wang did not budge "Don't make me repeat myself. I will terminate our collaboration. You can bring this to court if you want to."
All the Song's were left speechless and stupefied.
To bring this to court?
No way!
As a pharmaceutical company, the Song's were practically counting on the research institute like that of Mr. Wang to survive in this industry.
Their reputation in this industry would be ruined if they were to bring this to court.
Mr. Wang glanced at Chase. He was feeling miserable deep inside too.
The night before, if Chase did not point out the problem in his formula, Mr. Wang would never ever discover it.
Being such a confident person, Mr. Wang would definitely manufacture his product in a huge amount. Besides, he'd even signed the contract.
If the problem in his formula was only identified later, the company would suffer a great loss. Besides, if someone's life was endangered, his reputation and image would be tainted too.
Hence, the reason for his visit and him kneeling down before Chase was mainly to thank Chase for saving his life.
The faces of the Song's looked as though they were just fed with feces. Mr. Wang couldn't help but say. "Let me tell you guys something."
Mr. Wang glanced at them and continued, "Build a good relationship with the Helping Hands Medical Center. They now hold the future of Golden City. That's all that I could say. Goodbye."
After that, Mr. Wang marched out of the house.
Like a bunch of traumatized fools, the Song family was left in a daze and could not come to their senses.
After quite a while, Ethan finally regained his composure. He stared at Chase, his eyes smoldering with anger. "You bestard! You've been leeching off of our family for so long. Is this how you repay us? By becoming the obstacles that block our way to success?"
Rage stirred within Ethan and he continued to roar, "You first made the Helping Hands Medical Center turn down our offer. And now, you even ruin the contract we've made with Mr. Wang, besides creating a conflict between Mr. Wang and us! You will forever be called a sinner in this family!"
Ethan's words snapped everyone out of a dazed state. Except for Bella and Madison, all the people in the Song family glowered at Chase with hatred in their eyes.
Chase did not react to them. Chase didn't plan all these that happened at all, the Songs were the ones who brought these upon themselves.
"Okay, now the direst thing is to figure out a way to deal with the upcoming problems!" Rosaline scowled at Chase and returned to her seat.
The bitterness in Bella's heart grew bigger.
She didn't expect that her husband would have caused this huge trouble.
In the future, it would be harder for them to survive in the Song family.
Sigh, she shouldn't have brought him here....
Alfred, who had been watching the show. grinned and said, "Hehe, didn't Mr. Wang just give us a piece of advice just now? He reminds us to build a good relationship with the Helping Hands Medical Center."
When Alfred heard Mr. Wang said that a while ago, he was so happy that he almost went crazy.
In his perspective, Mr. Wang must be thinking very highly of the Helping Hands Medical Center.
This explained why Mr. Wang wanted the Song's to ingratiate themselves with them.
Coincidentally, he happened to be holding a bargaining chip that could be used to help the Song's to get on good terms with them.
Sure enough, after hearing Alfred's words, all the members of the Song family immediately stared at Alfred, their eyes sparkling. "That's right, Alfred. Didn't the Helping Hands Medical Center sign a contract with you? What a coincidence!"
Alfred was immediately worshipped like a god by the Songs.
The contract he had with the medical center cost around five million yuan. Judging from Mr. Wang's words, it was going to be worth more than that. He didn't expect this at all.
Hehe, this was going to be his trump card.
If the Song's wished to get along with the Helping Hands Medical Center, they would have no choice but to rely on him.
Alfred glanced at the Songs whose eyes were fixed on him and said with a smile, "Hehe, I have already told you guys about this. However, none of you appreciates my kindness."
Everyone present immediately received the hidden meanings in Alfred's words.
They glared at Bella and questioned, "Bella, tell us what we should do now. You are the one to be blamed for what happened in these two days. Now there's a chance in front of you to redeem yourself. Make your choice."
Bella felt wronged. She screamed, "No! No matter what you guys say, I will never divorce Chase! Don't even think about it!"
All the Song's glowered at Bella and Chaue, the annoyance and fury became more obvious in their eyes.
In the end, the Song's could not do anything as Bella did not give in.
Rosaline, instead, announced in front of everyone, "From now on, Bella will be dismissed indefinitely from her position as the president of her company until she redeems herself from the mistakes she made!
Hearing this, Bella's face turned ashen at once.
She felt as if someone was ripping her chest apart and slicing her heart.
All her hard work in the past years was totally wasted because she refused to back down.
She wondered, "My family, is this how you guys treat me? Am I an asset that can be bargained and exchanged with goods?"
Chase could sense the heartache Bella felt. He held her hand gently.
He didn't care the fact Bella had lost her position as the president of her company.
He was going to repay her with a hundred times more than what she had lost.
Infuriated, everyone stamped out of the house with Rosaline.
Chase stood up and was about to go home With Bella Meluetter all of sudden Bella mumbled while forcing a smile on her face, "You go ahead first. I will go back home later."
Chase let out a silent sigh and replied, "I will cook a meal for you then while waiting for you to come home."
"Sure, let's eat together later." Bella made herself smile at him.
Chase went home first and made a table full of food, waiting for Bella to come back home to join him.
He hadn't had the opportunity to spend some quiet time with Bella for quite a while.
This was the first time they had a meal together after they reconciled with each other.
He even took out a bottle of red wine and decanted it into glasses.
However, with each passing second, an air of melancholy gradually surrounded him, replacing the warmth in his heart.
Bella was not back home yet.
When the food went cold, Chase couldn't help making a phone call to Bella.
It was soon connected before Chase heard a man's contemptuous voice coming from the other side of the phone.
"Haha, this is Chase, right? Bella is having a meal with me. Stay at home and wait."
It was Alfred!
Did this brat actually go and make a bet with Mr. Wang?
On top of that, how dared he defeat Mr. Wang in the bet and make Mr. Wang kneel down before him in front of so many people?
