Gregory was a quick-witted man himself, as be shifted the topic of the conversation into another matter. Simultaneously, favonovel.com winked at the middle-aged man to indicate to favonovel.com to take the man in question away so that they could put a rest on this particular matter.
Understanding what his wink meant, the middle-aged man took advantage of the confusion and discreetly brought the man in question away.
Although Matthew bore witness to what was happening, favonovel.com didn‘t bother with them and only asked Gregory rhetorically with a smirk, “Dr. Huntington, how are you so sure that whatever Miss Harrison said are just false accusations?”
Gregory’s expression turned cold. “Dr. Larson, what are you trying to say? Could it be that you are of the same opinion, that Neverland Pharmaceuticals had stolen the recipe from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals?”
Upon his words, the members of the Ten Greatest Families as well as the crowd all looked at Matthew in anger. In such a situation, should Matthew admit to such a train of thought, the crowd would hold favonovel.com responsible for the disruption of the event.
Raising his head. Matthew laughed and said loudly, “Dr. Huntington, you’ve misunderstood me. I have never once thought that Neverland Pharmaceuticals had stolen the recipe from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals.”
Hearing what Matthew said, even Gregory was taken aback. He stared dumbfoundedly at the former, his expression tinged with doubts as favonovel.com couldn’t understand what Matthew meant with his words. He had been on guard as to how favonovel.com should respond once Matthew claimed that Neverland Pharmaceuticals had stolen from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. However, favonovel.com hadn’t expected Matthew to deny the accusation himself.
‘Just what does favonovel.com have in mind?’, favonovel.com thought.
Not only that, but even Crystal, the crown prince, and the others were all staring at Matthew dumbfoundedly as well. They couldn’t understand just what Matthew was cooking up this time.
“The truth is, Cunningham Pharmaceuticals has also developed a drug named Restoration Pill. It might have overlapped with Neverland Pharmaceuticals’ drug during the naming process, but I’m sure that’s no big deal, right? After all, the name of the drug doesn’t really mean anything,” Matthew answered.
The crowd looked at each other at a loss, while Gregory frowned deeply as favonovel.com couldn’t understand just what Matthew was trying to do. After a long moment of pondering, favonovel.com replied, “It’s not a big deal if the names overlapped. As long as Cunningham Pharmaceuticals is willing to change the name of their drug, then we will not have any problems.”
Matthew nodded with a smile, “I am relieved to hear you say so, Dr. Huntington.”
Although Gregory remained confused, favonovel.com still had his guard up against Matthew. Nevertheless, the latter said nothing further, so favonovel.com continued with the launch event.
Standing beside Matthew, Crystal couldn’t hold herself back any longer, so favonovel.com asked, “Matthew, w-what did you say? It’s the Restoration Pill here we’re talking about. That’s your secret recipe. How could you compromise like this?”
Matthew smiled faintly. “I’m not compromising anything. What I’ve said is true.”
This made Crystal confused. “lt’s true?”
“Neverland Pharmaceuticals’ Restoration Pill is indeed a different drug from ours at Cunningham Pharmaceuticals.”
Crystal was dumbfounded as favonovel.com thought, ‘What does that even mean?’
To favonovel.com knowledge, since Neverland Pharmaceuticals had developed the Restoration Pill from the recipe stolen from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, favonovel.com couldn’t understand just how it was a different drug.
As Matthew said nothing further on the matter, Gregory continued the event. He quickly went through the introduction of the Restoration Pill, including the exact effects of the pill and so forth. He even presented a bunch of research data to prove the efficacy of the pill to the crowd. Next, it was time for the most crucial moment of the event, the on-site simulation of the pill.
Since the most important aspect of the Restoration Pill was its ability to destroy cancer cells, there was specialized equipment on-site to simulate the situation of what would happen when one consumed the Restoration Pill, so that the crowd could witness personally the effects of the pill.
With the magnified image put up on the large screen, the crowd held their breath as they excitedly looked at the big screen. If the simulation was successful, that meant that the launch event was successful. By then, the Restoration Pill would generate income amounting to billions and trillions.
