His movements were rough, causing Sally to stumble and fall onto a chair.
With the injury on her head and the rough treatment from Howard, it was inevitable for people to misunderstand.
But the person in front of her was Howard, and no one dared to say anything.
“Dress her wound,” Howard commanded.
The doctor didn’t dare to delay and quickly approached to tend to Sally’s injury.
It turned out that he brought her here to have her wound treated.
Sally’s heart tightened, and she couldn’t help but look at Howard.

room.
Sally lowered her gaze, a fleeting sense of disappointment crossing her eyes.
Ouch!

“Endure it a little, the pain will go away once the medicine is applied,” the doctor consoled softly.
Sally didn’t respond. She endured the pain, no longer avoiding it.
Once the wound was properly treated and dressed, Sally walked out of the room.
Howard was no longer there.

“The Brown Family’s legal counsel sent us a lawsuit, accusing us of deliberately disrupting the market and causing
significant losses to the Brown Family, demanding. compensation from us.”
“Hmph!” Sally sneered. “Disrupting the market? Why doesn’t he mention how they artificially inflated prices? I’ll meet this legal counsel and see if he’s thrown the law to the dogs.”

Sally: I don’t think we need to meet. I have a document here, you should read it first before saying anything.
Sally sent the prepared document, and once the recipient received it, he remained silent.

“The detailed unit prices of the medicine,” Sally chuckled. awkwardly.
Jeremy immediately understood and praised excitedly, “Sally, indeed it was you who came up with this. None of us
expected this. The detailed unit prices of the medicinal herbs are all clear. For this batch of new medicine, they are using relatively common herbs, and the production cost per box is below twenty. The Brown Family directly quoted one hundred, and the market purchase price skyrocketed to three hundred. They are purely inflating prices. If this matter gets big, they won’t be able to explain it to the Drug
Administration.”
“I’m just a lawyer who thought of what should be thought of and did what should be done,” Sally said calmly, smiling.

Sally quickly moved away, creating some distance between them. “The matter has been resolved. I don’t think they will come looking for us again for the time being. I’ll go back first.”
“Cough, cough!”
Jeremy straightened up, trying to alleviate his
embarrassment.
“It’s already late. Let’s have dinner together before going back,” Jeremy suggested again before Sally could refuse. “Mia and Kara should have already eaten at this time. If you go back now, Scarlet will have to cook for you again.”

What Jeremy said was true. She had already informed Scarlet earlier that if she didn’t come back by the designated time, Scarlet should have dinner with Mia and Kara first. /

This bitch actually had the audacity to come back.
Grace clenched her fists with hatred. Her pair of cold and sinister eyes fixed on Sally as if they were poisoned.
As Jeremy went to park the car, Sally waited for him at the
restaurant entrance.
Jeremy returned after parking, and the two exchanged a knowing smile before entering the restaurant together.

go for Western cuisine instead?” Grace playfully tugged at Howard’s sleeve.
