Chapter 175
“I warned you all that our company was short on funds. We shouldn't have coveted Evergreen
Biotech’s cancer treatment drugs and other medications. We shouldn't have signed this contract in the first
place. And now-"
“What's the use of saying this now? The deed is done! Right now, we should use whatever twe have left to
quickly see if there's anyone else who can take on this order!”
“There's no tfor anyone else to take this order. All the equipment needs to be purchased anew...”
“They can use the Murray Group's equipment. After all, Murrays Group's funding chain is broken. They breached
the contract first! Can they even afford to pay the penalty?”

“According to the contract, we can’t afford to compensate Evergreen Biotech either! So why not negotiate with
Murray Group to waive the hefty penalty, and use the equipment to offset the debt?”
“The Murray Group might disagree! This batch of equipment is the most advanced equipment that Evergreen
Biotech acquired!”
“Mr. Franklin, what do you think?” The executives turned to Nathan, who had been silent, deep in thought.
“Contact Zenith Pharmaceuticals and see if they're interested in cooperating,” Nathan said.
“Isn't Zenith Pharmaceuticals our competitor?” One executive looked at Nathan. “Zenith Pharmaceuticals might
be hoping for our downfall!”
“I'm aware!” Nathan frowned. “That's why we can only offer a portion of the benefits to Zenith Pharmaceuticals,
as long as we can ensure the smooth completion of this transaction.”
“That seems to be the only solution for now,” another executive chimed in. “I'll go talk to Zenith
Pharmaceuticals, but we also need to consider what to do if they refuse.”
“You go ahead and contact Zenith Pharmaceuticals. Meanwhile, we'll brainstorm other solutions,”
Nathan said.
Nathan exited the conference room.
He felt the onslaught of a headache when he thought of the problems he was now facing.
Audrey knew about Norman being hospitalized and the fact that the Murray Group's liquid capital had been
gambled away.

She didn’t care how Nathan would handle it. After all, a mere formula leak could bankrupt the Franklin Group.
Right now, she only wanted to know if Nathan would continue to help Charles.

Meanwhile, the hearing was nearing its end.
Derek was saying: “You askwhy Evergreen Biotech, claiming to be a company benefiting humanity, offers
such low prices to other countries while charging such high prices in Meplaria. Our country has also paid high
prices for patents from your country before, though they were cheap to local manufacturers.
“This is the dividend of knowledge. We didn’t possess such knowledge back then, so paying high fees was only
natural! Why do you feel that it’s unfair now that the roles are reversed?
“Speaking of benefiting humanity as you mentioned, haven't the achievements of our Evergreen Biotech
projects benefited humanity? Haven't they saved many lives?”
Derek’s speech was powerful and confident.
