Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 80

"Have those people caused any more trouble?" Daniel asked as he took a sip of his tea.

Luciana shook her head. "No, they haven't come back. We don't need to worry about them anymore."

She handed him the printed contract. Without hesitation, he picked up the pen and signed his name. The herbs would later be delivered directly to the villa.

For now, Daniel was the only one capable of producing the youth cream. When it came to mass production, the formula would be diluted at the factory.

It would slightly reduce its potency but extend the product's usage period. This approach would lower production costs while ensuring enough profit margin to support future growth.

With everything set, he left the pharmacy and prepared to tackle the intense work awaiting him at the villa over the next few days. Time flew by peacefully as Jennifer kept to herself and stayed under the radar.

Meanwhile, the announcement of a collaboration between Ashcroft Group and Geller Cosmetics sent shockwaves through Qranross. What made the news even more startling was the unexpected comeback of the Ashcroft Group, a name that had faded into obscurity for years.

Once a powerhouse in Qranross, the company was widely respected during its peak. However, after the downfall of the Ashcroft family, their company disappeared from the public eye. With this bold partnership and a high-profile deal, they were suddenly back in the spotlight and drew everyone's attention.

Conor, dressed in a sharp suit, had a few gray streaks in his hair that showed his age, but he was in great spirits and full of energy.

"Good to see everyone again." He smiled warmly and exchanged pleasantries.

"I heard you were injured and in the hospital a while back. Unfortunately, I wasn't in Qranross at the time to visit. Please forgive me," Hugo Quinton said with a smile.

Conor waved it off. "It was just a minor injury; there's nothing to worry about. But I've got to say, your business just keeps growing. You're impressive."
