Chapter 1866 Respecting Each Other
Roxanne, who was planning to spend time with her children on the next day, which was a weekend, had to rush to the research institute after receiving a call from Peregrine.
As it turned out, one of the researchers had passed out after working overtime continuously. Moreover, they had stopped breathing, which meant that it was likely they had an inflammation of the heart muscle, resulting in the sudden collapse.
The people at the institute were administering first aid to the researcher, and they had also called for an ambulance.
However, Roxanne was closer to the research institute and would be able to reach the establishment quicker than the hospital staff.
Once she arrived, she hastily administered emergency treatment for the collapsed researcher. Even though she managed to get the heart pumping again, the researcher remained unconscious with no signs of waking.
Worried that long-term health effects might take place, Roxanne immediately took out her needles to administer acupuncture to the researcher.
She managed to wake them before the ambulance arrived to bring them to the hospital.
When Roxanne realized the researcher was one of Peregrine's team members, she reminded, “Old Mr. Lomax, didn't I tell you that you have to keep a close eye on their working hours and make sure they don't work overtime too often? This includes you. Don't overwork yourself. Our products are now earning profits, so our situation isn't that dire anymore.”
Peregrine quickly apologized, “I was too focused on the research and made them overwork themselves too much. You're right; I'm the one to bear this responsibility. I'll take note of this.”
Roxanne nodded. She knew that Peregrine could understand the severity of sudden myocarditis.
Then, she added, “Let the researcher rest for a while, but we're going to give them their salary as usual. Their medical bills will also be reimbursed by the research institute. By the way, we're going to be holding a performance recognition event in a few days. We'll be splitting all profits of the cosmeceutical company.”
Peregrine blinked in surprise. Evidently, he was not expecting Roxanne to split all the profits.
They did not rake in much profit in the first phase, but they sold two hundred thousand sets of products in the second phase.
