Soon, the entire Irwin Pharmaceuticals was seized.
All of the medicine factories under them were asked to stop production. The pharmacies were shut, and trading with other countries had been paused.
Even the few hospitals under them could not take in patients.
Within a short few days, the business felt like it had fallen, making everyone in the family worried.
Martin did not believe it when he first heard that.
From what he remembered, Rowan was giving and noble. Not only had he brought Irwin Pharmaceuticals to a new height, but they maintained the same price for all medicines for 20 years when all of the pharmaceutical companies had a price hike.
One could do charity once or twice, for a month or two months.
Who would do something that put them at a disadvantage for 20 years?
Martin frowned, thinking something must be up. There might be some misunderstandings in between.
However, Carmella seized the opportunity to suppress his doubts. "Your Majesty, if this happened to someone else, I might be forgiving like you… But it's Helene who was harmed! She's the sister you love, Your Majesty! Although she was out of her mind when we got our own medical team to treat her before, her illness didn't get worse.
"How did she suddenly lose consciousness when Rowan treated her, then?
"Your Majesty, if we don't get to the bottom of this, do you dare to say that you're the person who loves her most!?"
Martin felt troubled. After thinking for some time, he finally waved and got the queen to handle it.
He turned his head to look at her. "Carmella, I want the person who hurts my sister to pay 10 folds, even 100 folds!"
Carmella looked into his eyes and caressed his face. She had so many bad things just to get his attention or a compliment.
He had no idea that what he said would make her happy for a long time.
She said under her breath, "Martin, I'm willing to do everything for you, but please don't hate me, okay?"
…
Many people came to Irwin Manor today.
They were Irwin Pharmaceuticals' seniors, investors, and some relatives from the family.
Everyone surrounded the long table in the living room. It was rather tense.
Someone finally spoke after failing to hold back. "So, how should we split the company?"
"I have 0.5% of the shares. I want to withdraw that!"
"My shares are less than 1%, but apart from the 1%, I want compensation too!"
"Yes, yes! I don't mind a plot of the house. I just want compensation! We can't just bear the losses for nothing!"
They began speaking, and the huge living room was noisy. Some were getting out of their minds, asking to replace the president and removing Rowan from the company!
"Are you guys done?!" A majestic voice silenced them.
Xyla sat on the main seat. She was still a little weak. Her hands and feet got cold, she had beads of cold sweat, and she was shaking.
