She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 327

This was Xavorn, after all.

When it came to calling the shots in Xavorn's pharmaceutical industry, the Crowell Group and Quanterra Biolabs weren't at the top of the list.

That was because the Carter Group existed.

Across the global pharmaceutical world, the Carters were one of the biggest names.

If you didn't count diversified conglomerates like Stellaris PharmaTech, which had a hand in every industry, the Carter Group could be considered the undisputed leader in pharmaceuticals.

This was especially true in Xavorn, which was the Carters' home turf.

Soon, Elias replied to Melanie's text:

[It was my mom. She was afraid I'd go and steal Leonard's thunder.]

Melanie looked at her phone, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Elias's mother was a powerhouse, and the whole family was in the pharmaceutical business.

Originally, with Elias on board, Melanie had thought the development of the new cancer therapeutic could get started quickly.

But instead, Elias had told her that the research had to be done in secret.

This was because the Carter Group didn't want to make a big show of cutting into the Crowell Group and Quanterra Biolabs' market share.

The issue involved some personal favors and deals on his mother's side.

Elias couldn't convince his mother, and he wanted to be a good son who didn't defy her wishes.

As a result, Melanie had initially refused Elias's request to develop the new drug.

No funding, no lab, no staff…

She had nothing she needed. How was she supposed to develop a new cancer therapeutic?

Even if Melanie was hailed as a pharmaceutical genius, she was still human, not a god.

But fortunately, Dominic had cheated!

If Dominic hadn't cheated, she wouldn't have been able to use the hundred-million-dollar nest egg Camilla had saved for him to build her lab.

And subsequent events, like Adrian Mercer's team and the Hale Group's massive investment, would never have happened.

Melanie suddenly realized that all the traps she had laid after Dominic's affair had ultimately ended up benefiting Elias.

[You really should thank Dominic for cheating.]
