Could it be…
Her bright eyes darted back and forth as a look of surprise dawned on Melanie’s face.
Was Schrödinger's Pill really that influential, even to someone like Preston?
Bryant had originally invited Melanie to this seaside restaurant to celebrate her divorce from Dominic, hoping to create a romantic atmosphere and win some points with her.
But instead of a romantic candlelight dinner, it had turned into a pharmaceutical project seminar.
Meanwhile, Dominic had already completed his onboarding paperwork.
Starting tomorrow, he would be a project director at the Royce Group.
“Thank you, Dad… Thank you for giving me a chance to turn my life around.”
Standing in Nathaniel’s office, Dominic raised a hand and swore to the heavens.
“I, Dominic, swear on my life that I will change my ways and serve the Royce family with utmost loyalty… And… I’ll do my best to win Melanie back. Please, believe me no matter what, Dad. I truly love her.”
Dominic’s voice was choked with emotion, his eyes red. Nathaniel was deeply moved.
Gregory was the man who had saved his life.
Dominic was his savior's only son.
And the Hale family had been brought to ruin by Melanie’s own hand.
Considering all that, Nathaniel felt he had a duty to help Dominic.
He couldn’t sway Melanie’s determination to divorce Dominic.
His daughter had grown her wings and wouldn’t listen to him anymore.
However, he could help Dominic in his career where he was able.
So, when Gregory pleaded with him to give Dominic a job at the Royce Group, he had agreed without a second thought.
“Dominic, I trust your father, so naturally, I trust you… Work hard here at the Royce Group. As for Melanie… being close might give you an advantage. It’s not like there’s no hope of winning her back.”
“Yes! Thank you for your forgiveness and for this opportunity, Dad!”
Dominic bowed deeply to Nathaniel.
Although he and Melanie had filed for divorce and were in the waiting period, he felt things were still moving in a positive direction.
Because now, he was a part of Nathaniel.
In a way, he was still a part of the Royce family.
Dominic was ecstatic.
Gregory stared straight ahead, his face devoid of expression.
“Do you know… why I begged Nathaniel to take you into his company?”
Dominic blinked, puzzled.
“So it would be easier for me to win Melanie back?”
As soon as the words left his mouth, he heard Gregory let out a cold laugh.
“And do you know… why our Hale family has relied so heavily on the Royce family’s agricultural research facilities for so long?”
Dominic scratched his head, not understanding why his father was suddenly asking him these things.
“Of course, it’s because the medicinal herbs Nathaniel produces have a stable supply and high efficacy. They’re the best in the business, the gold standard in traditional medicine.”
“Then why is it that only Nathaniel’s medicinal herbs can be the gold standard?”
Dominic was getting lost in his father’s questions.
“Dad, what are you trying to say?!”
Seeing Dominic’s impatience, Gregory fell silent for a moment. His expression gradually turned cold and sinister.
“The reason only the Royce family’s research facilities can provide a stable supply of rare herbs with superior efficacy is that the Royce Group has a unique, proprietary growth formula… The reason I got you into the group is so you can steal that formula for me.”
