As Daniel walked over, he called out, "Ms. Henderson, we're short on hands! The storage area is huge, and even with the extra guys you brought, it's not enough!"
"Have them join the work," Yolanda casually instructed, and with that, Daniel's crew surrounded Gregory and his men.
"Come along, won't you?" Daniel smirked while eyeing Gregory.
"I work for Quinlan Pharmaceuticals, and you have the nerve to make me do grunt work?" Gregory sneered in defiance.
"Quinlan Pharmaceuticals?" Yolanda raised an eyebrow slightly. "And that's supposed to mean something?"
"Of course! If our boss gives the word, we could buy out ten clinics like yours!"
Gregory expected Yolanda to look shaken after his bold declaration, but instead, she simply gave a detached nod. "Oh."
"Quit the act! You've messed with the wrong guy today! Once I report this to Ms. Quinlan, you're done for!" Gregory threatened.
Yolanda pulled out her phone and dialed a number.
"Melina, bring your team over to clean my clinic."
Gregory sneered at the mention of Melina's name and rolled his eyes. There was no way Yolanda could order Melina around, and he wasn't even sure if she had really called Melina.
"You think I'm going to fall for your bluff just because you made a phone call?"
Gregory didn't believe for a second that Yolanda could actually get Melina to show up. The two groups stood in a tense standoff for over 20 minutes.
