Chapter 1096 The Greatest Wisdom is Honesty and Transparency!
At the Qacalisle Island's main administration office.
Kelsey looked at the medical system construction plan for Qacalisle Island with a troubled expression.
Her assistant, Eddie, stood in front of her, giving a report on the current progress of Qacalisle Island's development.
"Ms. Pierpoint, it's been almost ten days since Mr. Ramsey left Qacalisle Island, and Shania Coyle, the heiress of Nine Stars Group in Elaria, who promised to help us set up the world's most advanced medical service system and provide the necessary personnel, still hasn't arrived.
"We've tried reaching out to Ms. Coyle several times without success. Her office keeps avoiding our questions and never gives us a clear answer.
"In just two days, the deadline for Mr. Ramsey and Ms. Coyle's agreement will pass.
"Ms. Pierpoint, what should we do now?
"Should we tell Mr. Ramsey about this?"
Kelsey thought for a moment and said, "I'll try contacting Shania again. Maybe she's just been really busy and hasn't had the chance to look into this yet."
"Fine." Eddie hesitated for a moment before helping Kelsey dial the number for Elaria Nine Stars Pharmaceutical.
"Hello, Ms. Donohuei, this is Eddie, Ms. Pierpoint's assistant at Qacalisle Island. Could you please connect me with Ms. Coyle? Ms. Pierpoint needs to discuss something important with Ms. Coyle."
"I'm sorry, Ms. Coyle is unavailable to take the call!" Ceana Donohuei, from the Nine Stars Group executives' office, responded coldly.
Eddie had received this kind of response many times before. Each time, they refused, and he couldn't get through to Shania.
This time, Eddie was fed up. He responded sharply, "Ms. Donohuei, you can refuse to transfer the call, but I have one message I need you to pass along to Ms. Coyle.
"If you continue to avoid Ms. Pierpoint's calls, I believe Mr. Ramsey or Ms. Luella will contact you directly."
Ceana hesitated for a moment before saying, "Wait a second."
A short while later, Shania's cold voice came through the phone, "This is Shania Coyle. What is it? Speak."
Kelsey took the call. "Ms. Coyle, this is Kelsey Pierpoint from Qacalisle Island. Eight days ago, you made an agreement with Mr. Ramsey aboard the cruise ship at Qacalisle Island. Do you remember?
"Nine Stars Pharmaceutical promised to help Qacalisle Island establish the world's most advanced medical system within ten days, including sending professional technical staff to assist with training and operating the system.
"Perhaps Ms. Coyle has been too busy with other matters and this plan has been delayed.
"So, I'm calling today to ask, when does Nine Stars Group plan to begin the construction of this medical system?"
Shania said coldly, "Kelsey, I didn't understand what you just said. When did I make an agreement with the Mr. Ramsey you're referring to? I don't remember anything about that."
Kelsey was taken aback. "Ms. Coyle, surely you haven't forgotten, right?
"Eight days ago, your grandfather, Kendrick Coyle, collapsed on the cruise ship. You offered to help Qacalisle Island build a complete medical system in exchange for Mr. Ramsey's assistance in saving him. You promised Mr. Ramsey it would be finished within ten days. Have you really forgotten?"
Shania on the other end of the line sneered. "I promised Mr. Ramsey to help you build a medical system? Hah, I don't remember that!
"Do you have a contract? If you do, I can immediately arrange for the staff to carry it out."
Kelsey was taken aback, and then chuckled. "Ms. Coyle, doesn't a verbal agreement count? As far as I know, verbal agreements are legally binding contracts too."
Shania said coldly, "I only acknowledge written agreements. If you don't have one, then this conversation is over."
Kelsey shook her head helplessly. "Ms. Coyle, we don't have a written contract. But you did make a promise—"
