Some time ago, there was a crusade against this pharmaceutical company that was selling fake drugs. The fake drugs were ineffective on the patients, so the patients from a few hospitals that bought this drug died because of it.
The hospital was also berated by the public for poor supervision and management.
After that incident, all hospitals boycotted the drugs produced by this company.
Once the investigation was over, this pharmaceutical company lost all its customers. Their source of income was cut off, and they were about to declare bankruptcy.
Moreover, they might have to compensate the victims.
At this time, Sheldon Corporation’s acquisition of this pharmaceutical company was tantamount to attracting unnecessary trouble. They might even lose their reputation.
This pharmaceutical company would only drag them down. They also had to pay out a large amount of compensation.
This was simply a losing business.
Yvette did not believe that the shareholders of Sheldon Corporation did not get any side benefits for coming up with this proposal.
She took a look at the other project proposal.
It became clear at a glance.
It was an additional investment for the previous project. However, the project in its early stage was not performing up to standard.
It could even be considered a failure.
Thus, they should cut their losses. Giving that project an additional investment was tantamount to wasting money.
It was a useless project.
This proposal was put aside for several months, yet it was suddenly brought up again. This made it hard for Yvette not to speculate about what happened in between.
However, it was too late to get someone to investigate now.
If these two project proposals were approved, Sheldon Corporation’s capital would be affected, and its image would take a hit.
Yvette looked out at the passing scenery after briefly understanding the situation.
Many passersby and cars hurried past them. The wind also blew in from the window.
She stared out blankly without focus.
Yvette just felt upset.
Her eyes were downcast when she thought about Lance.
Soon, the sadness disappeared without a trace.
Getting through this was most important at this moment.
This hint of bleakness could not dull her colorful life.
Her life would only get better.
Zane looked at her from the front and could only see her side profile.
After a few days of interaction, Zane could feel Yvette’s changes.
Yvette was more reserved, calm, and restrained.
He wondered what Yvette went through when she went missing.
However, Fiona warned everyone in the company that no one was allowed to mention this matter, let alone ask Yvette in person.
Thus, they just took it as Yvette had gone on a vacation.
When they arrived at the office, Yvette and Zane went upstairs.
They were more than ten minutes late for the meeting, but Yvette did not care.
Before she entered the conference room, Yvette could hear chatter and laughter. Some people seemed to be having a good time.
However, some were frustrated and dismissed the others, but they were shot back at.
“Ms. Quimbey is here.”
Zane stepped forward to open the door.
Yvette went in and sat in the place where Lance used to sit.
