Chapter 279

“Imitations? Half our price?”

Amber gripped the phone tightly. Her face paled as she heard what Irina sald,

Chesire Group was doomed!

Life One was independently researched and developed by the company. It could improve and enhance cell activity. It slowed the

aging process and improved the body of middle-aged and elderly people.

The

Since their formula had been stolen, the researchers had been working day and night to come up with the correct formula once

more. They took confidentiality even more seriously, not leaking anything to the public.

Why, then, were there copies on the market? How did the others do it?

“It's common to see imitations of products in the pharmaceutical industry.” Irina said with a bitter expression. Her hands trembled

a little.

“I've asked the research lab. They said that it’s not hard to recreate drugs. As long as they reverse the composition of Life One,

they'll be able to analyze the drug’s ingredients.

“The imitations on the market must've used this method!”

Amber shook her head, feeling bleak.

What did it matter if they knew how the thieves knew to make the copies?

As more imitations appear, Life One’s competition on the market would be weaker. Although the imitation drugs were less

efficient, they were at a much lower price.

Most consumers paid more attention to the price. They would often pick the cheaper option to save cost.

It would not take long for the damage to hit New Chesire Group. While it might not be too obvious, Life One could lose its

competitive advantages if this problem was not nipped in the bud

They had made such a huge effort to launch it on the market!

“Miss Hahn, let me think about it.” Amber choked up and could not continue her sentence. She hung up immediately.

She was in total despair.

They had just received the blissful news that they were given the Jackman family’s businesses. However, no matter how big the

business was, they still needed a good product to support them. Life One was the lifeline of the Chesire family.

With these imitations on the shelves, their future looked bleak.

“Amber?” Patrick and the others all sense Amber’s mood shift. They asked tentatively. “Did...something

+15 BONOS

Amber smiled bitterly and opened her mouth to tell them what happened-

“Everything's fine!”

The door to the living room opened as Alexander slowly entered with a smile.

He took the Eagle Wing fighter jet back from Westwind Province. The moment he landed, he immediately received a report from

George about the imitations.

“Although the imitations are despicable, they lack the most important ingredient, and that’s the Tigerbite Herb.”

Alexander walked over to Amber and smiled at her. “We have a base in Larkspur County planting this because we needed to

solve the problem of source. Tigerbite Herb is very rare in other areas. They won't be able to solve this problem!”

Amber’s shock was slowly replaced by delight.

Alexander was right. They chose Larkspur County to build a base because the weather there was perfect for Tigerbite Herbs to

grow. Without enough Tigerbite Herb, those imitation drugs could not do anything about it. They could only produce in small

amounts.

This would not be a huge blow to New Chesire Group after all!

“Alex, thank you for the reminder. Boy, was I losing my mind over this!” Amber looked at Alexander and wiped away the tears in

her eyes.

She quickly took her phone out, looking visibly calmer. “I'll call Miss Hahn to tell them not to worry. We'll-”

She was interrupted. The moment she was about to dial, her phone lit up. An unknown number appeared on her phone.

“This phone call is from—Mordelville?”

Surprised, Amber looked at her call and hesitated for a while before picking up.

“Hehe!” A rather hoarse middle-aged man’s voice rang out mockingly. He sneered. “Miss Chesire of the New Chesire Group?

What an honor!”

His tone did not match what he was saying. He sounded extremely condescending.

“Sir, you're too kind.” Amber was a little confused. She said gently, “And you are—?”

“Michael Lowenthal of Mordel Pharmaceuticals!” The man was not planning on hiding his identity. He said smugly, “Miss Chesire,

New Chesire Group has been imitating our products, and this has affected our profits badly. I’m sure you'd be planning on giving

us an explanation, right?”

Amber was stunned. She slowly came to her reaction after a while.

The imitation of Life One on the market was done by Mordel Pharmaceuticals. Not only were they violating the New Chesire

Group’s patents, but they were also accusing the New Chesire Group of imitating them!

“Miss Chesire, it’s infuriating, isn’t it?” Michael sneered confidently. “Why don’t you have a look at your email?
