Chapter 231
The First Heir
After he hung up, Philip felt anxious, so he called Wynn.
âWynnie, what are you doing?â Philip asked.
Wynn replied, âIâm in the office. There are a lot of annoying things going on. Turnerâs Hospital did not
sign the contract with us.â
Wynn was in her office facing a huge stack of documents. She was extremely irritated.
The contract was not signed because Chloe had barged in and made a scene during the meeting.
In the end, Derrick contacted another party. Nevertheless, Derrick told the employees not to worry as
the company would reconsider their contract again.
Hence, the heavy burden fell onto Wynnâs shoulder in an instant.
She was the VP after all, and Derrick had assigned the task to her. Thus, she had to be successful in
securing a collaboration with Turnerâs hospital branch in Riverdale.
What Wynn did not know was that Chloe was the one messing things up secretly.
At the moment, Beacon Pharmaceuticalâs boss was Chloe. The reason the collaboration was
unsuccessful was that Chloe had pressured them to do so by using her familyâs name in Capital City.
In short, Chloe was creating all kinds of trouble for Wynn.
Women were indeed magical and terrifying creatures.
When Philip heard that, he replied quickly, âAlright, I got it.â
After hanging up the phone, Philip called Henry personally. âProfessor Turner, why was the contract
with Beacon not signed?â
Henry replied respectfully, âIt wasnât? I donât know. I ordered my employees to handle it. Mr. Clarke,
donât worry, Iâll call them and ask about it.â
Philip did not say anything.
Five minutes later, he received a phone call from Henry. Henry said, âMr. Clarke, donât worry. I already
asked my people to settle the contract with Beacon now. I think I will receive a reply soon.â
âAlright, thank you, Professor Turner,â Philip said politely.
At the same time, under the building where Beacon Pharmaceutical was located, a black Audi A8L
could be seen speeding over. It was Director Stanley from Turnerâs Hospital. He had come to Beacon
Pharmaceutical himself.
âVP Johnston, please go to the meeting room now. Mr. Derrick is looking for you. I heard that Director
Stanley from Turner is here to talk to you about the collaboration.â Mindy had run to the VPâs office and
was ecstatic.
Wynn was still worried about the matter. The moment she heard the news, she asked quickly, âReally?
Director Stanley is here?â
âYeah, go take a look. Theyâre asking for you to sign the contract.â Mindy was excited.
The company had been discussing their contract with Turner for a long time now, and it was finally
going to be sorted out.
Mindy was genuinely happy for Wynn because Wynn often looked after her like a big sister.
Having stared into space for a while, Wynn finally came back to her senses. She looked over at the
phone on her desk.
Had Philip done something to help her?
That was because not long ago, she was still on the phone talking to Philip.
Nevertheless, she thought about it for a while and eventually dismissed her suspicions.
Maybe not.
Turnerâs Hospital was too prestigious.
Even if Philip had some sort of relationship with Professor Turner, he would not have the right to have a
say in their contract.
After all, the benefits of the industry and company she was representing were on the line.
Wynn suppressed her urge to call Philip and ask him about it. She was wearing a cream-colored shirt
and a red skirt. She stood up and quickly made her way to the meeting room as her white heels clicked
against the floor.
In the meeting room, Wynn saw Director Stanley. They shook hands and exchanged pleasantries
politely.
âDirector Stanley, have you made up your mind?â Wynn asked.
Director Stanley adjusted his glasses and smiled. âVP Johnston, weâve concluded our investigation and
observation. We can sign the contract with your company now.â
Having said that, Director Stanley did not waste any time and signed the contract immediately.
âCongratulations, VP Johnston. I hope our collaboration will go smoothly.â Director Stanley stood up
and shook Wynnâs hand once more.
âDirector Stanley, thank you for trusting Beacon. We wonât disappoint you,â Wynn said courteously.
There was a smile on her face.
After sending Director Stanley and his people off, Wynn stumbled slightly.
She could not believe that they actually signed the contract.
It was a contact worth fifty million bucks!
âCongratulations, VP Johnston!â
âVP Johnston, youâre so amazing! Where are you going to treat us for dinner tonight?â
âItâs finally done, VP Johnston. It would be too mean if you donât treat us to dinner.â
The company became lively immediately as everyone stood up to clap and congratulate Wynn.
Some even took out bottles of champagne and party poppers.
Derrick joined in as well. After saying something congratulatory, he suggested, âAlright, tonight, weâll
have dinner at Arc de Triumph, what does everyone think?â
âOh! Thank you, Mr. Hall!â
Everyone cheered excitedly.
Wynn was so happy that she forgot about the date she had with Philip that night.
