Chapter 238

Vicky asked, “Hey, Frank. Where are you?”

“Skywater Bay.”

Med for a peace “Then come over to Verdant Hotel. Grande Corp has just conference to announce the Rejuvenation Pill.”

“Wait, have you seen the news?” Frank asked. “The Salazars‘ press conference is held at the Verdant Hotel too.”

Vicky nodded. “Yep. They are doing it on the nineteenth floor, while we’re doing it on the twentieth.”

Frank laughed. “So you are hell bent on messing with the Salazars!”

“Of course,” Vicky growled through her teeth. “And I’ll wipe the floor with them.”

She did not think highly of the Salazars in the first place, and they were beyond reconciliation after they killed Obadiah Longman.

“Alright, I’ll be right there,” Frank replied, hanging up and heading straight to Verdant Hotel’s twentieth floor.

There were not many people present, save for Walter Turnbull’s side of the family.

Only Neil Turnbull from the main branch of the family showed up, with Paul Keaton once again joining him. “You’re crazy, Vicky–the Salazars‘ press conference is today, and you just had to rain on their parade? They’re launching the Beauty Pill, y’know!”

Vicky simply smiled. “He’s launching his Beauty Pill, while I am launching my Rejuvenation. Pill. What’s the problem?”

Neil shook his head exasperatedly. “My people have already looked into it. The Beauty Pill’s effect is obvious, and there’s no stopping the demand once it’s launched. Is your pill going to hold its own?”

“Then have you looked into the effect of the Rejuvenation Pill?” Vicky asked in return.

Neil scoffed. “That bastard’s pill? Would it even compare to Obadiah Longman’s Beauty Pill?”

Frank appeared just then, chuckling. “You don’t seem confident about my pill, Mr. Turnbull.”

“Thank you for coming, Frank.” Vicky’s cool gaze turned mild when she saw him.

Frank nodded, while Neil glanced between them. “Shut up. Who are you compared to Obadiah?

“Word of advice, Neil…” Vicky said just then. “You should invest in the Rejuvenation Pill. The price will skyrocket as soon as it launches, and you’ll make bank. Think of it as supporting your cousin’s business, too.”

“Invest in the Rejuvenation Pill?” Neil blew a raspberry. “I’m sorry, but all my money’s on the Beauty Pill. I have nothing to spare for you.”

Vicky frowned right then but gave him a gentle warning nonetheless. “You should really dump your stock of Beauty Pills as soon as you can, Neil. Its value will stagnate soon enough.”

“Dump it?” Neil snorted. “what, and buy stocks of Rejuvenation Pill instead? Thanks but not thanks. I’d lose my entire fortune just because of that.”

Did Vicky take him for a fool?! He was not about to invest in Frank’s pill!

Vicky shook her head exasperatedly.

She did what she could, but he refused to believe her and there was nothing she could do.

That was when Noel arrived, mobbed by the crowd.

The journalists were taking as many photos as they could, even as Vicky and Frank approached her.

“Thank you for coming, Ms. York,” Vicky greeted her.

Noel smiled. “I’ve made a deal with Mr. Lawrence, and I’m here to keep my word. Moreover, the Rejuvenation Pill is special and worth endorsing.”

“Thank you, and please take a seat. The launch will start soon,” Vicky said.

Dan Zimmer arrived just then as well, leaving the crowd and journalists stunned.

“I–Is that Dan Zimmer of Flora Hall?”

“He came too?”

“Wow… Grande Corp actually managed to invite him!”
