"This is just the beginning. Once our product launch auction kicks off, we'll drive the price of this year's new drug sky-high. By then, even if we demand an 8% increase, they'll still come running to beg us."
Kendall's eyes lit up at those words.
They had truly come a long way. Now that they were reaping both fame and fortune, they certainly had every right to be a little smug.
Kendall handed over several invitations and application letters. "These are from influential families and high-profile clients. They'll be hosting exclusive galas and networking events in the coming days. They are eagerly requesting your presence and hope we can secure an exclusive invitation for them to our upcoming launch auction."
Caroline merely glanced at them with disdain, a subtle smirk playing on her lips. These were the very same high-profile clients she had once gone to great lengths to secure, only to be met with rejection. Now, due to the buzz surrounding the auction, they were all rolling out the red carpet for her.
"Alright. Tell them my husband and I will be there," she replied dismissively.
Over the next few days, Caroline and her husband Simon became a constant presence at major events and across news outlets.
By then, everyone was singing praises of Caroline's triumphant comeback.
They said she was a successful woman, thriving in both her career and her love life, undoubtedly the ultimate winner in life.
"Ms. Hutchinson, these are the ten auction partners I've selected. Please have a look," Kendall reported.
"Since this is an auction, we need at least five pharmaceutical companies to participate with their products. With the soaring popularity of the upcoming launch auction, companies that were once impossible to invite are now scrambling to get in. After thorough evaluation, we've narrowed it down to these ten."
Caroline quickly scanned the list. When she spotted Georgia's name, a triumphant smirk spread across her face. With Georgia attending, the rest were just window dressing.
Lounging back smugly in her chair, Caroline was basking in her triumph when a sharp knock at the door shattered the moment.
There, in the doorway, stood a woman about her age, unmistakably dressed in a nurse's uniform.
"Well, well, Caroline, you sure are a busy bee these days! I haven't heard from you in ages. Did you forget about me?"
Caroline shot to her feet the moment Alicia appeared.
"What are you doing here?" she demanded.
As she spoke, Caroline shot a meaningful glance at Kendall, who was still in the office.
Alicia said, "Caroline, we used to be partners in crime, remember? What's wrong with an old friend dropping by to catch up?"
Upon hearing Alicia's words, Caroline shot another pointed glance at Kendall before speaking, "Kendall, you may go now."
After Kendall left, Caroline stared at Alicia with a cold glint in her eyes and hissed through clenched teeth:
"Alicia, what on earth do you want? I gave you 15 thousand back then, even got you a job at the General Hospital, and later gave you 500 thousand dollars. What else do you want?"
Alicia, unfazed by Caroline's hostile glare, swaggered over and unapologetically settled into Caroline's plush executive chair.
"You recommended me to the pharmacy at the General Hospital just to sell medicine? Don't you think that's a waste of my talent? Now that you've made a name for yourself, you're so quick to forget the person who once stood by you?"
Seething with rage, Caroline glared at Alicia's brazen arrogance. She hadn't expected to be blackmailed by this greedy, shameless woman.
"Tell me, what do you want this time?" Caroline snapped, struggling to keep her anger in check.
Alicia's red lips curved into a slow, knowing smile as she drawled, "Caroline, there's no need to be so harsh. I'm not asking for much, just a spot in your drug launch auction. That's not too big of an ask for someone like you, is it?"
