Chapter 840
The press conference regarding the acquisition of Dexmed Pharmaceutical went on without a hitch.
Natalie requested photos of the event from the Public Relations Department and had them printed out on the spot.
After the event ended, Natalie left Dream Pharmaceutical and bought two bouquets of fresh flowers before heading
to a cemetery on the outskirts of town.
Next to Jennie's tombstone was a newly installed tombstone for Yara.
Natalie bent over and placed a bouquet of lilies before each tombstone.
“Mom, Yara, I'm here to see you.”
Yara had never gotten over the fact that Jennie had brought Natalie away instead of her in the past. Now that Yara
had passed away, Natalie took it upon herself to arrange Yara's tombstone beside their mother's.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie's hair fluttered gently in the breeze.
She pushed her hair behind her ear and knelt. Then, she set fire to the photos of the press conference for Dexmed
Pharmaceutical's acquisition and tossed them into the small censer before her mother's tombstone.
Flames licked at the photographs and rapidly turned them into a pile of ashes.
Natalie muttered, “Mom, I've taken back Granddad's Dexmed Pharmaceutical.”
Her lips curved into a faint smile as determination filled her gaze.
She continued, “I'll do my best to run Dexmed Pharmaceutical and practice Granddad's principles. The company
will strive to bring life-saving medication to the public and contribute to the well-being of society. But Mom, I'm
going to defy your wishes. I want to uncover my background and investigate Blaze, the organization Granddad
betrayed in the past. It's going to be dangerous, but both you and Granddad have always told me that we can't only
think of ourselves. With power comes responsibility. Granddad chose to fight against them, and as his
granddaughter and your daughter, I'm following in his footsteps, and I won't stop until I uncover the truth.”
After that, Natalie got on her knees before Jennie's tombstone and muttered a prayer before leaving.
Meanwhile, Samuel was busy decorating the greenhouse where he planned to propose to Natalie.
He wanted to create an unforgettable proposal for her. To that end, he hired a landscape architect to decorate the
venue. Nonetheless, Samuel showed up to supervise the preparation process and ensure everything was done to
perfection.
Justin thought he was about to go blind from the number of pink roses in the greenhouse.
“Samuel, you're doomed! You're a lovesick fool!”
“I am.” Samuel added, “I would gladly make the same choices even if I have countless chances to change my fate.”
Justin wondered why he agreed to help Samuel decorate the proposal venue and subject himself to a cringefest.
Samuel's still the same as always, yet when he turns up the dial on romance, he's a gushy sight.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmid Justin's musings, Samuel said, “Stop daydreaming, Justin. Help me move these flowers.”
“Yes, yes!”
Justin dared not poke fun at his friend and obediently moved the flowers as instructed.
After a busy morning, the setting for the proposal began to take shape.
Justin and Samuel left the greenhouse and walked onto a grassy field outside.
The former had been itching for some proper sparring for a while, and he playfully punched Samuel's chest.
The punch drew a groan out of Samuel, who even stumbled a couple of steps backward.
Justin had used a lot of strength because his abilities were far weaker than Samuel's.
In fact, Samuel could easily dodge Justin's punch with his sharp senses. Hence, Justin had not expected that Samuel
would be unable to evade his attack and even be caught off guard.
“Are you all right, Sam?” A panicky Justin explained, “I was just fooling around. I thought you would dodge my
punch. I swear, I wasn't trying to attack you on the sly!”
