Chapter 2033

Chapter 2033 Audit By Senior Management Within half a month, Colby had proved that he was more capable than Linda. He gained the latter’s recognition and she became his assistant.

After all, he was the only person who could strike a perfect balance between the commercial needs of a business and the technical complexities of their research.

That was James’ evaluation of him as Flora Verba Group’s CEO.

As the company obtained its products from the research institute, Colby was the best person to serve as the bridge between the two companies. At the same time, he could supervise the production of many low-cost medicines, benefiting a bigger pool of patients.

As Flora Verba Group released new products into the market at a rapid pace, Colby would approach the medical insurance companies proactively.

His actions drew Peregrine’s admiration, causing the latter to feel that he was a good candidate to succeed Roxanne.

On that day, an international flight landed at Horington Airport.

A slender-looking woman, dressed in a suit and high heels, strode confidently out of the terminal.

Behind her was a group of more than twenty men, all dressed in sharp black suits. Some were Epean, while others were Aplothians. Their ages were spread across both ends of the spectrum.

The oldest ones looked to be in their forties or fifties while the youngest ones were in their early twenties.

The entire group exuded a glamorous air and turned many heads at the airport.

Those in the know could immediately identify them as an international business negotiation delegation.

The intimidating air they exuded was to cow their opponents into submission.

Orchid, twenty-nine years of age, was one of Harvey’s three official apprentices. As the first student who studied under Harvey, she was considered Roxanne’s senior. Currently, she was the executive manager of GK Group’s operations in Epea.

She had flown into Horington from Dartan to take over the company’s Aplothian operations.

The company was extremely disappointed with Roxanne’s performance so far, especially after learning that she had established Flora Verba Group, whose share price had skyrocketed since then.

As a result, the company’s board of directors decided to remove her from all her positions.

Meanwhile, Orchid kept her arrival from Roxanne so that she could catch the latter off guard and find all the evidence of wrongdoing required by the company.

Soon, the huge management team arrived at the research institute unannounced.

Even though Colby had never seen Orchid before, he could tell from the garden violet pin worn on their collars that they were from the company’s Epean headquarters.

With a group of burly men leading the way, Orchid barged into the building with her entourage. The first thing they did was locked the doors to the research institute’s finance department. Thereafter, they quickly sealed the general manager’s office and changed all the locks to the data rooms at the institute.

Shocked by their brazen actions, Peregrine constantly demanded to know who they were.

Just as someone wanted to call the police, Colby stopped him and explained, “Everyone, please cooperate with them. They are part of the research institute’s senior management, and they are authorized to do this!”

Thereafter, Colby nodded at Orchid.

Eking out a slight smile, Orchid said to Colby, “I remember you. You almost joined the company’s senior management before coming to Chanaea with Roxanne.”

“That’s right! I remember you too. From the way you stormed in here, I can tell that you’re carrying out the orders of the senior management. That’s why I have no right to stop you.”

Despite his words, Colby had already called Roxanne’s phone discreetly.

She was constantly asking him what was going on but didn’t get an answer until she heard the conversation between Colby and Orchid.

She ended the call with a frown before ordering the butler to prepare her ride to the research institute.
