Chapter 503
The Greatest Man Alive
Josef also had a bad temper. He became angry as well after being scolded by Milo.
âThis was never my fault. You shouldnât blame me.â Josef put his hands in his pockets, and his polite attitude was gone.
Milo was so angry that he took a few deep breaths. âI shouldnât have promised General Perkins in the first place. I actually did business with trash like you!â
Ferran also sensed something was wrong and suddenly figured out that Josef had used them to deal with Mr. MacMillan.
Josef shook his head and said, âI think you should stay calm instead of being judgmental.â
âFirst, I started delivering the medicine early in the morning. Mr. MacMillan came over to mess with us and blocked out carsâ¦â
âSecondly, as a small business owner, I canât deal with a provincial director. He could shut down my company in the blink of an eye⦠Besides, I seem to have asked someone to inform your hospital that the delivery of these medicines might be delayed, and you also agreed.â
Milo couldnât help frowning.
He sneered and said, âYou just donât want to admit your mistake, do you? Is it so hard to admit your ignorance?â
Josef touched his chin and smiled helplessly. âIf you have to put the blame on me, I canât say anything else. Whatever you say.â
Miloâs face darkened, and he said, âAfter this batch of medicine is delivered, we will terminate the cooperation immediately!â
Milo felt very annoyed that Josef had taken advantage of him. Besides, Josef had delayed too long by waiting for them to come over and deal with this matter, which made Milo very angry.
âMr. Wordsworth, calm down. We are indeed not to blame for this matter. Mr. Evans probably was a bit negligent, but we did not deliberately delay your medicineâ¦â Bjorne noticed that they were about to quarrel and immediately came forward to persuade Milo.
Milo said, âI know itâs not your fault. Iâm only dissatisfied with his attitude. Doesnât he know the importance of medicine? People will die if the medicines canât arrive in time!â
Bjorne hurriedly winked at Josef. She knew that Josef was a stubborn man.
If someone could persuade him patiently and slowly, Josef might give in and admit his mistakes.
However, shouting and cursing didnât seem to work, and Josef would even slap their faces.
Josef said calmly, âOf course, I know. But who is to blame for allowing Mr. MacMillan to do such a thing and let him become a director? I might be able to solve it this time with my ability, but what about next time? What if someone more powerful than Mr. MacMillan comes to trouble me? What if weâre not Poly Pharmaceutical? What if this batch of medicine is for some other hospital instead of yours?â
Josefâs words were straight to the point. Indeed. The truth was Josef hadnât done anything wrong.
Besides, if Milo had to find someone to blame, it should be the one who let Mr. MacMillan come to power.
Milo heard Josefâs words and didnât refute him immediately but pondered in silence.
After a long time, Milo sighed slowly and said, âI finally know why General Perkins helped you. Your thoughts are very consistentâ¦â
Josef smiled and said, âMaybe it was my mistake as well. I should have communicated with you earlier.â
Seeing Josefâs sudden change in attitude, Milo couldnât help but twitch his mouth slightly and say in a hateful voice, âStubborn brat!â
Josef shrugged, but he was not angry.
Milo said, âIâll forgive you this time. But if this happens again, I hope you will contact me immediately and donât make us come over to find you!â
Josef said, âI understand, Mr. Wordsworth. Iâll remember. Our businessâ¦â
Milo said, âIâve promised General Perkins.â
Josef said, âOh, I see. Then after we finish the developing process of Carter Medicinal Powder, we will give the first batch to the hospitals of the Rosefinch War Zone.â
Milo was shocked. His beard trembled, and he said in disbelief, âWhat did you say? Carter Medicinal Powder?â
âYeah⦠I bought its formula for 60 million dollars, and it is currently under development,â Josef said with a smile.
He was glad to see Miloâs reaction because Milo had reprimanded him just now.
Ferran was puzzled. The officials of Hechland had negotiated with the Carter Group of Manskarta and wanted to buy the formula of Carter Medicinal Powder, but they couldnât get it in the end. They couldnât believe that Josef actually got this precious formula. It was just incredible!
âAre you serious? Is that a deal?â Milo asked excitedly.
âOf course. But I might somehow delay the developing progress, so I canât guarantee efficiency,â Josef yawned and said lazily.
The corners of Miloâs mouth twitched wildly, and he cursed âstubborn bratâ repeatedly in his heart. He was so angry that he felt like burning.
Bjorneâs mouth also twitched, and she felt that Josef was indeed stubborn. He had been scolded by Milo just now, and now he was showing off his power with Carter Medicinal Powder.
Milo could understand what Josef meant. If their cooperation actually ended, their hospitals wouldnât have anything to do with Carter Medicinal Powder in the future.
Milo couldnât help being angry and felt that Josef was very insidious and cunning. If he became the only one who couldnât get Carter Medicinal Powder when it came to the market, he might have to beg Josef and negotiate with him politely.
At that time, he would lose his dignity!
âOur cooperation will continue. When Carter Medicinal Powder comes out, please give us the priority of supplying.â At this moment, Milo was amiable.
âNo problem⦠Although youâre a little grumpy and like to blame others for no reason, youâre still a good person. I have no objection,â Josef said with a smile.
Milo was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes. It turned out that Josef was indeed stingy and even took this opportunity to scold him.
***
In the evening, Josef generously invited Milo and Ferran to dinner and entertained them with some good wine from Wendyâs house.
âYou stubborn brat. You won! I havenât lost any battle in yearsâ¦â In the end, Milo became very drunk and couldnât help but scold Josef.
Josef didnât mind his words.
He laughed and said, âI will send Mr. Wordsworth to the car. Mr. Wells, take careâ¦â
Ferran looked at Josef with a strange expression, still couldnât believe that Josef actually had taken advantage of Milo.
Josef finally felt relieved. All he needed to do now was wait for Carter Medicinal Powder to come to the market. It seemed that Noah was about to lose his 20 million dollars.
