Chapter 321

"You're just fueling the fire! It won't solve the problem at all!" Wilbur exclaimed.Miriam argued, "Mr. Crews, it's easy for you to say! It would be like admitting to plagiarism if we don't fight against this. Then, we'd have even less ground to stand on. Are we just going to let Herbal Essence manipulate us like that?"She continued, "It's exactly why they're so aggressive! We need to confront them head-on. We shouldn't let them believe that we're pushovers and have to prevent them from taking advantage of us."Wilbur sarcastically replied, "I thought that you had some tricks up your sleeve. All you do is talk big. Do you think Herbal Essences is stupid, or do you think the judge is?"In the end, after all your barking, you won't get anything. And in the end, both companies' reputations will be ruined! You're just a small company, so you can be shameless like that. But we can't afford that!"Miriam felt annoyed and slammed the table. She angrily pointed a finger at Wilbur. "Who

Chapter 322

"No, Ms. Cartwright, you must be joking!" Of course, Wilbur refused to accept it. He quickly said, "How can you change your mind so quickly? It's not a decision that you can make so lightly!"Helen looked serious and said word for word, "Enough. Just do what I say."Wilbur wanted to argue back, but Thomas stopped him and whispered, "You need to stop talking. Ms. Cartwright will really fire you if you don't! It's happened more than a dozen times in Helenova. It's not a joke. Even a general manager would hesitate to go against her!"Helen was known for her decisiveness. No one could challenge her authority. Pamela glared at Woody. She thought that he was meddling too much. On the other hand, Miriam felt that Woody was was admirable for standing up for York Corporation. She wasn't aware that Pamela didn't appreciate it at all.However, Pamela soon felt relieved. Since Helen had insisted on fighting till the end, all the losses would be handled by Helenova Ventures then. It was

Chapter 323

The main lineage of the Sparks family was divided into three families. Miranda was the eldest daughter of the second wife. She had been learning medicine ever since she was young. At the age of 14, she entered a prestigious school with excellent grades. Then, she received her doctorate at the age of 22, becoming the youngest doctor in alternative medicine in history.Among all her siblings, Miranda was recognized as the most talented. However, her status in Herbal Essences wasn't that high. Even in recent years, her presence in the company had gradually diminished.And it was all because she was a woman. In the eyes of the old-school men, when girls were of age, they had to get married. Then, once married, they wouldn't be entrusted with important jobs in order to avoid giving opportunities to non-blood relatives to seize their family assets. "Ms. Sparks, there's a gentleman called Wilbur Crews who wants to meet you. He claims to be an undercover agent sent by Helenova Vent

Chapter 324

Wilbur cursed as he left the hotel to get to his car. Not only did he take a huge risk when he came over, but the most important point was that he was representing Adele. Miranda's refusal to see him was a blatant disregard for his efforts. He hadn't hesitated to bear the reputation of a traitor so that he could infiltrate Helenova Ventures, and that was a great sacrifice not only for Herbal Essences, but for the whole Sparks family too!Given Miranda's blatant disrespect for her family's hero, it was no wonder that she was being treated poorly at Herbal Essences! If she couldn't understand the basics of having manners, then she deserved to be targeted by her family.Wilbur had already made up his mind—once this was over, as their great hero, he would go over to Adele and sue Miranda to the ground!He would let this woman who looked down on everyone get a taste of hardship.…When Pamela returned to her company, she felt incredibly uneasy. The lawsuit wasn't going to be

Chapter 325

"You're so kind, Jerry!" Pamela felt so touched. The last time that she'd felt so touched was when Woody had proposed to her four years ago. She had even cried from excitement!It was such a pity that she had completely forgotten about it. Now, all she could think about were the difficulties ahead."I was wondering if you knew anyone in Herbal Essences?" Pamela asked.Jeremiah said, "No problem, I'll establish a relationship with them right away. It's not a big deal! Herbal Essences, right? I'll remember that."Please tell me the specifics so that I can decide which side of the Sparks to talk to."When he mentioned the Sparks, a small flame of hope lit up in Pamela's heart. Then, she quickly recounted the situation to Jeremiah.However, Jeremiah began to frown as he listened to her story.Patent infringement was no small matter!Similar incidents abroad were enough to bankrupt large companies. And although the local situation wasn't that serious, more and more attention had

Chapter 326

Soon, the day of the trial arrived. Outside the intimidating court gate, two cars came from two different directions. Helen was the first to get out of the car. She was wearing a well-tailored suit that accentuated her figure while her hair was tied up in a ponytail. She looked confident and ready.The second figure to get out of the car was Pamela. She was wearing a long trench coat that complemented her graceful figure and had paired it with some black high heels. She exuded an air of elegance as she walked.The two women simply exchanged a silent look and walked inside in sync. Meanwhile, Miriam was carrying a large briefcase. Miriam didn't actually know what was in it, but it wasn't difficult to tell from her slightly downcast mood that it probably didn't contain any damning evidence. If it did, she would've looked more confident. In the court, the plaintiff was in place. Miranda sat in her seat, exuding an air of authority. Even the senior lawyer who sat beside

Chapter 327

"That's private," the defendant's lawyer immediately stated.The judge, with a fair expression, said, "This case involves the source of the formula. The defendant must answer the question."So, Pamela had no choice but to tell the truth. "Mr. Samuel Hills from the garrison," she stated.Upon hearing this, Helen frowned.Hadn't Pamela always emphasized independent research and development? Why was Samuel Hills involved now? The plaintiff's lawyer replied, "We request for the third party to testify.""Granted," the judge answered. "We'll temporarily believe that there's this third party. But we request to inspect the original samples!" the plaintiff's lawyer said.This was like landing two heavy punches on Pamela's weak spots.Nevertheless, Pamela nodded at Miriam and said, "Alright." So, Miriam took out the remaining cream and reluctantly handed it to Miranda. The moment Miranda picked it up and opened it, her calm expression immediately shifted.She was in disbelief,

Chapter 328

"You… What are you doing?" Miranda's face quickly turned red.She had never been married before, and when she was suddenly called "Ma'am", it made her want to curse out loud. The fact that she'd managed to keep herself composed already showed remarkable restraint."Mr. Snider was my mentor. Do you really not know him?" Woody seriously asked.Miranda's hands shook uncontrollably, and her eyes flashed with complicated emotions. Miranda suppressed her excitement and said, "How can you prove that you're his apprentice?"Woody had been prepared for the question. He took out the set of golden needles from his bag and held them out for Miranda with both hands.As expected, Miranda stretched out her hand and carefully opened the bag. Suddenly, her eyes were full of tears.Her fingertips touched the needles as if she were caressing treasure."Mr. Snider left me a note in his own handwriting. It mentioned his wife's name. But I came here in a rush and forgot to bring it with me. But

Chapter 329

However, he wasn't doing that. In fact, he was even avoiding his own wife! What a complete scumbag! "Mr. Snider is suffering from a terminal illness," Miranda explained.Woody widened his eyes. Was Miranda joking? The most powerful skill that his mentor had in his life was his medical expertise.How could he—someone who raised such an outstanding apprentice like Woody—not be able to cure his own illness?Miranda seriously said, "I'm not lying. His illness started when he was young, and it grew more and more serious over the years."If he hadn't been proficient in his medical skills, he would've been six feet under a long time ago.""I see. So, he hid it really well. I've been studying medicine under him for so long and never even noticed!" Woody exclaimed. To have such an illness yet still be a medical genius alone deserved praise."He's just too stubborn." Miranda smiled bitterly and helplessly said, "He definitely didn't want to burden us, so he found a place to hide

Chapter 330

"Seven Luminescent Ice Lotus, Obsidian Flame Grass, and the True Essence of Heavenly Crystals!" With each item mentioned, Woody's expression became more and more solemn. These three medicinal herbs were all at the level of national treasures. And in addition to their high prices, they were also extremely rare. For example, a century-old ginseng might be rare, but Woody could still get it as long as he was willing to pay a high price for it. Especially for a company like Herbal Essences, they wouldn't need to search far and wide to find it. In fact, they'd have at least a hundred in their own medicinal storage. For the average person, century-old ginseng was definitely already a rare item. However, compared to the real treasures, it wasn't even worthy of being on the same list.As a direct descendant of the Herbal Essences family, Miranda would've had many opportunities to come into contact with many medicinal ingredients. But the fact that just these names of the ingredients
