Chapter 695 Start Over
After a few days, Dream Corporation’s anti-cancer drug was launched and received positive feedback from the public.
The drug was aimed to cure malignant tumors and would usually cost two to three hundred thousand per piece. However, Dream Pharmaceutical was only selling it for two to three thousand. This had helped lessen the financial burden for the families of those patients with malignant tumors.
Yandel took a look at the sales report and closed the file.
“Boss, it’s just as per your expectation. We would never be able to cover our cost even if we sold all of them.” Yandel placed a finger on his lips and sighed. “I would have thought that you were a fool if I didn’t know what kind of person you are.”
Natalie paused.
“Yandel, why do we need to earn so much money in our lifetime?” Natalie replied nonchalantly. “Saving lives are more important to me. I don’t mind losing this bit of money if it means saving lives and giving hope to a patient’s family.”
“Yes.”
Yandel stared at Natalie as she basked in the warm sun.
She was more mature than most people her age, even though she was only twenty-four. Not many could remember why they started doing what they were doing when they could earn billions.
Natalie was still the Natalie he knew even though Dream’s assets had grown over time.
“Oh right! Where’s Amelia?” Natalie took a bite of the cookies after finishing her coffee. “I didn’t get the chance to catch up with her due to my injury last time. How is she doing?”
“She has recovered from fever.” Yandel’s eyes dimmed.
“Then what?” Natalie probed instinctively. She was well aware that Amelia had recovered from her fever, or else Yandel wouldn’t come to work today.
“Nothing.”
Natalie wasn’t in the mood for cookies anymore. “What do you mean nothing? Yandel, don’t tell me you’re still denying your feelings for her. What will it take for you to confess your feelings to Amelia and ask her to be with you?”
“She has returned to Loang.” Tears welled up in Yandel’s eyes. “There’s no point admitting my feelings for her because I won’t be able to be with her. It’s better to let things be. I’ll cut off all hope she has for me. I don’t even care if she hates me.”
“What do you mean you can’t be with her?” Natalie frowned. “You haven’t even tried. How can you be so sure it won’t work? Besides, Amelia likes you a lot!”
“She’s the crown princess of Loang and is destined to marry the prince” Yandel laughed. “I can’t put my family in danger even though I’ve left them behind. It’s the same for her. Even though she has no regard for her family, many will have to pay for her choices. I’ve said it before. I can’t risk the safety and welfare of both my family to love her…”
Natalie was taken aback by his words.
She had always thought that the Smiths refused to accept Yandel because he was twelve years older than Amelia. But who would have thought that it was because Amelia was the crown princess of Loang.
At that moment, Natalie was at a loss for words.
“I’m sorry, Yandel. I should have…”
“It’s fine.” Yandel’s eyes welled up with tears. “She has fulfilled my wish to meet her by coming to Chanaea for my sake. There’s no way I can elope with her. That kind of stuff only exists in movies and novels.”
Natalie walked over to Yandel and patted his shoulders.
She had never seen Yandel look so helpless.
Just then, Yandel’s office phone rang.
He cleared his throat before picking up the phone. “How can I help you?”
“Mr. Moss, the anti-cancer drug has caused sudden deaths for two consecutive days…” His assistant reported in a state of panic. “The netizens are condemning Dream. FDA officers are also on their way over to investigate the matter.”
