Lauren smiled confidently. “Don’t worry, I have Dr. Lloyd–he’ll help me.”
Eunice immediately gave Andrew a skeptical look She said sharply, “If you truly care about Ms. Rhodes‘ wellbeing, you shouldn’t try to show off like this. How exactly do you plan to help her recover the 60 million?”
Andrew replied with a smile, “Relax. While the Northern District no longer exists, I know some inside information about Atlas‘ downfall. Recovering the money shouldn’t be too difficult.”
He knew that Dylan and Natasha had divided Northern District’s assets and territory between them. He knew that getting the money back would be as simple as approaching these two powerhouses.
Eunice scoffed. “You make it sound so easy. Mr. Giordano was one of Jayrodale’s elite, so what gives a mere doctor like you the audacity to speak so boldly? I have just one request: you can risk your own neck if you want, but please don’t drag Ms. Rhodes into it.”
Lauren frowned. “This must be the hundredth time today I’ve heard you speak to Dr. Lloyd in that tone, and I don’t want there to be a next time. If there is, you can go work as Michael’s secretary instead–he’s been lusting after you for ages anyway!”
Eunice’s face turned pale, and she looked like she was about to cry. Andrew found this amusing -clearly, Michael’s reputation within the company was quite intimidating.
Just then, Marcus approached them and bowed deeply. “Mr. Lloyd, you truly are more than meets the eye. I apologize for my earlier behavior–you’re the real deal.”
Anyone securing a director’s position with a single investment had to be formidable. Andrew waved off the praise. “You’re too kind, Mr. Chapman. By the way, I heard in the meeting that you’re facing some difficulties. If you need any help, don’t hesitate to ask!” After interacting with Marcus, Andrew found him to be someone worth befriending. However, Marcus shook his head and replied, “It’s fine. It’s a complicated situation, and I don’t want to get you involved. Worst case scenario, I’ll just quit as head of pharmaceuticals, and Michael can find whoever he wants to replace me!”
Though Marcus did not reveal the exact nature of his troubles, his worried expression made it clear the pressure was significant.
Andrew did not press the issue, understanding that Marcus probably did not believe he could help. Nonetheless, with Andrew’s medical expertise, he knew he could actually.solve Marcus‘ problems at their root.
“Mr. Chapman is still one of the few people loyal to me,” Lauren said, watching Marcus leave. That’s exactly why Michael is targeting him so aggressively.”

“Ms. Rhodes, you want to help Mr. Chapman, don’t you?” Andrew asked thoughtfully.
Lauren managed a smile. “Of course! Mr. Chapman isn’t just my subordinate, he’s my mentor. He taught me so much when I first joined the company.”
Andrew nodded. “Don’t worry. Once we resolve the 60 million, we’ll look into Mr. Chapman’s troubles and see what we can do.”
