Chapter 280: 280 Quality Issues_1
Greg Jensen smiled as he greeted and took a seat next to Louisa Burley, naturally reaching out to grasp her wrist and place it on his thigh.
Feeling his slightly rough large hand, Louisa Burley’s face immediately blushed to the roots of her ears.
She looked up a bit guiltily and took a glance at Greg Jensen, whispering, “Big brother Greg, I feel like my body is already much better.
Yesterday, I played outside for the whole afternoon and didn’t feel the slightest discomfort.”
Greg Jensen smiled and shook his head, saying, “You wouldn’t recover that quickly. The fact that there’s no outbreak right now is just superficial.
If you don’t continue with the recuperation, there is a very good chance it could come back one day.”
As he spoke, he let go of Louisa Burley’s wrist and pondered, “I’ll make some slight adjustments to the prescription later; you should continue taking it for a while.”
Hearing that she had to continue taking the medicine, Louisa Burley immediately frowned and said with a bitter face, “But… it’s too bitter.”
“Good medicine is bitter.”
Seeing her pitiful look, Greg Jensen instinctively rubbed her little head and then realized what he was doing and quickly retracted his hand.
Louisa Burley blushed even more.
Tracy Miles quickly stood up, feeling awkward, and said, “I didn’t see anything… carry on.”
Greg Jensen’s face turned red, and he quickly said, “Nonsense, carry on what? Come here, let me take your pulse.”
“Oh, thank you, big brother Greg.”
Tracy Miles, hearing this, sat back down and extended her arm.
After taking her pulse, Greg Jensen asked, “The prescription I gave you, are you still taking it?”
“Yes, I take it every day, but I’m not losing weight.”
Tracy Miles looked down at her belly with some distress and sighed, “Gaining weight was so easy, why is losing it so hard?”
Greg Jensen glanced at her and said, “Don’t eat sweets anymore.”
“How did you know I’ve been eating sweets again?”
Tracy Miles’s face turned slightly red as she laughed, “I only eat a little occasionally.”
“When I said don’t eat them, I meant not at all; otherwise, you’ll just keep gaining weight.”
“This… alright then.”
Seeing her response, Greg Jensen nodded and added, “By the way, I’ve set up a branch and will probably need to ask for help from Thunder Decoration Company.”
“No problem, you can just ask them directly. Uncle Wang knows we are friends and will definitely do a good job. I’ll give him a call later.”
“Yeah, I appreciate it.”
Tracy Miles smiled and said, “Big brother Greg, what you mentioned before, Adrian Wright and the others told me. You’re practically my matchmaker, you don’t need to be polite with me.”
At that moment, Spencer Burley also came downstairs and, seeing Greg Jensen was there, quickly ran over, “Brother Jensen, when did you get here?”
“Just arrived, I came to check on your sister’s health and talk to Tracy about the branch.”
“Oh, let’s have lunch here then. I’ll have the kitchen prepare a few good dishes, and we can celebrate.”
“Alright.”
Greg Jensen initially didn’t want to agree, but seeing the expectant look on Louisa Burley’s face, he suddenly felt reluctant to refuse.
Spencer Burley, overjoyed upon hearing this, hurried into the kitchen and instructed the auntie to prepare a few good dishes.
…
Jamae Herbs Factory.
“President Ware, when will we settle the payment with Peach Blossom Medicinal Material Base?”
“Hasn’t the payment come through yet? Once the payment arrives, make it a priority to settle with them.”
“Alright, President Ware.”
The finance staff turned to leave and thoughtfully closed the door behind them.
Taylor Ware’s brows furrowed slightly as she snorted coldly, “That lecher, he’s gone too far. After all this time, he hasn’t even bothered to visit once.”
Chestor Ware, who was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, looked up at her words and laughed, “Why? If you want Greg to come over, just give him a call.”
“I don’t miss him one bit!”
Taylor Ware blurted out, then suddenly realized what she had said and her face turned red.
Chestor Ware was also taken aback and teased, “I said you wanted Greg to come over, not that you miss him.”
“Ah, I… I can’t be bothered to talk to you about this.”
“Haha…”
Chestor Ware watched his daughter’s embarrassed demeanor and couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter.
He was well aware of his daughter’s feelings, but Greg already had a girlfriend, which left him quite troubled.
However, he was very grateful to Greg. It was because of his presence that the relationship between him and his daughter had improved.
Taylor Ware suddenly looked up again, frowning, “Dad, I heard that Mr. Greg made a scene at the Lin family’s wedding banquet. Is that true?”
Upon hearing this, Chestor Ware nodded with a grave expression, “It seems there was indeed such an incident, but I don’t know the details.”
“He’s really too daring.”
Taylor Ware was somewhat surprised; she thought Greg was being too impulsive.
The Lin family was Jamae City’s top family. Greg making a scene at a wedding was like giving the Lin family a resounding slap in the face in front of everyone.
How was that any different from seeking death?
But then she thought, a man like Greg, who dared to beard the lion in his den, seemed too domineering, full of masculinity, and she couldn’t help but be swayed by him.
She expressed her concern, “Dad, this won’t affect our business, will it?”
“Heh, without this incident, would the Lin family stop competing with us for business?” Chestor Ware shook his head and smiled.
Just then, a phone call came in.
Taylor Ware casually answered it, and after a brief conversation, her face suddenly turned pale.
“What happened?”
“The inspector from Westland Pharmaceuticals called to say that the batch of medicinal materials we’ve just delivered has quality issues.”
Chestor Ware said incredulously, “That’s impossible. I personally inspected the materials when they left the factory.
Our medicinal materials are not only problem-free but also at least thirty percent better in quality than those on the market.
The medicine made from these materials will be much more effective than before, so how could it be substandard?”
“This… I don’t know either.”
“Come on, let’s go to Westland Pharmaceuticals and have a look.”
The father-daughter duo drove off and soon arrived at Westland Pharmaceuticals.
They were led by the quality inspector into the warehouse where the medicinal materials were stored.
Before long, Marvin Simmons, the manager of the Westland Pharmaceuticals branch, also hurried over.
The quality inspector randomly opened a bag of processed medicinal materials and said, “Manager, take a look at this. These medicinal materials obviously haven’t reached maturity before they were put into the drying process.
The active ingredients extracted from these materials will definitely be much less than those of mature materials.”
Marvin Simmons frowned and said, “Chestor, the branch has just started operating and you’ve already presented me with such a big problem?”
Chestor Ware gave an embarrassed smile and said, “Don’t worry, let me first see what’s going on.”
Taylor Ware grabbed a handful of the medicinal materials and looked closely, then her expression changed, “Impossible.
From harvesting to processing in the workshop, to leaving the factory, our factory’s medicinal materials undergo strict inspections.
How could they end up like this?”
Chestor Ware also frowned but didn’t look at the materials inside the bag. Instead, he turned his attention to the woven bags containing the materials.
He carefully felt the bags and said with a frown, “Something’s not right, these medicinal materials don’t seem to be from our factory.”
