My Sweetheart

Chapter 182 Doubting My Ability

Two days later, a formal statement was issued from the Food and Drug Administration. MT Medicine had passed the verification half a year ago, and the drug was completely legit.

NCHV Medical Company held a conference in City N, announcing the entire process of the drug from research and development to releasing to the market. It was absolutely rigorous and formal, unlike the counterfeit medicines circulating in the market.

Currently, the police had been investigating the source of the malicious online dissemination of this drug, coupled with the evidence provided by NCHV Medical Company. It finally led them to a newspaper company.

The person in charge said he knew nothing about it, and had never spread any news about the fake drug at all.

BT Group.

Billy looked at the online report, his thin lips curled out with a sneering smile.

"Mr Hilton, do you think it's necessary to continue working with NCHV Medical Company?" Peter couldn't figure out Billy's mind.

"The contract had been signed, and Mr Champs wants us to terminate the contract with the BT Group?" Billy narrowed his eyes.

"Of course not, I'm afraid that this medicine's reputation is already bad and it will affect sales." Peter frowned.

Being in a high position, he had a lot of details to consider.

"That's the problem you have to deal with, do you still want me to teach you?" Billy glared.

Peter nodded his head and didn't dare to say anything else instantly.

Leaving the office, Herbert waited outside and frowned when she saw Peter.

"What's the wind that blew future Mrs Hilton here today." Billy inhaled his cigarette, a few dark smiles in his eyes.

"NCHV Medical Company has already found out about YU Newspaper, aren't you worried that they will find out about me?" Herbert was a little worried.

She was the one who used YU Newspaper to spread the news about the fake medicine. But back then, Billy promised to protect her.

However, this matter was somehow a secret.

But now Billy seemed indifferent.

"Doubt my abilities?" Billy pressed closer, and his slender fingertips suddenly lifted Herbert's chin.

All of a sudden, the distance between the two was extremely close.

Herbert frowned. She did not trust Billy fully. But now, she had to rely on him.

"Don't dare to." She whispered, but her brow was always furrowed.

Billy hooked his thin lips, his fingertips going all the way down and finally stopping at Herbert's neck.

With a pause in his eyes, he coolly said, "You're still my fiancée after all, make sure your private life is cleaner, eh?"

Herbert shivered, staring at his intimidating gaze. She thought that she had kissing marks on her neck panic surfaced under her eyes.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She pushed him away.

Billy stared at her, "You're not Mrs Hilton yet, I have the right to return the goods."

Herbert's face was pale. She knew that Billy could do what he said.

Into the bathroom, Herbert stood in front of the mirror but did not see any kissing marks. Billy... lied to her?

Thinking about that cold look in his eyes, had he found something?

At that moment, the phone rang, it was an incoming call from Peter.

Herbert frowned and hung up directly.

Having just left BT Group, she didn't expect that a familiar figure at the door was apparently waiting for her.

"Herbert, let's talk?" Kathy was dressed in a pure black dress with light makeup on her face, adding a bit of gentle elegance and charm.

Herbert paused and ignored Kathy, "We have nothing to talk about."

"Is this a guilty conscience, Miss Herbert?" Kathy narrowed her eyes, and her temperament was quite intimidating. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Herbert took a deep breath, looped her arms, and said coldly, "What do I need to feel guilty about? Let’s go to the cafe across the street."

The two of them settled down, Herbert grabbed the coffee, her mood always very gloomy.

Kathy looked at her, her voice was warm, "Why are you doing this?"

"What did I do?" Herbert snorted coldly.

Kathy directly handed over an investigation document. According to this evidence that the police had just found out about YU Newspaper, Joseph had already tracked the person behind it, Herbert.

If this evidence was handed over to the police, Herbert would most likely be sentenced.

She shredded this document almost immediately and said in an angry voice, "Kathy, don't slander me. You think that finding a fake investigation document will convict me? You're too naive."

"If I am slandering you, what are you panicking about, Miss Herbert?" Kathy smiled indifferently.

"I'm in a bad mood today, that's all," Herbert said, putting down her coffee and leaving.

Kathy looked at her back and said in a deep voice, "Then I'll give this document to the police to see if it's real or not."

Herbert paused, clenched and unclenched her fists, then finally snapped back a long while later.

"What exactly do you want?" Herbert stared at her with gritted teeth.

Kathy laughed out lightly as she never thought that she could have the chance to threaten Herbert.

"Five years ago, my graduation thesis was reported for plagiarism, does it have anything to do with you?" Kathy looked into Herbert's eyes immediately.

She pursed her lips, having calmed down at the moment.

Obviously, Kathy had come prepared.

"It doesn't matter," Herbert replied.

"Does it have anything to do with Peter?" Kathy asked.

Herbert looked at her and shook her head, her tone slightly cold, "I don't know, at that time late Peter was still with you, shouldn't you know better?"

"If you really didn't plagiarize, how would the school convict you, Kathy. Don't fool yourself." Herbert coldly said.

Kathy dropped her eyes and bit her lips tightly.

She had typed her thesis word by word on the computer. Unless it was switched, she wouldn't be suspected for plagiarism.

"Since you won't tell the truth, then I'll have to hand over this document to the police." Kathy faintly said.

Upon hearing that, the fear in Herbert's eyes gradually surfaced, and her body trembled slightly as she growled, "Kathy, I really don't know anything!"

It was just that the look on Kathy's face clearly showed disbelief.

"I advise you, don't look into it. Otherwise, you'll only set yourself on fire!" Herbert stated and added, "Even if you give the police the documents, I'll still give this answer, I don't know anything!"

After Herbert left, Kathy sat alone in the café. The coffee in her cup had long gone cold before she came back to her senses.

Just about to leave, a long figure sat down across from her.

Billy wore a white shirt with trousers, he appeared gentle and elegant.

Kathy ignored him and went directly to settle the bills.

But Billy called out to her, "Aren't you going to catch up after seeing a friend?"

"We're not friends," Kathy said in a faint voice.

"Tsk, is it Joseph doesn't allow you to be friends with me?"

Kathy frowned, "Aren't your fiancée mad that you want to be friends with me?"

"Since this is a normal friendship, what does she have to be angry about." Billy grinned.

"You just sit there, I should go." Kathy did not stay.

Billy gradually sank his face. His gaze fell on Kathy's slim and slender back. The burning heat under his eyes was gradually surfacing, but he suppressed it.
