Miracle Doctor Daddy

Chapter 102 Joy Turns to Sorrow



It was said that one should not bite the hand that feeds them, so Monty was polite and Lachlan chatted with him for a few minutes. After exchanging pleasantries, Monty greeted Miranda and went inside.

At this moment, Miranda looked surprised and asked, “How do you know Monty?”

“You should know him too. Last time I saw that his merchandise was all junk. If he really sold it to Anton, wouldn’t Anton hate him? How could they continue to work together? His reputation would be ruined.”

“Working with him again? His reputation’s gone?”

“So he was very grateful to me.”

Lachlan shrugged his shoulders and lied without batting an eye.

“Oh, I see,” Miranda nodded skeptically but didn’t ask any further questions.

When they arrived at the reserved private room they had booked earlier, their faces sank as soon as they saw who was already there – Romeo’s family.

Emmanuel and Cara were sitting there with angry expressions on their faces.

“Auntie, this is my birthday gift for you!” Harlow sneered as she took out a music box. When she pressed the switch on it, the song “Be curtains” started playing loudly.

“I personally recorded this song for you! Wishing you many happy returns of your special day! Hahaha…”

Eliza then boasted even more arrogantly, “Oh by the way… I forgot to tell you guys… we made another 50 million three days ago! Romeo now owns 40% of the pharmaceutical company which means our family just made 20 million dollars in one go!”

“But that’s nothing compared to what we’ll make in future,” Eliza turned around and looked at Lachlan and Miranda who had just walked in with an even more smug expression on her face. “Hey look everyone! Our eldest niece and son-in-law are here too! We have to thank both of them or else how could we have earned so much money?”

Seeing how proud Romeo’s family looked like made Emmanuel and Cara tremble with anger while Miranda blushed furiously wishing she could scratch her nails into her flesh.

“Romeo… do you really need to stoop so low?” Emmanuel questioned angrily. “We’re brothers after all; blood is thicker than water.”

“Emmanuel, your sister-in-law, and your niece are here to celebrate Cara’s birthday. What’s wrong? You guys don’t seem happy?” Romeo asked with a fake smile on his face and an innocent look in his eyes.

“You… are you really here to celebrate my birthday? It’s obvious that you’re just trying to mess with us!” Cara said angrily.

Pointing at the door of the private room, she continued, “Get out of here! We don’t welcome you!”

“I mean Cara, do you have the attitude of a sister-in-law? We came here with good intentions to celebrate your birthday. How could you chase us away?” Eliza said sarcastically.

“Mom, it’s because our family is doing well now that they’re jealous. Understandably so since they were just kicked out of the Lowe family. The new drug they developed is now being sold by us. Some people had worked hard before to unfreeze company accounts but only did it for us.” Harlow gloated.

“You must be so angry right now! Hahaha…”

At this point, Lachlan spoke up in a cold tone and extended three fingers towards them, “My mother-in-law told you guys to leave! I’m giving you three seconds!”

This family was acting foolishly and even Lachlan was getting annoyed by their behavior. His eyes showed a hint of fierceness as he exuded an intimidating aura towards Romeo’s family.

People who had killed before carried an air about them that can be felt immediately!

In an instant, Romeo’s family felt like they were plunged into icy water.

“Just leave if we want to go! What’s so great about it? Do you dare hit us?” Eliza said fearfully but also mockingly since she knew Lachlan wouldn’t actually hurt them.

Harlow rolled her eyes, “Some people just can’t stand seeing others doing well for themselves! Let’s go…”

Romeo let out a cold snort and intended to leave the private room. Despite being briefly scared by Lachlan earlier, their goal for today had been achieved. They had boldly shown off in front of Emmanuel, infuriating him.

However, at that moment, Romeo’s phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that it was a call from Felix Gray, the company’s procurement manager for raw materials.

Romeo pretended not wanting to leave yet and intentionally answered the phone using speakerphone mode while still inside the private room,

“What happened?” He asked stylishly.

Today, Romeo’s goal was to show off in front of Miranda and her family. When his subordinate called from the company, he deliberately let them hear the report.

“Mr. Lowe, we have a big problem! We’re out of raw materials!” However, when he answered the phone, it was Felix’s urgent voice.

“Just go buy more! Do I have to tell you that?” Romeo said impatiently. Then he smirked at Miranda’s family and Lachlan. “There’s nothing we can do about it. Business is booming right now and production is moving too fast. We run out of raw materials every other day. Can you believe it?”

Emmanuel, Cara and Miranda were all seething with anger when they heard this.

“Get out! Why are you still here?” Cara shouted furiously.

Only Lachlan’s eyes flickered as he sensed that something wasn’t quite right about this situation. He discreetly closed the door to their private room instead.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

“It’s not just one supplier who can’t provide us with raw materials,” Felix said with a bitter smile. “All our suppliers are saying they don’t have any.”

“What? What did you say?” Romeo’s face suddenly changed and his voice unconsciously rose a few decibels. Eliza and Harlow also looked uneasy as they exchanged glances.

But Emmanuel, Cara, and Miranda suddenly brightened up as they looked at each other knowingly.

“If one supplier doesn’t work out, then go find another one!” Romeo scolded irritably. “Damn it! We work with more than one supplier for our raw materials. What do I need to teach you?”

“It’s not just one or two suppliers Mr. Lowe. All our suppliers are refusing to supply us,” Felix explained helplessly.

“How could that be possible? Tell them we’ve already signed contracts. If they cut off supplies on us then we’ll sue them for breach of contract. Let them pay up!” Romeo fumed angrily.

“I threatened them like that too, but these material suppliers told me that they don’t have any goods on hand. They also said even if we sued them, it wouldn’t be easy for us to win. And I feel like even if they had to pay compensation fees, they still won’t supply goods for us!” Felix replied dejectedly.

“Mr. Lowe, why don’t you personally contact these people? See where the problem lies?” Felix said helplessly.

“What? What are these bastards up to? And what about Albie? What’s his attitude?” Romeo’s face completely changed, and he finally became a little panicked.

He still held onto a glimmer of hope that Albie would continue to supply them. As the largest herbal medicine wholesaler in Kreanford, as long as Albie didn’t cause any trouble, there shouldn’t be any problems!

“Mr. Elliott’s attitude is even more resolute. He gave me two words: ‘no way’!” As soon as he finished speaking, Romeo’s body trembled and his face was full of panic and anger.

“Bastards! Bastards! What are they doing?”

At this moment, Cara showed the first hint of laughter on her face today and couldn’t help but gloat, “What happened? Is there a problem with the company?”

Miranda also chuckled teasingly and asked in a mocking tone, “Uncle, did those herbal medicine merchants cut off your supply? Did you come here today just so we could see you make a fool of yourself?”
