“Thank you,” I said as I took it, wiping my mouth and holding the tissue in my hand, continuing to eat breakfast.
“I would also go, let’s go together on the way.”
“I need to go back to the company first; there are a lot of things to move,” I said, only then realizing and looking at him with confusion, “I remember that the medical devices under the Barton Group were not self–developed.”
“It was Wellbio Medical Corp, their booth was at C12,” Kaleb said nonchalantly, unconsciously rubbing the crescent–shaped dent on the rim of the bowl, which I accidentally bumped into last week.“They were three booths away from you guys.”
Wellbio Medical Corp? I remembered that, in the past, the Barton Group’s investment went sour. Shortly after, Kaleb told me that Wellbio Medical Corp was a hundred percent owned by him and he wanted to continue investing in my company and collaborate with me. However, at that time, I was rejected by him. Although Kaleb held a top management position at the Barton Group, his father was still the majority shareholder.
I asked cautiously, “Do we… have any competitors?” If there were competitors, how could I, a small company, compete with him? Even if he was a newly established company, he would still be a well–funded and large–scale pharmaceutical enterprise.
“There were no competitors. You were specialized in rare disease drugs and vaccines, while we focused on topical medications and medical devices. We also conducted research on traditional medicine.”
I breathed a sigh of relief.
After breakfast. I wanted to wash the dishes, but Kaleb found my washing not clean enough and refused to let me wash. I quite liked his disdain.
The two of us went out together. The elevator went straight down to the basement parking lot. Kaleb unlocked the car, sat in the driver’s seat. I habitually sat in the back seat, pulling the seatbelt and fastening it. In the rearview mirror, Kaleb’s jawline tightened abruptly, his eyes darkened, and the car’s air freshener suddenly became suffocating.
