Chapter 624: Chapter 623: No Suffering Losses

South Grant smiled, then walked to Professor Tate’s bedside, set down the fruit basket he brought, and peeled an orange to hand to Professor Tate.

Professor Tate didn’t take it, and South Grant didn’t mind, placing it to the side. Then he took out his phone, showing Professor Tate a text message.

The message stated that The Ellison Group’s skincare products indeed tested positive for carcinogens, but the relevant authorities had yet to release the information.

Professor Tate was furious after reading it.

South Grant opened his email and continued, "Professor, don’t worry. When this happened, I didn’t know what the problem was either. We were clearly using the best materials, so how could there be carcinogens? It wasn’t until I saw this video that I realized where the problem was."

Professor Tate looked at South Grant’s phone, where a video was playing.

A woman ushered the workers out of the workshop and then furtively added something to the products, clearly up to no good.

"This person’s name is Kevin Hayes, the deputy manager of our R&D department. She added substandard carcinogens to these products, and the batch that was tested just happened to be the tainted ones. As for whether the products on the market have issues, I’m not sure yet."

Professor Tate widened his eyes at the phone, and South Grant continued:

"Kevin Hayes is Fiona Grant’s senior, brought into the company by Fiona Grant. She’s acting on Fiona Grant’s behalf. Now they’re poisoning the products, and then Fiona Grant sold The Ellison Group’s stocks as startup capital to create a new company. All of this was planned by them."

Professor Tate raised his head to look at South Grant, "The battles among you business magnates are utterly unscrupulous, without a thought for how these products entering the market would impact people."

Seeing Professor Tate still held a grudge against him, South Grant explained, "We only know about this because we found someone internally. Now, the officials have confirmed the issue but haven’t exposed it because they’re waiting. Do you know what they’re waiting for, Professor?"

Professor Tate looked at South Grant, not quite understanding what they were saying.

At this moment, South Grant said, "If The Ellison Group is willing to spend the money, this issue wouldn’t be exposed at all. They’re waiting for The Ellison Group to send money, a lot of money. That way, the issue would just fade away. Although these things are carcinogenic, if not used frequently, they might not cause a problem. Moreover, it’s only one batch, so no major issue would arise. As long as my new products have no problems, this incident will quickly pass."

Listening to South Grant’s words, Professor Tate was so angry his mustache trembled.

At this point, South Grant chuckled and then said:

"Professor Tate, you must think I would do that, right?"

"What else?" Professor Tate replied angrily.

"I won’t spend that money, and I’ve already arranged for all the products on the market to be recalled. The news about the carcinogens will be published in at most a week."

Professor Tate was taken aback, not expecting South Grant to say such things.

"Then will the reputation of The Ellison Group be completely ruined?" Professor Tate was a bit incredulous.

"Reputation is given by consumers. If this batch enters the market, consumers will be the victims, so where would the reputation come from?"

"So, you admit defeat this time?" Professor Tate still couldn’t believe South Grant would give up on public relations for this news.

"Our company was poorly supervised, so admitting defeat is admitting defeat, but I am not one to take the blame in silence. I won’t let the instigator of this matter get away."

ps: I’m really sorry, apart from apologizing I don’t know what else to say. I’ll sort out my affairs soon. Sorry to all of you who love me, for giving you a very poor reading experience.

Good night.
