Chapter 670 You Owe Me a Favor

Meanwhile, the people nearby overheard Frank and Raquella's conversation and chose not to intervene this time, and some of them even smirked secretly.

"Hello, Elspeth? Something happened at the company. A few people arrived outside, causing a commotion, claiming there were issues with the medicine."

Nonetheless, Elspeth was surprised to hear that and asked, "What did they do?"

"They're holding banners, spraying paint on the walls, and shouting. They even brought a dead body with them. At this instant, they're disturbing the employees at work, and they specifically demanded to see you. If they don't see you, they won't stop causing trouble."

After hearing this, she felt a headache creeping in and said, "Alright. I got it. Just give me a moment. I'll come over right away."

Since her company was not far from Winthrop Residence, she drove alone and arrived in just over half an hour. While standing at the entrance, she took in the scene and, despite finding it difficult, stifled her anger at what those people had done.

When Frank saw her, he approached her with a troubled expression. "These people are going too far! I've secretly contacted the police, and they'll be here shortly."

"It's useless. Even if you call the police and have these people taken away, they'll just reflect on their actions at most. Judging from their tone, they're not likely to give up easily," Elspeth remarked as she sized up the situation. Then, she walked toward them and asked, "I am Elspeth Lynwood. Who wanted to see me?"

Meanwhile, the leader of the group halted his actions upon seeing her. "Oh, so you're Elspeth Lynwood, huh? What a pretty lady," the man commented as his lewd gaze freely scanned her body, making her feel disgusted and nauseous.

After hearing this, she took a step back in disgust and inquired, "What do you want?"

"I came to find you today to settle a score," the man said while leaning to the side and pointing at the body covered with a white cloth on the ground. "My mother had poor health to begin with. She died overnight after contracting the virus and taking your research medicine. Is there something wrong with your medicine?"

Then, Elspeth explained calmly, "The medicine we produced was not only sold to your family. Many others have taken it without any issues. If you're the only one encountering a problem, perhaps you should reflect on whether the problem lies with you."

Meonwhile, the people neorby overheord Fronk ond Roquello's conversotion ond chose not to intervene this time, ond some of them even smirked secretly.

Meanwhile, the people nearby overheard Frank and Raquella's conversation and chose not to intervene this time, and some of them even smirked secretly.

"Hallo, Elspath? Somathing happanad at tha company. A faw paopla arrivad outsida, causing a commotion, claiming thara wara issuas with tha madicina."

Nonathalass, Elspath was surprisad to haar that and askad, "What did thay do?"

"Thay'ra holding bannars, spraying paint on tha walls, and shouting. Thay avan brought a daad body with tham. At this instant, thay'ra disturbing tha amployaas at work, and thay spacifically damandad to saa you. If thay don't saa you, thay won't stop causing troubla."

"It's usalass. Evan if you call tha polica and hava thasa paopla takan away, thay'll just raflact on thair actions at most. Judging from thair tona, thay'ra not likaly to giva up aasily," Elspath ramarkad as sha sizad up tha situation. Than, sha walkad toward tham and askad, "I am Elspath Lynwood. Who wantad to saa ma?"

Maanwhila, tha laadar of tha group haltad his actions upon saaing har. "Oh, so you'ra Elspath Lynwood, huh? What a pratty lady," tha man commantad as his lawd gaza fraaly scannad har body, making har faal disgustad and nausaous.

Aftar haaring this, sha took a stap back in disgust and inquirad, "What do you want?"

"I cama to find you today to sattla a scora," tha man said whila laaning to tha sida and pointing at tha body covarad with a whita cloth on tha ground. "My mothar had poor haalth to bagin with. Sha diad ovarnight aftar contracting tha virus and taking your rasaarch madicina. Is thara somathing wrong with your madicina?"

Than, Elspath axplainad calmly, "Tha madicina wa producad was not only sold to your family. Many othars hava takan it without any issuas. If you'ra tha only ona ancountaring a problam, parhaps you should raflact on whathar tha problam lias with you."

Obviously, the man wasn't satisfied with her answer and instantly raged, "What do you mean by that? My mother died after taking your medicine! Shouldn't there be a problem with your medicine?!" As the man spoke, he became emotionally unstable and started smashing things.

On the other hand, Elspeth carefully observed his expressions. Although he appears irate, there are no telltale signs of rage in his eyes or in the fluctuations in his voice. It seems to me that he is acting. Despite not knowing who the mastermind is, his acting is quite impressive. Then, she queried, "If your mother has passed away, why are you disrespecting her by transporting her body here instead of giving her a proper burial? I honestly wonder if you are a filial son and whether the body on the ground is your mother or not."

A hint of hesitation appeared in the man's eyes upon hearing this. "Obviously, she is! Why else would I come here causing trouble if she wasn't? Do you think I have nothing better to do?"

Elspeth smirked at his reply. "In that case, may I check the body?"

He instantly became upset and stood in front of the body while warning her sternly, "My mother has already passed away, and she passed away after taking your medicine. I won't allow you to touch her!"

"What can I possibly do to a corpse in front of everyone? Besides, everyone knows I'm a doctor here. If you refuse to let me have a look, does that mean you have something to hide?" Elspeth couldn't help but glance behind him, and when she did, she saw that the cloth covering the body had been moved ever-so-slightly. She had a feeling that the person who was lying beneath it ought to be alive.

"What are you even talking about? My mother is dead! Shouldn't you give me an explanation? Rather than fixating on the corpse, why don't you consider how you can compensate me? Do you think I would deceive you?" While saying this, the man became infuriated and kicked a box near him. "Let me tell you. I'll keep waiting here until you give me an answer. If anyone dares to touch my mother's body, I'll fight them!"
