A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 41 Competition Controversy

The car had been driving for over an hour when Herman received a phone call. After listening for a few moments, his face turned pale, and he shouted, “How is that possibilell We clearly registered for it, and you even sent us the exam number. How could we not have registered?”

The person on the other end of the line said, “We’re not sure about that, but we discovered that you weren’t registered and won’t be able to participate in the exam.”

Anxiously, Herman said, “Could you please check again? Perhaps there’s been a mistake:

“It’s impossible. We wouldn’t have made a mistake like that,” the person on the phone replied before hanging up right away.

“What’s going on, Mr. Webber?” asked William.

With a wry smile. Herman answered, “I don’t know what’s happening. The organizing committee called and said we didn’t register, so we can’t participate in the exam this time.”

“What? That’s not possible. I checked the official website, and it showed that we had registered successfully. Mia said with a frown.

“I’m rather puzzled as well. We definitely registered Herman sighed. He attached great importance to this exam; if Mja achieved good results, it would reflect positively on him.

Hearing all that, Jason asked, “Boss, should we still go?”

“Of course, we should,” William replied coldly. “Mia is definitely taking this exam!”

Then, he dialed Jonathan’s number and explained the situation. Jonathan had many connections, and he was able to reply in just 10 minutes.

“I found out what happened, William. It was one of the employees in the office who modified the registration information without authorization. I’ve already made them rectify it.

“Why did the employee modify it on purpose?” asked William.

“I’ve sent someone to investigate the reason. I’ll let you know later. By the way, when you arrive at the Kreim Capital, you must come and meet me. I’ve missed you so much.”

“Sure. I’ll meet up with you, Mr., Big, replied William.

After he hung up the phone, Herman’s expression changed. Who is he, actually? How can he find out about the situation with just one phone call?

Ten minutes later, his phone rang again. The other party confirmed that they had made a mistake and that Mia had successfully registered, so she could participate in the exam. They also apologized to him

nonstop.

With that, Herman was even more shocked. He became restless after hanging up the phone.

Meanwhile, Mia was curious, “William, are you going to meet a friend?”

William answered with a mod, saying, “His name is Jonathan Big, and he’s a big shot at Kreim Capital. I
