Now, thinking back, Grace’s reaction that day did seem quite suspicious.

Brian discussed some cooperation matters with Marshall downstairs and then returned to the company shortly. Before leaving, he sent a text message to Louise.

At the Francis Group.

Brian had just sat down when he received a call from Melvin.

“Mr. Brian, Miss Sherman had a good appetite today. She finished all the soup that was prepared for her.”

Brian responded with a faint “Hmm” and then asked, “How are her feet?”

Brian furrowed his brow slightly, saying, “Got it,” and then hung up the phone.

He browsed through the orders he placed on his phone yesterday, and with his slender fingers, he tapped on the review section. He left a negative review without any accompanying comments.

At around 4:30 in the afternoon, his phone suddenly received a call from the merchant.

“Hello, Mr. Brian, this is Seven Star Pharmacy. We noticed that you gave us a negative review. May I inquire about the reason for your dissatisfaction?”

Brian paused with his fingers on the mouse, then leaned back in his chair and coolly said, “Your medication is completely ineffective!”

They went on to request him to consider removing the

review.

Brian responded sarcastically, “If you still want to run a pharmacy, stop bothering with phone calls!”
