At that moment, in another luxurious office at Ackermann Pharmaceutical, the eldest of the Ackermann brothers and CEO of the pharmaceutical company, Abel, was entertaining an important guest.

It was Cillian, the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce bigshot, who had just been beaten up by Andrew and released from the hospital.

"So I'll have to trouble you with this, Abel! Don't give Supreme Capital Group a single cent of their money! I want that to be completely stuck in the mud in Blumedale, to know what it means to be unable to survive here!"

Cillian's face was still wrapped in bandages, but that did not stop his vicious expression from showing through.

Abel wore a custom-tailored vest made by an overseas master craftsman and held a wine glass, gently swirling it. He exuded the aura of a sophisticated urban elite and a successful young entrepreneur.

He laughed and replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Ulrich. He won't get back a single penny from our Ackermann Pharmaceutical! In fact, if he dares to be ignorant, I don't mind letting him suffer a bit here."

Cillian tapped his cane heavily on the ground. "Last time I was careless and let that little bastard humiliate me! But this time, I'll make him understand that when I want to punish him, his so-called chairman title is worth nothing!"

Abel took a sip of wine and smiled. "Mr. Ulrich, you have a close relationship with the Azure Dragon King! Logically speaking, dealing with this guy should be a piece of cake! How did you end up getting hurt like this by him?"

Cillian waved his hand with a dejected expression. "Don't mention that! I was careless at the time and didn't expect the little beast to fight dirty! Well then, I'll be going now! Not only will your Ackermann Pharmaceutical handle this, but I'll also use my connections with the government and banks!"

He scoffed and added, "That little bastard won't get back a single penny! A Chamber of Commerce chairman without capital is like a toothless dog-everyone will attack him, and he won't survive long!"

Abel set down his wine glass and adjusted his immaculate tie. "Alright, I won't see you out then, Mr. Ulrich! Don't worry. He won't get a single cent from our company! The trap has been laid, and we're just waiting for him to jump in!"
