Chapter 260

Jasmine strode forward, her heels clicking like gunshots across the polished marble floor, eyes blazing with barely restrained Stury as she confronted Henty Dupont.

"Careful, Henry," she warned, her voice icy but edged with fire.

"Accusations without proof could burn you alive."

Henry threw his head back and laughed bitterly, the sound cutting through the murmurs of anticipation like a razor blade.

"Oh, isn't she priceless?" He swung around to face the crowd, his voice rising sharply, deliberately loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.

"Do you all hear this nonsense? Last month, Kingston Platinaceucal's chief of medical research and his elite team lost all faith in Jasmine Kingston's sham leadership and abandoned ship. Who could blame them?"

"Those brilliant minds took the SkinDew patent-legally theirs-and fled to Kane Pharmaceutical."

"They perfected Skin Dew there, away from Jasmine's incompetence!" Henry sneered dramatically, relishing every scathing word.

He jabbed an accusing finger toward Alex, his voice dripping contempt.

"And Kingston? They replaced true talent with some nobody named Alex, a pathetic pretender without credentials or even a respectable diploma. A joke of a leader!"

A wave of uneasy laughter rippled through the audience, eyes swiveling sharply toward Alex and Jessica Kingston, suspicion crackling palpably in the tense air.

From the sidelines, Alex finally spoke, his voice firm and steady, quiet but charged with undeniable authority.

"SkinDew has nothing-nothing-in common with Emerald Elixir."

Henry barked a scornful laugh, eyes narrowing venomously. "And you expect us to believe you invented a new medicine in one short month without raiding SkinDew's research? Do you think we're all fools here?"

Alex stepped forward confidently, voice cutting through the hostile whispers. "I've seen SkinDew's data in Kingston's archives. I wouldn't touch that poison, let alone counterfeit it."

Henry's eyes flared with outrage. "And just who are you to call Skin Dew dangerous? Admit your theft!"

Alex raised his voice with chilling calm, stepping deliberately into the spotlight.

"I'm the chief of Kingston Pharmaceutical, and I can prove SkinDew's danger to everyone here-right now."

He looked into the eager crowd. "Anyone got a SkinDew Essence handy?"
