Chapter 649 Hello , Mr.

Brunner .

This is Michael Rhodes .

I wanted to ask you about something , Michael said , forcing a polite tone as the call connected .

Stephens voice came across as indifferent .

Oh , its you , Mr.

Rhodes .

Im busy , so just get to the point .

Michael hesitated , then asked , Well , I heard your Glorlous Pharmaceuticals is working with Andrew Lloyd .

Is that true ? Stephen responded nonchalantly , Of course its true .

Im in the middle of overseeing several factories rushing production for Mr.

Lloyd as we speak .noveldrama

Now , unless you have something important , dont waste my time .

Michaels jaw dropped in shock .

Youre not joking , right ? houre actually producing for Andrew ? Stephen sighed impatiently .

Michael , do I sound like Im joking ? I told you Im busy making sure things get done for Mr.

Lloyd .

I dont have time for your nonsense .

Wait a second- Michael stammered , his voice rising with anger .

What the hell is this ? Mrs.

Rhodes personally reached out to you before , and you gave her excuse after excuse ! But now youre bending over backward for Andrew ? Are you saying Mrs.

Rhodes isnt as important as him ? Stephen chuckled coldly .

Oh , trying to intimidate me with Mrs.

Rhodes now ? Well , you can tell her this : at Glorious Pharmaceuticals , we believe the biggest force in the world is Mr.

Lloyd .

Michaels face turned red with fury .

Stephen , do you even realize what youre saying ? Youd better show some respect .

Stephen sneered .

Respect ? Glorious Pharmaceuticals is my company .

I built it with real hard work and skill .

You think Im afraid of Mrs.

Rhodes ? Whats she going to do eat me alive ? Im only calling you Mr.

Rhodes out of politeness , but lets be real youre nothing but a useless rich kid living off your familys reputation .

You dont deserve my respect , Stephen spat , then slamming the phone with a loud click .

Michael stood frozen , his face twisted with rage .

That bastard ! Hes asking for death ! he snarled , his hand trembling as he gripped the phone .

He could not understand why Stephen was bowing to Andrew like a loyal dog .

How could Stephen , a man who Ignored Rhodes Corporations power and Tianas influence , choose Andrew over them ? Aunt Tiana , I recommend that Rhodes Corporation officially cut all ties with Glorious Pharmaceuticals , Michael fumed .

His anger showed no signs of cooling .

Tiana was silent for a moment , then muttered coldly , Idiot Michael looked stunned .

Youre scolding me ? You should be scolding Stephen and Andrew ! Tianas voice turned icy.

I am scolding you .

Stephen controls Glorious Pharmaceuticals , the largest pharmaceutical company in Jayrodale .

Cutting ties with them ? What happens if our Pharmaceutical Division needs its resources later ? How do you plan to handle that ? Youre letting your bruised ego dictate your actions .

Acting impulsively without considering the consequences- thats exactly why you keep failing to meet my expectations , she added sharply .
