CHAPTER 723 NATHAN AND PENNY VISIT NORTHANIA
Penny woke up to find herself surrounded by the white walls of a hospital ward.Têxt belongs to .
The doctor and nurses were talking to Nathan at the side. Noticing that Penny had come to, the doctor gestured in her direction. "Your wife is awake. There's nothing you need to worry about. She can be discharged soon."
With that said, the medical team left. Feeling disoriented, Penny hurriedly asked Nathan about her current situation.
Nathan gave her a gentle smile to soothe her. "Nothing's wrong. You fainted while we were having dinner, and | was so shocked that | rushed you to the hospital. The doctor said it is likely because you've been overworking yourself, so you'll just need to take a rest and recuperate."
Penny was rather bewildered upon hearing this. Gullible as she was, she bought Nathan's story and murmured somewhat frightfully, "Seems like | really have to rest more or else my body wouldn't be able to take it!"
In spite of her resolve to pay more attention to her health, this issue was put on the backburner after two mere days. Penny buried herself in work for the next few days.
As per her promise to the chairman, she planned to personally visit Northania to survey the market and find a herbal medicine company that would make a suitable business partner.
On the third day, Penny boarded the flight to Cledondale with Nathan, Kylie, and a few Cross Group executives in tow. The group had booked the entire business class compartment.
Penny made use of every second and discussed work with Jenny throughout the flight.
"Jenny, have you arranged our schedules for this business trip?" Penny inquired.
Her secretary passed her a schedule and chirped, "President Smith, I've prepared it ages ago! Our first stop is Cledondale, a city in Northania. I've also set up a meeting with the Lane Family so that you can establish a business relationship.”
Penny nodded with satisfaction. "The Lane Family has a high status in Northania, so there's no doubt that they have wide connections. Besides, the Lane Family has always dabbled in the production and sales of pharmaceuticals. If we manage to get a partnership with the Lane Family, our company's liver cancer vaccine will be a shoo-in to monopolize the market.”
Kylie could not suppress her curiosity and piped up, "Penny, why must we look for a business partner? Can't we rely on our own abilities to enter the Northania market?"
Penny smiled wryly. "You're being too naive."
"The business world is like a battlefield -Each market is dominated by a person or group of influence. If we, as people from Southania, wish to set up a business in the North, we would be sidelined by the existing tycoons, or worse, oppressed.”
"Hence, finding a capable local mogul and forming a partnership would be our best bet. Once we find our place in the Northern market, it'll be a crack in the dam, and it'll only be a matter of time before we start to bring in a generous amount of income."
Kylie shook her head in resignation after hearing Penny's lengthy explanation. "Business is too complicated for me. | still prefer research and development or quality control. These fields are much easier," She said cheekily.
Penny had mixed feelings about Kylie's comment, but she heaved a deep sigh instead of responding. "| hope the meeting with the Lane Family will go smoothly."
Nathan eavesdropped on their conversation from the side but remained silent as he did not want to be the bearer of bad news. He was certain that Cross Group would run into trouble during this meeting with the Lane Family. After all, he had offed Jonathan Lane, a Lane Family member, just two days ago.
In Cledondale, at the Cross family home.
Madam Helen stared at Francis, wide-eyed and flabbergasted. "Nathan and Penny are in Northania? And in Cledondale, at that?"
Francis nodded in affirmation. "Yes, that's right!"
Anxiety roiled within Madam Helen. "Do you think the re peying terenien tespesrexarehhy name and fight for the inheritance?" Please read the original content at .
Francis shook his head. "It does not seem that way. According to my sources, Penny is tiyiag & eg plat} armyerkeniindvortfania for Cross Group's liver cancer vaccine.

Madam Helen instantly smirked. "Francis, didn’t we lose track of Jonathan Lane ever since he went to Channing?" "Spread the word that Jonathan is dead and that Nathan Cross was the one who murdered him." Francis's eyes lit up at the sound of this
plan. "Madam, this tactic is marvelous! The Lane Family is known for getting eve any edBerernies. If thayrtanly believe Nathan is the murderer, there's no way he and Penny will leave Cledondale alive." Please read the original content at .
