Chapter 955


    Thea realized that Celestial, Longevity, and otherrge groups'' deration about leaving the industry


    caused a series of chain reactions that in turn affected the Cahans’pany, Eternality.


    Thea and James did not linger a second longer and left posthaste.


    Soon, they arrived at Cahans’ vi.It was early in the morning, but almost all Cahans’ family


    members were gathered in the vi.


    The air was thick with worry and uncertainty.


    Thea and James hurriedly walked over to them.


    The Cahans quickly grasped at their lifeline.


    "Thea, you''re finally back!"


    "Thea, the Cahans need you to take charge and save us from this situation."


    The Cahans stepped forward and began bombarding Thea with their desperate pleas and demands.


    Meanwhile, James waspletely ignored.


    Thea asked, "Grandpa, is it true that Celestial, Longevity, and other major groups have announced their


    withdrawal from Cansington and the pharmaceutical industry? Did you call me me because the


    Cahans were affected by this sudden shake-up?"


    "There’s more to it."


    Lex sighed despondently.


    "You should sit down first."


    Thea walked over and sat down.


    James followed along and also tried to find somewhere to sit.


    Unfortunately, there was no avable space on the sofa.


    Thea looked at Megan and hissed demandingly.


    "Make space for James."


    "Why should I…?"


    Megan parted her lips to refuse Thea’s demand but noticed Lex’s displeased expression.She quickly


    stood up and nced at James beside her.


    Gesturing at the seat, she said with gritted teeth, "For you."


    James quickly sat down.


    Lex finally started exining the situation, "I don’t know what kind of methods the Centennial


    Corporation employed, but they managed to persuade major pharmaceutical corporations in


    Cansington to sell theirpanies so that they can merge with Centennial.At the same time, the


    families of these corporations have announced their permanent withdrawal from the pharmaceutical


    industry."


    "They bought over all thesepanies in just one night?"


    James was taken aback by the news.


    These were leading corporations in the pharmaceutical industry.It would take an astronomical figure to


    acquire all of them.


    "That’s right." Lex heaved heavily.


    "Representatives from Centennial Corporation showed up at our vi this morning and gave us two


    options.We either disband Eternality, withdraw from the pharmaceutical industry and receive


    compensation of one million dors, or continue operations under Centennial Corporation''s continuous


    and relentless interference." Several major corporations had already been dissolved by their former


    chairpersons and acquired by Centennial Corporation.


    However, this was not the main concern of the Cahans.


    The Cahans were panicking over the fact that Centennial Corporation requested them to simply


    dissolve theirpany.

    They had already invested too much money into thepany to simplyply with such a ludicrous


    demand.


    It had only been less than a month since they startedrge-scale development and began medicinal


    research.


    More than one billion dors had been invested throughout this period.


    Yet, Centennial only offered one million aspensation for dissolving Eternality.


    "What should we do, Thea?"


    Lex looked at Thea worriedly.


    "Centennial Corporation is a gigantic group that has developed rapidly in the mere span of a


    month.Now that it has acquired Celestial, Longevity, Purity, Abundant, and other major corporations,


    they’ve all butpletely monopolized the pharmaceutical industry.A small business like us won''t be


    able to retaliate against them."


    Thea’s expression was grim.Her lips were pulled into a thin line.She looked at James sitting beside her


    and turned to him.


    "Honey, is there anything we can do?"


    James shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "Why are you asking me? The Cahans’


    problems aren’t mine to worry over.You should solve it yourself."


    He pretended to be calm.


    However, there was a violent storm raging in his heart.


    James knew Centennial Corporation''s origin.It was established by the Emperor but never ceased


    operations even after his death.


    Now, thepany has begun developing at a tremendous speed.


    This suggested that someone had taken over the Emperor’s job and was making big moves.


    Messiah Corporation is bound to face a simr crisis in due time.


    Having acquired several majorpanies, Centennial Corporation now stood atop the pharmaceutical


    industry.


    Messiah Corporation did not have a snowball’s chance in hell against them.


    What perplexed James and drew his attention was why the mastermind hiding behind the scenes


    wanted to dominate the pharmaceutical industry so badly.


    He doubted Centennial Corporation’s goal was to research medicines that could greatly benefit the


    world.


    The only thing he was certain about was this definitely had something to do with the failed n a


    hundred years ago.


    However, James was unsure of the details of what happened back then and had to seek out someone


    who knew the truth to find out more.


    The whole family’s eyes were glued on Thea as they held their breath and waited for her to make a


    decision.


    Thea had been to Messiah Corporation before and knew about Centennial Corporation’s purpose for


    existing.


    Judging by their current actions, Thea could tell they were speeding up their n.She stood firmly on


    James’ side.


    If James’ Messiah Corporation was not going to give in, then neither would she.
