"Anyway, | was shocked that Aidan Lovelace would show up alone and behave in such a nasty manner," Jasper remarked.

"If they succeed, Lovelace Pharmaceuticals will dominate the market globally. The wealth they'll accumulate is unimaginable.” "That explains their attitude. They might start looking down not only on the Taylors but on all the esteemed families combined," Jasper remarked, shaking his head.
