Who would seize the initiative? Would the other distributors dare to retaliate? These questions weighed heavily on Eric's mind.Eric knew well that rallying the Westlake distributors to the Innova Group's cause meant challenging the Pentra family head-on. Yet, the Pentra family had effectively closed off all avenues in Westlake City.For the Innova Group to expand its market presence here, it had to confront the Pentra family's dominance—a thorny dilemma.Eric pondered silently for a prolonged moment.The directive from the Combat Department was unequivocal: avoid the Pentra family if possible, but be prepared to confront them if necessary.With no clear strategy in sight, Eric sought guidance from Pierce and briefed him on the situation.Upon hearing about Westlake City, Pierce fell into silence.After a pause, he instructed, "Conduct an investigation there. If the Pentras truly control the Westlake market and leave no room for other distributors, take whatever measures are nec

This time, Sylvia was the host. Bryce, Mark, and Martha were all present.After discovering the true nature of these three individuals, Eric and Sylvia regarded them with different eyes.Bryce and Mark were both notorious for their lustful ways, and in the presence of Sylvia, they were even more shameless.Martha was no different. In her eyes, a woman's beauty was a sin, and those who climbed the social ladder using their looks were even worse sinners.If Sylvia were an ordinary person, she would have fallen victim to Martha's schemes long ago. But Sylvia was no ordinary person.Even so, in Martha's eyes, Sylvia was within her grasp. With this in mind, Martha turned her head and glanced at Eric. In her view, Eric's fate was also sealed—this man who preyed on women with his accomplishments and status was no good man.He couldn't be allowed to harm women any longer—he had to die! There were no good men left in this world!Sensing her bloodlust, Eric glanced at her, and his eyes su

It was nothing short of robbery, yet it was dressed up in refreshing attire.Seemingly, the Innova Group wasn't at a loss, but rather the Pentra family.Sylvia chuckled lightly, saying, "Mr. Pentra, what I mean is, can the Pentra family consider lowering their cut in this matter?"Did she genuinely hope for a reduction in the Pentra family's share? Not really.What business was it of the Pentra family if the Innova Group entered the Westlake market?Even if it were 80%, Sylvia wouldn't give in. Why should she? The distributors deserved payment, and the Innova Group could even provide subsidies to them.But what had the Pentra family done? Just because they controlled the Westlake distributors?However, this time, Bryce relented. "Ms. Williams, lowering the percentage isn't out of the question. How about this? I'll reduce it to 70% for you!"As long as you agree, once we sign the contract and the payment for the first batch of medicine is made, the Innova Group's medicine can st

The Pentra family thoroughly disgusted Sylvia.Once, when she first heard of aristocratic families, Sylvia imagined them to be more refined and responsible than the wealthiest households. Little did she know the Pentra family would turn out like this.What kind of nonsense aristocracy was this?They were nothing but self-centered, selfish individuals who dared to act recklessly under the guise of family strength. Such a family had no reason to exist."We've got the lowdown," remarked Eric. "There's no point in holding onto any illusions about the Pentra family. Let's focus on what we need to do."Sylvia had no illusions about the Pentras. When Bryce demanded an 80% profit share, she saw through their facade immediately.The Pentras weren't holistic physicians, nor were they in pharmaceuticals, yet they dominated the Westlake market. Any medical merchant looking to enter Westlake City would likely have to pay Pentras, or their business would suffer.-Mark had just been frolicki

Martha licked her lips. "I never imagined that Innova Group's co-founder is also a martial artist with blood on his hands!"She could tell Eric had killed before!At her words, Bryce squinted. "I almost forgot about that fellow!"Sylvia was too stunning—Bryce and Mark's eyes had always been on Sylvia, ignoring Eric.Only Martha perceived Eric's distinctiveness.The intensity of his gaze and the aura of death that surrounded him still lingered in Martha's mind.She found herself intrigued by Eric, postponing any thoughts of eliminating him too soon. She wanted to discern what set him apart from others."Sis, do you have a plan?" Mark was just a man who only cared about women.He even wanted to have sex with Martha. Still, he was aware of her fiery temperament and feared his advances might lead to his death."I have an idea," Martha replied."The Innova Group must want to meet with the Westlake distributors. Let's facilitate that by organizing a cocktail party and bringing toge

John strode with determination. Naturally, one's mood became excellent when they envisioned a bright future ahead.He still needed to reach out to other distributors, subtly gauging their opinions. Of course, he didn't need to approach everyone—just a select few of the major Westlake distributors would suffice.-Back at the hotel, Ron voiced his concern, "Mr. Johnson, all the Westlake distributors are under the Pentras' watch. If John contacts other channels, he might be discovered by them, right? Will he be in danger?"Having spent so much time in Westlake City, Ron was familiar with the situation. Given the Pentras' nature, they would likely eliminate John if they found out he was turning against them.John was akin to a seed planted by the Innova Group, yet also resembled a spark cast upon a dry grassland. The Pentras didn't want to face a scenario where all the distributors turned against them. Handling that situation was somewhat delicate!After pondering for a moment, Eric

'If we dare to lay a finger on Ruth, our family won't last a day!' This certainty resounded in Bryce's mind as he faced the situation.Sitting down, Ruth glanced at Bryce, her expression stern. "Mr. Pentra, we've received reports lately suggesting some serious issues within your family."Those words sent a chill down Bryce's spine. He knew better than anyone that the Combat Department never bothered with explanations. Once one was on their list, it would be as good as a death sentence.Bryce hurriedly said, "Ms. McClain, there must be some misunderstanding! The Pentra family has always upheld the law and order, never engaging in illicit activities."As for myself, I abhor criminal elements and would never stray down that path. And my two children, I've raised them with strict principles—they wouldn't involve themselves in unlawful deeds."Ruth nodded, then suddenly asked, "Mr. Pentra, could the recent disappearances of several female stars be related to the Pentras? Rumor has it t
Chapter 1418
Ruth's arrival made the Pentras hesitant to make any rash moves. They even refrained from hosting any gatherings, knowing that such events were directed toward Sylvia. If the Innova Group were to alert the Combat Department, the Pentras would be in serious trouble.Thus, their actions became significantly restrained.-John had made some progress.Approaching Ron, he addressed the issue at hand, "The Westlake distributors have long been voicing complaints about the Pentras. I've personally met with the top five distributors, yet they still harbor reservations about the Innova Group."Ron chuckled. "They all seem eager to go against the Pentras, but..." he trailed off, implying a lack of confidence in their ability to do so.John nodded, realizing his own uncertainties mirrored theirs. His intention wasn't an immediate defection from the Pentras but rather an exploration of their sentiments.Would they dare to break away and operate independently given the chance? The unanimous r
