chapter 15 the White Family Council was earth-shattering!

by Melissa 09:10,Dec 18,2023
Morning hours.
Inside the ancestral home of the White Family, it was bustling with activity!
One by one, the high-ranking members of the White Group took their seats, engaged in fervent discussions.
The outbreak of the AS pneumonia virus was a disaster for the residents of Jackville City, but for pharmaceutical companies, it was a rare opportunity!
Whoever could develop a treatment for AS pneumonia could almost monopolize the pharmaceutical market in Jackville City and several major surrounding cities in a short time!
Especially within the White Group!
First Elder Draco White, Second Elder Hotah White, Third Elder Esai!
Among these three, whoever could come up with a cure would unquestionably have tremendous prestige and influence within the group in the future.
"Have you heard? First Elder Draco has found a master of traditional Chinese medicine, who has formulated an ancient prescription that can eliminate the AS pneumonia virus for a month! Although it will relapse, it's already quite remarkable!"
"Haha... Second Elder Hotah is also not bad! He has found many medical experts from China and abroad, and has formulated a potion that can suppress the AS virus for half a month!"
"Hehe, Draco First Elder and Hotah Second Elder, are indeed the pillars of the White Group! However, our Third Elder Esai is in a bad situation this time! It is said that the master of traditional Chinese medicine and foreign experts he invited have all failed! I don't know how he will explain to the old man today!"
"..."
The high-ranking members of the White Group were engaged in noisy discussions.
Among them, Draco First Elder and Hotah Second Elder were the most talked about, and almost everyone knew that they had developed methods to suppress the virus in a short time.
Even though they couldn't cure it and could only suppress the virus for a short time, it was already very valuable!
On the contrary!
Third Elder Esai, who was not well-received, had become the butt of everyone's jokes due to his failure this time.
Listening to the surrounding ridicule!
Esai couldn't help but clench his fists, and a thick bitterness and loss appeared on his face.
He was prepared to be scolded by the old man.
Behind Esai, Bella looked at her father's lonely figure and couldn't help but feel heartache.
"Will our family be driven out of the White family this time?"
In Bella's mind, she couldn't help but think of Tacito.
"I wonder if there would be a miracle if that guy were here?"
Bella thought to herself, then shook her head.
This time, all the people who were formulating the potion were experts in Chinese and Western medicine, and although Tacito's performance last night was impressive, he was not a god and didn't understand medicine.
Soon!
In the midst of the noisy discussions, one after another, figures walked in.
"Hahaha... Esai, how did it go this time? Did you find the prescription?"
A hearty laughter came, and First Elder Draco and Second Elder Hotah walked in side by side.
Behind them were their children.
However, these people looked at Bella and Esai with scorn and disdain.
"Big... Big Brother! Second Brother!" Esai was slightly surprised and quickly stood up to greet them.
Seeing Esai's appearance!
First Elder and Second Elder had a touch of mockery in their eyes.
"Alright! Sit down!" First Elder Draco patted Esai's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Even if you didn't find the treatment method, at most you will be scolded by our father! It's fine!"
As he spoke, Draco pointed to his own son, Pelagio White, with a proud expression on his face.
"I also have to thank Pelagio! He personally invited a master of traditional Chinese medicine and developed a suppressive potion! Just now, the old man was praising Pelagio for his competence! Haha..."
Although Draco's words were comforting Esai, he was actually showing off his son Pelagio.
Sure enough!
Upon hearing this, all the high-ranking members around stood up and started to flatter him.
Their voices were full of flattery and appeasement!
Facing the flattery of everyone, First Elder Draco and his son Pelagio had proud and joyful expressions on their faces.
That's not all!
A young girl stepped forward and said to Bella,
"Hey! Our smart and capable cousin, why didn't you help Uncle Esai this time? Aren't you known as the number one beauty in Jackville City? If you acted, I'm afraid countless masters of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine would fall under your pomegranate skirt!"
The girl's words were extremely sharp.
It made Bella feel a little angry.
"Adalynn White, don't go too far!"
The girl in front of her, Adalynn White, was the daughter of her Second Uncle Hotah.
She had been jealous of Bella since she was a child, jealous of Bella's beauty, Bella's education, and even more jealous of Bella's abilities.
Even the position of the general manager of the White Group was a competition between Bella and Adalynn.
In the end, Adalynn lost to her cousin Bella.
This made her hatred for Bella reach its peak.
And now!
"Hmph! Bella, so what if I go too far!" Adalynn stared at Bella, her eyes full of provocative meaning.
"This time, I contacted foreign Western medicine experts and developed a virus-suppressing potion myself! Grandpa just praised me!"
"And you? What have you done! And your useless husband! Apart from making us, the White family, the laughingstock, he can only eat and wait for death!"
"I think, you and your useless husband, might be kicked out of the White family after today! Hahaha..."
Adalynn laughed wildly!
Immediately, she and her father and others took their seats.
Seeing this scene!
Esai's lips curled up in a bitter smile, which grew stronger.
He and Bella had already felt the malice from the families of the First Elder and Second Elder. Obviously, they wanted to use this incident to drive their family out of the White family!
Thinking of this!
Esai couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. However, just then, he was taken aback.
Because he suddenly remembered what Tacito had said last night.
"Pocket?"
Esai felt his pocket and pulled out a wad of toilet paper.
This toilet paper had been crumpled up, and on it were lines of words written with an eyebrow pencil.
"Resurrection Pill
Formulate perilla frutescens 10g, black nightshade 8g, chicken gold 5g..."
There were many words on it, densely packed, listing various herbs and the weight of each herb!
Seeing this!
Esai was slightly stunned, and Bella behind him couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"Father, where did you get this?"
"Resurrection Pill? What is this? Why is it written on toilet paper?"
Bella was full of doubts.
Upon hearing this, Esai couldn't help but say with a bitter smile.
"This seems to be what Tacito wrote in the bathroom last night! When he was drinking, he specifically told me to take it out today!"
What!
Tacito wrote it in the bathroom?
Bella was a little confused.
However, before she could say anything, her cousin Adalynn, who was next to her, obviously saw this scene and snatched the wad of toilet paper.
"Hey! Are you playing some kind of secret strategy? It seems that my useless brother-in-law is not completely useless, huh?"
Adalynn's face was full of mockery, and then she looked at the words on it and started reading.
"Resurrection Pill! My God, what a chuuni name! Can it really resurrect the dead, make bones grow flesh, and reclaim souls?"
"And this formula perilla frutescens, black nightshade, chicken gold... Hahaha, what the hell are these?"
Saying this!
Adalynn waved the toilet paper in her hand and laughed loudly at everyone.
"Hahaha... Did you all see? This is the secret strategy my useless brother-in-law Tacito gave to my Third Uncle! Resurrection Pill!"
Boom!
As soon as these words came out, all the high-ranking members of the White Group were in an uproar.
Everyone had heard of Tacito!
The most famous parasite and waste in the White family!
No job, no ability, a stay-at-home son-in-law who does laundry and cooks every day!
Immediately, everyone around started laughing.
"Hahaha... Bella, is your husband watching too much? He's even playing the secret strategy card!"
"Yeah! What the hell is Resurrection Pill? Does he think that what he casually wrote can compare with what the masters of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have developed? That's too overconfident!"
"Haha... it was even written in the toilet! This Tacito is really a weirdo!"
"..."
The surrounding laughter and discussion were endless!
This made Esai and Bella's faces extremely ugly.
But at this moment!
No one knew that outside the main hall, two old men were slowly approaching.
They were discussing the Resurrection Pill with serious expressions!
