Locke returned to the room with a gloomy look. There is a line that he said well: "Lies will never hurt, but the truth is the sharpest knife."

He was deeply hurt by Gavin's words and felt anxious inside. He didn't want to be punished when he returned.

But Locke also knew that he had lost his pharmaceutical cooperation, and with the president's character, it was impossible not to punish him.

Locke couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the president's harsh punishment methods, and at the same time he felt resentment towards Gavin and Ryan.

Needless to say about the former, Locke can't wait to destroy him now.

As for the latter, although Locke didn't dare to blame Ryan, it would be a lie to say that he didn't have any resentment against Ryan in his heart.

No matter how high-sounding Ryan's words were, they could not change the fact that he turned to cooperate with the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce. It was because of him that Locke was punished.

Although Lane's actions did not violate the contract, and Locke could not do anything to Lane, the relationship was settled.

Now that Ryan is in the spotlight, Director Locke can only bury his resentment deep in his heart and greet Ryan with a smile.

But once Ryan encounters a setback, don't blame him for adding insult to injury and giving Ryan a hard kick.

Just as Locke was thinking about how to explain to the president when he returned to Guanhai City, Andy on the side interrupted his thoughts.

"Director Locke, are your discussions with Baron Lane not going well?"

Ryan only brought two directors to the reception room to discuss cooperation, and Andy could only wait for the news in the room.

Although Andy did not participate in the negotiation, it could be seen from Locke's face that the result of this negotiation was not good.

Locke didn't speak and nodded slightly.

Andy's heart sank instantly when he saw this. He really guessed it right, but now he was in trouble.

For the Yaojin Chamber of Commerce, Ryan is just a partner and investment target, but for him, it is a life-saving straw.

In order to grasp this straw, he did not hesitate to show his temper and character that he had hidden for many years, and exposed his true self to his father and the eldest brother.

Andy knew very well that once he was exposed, his father and elder brother would never let him go, but he still decided to take a gamble and entrust his future to Ryan.

If he succeeds, he still has a glimmer of hope; if he fails, he can face it calmly.

Fortunately, he made the right bet, and Ryan really rose to prominence, defeating Baron Bach, who was previously optimistic about the Chamber of Commerce, and successfully attracted the attention of his father, and also won a chance for himself.

With Ryan as his support, his life in the Chamber of Commerce will be much easier in the future, and he may even have a chance to compete with his elder brother.

Before coming, he had learned that after the pharmaceutical cooperation was concluded, he would be able to contact the pharmaceutical business when he returned to the Chamber of Commerce.

You must know that pharmacy is the pillar industry of Yaojin Chamber of Commerce. His father asked him to take over part of it in order to give him capital to fight against his elder brother.

In other words, his father changed his original mind and was willing to give him a chance to compete with his elder brother.

Although even if there is a chance, he may not be his opponent. After all, his influence has been deeply entrenched in the Chamber of Commerce for so many years.

But having a chance is better than waiting to die, just in case he succeeds.

Besides, he also has the help of Baron Lane. As long as Baron Lane becomes more powerful, he will have enough confidence to compete with his elder brother.

Of course, there is a price to pay for getting Ryan's help, but Andy has already convinced himself that he is just a dog for Ryan. Rather than lingering and waiting to die, it is better to be a dog that can show off his power.

But now he doesn't even have the chance to be a dog to Ryan. If Ryan is won over by the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce, then he won't be able to save his life, let alone compete with his eldest brother for the position of heir.

Andy asked Locke with a slightly trembling voice: "Did Baron Ryan be dragged into the Chamber of Commerce by the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce?"

Locke glanced at Andy. Of course he knew why Andy was so worried, but he was not in the mood to tell Andy what happened now and just shook his head.

Seeing Locke shaking his head, Andy breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the worst situation hadn't happened. As long as Ryan was not dragged into the Chamber of Commerce by the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce, they would still have a chance.

Since Ryan was not won over by the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce, there was a problem with the pharmaceutical cooperation. It must have been the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce that took over the cooperation.

In fact, Andy had a bad premonition when he saw at the city gate that the meeting gift Gavin brought was a mini dragon.

The fact that the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce is willing to give the natural disaster cub to Ryan shows that they are determined to win this cooperation.

However, the Yaojin Chamber of Commerce is not prepared to deal with it and will definitely encounter trouble during cooperation negotiations.

But Andy didn't remind Locke. Locke couldn't have thought of anything he could think of. In addition, with the contract signed in advance, it stands to reason that the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce would not be able to steal cooperation so easily.

Andy, who was deeply puzzled, couldn't help but said to Locke:

"Director Locke, I know you are in a bad mood and don't want to talk more, but the situation is urgent now. If you have one more person to help you make suggestions, we will have more opportunities, so please tell me the content of the discussion."

When Locke heard this, he also felt that Andy was right.

He and Andy are now grasshoppers on a rope. Without the cooperation in the pharmaceutical, neither of them will end well.

So Locke told Andy the complete contents of the negotiation.

After Andy listened to Locke's story, he didn't speak for a long time.

After a while, he said to Locke with an embarrassed expression:

"Director Locke, you have worked your way up from the bottom. You have handled so many businesses, large and small. How could you make such a low-level mistake? You didn't even write down the terms restricting transactions!"

Andy was really angry. He had imagined many reasons why the pharmaceutical cooperation was taken away, but he never thought that it was because the contract did not restrict Ryan.

Even the most ordinary merchants would not make such a mistake, but the director of their chamber of commerce did it. How could Andy accept this?

Locke lowered his head in frustration. He really couldn't refute Andy.

Even he had difficulties. For example, he was in a hurry to discuss with Ryan the robbery of the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce's supplies and had no time to argue with Ryan. Another example was that he did not expect Ryan to occupy Ironthorn Town so quickly.

But no matter how many reasons there are, they can't change the fact that there are no restrictions in the contract, so Locke can only bow his head and admit defeat.

"Sorry, this was my mistake. I don't want to explain too much. If it's wrong, it's wrong. When I return to Guanhai City, I will go to the president to apologize. But the most important thing right now is how to make up for this mistake and strive for Make amends for the past.”

Locke said to Andy sincerely.

Andy also knew that now was not the time to hold people accountable. He just couldn't bear it anymore, so he said to Locke,

He tried to calm down the anger in his heart and began to think about countermeasures.

But he couldn't think of a solution to the problem after thinking for a long time. Who made the Blue Ocean Chamber of Commerce learn a lesson and sign a contract with restrictive clauses with Ryan first.

With this contract in place, it would be difficult for them to win back the pharmaceutical cooperation.

"How about I go and ask Baron Ryan personally to see if we can achieve cooperation in other aspects."
