Chapter 316


    The matter spread to the public before Iris had time to contain the news.


    The media and newspaper publishers swiftly reported Morris Group’s error as a headline topic, The


    medical devices endorsed by the national treasure, Benny Quinton, were deemed defective. Use of the


    medical devices in a clinical setting had resulted in the death of a patient!


    That news became an instant sensation that spread all over Erudia.


    Benny’s appointment as Morris Group’s ambassador had boosted Morris Group’s reputation and sales


    to the top in the business field.


    Thepany’s market value increased steeply as well.


    Morris Group’s exponential growth had limited the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce’s control


    over the market.


    Unexpectedly, a disaster urred just after a few days of sess.


    A patient’s death was a taboo in the medical field.


    Unfortunately, Morris Group had to face the predicament.


    At eight o’clock in the morning.


    Quebec’s Department of Business and Management, Department of Work Safety, Consumers’


    Association, Department of Commerce, Department of Commercial Products’ Quality Assurance, and


    State Police Department joined forces to investigate that matter.


    They halted Morris Group’s factory production and operations at once.


    All six departments had assigned a special task force to Morris Group, temporarily suspending Morris


    Group’s business license.


    The entire organization that was running smoothly before had copsed, all of a sudden.


    Iris and the other executives were discussing ways to deal with the issue when a group of people


    marched up to the meeting room.


    The door to the meeting room was forcefully pushed open.


    “Can I meet with the person-in-charge in this ce? We are from the special task force established by


    the six main departments in Quebec. We are tasked with the investigation of the grave error found in


    yourpany’s products!”


    The man leading the group of people was Keith York, the deputy director of the Quebec Police


    Department. He was nicknamed ‘Justice Keith’, for his righteous personality.


    No one expected a special task force to be established with the sole purpose of handling that matter.


    So, it was clear to see the impact of the w in Morris Group’s medical apparatus.


    Iris stood up frightfully and exined, “I am the vice-president of Morris Group, Iris Anabelle. I am the


    person-in-charge for now.”


    Keith introduced himself in a cold tone, “I am the captain of this special task force, Keith York. Request


    for yourpany’s president and chairman of the board to show themselves at once!”


    “This…”


    Iris was caught in a difficult position.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.


    All the other executives were exchanging nces, one amongst the other because even the majority of


    them had never seen Morris Group’s big boss.


    Their president, Neil Rhodes, was not frequently seen in thepany as well.


    “Mr. York, I am the main handler of Morris Group at the moment. You can speak to me directly if there’s


    anything urgent,” Iris ryed.


    Keith sneered, “A vice-president is running the entirepany? Maybe Morris Group’s faulty internal


    management is to me for this w in thepany’s production! I am now suspecting Morris Group’s


    owner to be on the run aftermitting a crime!”


    “No, that’s not it…” Iris hurriedly shook her head.


    “Okay. Then why don’t you tell me what’s going on?” Keith stared at her.


    “I…” Iris did not know how to describe Morris Group’s management style because their big boss and


    president, Neil Rhodes, were extraordinary men.


    “So, you can’t tell me anything?” Keith jeered at Iris.


    “I hereby announce all on-going processes in Morris Group to be halted and every member of the


    company to be subjected to inquiry. The employees rted to the production department will undergo


    rigorous questioning. The police will now begin to inspect Morris Group. Anyone who is involved in this


    fatal incident will be severely punished!”


    All members of thepany’s upper management were anxious after listening to Keith’s speech. If the


    police can prove Morris Group’s negligence in this matter, thepany will meet its downfall, and all of


    us, executives, will certainly face time in prison.


    Iris and her colleagues defended themselves, “I hope you will uncover the truth, Mr. York. There is


    absolutely nothing wrong with our products. We’d even received multiple certifications from the Quality


    Control Department. Moreover, we even have Mr. Quinton to guarantee our products’ quality. There


    must be someone out there who’s trying to frame us!”
