Chapter 1457 Collaboration

"I've perused the summary report you submitted; it's excellent and has already been implemented. The first batch

of products has been dispatched to the base. I anticipate we'll see results by tonight." Kendrick nodded, diving

straight into business matters without any unnecessary preamble.

Nicole was aware of the progress, but she hadn't anticipated that Kendrick would seek her out for this particular

matter. However, Chloe was the one who had been overseeing the base lately, so Kendrick could have approached

Chloe for any issues.

"You could have directly consulted Chloe about this, Kendrick. I'm merely a freeloader now," Nicole chuckled, her

words subtly creating a distance between herself and Kendrick.

"No, no, no, there's a matter that only you, Miss Anderson, can decide. That's the sole reason I requested your

presence today." Kendrick shook his head, observing Nicole's puzzled expression. He didn't mince words and spoke

candidly, "There's a pharmaceutical company interested in partnering with us; specifically, they want our patent.

I'm curious if you have any suggestions or potential partners in mind regarding this."

A pharmaceutical company?

Nicole's brow furrowed slightly. The base's reputation was still in its infancy; how could someone already be

interested in a partnership? Moreover, they bypassed her and approached Kendrick instead.

This situation seemed rather peculiar.

In essence, Kendrick was merely a partner to them, profiting from the venture without any substantial rights. If the

other party was seeking out Kendrick for a discussion, were their intentions genuine?

Seeing Nicole deep in thought, Kendrick suddenly realized he hadn't disclosed the name of the pharmaceutical

company and quickly added, "It's Cure."

Cure?

Upon hearing this, even the typically composed Nicole couldn't maintain her calm.

Cure was the largest pharmaceutical company in Florend, currently expanding internationally. Numerous countries,

including Restrad, had extended invitations to them. However, why would such a colossal company want to

collaborate with her? She was aware of her base's capacity, and whether it could handle such a partnership was

another question.

"I understand your concerns. Rest assured, I've brought the contract for your perusal."

Without further ado, Kendrick turned around, retrieved a folder from behind him, and handed it to Nicole.

Nicole took it and scrutinized it. She had done some research in this area and had to admit that the treatment and

benefits offered were quite generous. It seemed they genuinely sought a mutually beneficial partnership. However,

she still couldn't comprehend why such a massive company was interested in her base.

"Mr. Hofstead, there's something I'm uncertain about. I'm not sure if you're at liberty to answer." Nicole hesitated

for a moment before finally voicing her question.

The origin of such a partnership needed to be clarified.

"Please proceed, Miss Anderson," Kendrick responded with a smile.

Encouraged, Nicole asked directly, "I'm curious as to why Cure would approach us for a partnership, though. After

all, Cure is a large corporation; there must be numerous bases they could collaborate with. Why would they choose

my modest base?"

Indeed, Kendrick had to concede that he admired Nicole's ability to remain level-headed in such a situation. Her

clarity of thought was truly remarkable. Given the opportunity, her facility could certainly grow and thrive with a

grounded approach.

"Miss Anderson, you're overthinking it. I merely mentioned this to Cure's CEO at a cocktail party once, and they've

been considering it ever since. This time, they're offering us an opportunity, but naturally, we still have to compete

with other bases," Kendrick responded with a smile. He had no intention of ensnaring Nicole in this matter. If they

could secure this partnership, his influence would also increase slightly. This was merely a precaution for his future

confrontation with Colton.
