At the Jewel Hotel, Horton City.
Penny and Grace, along with a number of Cross Group executives, were busy directing their employees on how to decorate the venue.
The product launch was to be held in two days, but the stage had not been built and the light testing was not done yet. So everyone had begun working since morning to ensure the event would run smoothly.
Meanwhile, Nathan arrived at the scene with Dr. Stanley Torres.
Penny and the others quickly surrounded them.
"It really is you, Dr. Torres! We're so honored to have you as our special guest for the product launch,” Penny exclaimed.
With a smile, Nathan introduced Penny to Dr. Torres, "This is my wife, Penny Smith. She's the chairman and CEO of Cross Group."
Dr. Torres nodded and smiled faintly. "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Cross."
Penny blushed upon hearing that.
She was commonly referred to as Ms. Smith in official settings, so being called Mrs. Cross made her rather bashful.
But the woman received an important message from this.
The fact that Dr. Torres addressed her as Mrs. Cross instead of Ms. Smith implied that he had agreed to take part in Cross Group's product launch mainly due to his relationship with Nathan.
Otherwise, the man would never have joined any commerce-related activities organized by any firm from the pharmaceutical industry.
Penny couldn't help but gaze at Nathan with pride. He's amazing to be able to invite Dr. Torres to our product launch.
Then, Nathan introduced another important figure to Dr. Torres. "This is
Professor Hampton. She's the one who led our team of researchers in the development of our Q-Than liver cancer special meds. She's our hero."
"Hello, Dr. Torres!” Grace exclaimed with a bow, looking like a fangirl who had just met her biggest idol.
Dr. Torres nodded slightly. "I see so much potential in today's youth. Your generation will be the future of Eurasia's world of medicine."
