Did Harold mention Wealthwave Group? These herbs were actually supposed to be supplied to them.
Matthew immediately dialed Rachel's number. "Healthline Pharmaceutical sold the herbs from our partner farmers to Eastorians, Rae. Send someone to check the statuses of all our partner farmers."
Rachel was in the middle of a meeting, but upon hearing Matthew's words, she jumped to her feet.
These herbs were crucial for the production of drugs in the coming year. If the raw materials were taken away, the project would be screwed.
"I'll get someone to investigate this matter right away."
After hanging up, Rachel went to the driver's seat and took the key.
Time passed by slowly. In the meantime, Mason's condition was getting better and better, but Harold was still uneasy.
"How about we get out of here? We shouldn't cause any trouble. I'm afraid he'll have someone come after us."
Matthew wanted to find out more about Nelson. "You may not know who I am, but I know Nelson, your father, who works in the medical field. I'm here to see him.
"Word got out that Nelson went missing, so I want to look into it. His disappearance was sudden, just like how people suddenly show up to buy your herbs. This might be a clue."
Matthew had an inkling that Nelson's disappearance was somehow connected to the Eastorians.
Things suddenly clicked for Harold. "I always thought your medical skills were exceptional, and you remind me of my dad. It turns out you're both in the medical field.
"Since you put it like that, are you saying the people who took the herbs and kidnapped my dad are the Eastorians?"
Matthew wasn't planning to keep Harold in the dark. "This is just my speculation."
Harold crouched on the ground as if lost in thought. On the other hand, Mason started pacing around the area. Every so often, he'd turn back and glance at Caron before resuming his pacing.
