Chapter 346
Chapter 346:
Eric's face darkened, his pride clearly wounded. He clenched his jaw, his voice low and full of venom. “Khloe,
don’t push me. I'm doing this for your own good! If you keep acting like this, no one will want to work with you!”
Charlotte took a step toward him, her eyes locked onto his with a steady, unyielding glare. “What rubbish are
you spouting now? If Erma wants to take her own life, how is that Khloe’s fault? Con, Eric. If you really want
to help Erma, just own up to it! Stop acting like you're looking out for Khloe. She doesn’t need your so-called
kindness!”
Eric's face turned crimson with anger. Her words hit him like a slap, leaving him momentarily speechless.
Erma’s voice cut through the tension. “How can you say my death has nothing to do with her? It's Khloe who's
pushedto this point! Eric's right! If you even slightly cross her, she will destroy you and your family. Stay
away from her, or you'll end up just like me!”
Khloe stood there, unfazed by the threat, not even blinking. She turned to the security guards standing nearby.
“Get her out of here. She's disrupting the event, and | won't let her ruin this competition anymore.”
The security guards hesitated for a moment, exchanging uncertain glances before moving to surround Erma. As
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe noticed Khloe’s cold, uninterested expression, Erma yelled, “Listen up, everyone on Khloe’s team! Walk away
from her now, and the Russell family will give each of you five hundred million. And additionally, we'll guarantee
you a position at Quiswell Interna Free...”
“Laboratory!”
Her words rippled through the crowd, sparking a wave of surprise. All eyes turned toward Khloe's team, and envy
flashed in the eyes of the other researchers. Khloe’s team was made up of five people: Khloe, Charlotte, Sylvie,
and two male researchers.
The two men on the team now looked visibly shaken, their uncertainty clear.
Five hundred million wasn't just life-changing—it was a fortune most could never even dream of. Ouiswell
International Laboratory wasn't just a prestigious name; it was the kind of opportunity that could launch careers
to a global scale, a dream few would ever get close to.

Everyone knew the Russell family had the power to back up their promises. Their early investment in Ouiswell
had skyrocketed their reputation and solidified their influence, making Erma’s offer all the more believable.
The two male researchers exchanged a tense look, both clearly struggling with the decision before them. The
crowd around them was also captivated by the offer.
“Wow, if I had known this was an option, | would've joined Khloe’s team back then. Imagine getting a deal from
the Russell family!”
“Seriously, they're so lucky! Leaving Oasis Laboratory, which isn’t that great, for Ouiswell International
Laboratory? That's a huge step up. It’s like going from nothing to everything!”
“And they each get five hundred million! Who wouldn't take that deal?”
As the crowd buzzed with excitement, the two researchers behind Khloe hesitated, their thoughts torn between
the temptation of the offer and their loyalty to the team. In the end, desire won.
One of the men let out a long sigh. Slowly, he stepped forward, his voice unsteady. “Khloe, I'm sorry, but I've
decided to take Erma’s offer. I'm pulling out of the competition.”
Another male researcher stepped forward, his face flushed with nervousness. “I've reached the sconclusion.
We're also considering our futures and hope you can understand.”
Sylvie responded angrily, “Fairchild, Kenyatta, how could you betray us like this? Hasn't Khloe treated you fairly
and generously? Your departure now will doom our project. Are you trying to sabotage our chances in the
competition?”
Fairchild Thompson, a young man with a sorrowful expression, stood firm despite his evident guilt. “It’s true,
Khloe has been kind, but a hefty paycheck isn’t enough. I'm driven by academic goals, and Oasis Laboratory is

the path | want to follow.”
