Chapter 452:
After a brief pause, Khloe decided on her course of action.
Whitney, a prominent national figure and Conroy's older sister, could be the key to putting him in his place.
Without a second thought, she called Whitney, her tone steady and firm. “Ms. Dayton, I'm in a bit of trouble at
the medical conference. Can you helpout and repay the favor you owe?”
Back during the pharmaceutical competition, Whitney had openly acknowledged owing Khloe a favor after Khloe
had agreed to spare Sloane.
Khloe hadn't yet figured out how she would call in Whitney's favor, but today’s medical conference presented
the perfect chance to make Whitney repay her. Whitney was briefly startled and quickly recalled her past
interactions with Khloe. While they weren't close, Whitney clearly remembered Khloe’s professionalism and
generosity during the pharmaceutical competition. Additionally, thanks to Henrik, Whitney had always kept track
of Khloe’s progress and hadn't heard of any major problems she was facing, aside from strouble with Oasis
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLaboratory trying to release their portion onto the market.
After a brief pause, Whitney said, “Khloe, explain the situation to me.” Her tone was steady, with no trace of
panic or casualness.
Khloe quickly outlined Conroy's efforts to undermine her at the medical conference, from leaving Oasis
Laboratory off the list to accusing her of using connections and making unreasonable demands about
nominations. As Whitney listened, her brow creased slightly, and a flicker of disapproval crossed her face.
“I understand. | won't sit back and let this slide. The medical conference has to be fair, and | can’t let Conroy act
so recklessly. I'll talk to him right now. Put yourself on speakerphone.” Her voice remained level-headed and free
of unnecessary emotion.
The way Whitney spoke instantly reminded Khloe of Henrik. No wonder they were related by blood.
Khloe couldn't help but smile slightly at the thought of Henrik, though she quickly stifled it. Turning to Conroy,
she raised her phone and set it to speaker mode. “Mr. Dayton, | do have an influential expert who can nominate
me. You can talk with each other now.”

Conroy was caught off guard, surprised by how quickly she had found someone. Henrik’s influence truly was
impressive, even in the medical field. But Conroy had already made up his mind—no matter who Khloe brought
forward, he would find a way to deny her, ensuring she couldn't join the questioning session.
Conroy had a strong hunch that Khloe was trouble.
“Conroy.” At that moment, a calm, steady female voice cthrough Khloe’s phone, hitting Conroy like a bolt of
lightning.
His face drained of color, his eyes wide in shock and disbelief, and his body trembled slightly, unable to hide his
surprise. How could it be her?
If Conroy feared anyone in the world above all, it was undoubtedly Whitney. During the Dayton family’s struggle
to maintain their esteemed status, it was Whitney who single-handedly brought it back to stability.
Her leadership had earned profound respect from everyone in the family. As her younger brother, Conroy had
borne the brunt of many of her stern lessons.
Conroy's fear of Whitney ran deep, down to his very core.
“Whitney, why are you involved?” Conroy's voice cracked as he forced the words out, his usual confidence and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmauthority completely evaporated. The thought that Khloe would involve Whitney, his own sister, for such a
seemingly minor issue had never crossed his mind.
“Ever since you becthe Mayor, your arrogance has grown unchecked. Do you truly dismiss a talented
candidate | personally endorsed for the National Pharmaceutical Competition finals? Do you genuinely think she
doesn’t deserve a place in the conference you arranged?”
Whitney's voice was composed and steady. Yet, beneath her calm demeanor, Conroy could feel the barely
contained fury. His legs weakened, threatening to give way beneath him.
