Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 276

Jordan Smith sure didn’t waste any time.

He shut down the entire research lab, just like that—clean and simple. Maybe it was his way of showing the public they were taking things seriously, but not everyone was buying it.

Some folks just rolled their eyes, saying, “They’re only doing this because they got caught. If no one had made a fuss, they’d still be selling those pills, hurting people.”

But those voices started to fade, thanks to The Smith Group’s PR team working overtime to keep things quiet.

As for compensation, all the evidence was stacked against The Smith Group, but Jordan Smith refused to pay up. So, naturally, it turned into a drawn-out legal battle—one of those lawsuits that could drag on for years.

Then there was Sandra Taylor.

Now that Jordan Smith wasn’t tied up with the lab, he had time to focus on getting her out on bail. But just as he started making moves, Walter Wilson came up with hard proof—turns out there were records of Sandra trading info with a corporate spy. That wasn’t just a rumor anymore; it was practically carved in stone. Made it way harder for Jordan to pull any strings.

When Walter told Camila Davis about it, she couldn’t help but laugh, though it was more bitter than amused.

“Figures,” she said. “His first love could do just about anything, and he’d still forgive her like it was nothing. If it were me, I’d probably rot in jail till the end of time.”

Her eyes flashed cold as she turned to Walter, “Jordan Smith isn’t out of moves yet. If he really wants to get Sandra out, he’ll find a way. He’d do anything for her, I’m sure of it. So if things get tough, just keep pushing up the settlement price. No matter what, bleed him dry.”

Walter grinned, “Don’t worry, I’ve got your back. I promise you won’t lose out on this.”

Then, changing the subject, he added, “By the way, The Reed family really helped us out this time. How’s Mr. Reed doing?”

Camila replied, “He still needs a few more treatments before he’s back on his feet. I’ll be heading over to check on him these next few days.”

That reminded her of something else. “Oh, and at the end of the month, you said we’re heading to Boston. Who are we meeting there? Someone from the FDA?”

Walter nodded, “Yeah, the deputy director. Why?”
