Anthony knew there was no chance to salvage the situation. He knew he had done Michael wrong by deciding to help Christian.
Michael was making it clear to him that he would do whatever it took to complete the deal with Mr. Nathan, and this was his warning and revenge on Anthony.
MC could afford to close losing deals like this but DR could not. With Christian out of commission, DR was leaderless. Anthony dared not fight head-on with Michael since Michael had already made his intention clear.
If Michael and Christian's company engaged each other in a price war, the only ones who would benefit were their business rivals.
Once Michael signed the contract, he left to meet with the representative of another company.
By the time he had finished that day's business and returned to the hospital, it was already midnight.
