Standing beside Blake, Houston also sneered. “Haha, how can a woman lead a company like Beacon? Dream on! Without support from the Michaels family, I want to see how far Beacon can go under your lead!” The provocation was obvious. It attracted the attention of many entrepreneurs and celebrities present, and everyone started discussing it. “That’s the family head of the Michaels family from Golden City, Blake Michaels. His company is worth hundreds of billions, and it’s a big group!” “Such a bigwig can’t be provoked. If Beacon became enemies with them, things will be tough for them in the future.” “No doubt about it. This Wynn Johnston is asking for it. I heard that she has a kept husband, and the conflict with the Michaels family happened because of that husband of hers.” Many people chattered mockingly. Although they were all invited to this event, they did not respect Beacon in the least, much less Wynn, simply because she was a woman. What could she do? In Riverdal
At the scene, many people began to criticize Beacon and Wynn. Their words were sharp and very insulting. Among them, there were many senior leaders in the pharmaceutical industry in Riverdale and senior officials of the Medical Association. They were now standing on the opposing side against Beacon and naturally became the focus of the press conference! This scene was being broadcasted by all major media! Suddenly, Beacon became the trending topic and the public enemy of the entire city! Counterfeit medicine! Even on the internet, news about Beacon and the fraud went viral! It was just like a huge fire that had started to burn. Moreover, people kept posting on the internet that they had bought Beacon’s medicine but not only were they not cured, they even had adverse reactions to the drug. Faced with all these, even Howard and Hayley were caught off guard. Hayley quickly went on the stage and whispered in Wynn’s ear, “Madam Johnston, something happened. The internet
At this moment, Quentin was mobilizing people in the inner hall while sternly berating, “Damn you, Trent Longford! I’ll bring my men there personally to catch that guy. I want to see how he’s going to protect him! “If I can’t take this revenge, I’ll step down as the head of the Quaid family!” As Quentin’s voice fell, everyone in the hall looked startled and started to persuade him. “Old Master, you mustn’t do this. It’s just a small Riverdale. We can handle it. You just stay here.” “That’s right. Even if that’s Longford’s territory, anyone who bullies our second young master must pay the price!” At everyone’s persuasion, Quentin waved his sleeves and said, “That’s enough. I’ve already decided. All of you get ready. We’ll be leaving at any time now.” With that said, everyone stopped talking. Suddenly! “Old Master, it’s bad! Someone has broken into our manor!” At the door, the butler rushed in and was already out of breath. Before he finished talking, several bodyguards
Crack! Suddenly, the weather over Capital City changed drastically! In the sky, thunder rumbled and its intensity was frightening! Bolts of lightning flashed across the sky, weaving among the thick dark clouds like winding dragons! Enormous, thick dark clouds covered the entire sky over Capital City in an instant! It grew dark all of a sudden. The lightning that pierced through the heavens directly illuminated the entire Quaid Manor and also illuminated Quentin's face! There was anger, frigidity, and endless killing intent! As the patriarch of the Quaid family, Quentin had fought for decades before he finally took that position. It was the golden time for him to shine. How could he be scared by the words of an ignorant brat like Philip?! “Annihilate the Quaid family? You’re the first person to utter those words! Audacious!” A ferocious beast-like roar erupted from Quentin’s chest. Behind him, dozens of special guards quickly closed the circle. At the same time,
The car door opened, and a few people in green uniforms alighted respectfully from the car while holding black umbrellas. They were guarding an old man who was stepping down from the car right in the middle of the entourage. The old man's eyes glimmered as he stared at Philip with a smile flashing at the corners of his mouth. It was Old Master Joo from Capital City’s Joo family! It was not an exaggeration to describe them as the top hidden family of Capital City! They came from the most mainstream heritage! This sort of entrance was too shocking, absolutely the most heavyweight of all heavyweights! As soon as Old Master Joo appeared, he carried with him a piercing aura and stern intensity! Everyone took three steps back as a sign of respect! Quentin raised his brows when he saw the incoming person. He immediately lowered his stance and said, “I didn’t expect Old Master Joo to visit the Quaid Manor.” This was definitely a bigwig! He was one of the few remaining bigsh
In an instant, a group of heavily armed personnel outside Quaid Manor rushed in quickly. They were all members of the Joo family! They were dressed in standard combat uniform—Protective clothing, goggles, combat boots, and weapons! Like ferocious beasts, they quickly bore a hole outside Quaid Manor and rushed in continuously! They were all personnel who had experienced life-and-death battlefields and were well-trained members of the Joo family! “Protect Old Master Joo!” “Drop your weapons! We’re members of the Joo family. Don’t resist!” One team was followed by another team! Exactly like a war movie, the scene was magnificent! In an instant, the armed men of the Joo family were everywhere. They all rushed in, instantly surrounding the people of the Quaid family! It could be seen that dozens of special vehicles had gathered inside and outside Quaid Manor. One after another, the combatants jumped out of the vehicles to form neat tactical moves before rushing into Quaid
“Kill her! This b*tch, she’s a femme fatale!” “Kill her!” someone screamed. In the crowd, people started to attack Wynn. Smack! A solid slap! Shirley Wellington appeared out of nowhere and slapped Wynn before pointing at her nose and cursing, “Wynn Johnston, you’re simply too shameless. In order to win the contract, you actually slept with so many bosses. I have evidence right here!” Shirley held a thumb drive in her hand. Wynn covered her face and shouted, “Nonsense! You’re making things up! I didn’t!” “No?” Shirley sneered, handed the thumb drive to the staff, and said, “Go and play this. I want everyone to see with their own eyes what kind of filthy woman Wynn Johnston is.” Very soon, shameful visuals of a man and a woman appeared on the big screen. “Damn, it’s really her! I can’t believe she’s that sort of woman!” “Disgusting!” The woman in the film looked exactly like Wynn. When Wynn saw this scene, she was also stunned silly. She had not done anything li
At this time, the scene of the press conference was in utter chaos. Blake’s people had directly blocked the door and surrounded Wynn and the others, not letting them out at all. All the media he contacted broadcasted the news willfully. They just stood quietly at the side, watching the show. Where were all the security guards? They had been bribed by Blake’s people and disappeared long ago. Where did Cynthia go? There was an accident in the next hall and she went to deal with it. As soon as she returned, she saw this scene. “Miss Johnston!” Cynthia was anxious. She quickly pushed through the crowd, ran over, and hugged Wynn. She noticed the blood stains on her skirt and knew that the matter was serious! “Security! Security! Get away from her!” Cynthia shouted, but dozens of people still gathered around with indifferent expressions. They were still pointing and cursing at Wynn. Howard and Hayley also tried to reason with the crowd, even starting to scuffle with the
