Chapter 469 Well Done! (3)
But he didn't expect James to challenge him in front of so many people.
Seeing his panicked expression, James gave Sean a look.
Sean understood immediately and had the bodyguards 'invite' the reporter to the front, ordering him to show his press credentials.
"I didn't bring them!"
He said in a panic, "I left in such a hurry that I forgot them."
Sean said coldly, "A reporter goes out for an interview without carrying press credentials? Fine, then call your colleague to bring them over now. Otherwise, we'll sue you for defamation! Do you know how much the reputation of The Kelly Corporation is worth?"
The person pretending to be a reporter now couldn't escape even if he wanted to, but he never expected to face a lawsuit.
If The Kelly Corporation really made him pay, he couldn't afford it!
In a panic, he said, "Okay, okay, I'll tell the truth. Someone instructed me to do this!"
Sean immediately asked, "Who?"
He shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Anyway, a man in a suit found me, gave me some money, and told me to pretend to be a reporter and ask these questions!"
This scene was quickly spread online.
Even if the public was foolish, they noticed something was off.
After all, George and his people were in such a miserable state, yet they could still afford to hire someone to cause trouble at The Kelly Corporation. That wasn't simple!
James felt it was pointless to make things difficult for a subordinate, so he had Sean release the man.
Then he said, "I know you might have the same questions as he did, but you're just afraid to ask. As I said before, you're welcome to attend the trial. As for my marriage, I'd like to take this opportunity to make a statement to my wife."
Jessica looked at him in surprise.
She had no idea what he was planning.
They had already exposed the fake reporter, so why continue?
She was already uncomfortable in such a setting, and now with so many cameras pointed at her, she felt a bit shy.
Jessica's face turned bright red as she nervously looked at James.
But James looked at her with deep affection and solemnly said, "Jessica, if you're willing, I will take responsibility for you for the rest of my life. Before, you fell in love with me first. This time, let me love you properly."
Jessica's tears streamed down her face.
She didn't know if he was saying this to quell public opinion, but his words were so touching that she lost all reason.
In front of so many eyes, she threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly and crying out all her grievances and sorrows.
The reporters went crazy taking photos, almost turning their love story into a romance novel.
A few hours later, the news was everywhere.
People had even shifted their focus from the wealthy family's inheritance dispute to the gossip about the domineering CEO and the Cinderella couple.
In the office.
James and his team were still dealing with the public opinion.
Because of this public opinion, many partner companies were also expressing their doubts.
These matters had to be dealt with immediately and resolved as soon as possible.
He said to Jessica, "I'll have Sean take you home first. I expect to be up all night."
Jessica, now like a happy little woman protected so well by him, felt especially secure and at ease.
She shook her head and said, "I won't go home. I'll stay here with you, okay?"
