Chapter 301 The One Who Should Leave Is You
Harold had seen Jesse take office before and knew him, so he immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Hello, Mr. Miller."
Jesse suppressed his anger and looked at him. "And you are?"
"I'm Harold from the Mitchell Family, a pharmaceutical family in Eldoria." Harold's face and eyes were full of flattery. "I met you with my father before."
Douglas Campbell, who was next to Jesse, stepped in to defuse the situation. "Mr. Miller, it was the Mitchell Family who helped find the child this..."
"You know them?" Jesse interrupted him.
Douglas paused and then said, "Yes, their medical technology is very advanced and ranks highly nationwide."
"Really?" Jesse's face showed no emotion. "Is this the same Mitchell Family that was previously close with the Cooper family?"
As soon as he said this, not only did Douglas's face change, but the people following behind also became uneasy.
"Mr. Miller, our family..." Harold wanted to explain.
Jesse already chuckled softly, very approachable. "No wonder Mr. Mitchell of the Mitchell Family, with just a few words, can drive out our hero of the day."
Hero? Who?
That bumpkin? Impossible!
Harold watched as Jesse walked past him, dumbfounded like an idiot.
Some people were just arrogant. Since the farewell at the manor, the Mitchell Family hadn't paid attention to Adeline.
Harold had heard people mention that the fake from the Martinez Family was quite popular in live streams.
But she was just an internet celebrity; no matter how popular, what use was it?
Harold thought she was just using her looks to sell products online and cling to rich people. Not knowing the whole story, he could only desperately try to keep up with those old family friends.
Those who usually interacted with the Mitchell Family were already starting to sweat.
One of them sensed something was wrong and pretended to scold, "What's going on with the Mitchell Family? Who gave him the right to drive people out?"
Jesse ignored them and walked towards Adeline, extending his hand, his voice loud and confident. "Dr. Vanderbilt, please allow me, on behalf of all the rescued women and children, to say thank you."
"You're too kind." Adeline smiled lightly, her demeanor polite. "It's thanks to your good governance."
Almost instantly, all eyes were on them.
Harold was already stunned.
With so much media presence, Jesse, a high-ranking official, actually took the initiative to shake hands with a young woman.
This had already surprised many people!
What he said next caused an even bigger stir!
The people below looked at each other and completely ignored the Mitchell Family.
"Dr. Vanderbilt? Is she the one who went to Eastgate Towns alone, risking her life to deliver evidence to the cyber police?"
"I watched that live stream! This young woman is the savior of our children!"
"Without her, the case wouldn't have been solved!"
The parents of the abducted children all stood up!
They knew in their hearts who the real hero was.
The public wasn't stupid.
Jesse coldly looked to the side. "Some people want to take credit for everything. It seems the medical sector hasn't been thoroughly investigated."
"Mr. Miller, it's all a misunderstanding," Elijah, who had hurried over, explained anxiously.
If Jesse couldn't see through this little trick, he wouldn't be fit to be a secretary. "Misunderstanding? Mr. Harold Mitchell just called for security."
"Is there anyone here who still doesn't know who the hero of this rescue operation is?" Jesse's voice carried authority without anger. "If you don't know, then leave."
