Chapter 1172 Arielle Come Out
Jacob pretended to look puzzled.
Holding onto the microphone, he asked the crew, “Is the Chairman not here yet?”
None of the crew knew anything. In an instant, everything became chaotic.
“What happened? This is such an important day. How can she be late?”
“Does she have no respect for any of the reporters? What’s the meaning of this?”
Jacob’s lips curled into a smile.
He had bribed some of the reporters. Under their instigation, more people started to become annoyed with Arielle.
At the same time, the online viewers got worked up when Arielle failed to show up.
What’s going on? I rushed here to see Arielle. Where is she? Did something happen?
Hey! Nothing happens. I think she is just trying to act like a diva. Just because she has the protection of her fans and the reputation of Maureen’s Kitchen, she is now so full of herself!
I believe in my goddess! She isn’t that kind of person! She must have been held up by something!
It’s because of all the brainless fans like you! That’s why Arielle becomes more and more arrogant. Look! She’s so full of herself that she’s about to float into the sky!
Both her anti-fans and fans started squabbling in the comment section.
In the meantime, back at the venue, Jacob answered a phone call that had been prepared in advance and exclaimed in shock, “What did you say? The bionic arms were never completed?”
When he shot out that statement, the whole place became quiet for two seconds before chaos erupted.
“What’s going on? We are at the launching of the new product. Now they are telling us that it isn’t finished? Are they toying with us?”
“Where’s Arielle? She has to give us an explanation!”
“Holy crap! I came here all the way to see the bionic arm. Now, they are telling me it hasn’t been completed yet? They’re wasting my precious time!”
“After all these years, I have never seen a company as absurd as this one!”
“I said so earlier, didn’t I? How can a young lady manage a listed company?”
“As the Chairman and also the leader of the bionic arm project, why isn’t Arielle here? Now we know it’s because she’s feeling guilty!”
“Arielle! Come out here! She has to give us an explanation!”
The situation was getting out of control. On the outside, Jacob appeared worried, but he was secretly thrilled.
This was the effect he wanted!
Just then, a video call appeared on the big screen.
Jacob thought that the crew had connected his phone to the screen by mistake. However, when the video call was connected, Arielle’s face appeared.
Screens could cause people’s faces to be distorted. However, her face was flawless.
She looked perfect on the screen. One could only imagine how petite her face was in person.
“Arielle! It’s Arielle!”
“She’s not here in person. Instead, she appeared on a video call? What is she trying to do? Get out here right now!”
Jacob’s expression changed. There was an uneasy feeling growing within him.
Arielle could hear everything that was going on.
In a calm manner, she said, “Dear friends from the media and every esteemed guest, my subordinate, Mr. Campbell, has made a mistake with the location of the press conference. The actual address of the press conference is at Grandview Hotel.”
Everyone was stunned to hear that.
We have come to the wrong place?
Jacob’s expression changed drastically.
“Arielle, you—”
“Mr. Campbell!” Arielle cut him off and said with a cold and solemn face, “How can you possibly get the location of the press conference wrong? We’ll talk about this later. Right now, I want you to arrange for transport and send everyone to Grandview Hotel!”
