Chapter 1176 Roasted Peanuts
All of a sudden, Jacob had an ominous feeling that things would not turn out right for him. Furthermore, that feeling wouldn’t go away but grow stronger instead.
Arielle cast Jacob a glance and smiled as she turned to Bjorn and gestured at him to go ahead. “Welcome to our mystery guest. Some of the audiences have already recognized you. Nevertheless, please introduce yourself.”
When she set up the bionic arm for Bjorn, she had a request and that was for him to show up at the press conference for the product launch.
In the initial stages, she was worried that he would not be able to overcome his fear of appearing in public. Hence, seeing him here, she was relieved.
Feeling grateful, Bjorn nodded at Arielle. Then he addressed the press, “Hello, everyone. I’m Bjorn Seyward, the heir to the Seyward Group. I was also in the news for some time. A few years ago, I lost an arm because of an accident. After that, as you all know, I was never seen again outside my house. Today is the first time in a long while I make an appearance.”
Jacob gritted his teeth in a fury. Since you haven’t left home for so many years, you should stay home. Why on earth do you have to come here?
Bjorn did not look at Jacob as he continued, “Many would wonder why after hiding away for so many years, I would be here today…”
As he spoke, he took something carefully out of the box he carried.
The crowd looked and saw that it was a realistic-looking arm. If he had not taken it out of a box, one would think that it was real.
After taking out the bionic arm, he attached it to himself, and then…
“Ms. Moore, would you like to have some roasted peanuts? I made them myself,” Bjorn asked suddenly.
Instantly, Arielle understood what Bjorn wanted to do and nodded. “A snack prepared by the man himself. It’s my honor.”
Bjorn nodded and snapped his fingers with his left hand.
In just a moment, a housekeeper of the Seyward family brought a plate of roasted peanuts.
When the crowd was wondering what was going on, Bjorn grabbed a fork with his right hand, which was the bionic arm, and skillfully picked up one of the peanuts. Then, he brought it close to Arielle.
Each movement was smooth and natural. It was as if the arm was really his own.
After a moment of silence, the audience erupted into chatters.
“My goodness! He used the bionic arm to pick up a peanut with a fork!”
“Is that really a bionic arm? It looks like his own!”
“I thought the Moore Group’s bionic arm could only perform simple functions. Incredibly, it could perform something so complex.”
“A person who had lost an arm can really lead a normal life again!”
“Such a great invention. I think it can win the International Noble Award.”
Naturally, Arielle heard the crowd’s discussion.
As Bjorn beckoned to her with his eyes, she bent forward slightly and ate the peanut.
Click! Click! Click! Innumerable cameras that were pointing at them began flashing continuously as the reporters captured the historical moment.
The audience who saw this scene in the live broadcast room also flooded the chat.
“My friend lost an arm in an accident. I’m going to ask him to book one immediately!”
“Awesome! This is really awesome! Is Arielle a genius? She can do everything well! It’s not just her ability to run an award-winning restaurant, but she’s also able to produce bionic arms! Is there anything she can’t do?”
