Chapter 593
Johnny’s face fell as Jack laughed.
Rage pulsed through his veins, yet he suppressed his anger and asked, “What are you laughing at?”
Jack’s smile faded right away. “You said you’re not shirking your responsibilities. But why does it sound like that’s exactly what you’re trying to do here?”
Everyone turned to stare at Jack in awe.
Just then, the reporters who came uninvited chimed in.
“You are shirking your responsibilities!”
“You’re a huge company, but you don’t even dare to admit your mistakes?”
“What a joke. Why do we have to wait for your results when you’re the one who served food that causes food poisoning, the one who investigated the issue, and the one to announce your findings? Of course you would have the final say since you’re the one who instigated everything!”
Seeing that the crowd was agreeing with him, Jack was elated. He picked up the microphone and continued, “Mr. Green, are you still trying to shirk your responsibilities? From what I’ve heard, the patient that has been admitted might very possibly have passed away. However, you merely mentioned ‘discomfort’ instead of the truth. Do you really think we will buy whatever you say in this press conference?”
At that, Johnny couldn’t stand it anymore. “Who told you that he has passed away?”
However, Johnny’s agitation just confirmed Jack’s suspicions.
That customer must have passed away. Nightshire Group is doing everything they can to cover up the news, that’s why no one has heard of it yet.
Thus, Jack retorted coldly, “Why are your people guarding the hospital’s entrance if the patient is still alive? Why won’t you let the media in? Why won’t you give us an update on the customer or talk about it?”
However, Johnny didn’t know that the patient had regained consciousness, so he said through gritted teeth, “Because he is still receiving treatment!”
CCT
“What treatment? I think he’s already on the verge of death. Soir Coffee must close down immediately and let the professionals take over!” Jack bellowed.
His voice echoed throughout the conference room.
Moreover, there are millions of viewers taking Jack’s side.
In just a split second, Jack’s Quest for Truth’s followers surged to one million at that moment, and the numbers kept growing
Right away, a barrage of comments started rushing in on the livestream platform,
“You’re the coolest, Jack! It’s so brave of you to do so!”
“You have my full support, Jack. This is how the media should act so that we can hear the truth!”
“Less talk, more action. Let’s all like and subscribe to Jack to help him with his career. It will be very hard for him to land a gig from here on out after offending Nightshire Group. Let’s do everything we can to help him out!”
“You’re right. I will follow him right away!”
And that was how Jack’s Quest for Truth’s followers surged to one million.
Back on-site…
Jack was checking in on how fast his followers were growing as he spoke.
He almost burst into laughter when he reached one million followers.
It didn’t matter if he ticked Nightshire Group off because popularity was all he needed as an influencer.
On the other hand, Johnny was so livid that he badly wanted to curse at Jack. However, he tamped down his fury since the event was being broadcasted live and was prepared to talk civilly to Jack.
At that precise moment, Vinson, who hadn’t spoken a word, spoke up. “Excuse me, as someone who’s
working in the media industry, you should know the consequences of spreading fake news, right?”
Jack lifted his head and met Vinson’s gaze.
His cold, piercing eyes intimidated those around him and sent shivers down their spine.
Jack’s heart skipped a beat, his forehead beaded with cold sweat.
Vinson’s gaze intimidated him.
What an oppressive aura.
