A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1506

Although they were faced with many reporters hired by Darren, Jacob and David were able to answer all the questions without a hitch.

Thinking that they were probably out of the woods now, Jacob casually pointed at a reporter. She looked gentle and harmless as she sat timidly in the front row, so Jacob figured that he would give her a chance to ask a question.

When she stood up, the reporter looked a little shy and embarrassed to be in front of them.

Almost all of the reporters had gotten the answers that they wanted from David and Jacob. The reporter who stood up didn't seem like the type who would ask intimidating questions that were hard to answer, so the other reporters didn't pay any attention to her. Some of the reporters were even preparing to leave the venue and were only waiting for the closing remarks of the press conference.

"Mr. Gu, in the previous press conference that you held, you mentioned that the KING Group is a competitor of HT Group. You also said that Mr. Darren Xu was always thoroughly beaten by you no matter how he competed with you. However, as we all witnessed these past few days, the quality of the KING Group's products was not compromised in any way. They are a complete opposite of the quality of HT Group's products. Does this mean that you've been defeated by Mr. Xu?"

The female reporter's voice was gentle, but her question was anything but. Jacob felt as if he was being indicted.

The room went silent as everyone waited for an answer.

David squinted at the female reporter, trying to get a closer look at her face.

If he hadn't investigated and discovered that Darren had hired a bunch of reporters to attend the conference, then he probably wouldn't have realized that this female reporter was also working for Darren.

The reporter looked inexperienced. It seemed that she hadn't been in the journalism industry for that long. As he observed the reporter, David noted that she was the embodiment of the saying that new-born calves did not fear tigers.

Jacob did not attempt to deflect from the question. On the contrary, he answered it with as much poise and grace as he had had when answering other questions.

"This current situation is still under investigation. If the investigation shows that the products of our HT Group genuinely had quality problems, then we will deal with them seriously. But if someone set us up with ill intentions, then we will make sure that the legal department of the HT Group handles it and never lets the culprit go, whoever they may be," he explained.

After he finished talking, he raised his head proudly. Then, he looked directly into the camera, which was broadcasting the press conference live. "He who laughs last laughs best. Regarding the question about whether I have lost to Darren or not, I say that it's not over yet. Please wait and see. Besides, the truth will come out sooner and later. I hope a certain someone remembers that."

"Ha-ha!" Darren looked at Jacob on the screen of his television with a smirk. Jacob actually had the nerve to threaten him like that. "Then… Let us wait and see," he sneered.

Even though Jacob had practically threatened him on live television, Darren was unfazed. After all, he was the mastermind behind the food poisoning issue. It definitely set HT Group back by a hundred steps.

Just now, Jacob had claimed that the truth would come out sooner or later.

Unfortunately for Jacob, Darren was confident that they would not find an ounce of evidence that would tie him to the incident.

"What did he say? Wait and see?" Darren, who was lost in deep thought about Jacob's threat, suddenly glared at the person who spoke. When he saw that it was just Bonnie, his gaze immediately softened and became gentler.

Bonnie was taken aback by Darren's cold gaze. She explained carefully, "I knocked on the door a few times, but I didn't hear any answer. The research and development department told me that this document is quite urgent, so I figured you would want it as soon as possible."

Her voice got lower as she spoke. The last sentence she said was murmured so softly that it was almost as if she was whispering to the wind.

All of a sudden, Darren burst into a peal of amused laughter. He stood up, walked over to her, and held her hand. "I was just thinking about something serious before you came in. I thought you were someone else."

As she heard Darren's explanation, Bonnie breathed out a sigh of relief. She looked up at Darren again with a doe-eyed expression. When she was sure that he wasn't in a bad mood, she said, "I thought I was disturbing you or something."

"You could never disturb me. I told you on the first day you came here that you don't need to knock on the door to enter my office." He affectionately rubbed Bonnie's hair and guided her to the sofa.

He coaxed her to sit down.
