Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire novel Chapter 598

Jack instantly started swaying. If he hadn’t been sitting the entire time, his legs would’ve given way, and he would have fallen to the ground.

He had never experienced regret like that before.

He regretted making that stupid promise. Why the hell did I agree to make a public stance against Vinson?

If Jack had actually been righteous, many would’ve helped and shielded him. The situation at the time, however, made it so that he was the one being targeted.

I am so dead!

One of the reporters was not as gutsy. He said, “Mr. Nightshire, please note that I am not on his side and am only here because you invited everyone to the event.”

“Me too! I never said anything earlier. You shouldn’t put the blame on us because we are the innocent and righteous reporters.”

Vinson replied calmly, “Don’t worry, everyone. Rayson had already made a video recording of everything. We know who voiced up and claimed that they are in league with the guy, so I won’t accidentally blame the innocent.”

The innocent reporters instantly calmed down.

The troublemakers who had stood by Jack earlier had turned pale instead.

–

Jack was going to apologize to salvage the situation and save himself, but a reporter suddenly sprung up.

Everyone else was seated, so the crowd instinctively turned their attention to him when he stood up like that.

The guy pushed his glasses up before calmly pointing out, “Mr. Nightshire, I’m sure you know how some despicable individuals would spread fake news. The victim is too young, so it’s difficult to take his word at face value. There is no saying if someone got him to lie.”

Hearing those words made colors return to Jack’s pale face.

Jack was quick to chime in, “He’s right! The guy’s statement is not enough. We want solid evidence because he might be lying.”
