Chapter 272 The Press Conference
All the turmoil and strife occurred behind the scenes, yet openly churned on the surface.
Finally, the day of the Fairchild family’s press conference arrived.
Too many people suspected that the K Virus leaked from the Fairchild family. Thus, on the day of the press conference, the entire venue was packed with people.
The Fairchild family had countless adversong with the families of the victims, state–appointed prosecutors, and swarming journalists. Within half an hour, the venue was already bursting at the seams. Many who could not enter waited outside, watching the sky grow darker, yet their hearts remained restless.
think the Fairchild family will do to prove their innocence tonight?” a reporter whispered to
“What do you a colleague.
“They’ll probably do a blood test in public, but this time it can’t be like the last time where the Fairchild family handled everything. This time, the state will probably conduct the test to convince everyone.”
“That makes sense, but since the Fairchild family dared to hold this press conference, I tend to believe them. If the K Virus really leaked from them, they wouldn’t have the confidence to do this.”
“I agree. They wouldn’t shoot themselves in the foot.”
Conversations of this sort stirred up quite a buzz throughout the entire venue.
Kallum sat in the car, looking at the dense crowd outside, his expression stern.
“Don’t worry, we’ve prepared thoroughly. Even if something unexpected happens, just trust me. I have a trump card!” Calista spoke lightly to reassure him.
Feeling puzzled, Kallum asked, “A trump card? What did
you do?”
Calista smiled mysteriously, her eyes sparkling, “This is a secret! Since it is a trump card, it is absolutely foolproof. Of course, if we do not need to use it, we will not. When the time comes, you’ll see.”
She raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone light. In this tense moment, Kallum could not help but find her funny.
“I never thought you’d be one to keep secrets.”
He guessed Calista was either comforting him or had some medicine that could help him pass the inspection temporarily.
However, the latter seemed unlikely, as if she had such medicine, she wouldn’t keep it a secret unless it had significant side effects.
Amid these vague thoughts, Harvey arrived.
Harvey’s appearance made the reporters even more excited.
In just a few days, Harvey had lost a lot of weight. Even Yelena might not recognize him at first glance now.
Harvey had been stirring up trouble these past few days all for this very moment! The Fairchild family, in proving their innocence, could not avoid confronting him. After all, Harvey had vowed that he was targeted by the Fairchild family because he knew a secret.
Not only Harvey but Hendrick, who had failed to gain anything the day before yesterday, also came. Prosecutors, reporters, the Fairchild family’s confidants, and enemies- everyone who should and shouldn’t be there was present. All that was left was for the Fairchilds to arrive.
