The timing of this press conference was
extremely precise.
A few minutes before Wendy appeared, it
happened to be the beginning of the
Harbor Stocks call auction.
Because of a series of negative news and
Wendy’s kidnapping and disappearance,
the confidence of Harbor Stocks’ market
investors was generally lacking and
sluggish, which then led to the call
auction stage where everyone was selling.
According to this situation, Harbor Stocks
would be greeted by an earth-shattering
collapse once the market was officially
opened.
However, when the call auction came to a
n end and all transaction data was locked,
Wendy appeared.
“I want to thank everyone and the media
for coming. I am Wendy Schuler,
President of JW Company.”
Wendy was sitting on the podium with a
beaming face. One could not tell that she
had just been kidnapped.
“In truth, the main purpose of this press conference is to inform the public about things that people have been concerned about recently.”
Wendy looked at the eagerly awaiting reporters below. After pondering how she would form her sentence, she continued, ” First of all, there would be no changes or postponement with the cooperation between JW Company and its partners that were previously announced, instead, i t may happen faster and earlier than previously planned.”
This news did not cause any sensation among the reporters. After all, since Wendy showed up and held such a press conference, then the previous cooperation plan must be fine.
The reporters were more concerned about the kidnapping.
Wendy seemed to know exactly what these reporters wanted to hear, and her second sentence was about the kidnapping.
“Secondly, I will also take this
opportunity to offer some explanations regarding the previous rumors that I was
kidnapped that were circulating
“I was indeed kidnapped two days ago, but as you can see, I have successfully escaped. This kidnapping did not cause any harm or impact to my personal life, and it is unlikely to cause any harm to JW’s business plans in Harbor City.
“I want to thank everyone from all walks of f life for your attention and concern. Despite the little accident, both I and JW Company will continue to promote cooperation with Harbor City, Harbor City is one of the economic and financial centers in Terra and the world, so no…”
Wendy’s speech on the television was still going on when a teacup flew over and smashed the television. Then, Wendy’s voice stopped abruptly.
In the study of a villa in a wealthy area in New York, Kayden turned his head and glared coldly at Fabian. He gritted his teeth and said, “Is this the foolproof plan that you mentioned?
“Explain to me why that woman is at the press conference!?
“How is it that we have no idea how our
plan even failed?”
Kayden’s roar reverberated throughout
the entire study, but Fabian was even
more afraid of the somber expressions of
Half-the-Harbor Langdon, Kennedy, and
his father Sawyer.
“I-I have no idea!”
Fabian was panicking as he said in a
shaky voice, “I contacted Phoenix and he
said that everything is okay… b-but… how
did this happen?”
“You’re asking me?”
Kayden was fuming as he lost his cool
