The 24th Century Warrior Became a Fake Heiress novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 Walking into the Trap

A seed of anxiety sprouted in their chests, fearing Carter Group might actually hold a royal flush.

Yet reading the swelling wave of online outrage, their confidence roared right back.

That’s right–Carter Group is just bluffing to cover up their panic! –

Reassured by the thought, Jeremy sneered with icy contempt, “Come on. Let’s go meet this brilliant CEO.

“Let’s see what kind of revolutionary tricks Carter Group has up its sleeve.”

Arrogance dripped from every syllable he uttered.

He refused to believe Carter Group had developed anything genuine.

They had to be using some underhanded trick to fake the entire show for the cameras.

But a counterfeit was still a counterfeit, worthless under scrutiny.

The moment real scientific testing touched it, the facade would crumble into dust.

Driven by sheer hubris, he led his entourage straight into Carter Group’s presentation hall.

Raising his chin high, he declared, “I had no intention of setting foot in a charlatan’s venue!

“Lest anyone accuse me of siding with Powell Group to bully a competitor, but Carter Group’s blatant fraud crossed every ethical line!

“Scientists have homelands, but science knows no borders. To forge results like this is an insult to every researcher on the planet!

“And so, I am here!

“I don’t care if bad actors claim I’m picking on them!

“I will personally expose Carter Group’s fraud to the daylight!”

In truth, if he failed to crush the buzz and Carter Group’s stock recovered, their massive short positions would get wiped out instantly.

Jeremy had backed himself into a corner where he had no choice but to step in.

As his self–righteous declaration echoed, the online chat erupted into roaring applause.

Trolls hailed Jeremy as a righteous crusader, crowning him the most principled scientist of modern times!

As the delegation strode onto the showroom floor, Eugene watched them approach with cold detachment.

Kevin was fuming in his seat, itching to tear off Jeremy’s smug mask, but Isabella’s gentle touch anchored him in place.

Chapter 255 Walking into the Trap

Grandpa Kevin, just sit back and enjoy the show. Carter Group’s technology is bulletproof”

If Kevin stood up to challenge Jerenry now, it would give Audrey and Powell Group the perfect scapegoat to redirect public scrutiny,

Smearing Carter Group with allegations of state–sponsored collusion would only muddy the waters.

Besides, Isabella wanted to watch Adrian’s empire crumble with her own eyes.

To make them watch everything they built collapse piece by piece–that was true justice, wasn’t it?

Isabella remained serene, coaxing Kevin’s fiery temper down by several notches.

Sitting beside them, Steven suppressed his own irritation and chimed in, “You promised you were only here to observe. Jumping into the ring with him just gives that clown free clout.

“Jeremy couldn’t even score a meeting with you at the National Research Center last time, and now he gets to debate you? He wishes!

“No rush. We’ll settle our accounts with them later. For now, let’s just watch Carter Group tear them apart.”

Steven gave Isabella an appreciative glance as he finished speaking.

Sharp, fearless, and remarkably poised for her age.

To stay this level–headed under pressure and weigh the bigger picture so clearly was rare.

Anyone else would have lost their temper at Jeremy’s brazen arrogance.

Yet she even knew how to keep Kevin grounded.

Steven glanced at the old researcher with a knowing smile.

The old man was stubborn as a mule, and very few souls could ever talk him down.

He clearly had a massive soft spot for the young woman.

Acknowledging Steven’s reasoning, Kevin took a deep breath and let the two of them cool his boiling

temper.

Nothing infuriated him more than charlatans using science as a political weapon to slander others!
