The True Heiress: Legend Mode novel Chapter 298

Harrison's voice was full of authority. His imposing presence forced the reporters below to think twice before asking their questions. No matter what, the Corrington family was still the top family in Kingsland.

"It's regarding the recent events online. I do not deny my past actions."

A bold reporter stood up. "So, Mr. Corrington, did you truly use your wealth to buy Rhiannon's way into a top university? What do you have to say in response to the public's intense backlash? Is it really as they say, that money allows you to do whatever you please? Is 'knowledge changes destiny' just a joke to you?"

The barrage of questions was so aggressive that even Gwendolyn felt overwhelmed just listening.

Harrison sat upright, his face filled with undeniable guilt. Lowering his eyes, he said, "Knowledge changes destiny is true. The ones at fault are us, the parents who failed to guide our child correctly. When her grades were poor, we should have understood the meaning of doing what was within her capabilities. But we didn't, and that led to today's situation. We acted recklessly and disrupted the social order, and for that, we take full responsibility."

His sincere apology left little room for criticism, and the reporters below racked their brains for the questions the public wanted answered.

Gwendolyn's gentle voice rang out. "The Corrington family will donate ten percent of our annual income to support outstanding students in need. I know making this decision only after such an incident makes us look hypocritical, but this is the best way we could think of to give everyone a proper resolution."

Some people listening couldn't help but gasp in shock.

The Corrington family was a massive conglomerate. Their monthly income was astronomical, let alone ten percent of their annual income!

That was an unbelievable amount of money!

They were really bleeding themselves dry for this.

While everyone was still caught up in shock and discussion, someone suddenly stood up from the crowd and demanded loudly, "Since that is the case with Rhiannon, I'd like to ask if your biological daughter, Juno Mercer, experienced the exact same situation—specifically, using massive wealth to buy her way into Northbridge.

Are these allegations true?"

The final question carried immense weight, laced with overwhelming hostility and pressure.

The question caught both Harrison and Gwendolyn off guard.
