The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1593

Chapter 1593

"I wonder how the Harper family could be so harsh on their maids? They're audacious enough to air such grievances in the public eye?"

"The term mistreated sounds harsh, but when you consider the power and influence the Harpers have, imagine what they could do to their maids if they wanted to?"

“Who could dare cross the Harper family?"

Indeed, everyone was no stranger to stories of the rich and powerful oppressing the less fortunate. Some spoke more realistically, though they were careful to avoid sensitive words. But such caution didn't quench the public's fervor. It was like when Damon had to withdraw his negative comments about Chloe. The more they tried to suppress, the more excited people became.b2 The topic of the Harpers using their wealth to oppress others lingered for a long time. The impact was immediate and noticeable. Whispers of unrest started making rounds in the stock market.

Robin was quick to act. Not long after Chloe's interview ended, he alerted the media. Half an hour later, a press conference was held at the entrance of Harper Group's headquarters to address the allegations of their mistreatment of maids.

Upon receiving the news, all reporters hurried to the site.

With a casual elegance, Robin stood on the steps, a faint smile showing on his face, "Thank you all for coming.

I've seen the news and I'm distressed by the allegations that we, the Harpers, have been oppressing our help.

We have employed them for many years and never have we heard such accusations of human rights violations.

Our management of our help has always been open and free. If we were indeed oppressive, it wouldn't have taken this long for the truth to appear. Moreover, we have no reason, or even the time, to pick on our help. So, I believe there must be some misunderstanding. As a matter of fact, just today, Ms. Summers barged into Harper's Mansion uninvited, took our help away, and even used force against our butler, which has greatly upset the old man. Before things are clarified, I will not pass judgement, and I hope everyone can be patient and understand what truly happened."

Robin's words stirred the reporters. Words like “barging into Harper's Mansion, and “using force against the Mansion's butler" were too conspicuous to ignore.

“What happened exactly?"

"How can we find out the truth?"

Facing the restless reporters, Robin smiled. He made a gesture, and Addie, masked and somewhat concealed, emerged from behind him. Sharp-eyed reporters started snapping photos even before Addie reached Robin's side.

Robin silently stepped aside.

Facing so many reporters for the first time, Addie's legs were shaking. After a while, she took a deep breath, and with trembling hands, removed her mask. Her beaten and swollen face was exposed to all the media present.

The reporters went into a frenzy, bombarding her with questions.
