Chapter 235 Tension
Joseph got up and asked Deborah, “Shall we head back to the office now?”
Deborah nodded, “Yes, I’ve arranged for a caretaker to take care of Simone.”
Joseph then led her toward the elevator at the end of the corridor.
He gestured to Evelyn on the side, “Please continue.”
During that time at Moxley Manor for Christmas, Evelyn was quite easygoing, which was her usual personality.
But when it comes to work, she has always been serious and professional when reporting to Joseph.
She walked slightly behind Joseph and continued, “The surveillance video that was uploaded online has been edited.
The content displayed shows that you hit Datnian. There is also a photo of you talking to Ms. Simone Winster, captured in a side profile shot.
The online video description says that you’ve fallen for Ms. Winster, and her husband, furious, comes to confront you. However, you use your power to bully and beat him up.”
Joseph glanced at her, and Evelyn immediately lowered her voice to explain, “This is the online description, it’s what the video uploader said.”
She didn’t dare to speak ill of Joseph. Fearing that he wouldn’t believe her, so, she took out her phone, opened the news, and showed it to Joseph.
Joseph came over and casually flipped through the phone.
Yesterday morning, Damian caused quite a scene outside the company, boasting that he had taken a photo of Joseph and Simone chatting intimately.
This photo on the internet must be the one that Damian brought out.
However, Joseph thought for a moment that the person who posted these on the internet for everyone to see probably
wasn’t Damian.
At this moment, Damian was still at the police station. After arriving there, he had been under surveillance and could no longer casually use his phone.
Behind all this, there was probably someone else who just got that photo from Damian, intending to frame him.
Joseph quickly thought of something, “There’s a surveillance camera at the company entrance, it should have captured the outside. Let’s check the complete surveillance footage.”
Evelyn responded, “I checked this morning, and one of the relevant security cameras was damaged. However, there was another hidden camera that captured the entire incident.”
Joseph saw her hesitate to speak and quickly understood what she meant.
He glanced at her, “What’s on your mind? Go ahead and say it.”
Evelyn finally dared to speak up, “I think, since the other party has the ability to sabotage the surveillance at Jingron Design’s entrance, they must have quite a significant background.
On the surface, it seems like Damian’s revenge, but in reality, it probably isn’t. Instead, let’s use this opportunity to create some buzz for Jingron. It just so happens that recently, due to the pressure from the Black Group, Jingron’s stock price has experienced a slight decline.”
Chandler passed away, and Joseph stood up for Deborah, leading to a direct falling out with the Black family.
Gerald was dissatisfied, and Jane engaged in even more pillow talk
Gerald was waiting for Joseph to return to the Black Group, waiting for him to admit his mistake. With Jane’s instigation, Gerald had recently started putting pressure on Jingron.
Although Jingron had become more powerful now, it was not someone Gerald can easily deal with.
However, when the Black Group takes action, it’s impossible for it to have no impact on Jingron.
Joseph nodded thoughtfully, “Hmm.”
Evelyn continued, “When the hype reaches its peak, we’ll release the entire video captured by the hidden camera for
everyone to see.
The surveillance system has just been fixed, and by then, the negative public opinion will be suppressed. As for Jingron’s popularity, it has already risen. If all goes well, the person who is truly pulling the strings behind the scenes
can also be found out.”
The person behind it all, Joseph could actually make a rough guess.
The one with the greatest potential would have to be Jane.
With her skills, it was entirely possible for her to secretly sabotage a surveillance system at Jingron Design.
But she surely didn’t know that outside Jingron Design, there was a hidden camera that almost none of the company employees were aware of.
Initially, Joseph installed the security camera out of concern that Deborah might encounter trouble and leave the company. If the surveillance were to be damaged, it would make it difficult for him to find her.
Joseph promptly replied, “Alright, I’ll do as you wish.”
Evelyn felt secretly delighted when her idea was accepted, and a sense of accomplishment welled up within her.
She immediately nodded, “Alright, Mr. Black.”
After leaving the hospital, Joseph hurried back to the company for a meeting.
After instructing Evelyn to take Deborah to Jingron Design, he drove away first.
As soon as Evelyn saw Joseph leave, she instinctively breathed a sigh of relief.
Deborah couldn’t help but laugh as she looked at her, “You really don’t have to be so dramatic.”
Evelyn patted her chest and said, “I get nervous as soon as I see your man.”
Deborah couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time, “Why does what you’re saying sound so strange?”
Evelyn walked around to the driver’s side and got in the car, while Deborah opened the passenger door and climbed in.
A text message came in on the phone. Deborah opened it, and it was from Adrian.
[Is everything going smoothly? When will you return to Richmond, and when will you move the company to Richmond?]
Deborah replied, [At least a week later, Joseph said there are still some formalities to be completed.]
Over there, someone replied, [I see.]
