Everyone looked at Grace and was shocked by her sudden angry shout.
Grace was also frightened by her own voice.
Lilian frowned and shook her head as if telling Grace not to tell Heinz about the truth.
Grace sensed and understood the difficulties in Lilians gaze, but the chief editor already said that Lilian was not the one who took the photos.
Grace didn't want Lilian to be the scapegoat alone. She should be courageous enough to take the blame.
"Mr. Jones." Grace said in a low voice, "You don't have the right to take Miss Ross away. Aren't you ignoring the law by taking people away like this?"
Heinz narrowed his eyes and looked at Grace indifferently.
Lester and the bodyguards were a little shocked. No one had dared to talk to the president like this before, except Grace. She was so bold.
"Grace, shut up!" Chen immediately stepped forward and bowed to Heinz. "Mr. Jones, please ignore the new staff. She is young and ignorant."
"Director Chen, I'm new here, but Mr. Jones can't take Miss Ross away today." Grace continued, "We are in the news industry, it's our job to publish news. If everyone behaves like Mr. Jones, we will have nothing to report! Mr. Jones, you can't stop us from publishing news like this."
The others all nodded their heads in agreement with Grace's statement.
However, Heinz's coldly gaze across the room and no one in the private room dares to speak anymore.
Grace said again, "If you think we're wrong and it doesn't conform to the facts, you can follow the legal procedure instead of taking her away in private."
"What if I insist?" Heinz looked at Grace expressionlessly.
Grace gasped and said steadily. "Then we will call the police."
"Who do you think you are?" Heinz asked sarcastically.
Grace was choked
Chen then said, "Mr. Jones, it's really a misunderstanding. Can you..."
"Take her away." Heinz interrupted Chen, "Lester."
