Anthony's words also reminded Karen of this.
Even though she was dissatisfied, she said to him, "Let's get started, then. Also, make sure to keep a record of those media outlets that didn't show up. From now on, the Mallory family won't be cooperating with them."
Anthony thought to himself that the Mallory family was not under Karen's control. Ever since she fell out with Percy, Karen had practically no say in the Mallory family affairs.
Therefore, even if Karen kept a record, there was not much she could do to those media outlets.
"Yes, Madam," answered Anthony as he took the microphone and began to host the press conference.
The content of the press conference was straightforward. It was just for Karen to proclaim her innocence and for Silas to come out and clarify a certain matter.
Anthony held the microphone and greeted, "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for taking the time to attend Madam Mallory, also known as Ms. Karen’s, press conference.
“This conference aims to clarify a certain issue that has been circulating online recently regarding Ms. Karen's past. These claims were fabricated by malicious individuals, and in fact, there's no truth to them.
"Today, we've invited the person involved in the video release, Mr. Silas Gray, to explain the situation to you all..."
Before he could finish his words, a reporter raised her hand, trying to interrupt him.
Anthony paused for a moment and then asked the reporter, "Yes? What's your question?"
"I have a question. So, do you mean Ms. Karen's implication is that everything regarding this matter is false?" the reporter asked directly. She was not particularly interested in clarifications. She was just following her editor's assignment.
In fact, their editor also deemed this piece of news unworthy of coverage. However, since it involved the Mallory family and they received an invitation, they dared not offend the Mallory family. Hence, the media outlet sent the reporter over.
"Well..." Anthony was about to respond when the reporter continued, "Could we trouble Ms. Karen to answer this question?"
Karen's expression darkened. The reporters present probably knew that she had been ordered by Old Master Mallory to move out. Thus, their presence here was merely perfunctory.
She had fallen out of favor with the Mallory family, and they did not regard her highly either.
Karen knew that if she severed ties with the Mallory family, she would be nothing.
She reluctantly took the microphone from the side. Even though she was resentful, she dared not offend the reporters. Their pens could paint her in the most detestable light.
Therefore, she dared not act recklessly.
"I can assure you that all those claims are false. Mr. Gray and I knew each other before, but it was merely an acquaintanceship. There was no relationship as he described.
"He was misled by certain people into saying those things to the reporters. Today, I'm here to clarify this matter," explained Karen.
"If they're false, why didn't you clarify them from the beginning? Why choose to clarify them only now?" continued the reporter, raising the most significant doubt in everyone's minds.
Karen looked at the reporter who was persistently challenging her. Was this reporter trying to slowly undermine what she had just said?
Did she really invite this reporter herself?
Karen glanced at the reporter. There was no media logo displayed next to her, and she was quite a distance away. She could not discern which media company this reporter belonged to from her press pass.
"Mr. Gray was deliberately misled and kept avoiding contact. It took a considerable effort for me to locate him and convince him to reveal the truth to the reporters," replied Karen.
"Ms. Karen, you've been insisting that the previous reports were all fabricated by malicious individuals. Can you tell us who these individuals are? Do you have any evidence?" the reporter persisted.
