Chapter 182: Chapter 182: All Are Ill-Fated Sinners (Part 2)
Everyone heard, in fact, they all wanted to say, deceiving the public is something they not only have done but have done quite smoothly.
Moreover, this time it wasn’t deception at all; there was evidence and truth, okay?
"What does Eldest Miss North mean by this? Want to cover up the truth of the matter? Or manipulate public opinion? If so, please forgive us, as reporters, we cannot agree. Our duty is to report the truth for everyone to know! Eldest Miss North, goodbye!"
After speaking, the reporters were about to leave.
Raina North’s expression was cold: "Did I let you go?"
As soon as the words fell, the bodyguards rushed out from the corners, blocking the reporters’ way.
This action angered the reporters.
They said angrily, "Eldest Miss North, what do you mean by this? Do you want to detain us?"
"Eldest Miss North, you’d better be sensible and let them withdraw, otherwise, don’t blame us for reporting this as well. Can you bear the consequences when the time comes?"
"Or does Eldest Miss North think she already has the qualifications to order us?"
"She doesn’t have them, but what about me? Do I have them?" a cold voice suddenly sounded.
The originally chatty reporters suddenly shut up, as the person who spoke was Elias Hawthorne.
They suddenly realized that although this Eldest Miss North was unknown before, she is now married, and she is Elias Hawthorne’s wife, the head mistress of the Hawthorne Family.
Raina North turned to look at Elias Hawthorne and said, "This matter is purely a misunderstanding, I kindly ask everyone to hand over the film. I think no one here would bear to harm an innocent girl, right."
When Raina North said the last sentence, her tone was very calm, yet it was inexplicably ironic.
Brenda Adler’s face couldn’t help but twitch, yet she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
The reporters unwillingly held onto such a big news: "Mrs. Hawthorne, you’re being too domineering, aren’t you?" "I think it’s quite appropriate."
The reporters: "..."
"Mrs. Hawthorne..."
The reporters wanted to further contest, but Raina North was already completely impatient, she turned to look at Elias Hawthorne: "Elias Hawthorne, I truly doubt your ability, do you measure up?"
Elias Hawthorne: "..."
Reporters: "..." Mrs. Hawthorne, do you really think it’s okay to openly sow discord like this?
Raina North glanced at Elias Hawthorne, her eyebrows slightly raised.
"..." Elias Hawthorne took a breath and said lightly, "Since my wife has spoken, I hope everyone will give me this face. But if everyone insists on not giving me, Elias Hawthorne, face, that’s fine. However, don’t blame me, Elias Hawthorne, for not showing mercy in the future. Those who dare to spread rumors affecting my wife’s reputation are my enemies. I hope everyone is well aware."
Threats.
These are blatant threats.
Yet, no one dared to express a hint of discontent. They might not take Raina North or the North Family seriously, but Elias Hawthorne is not someone they can afford to offend.
However, this is unavoidable, as Raina North is tied to the North Family.
Even though she is married, she is still a daughter of the North Family. If this matter gets out, then Claire North surely won’t have a bright future, and Raina North’s reputation will be tarnished as well.
If Raina North’s reputation is damaged, Elias Hawthorne as her husband wouldn’t fare well either, and neither Elias Hawthorne nor the Hawthorne Family would permit such a thing to happen.
The reporters knew that today, no matter what, it won’t be possible to take this film away. They could only voluntarily hand over the film to the bodyguards.
Some guests who had taken pictures also voluntarily deleted the photos from their phones.
Brenda Adler finally took a long breath of relief upon seeing this scene.
