Chapter 289 : Acid bubbling
“I know that many of you want the manuscript about me to go out without a hitch.” As soon as Lindsey opened her mouth, she singled out the problem directly. “I also know that many of you, want to get the headline about me.”
The voices at the bottom gradually stopped, and everyone looked at her unspokenly.
Lindsey glanced at Randy and Karen beside her and spoke again, “Today, I am not apologizing for this, because you are the ones who should apologize!”
The voice was loud and clear, and thunder quickly spread throughout the venue. An emotional reporter stood out and aggressively asked, “Who are we to apologize?
The words were echoed by people around her, and Lindsey’s gaze was full of sarcasm.
Lindsey didn’t care about this, she pursed her lips and slowly smiled away. “Reporting the truth in the news? If I remember correctly, the Reporter Ashbur who said this, you used the headline in this report: the tragic death of a sick child, when the black curtain of Hui Ai charity is uncovered.”
After a pause, Lindsey picked up where she left off. “Then can I also send a report, Reporter Ashbur’s daughter died tragically in the hospital, where is the hospital public morality?”
This time the bottom became silent, no one dared to speak out again.
Lindsey snorted coldly and continued, “This is what you call the truth in journalism! The privacy and human rights that you shout every day, how come no one respects it when it comes to others?”
Reporter Ashbur lost a lot of face, his face red with anger and neck thick, continued to ask: “Then you use your authority to block news reports without permission, and how to explain!
“So you’re justified in spreading rumors, huh?” Lindsey narrowed his eyes and looked at him sternly. “Do you want me to recite the law of the land to you?”
The reporters at the scene probably didn’t expect that the conference, which was originally prepared to make Hui Ai unable to wash away the black spot, would end up like this.
What everyone didn’t expect was that Lindsey, after saying these words, actually named all the reporters involved in the story and handed them over to the Director of the News Management Division who appeared at the end.
The most frightening thing is that the director actually looked into the camera and said that he would immediately revoke the credentials of these people and ban them from entering the industry for life, and could not be certified in Weibo.
The whole meeting was not an explosion, but a silence, the crowd did not dare to come out of the atmosphere.
Lindsey politely thanked the director, put down the microphone, smiled at Randy and elegantly walked off the podium.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
The conference ended with the Director’s speech and summary. Larissa, who was completely stunned, found Lindsey and gave a breathless thumbs up.
Even Edward was stunned, not expecting Lindsey to be handled with such an iron fist, not to mention the Director of the News Management Division, who actually came to the venue in person without any notice.
Coming backstage, Lindsey politely thanked everyone and finally came to Randy and politely extended her hand. “Thank you, Randy, and thank you for inviting your friends.”
“You’re welcome.” Randy raised an eyebrow, glanced sideways at Karen, and added, “Let me borrow someone from you.”
Lindsey blinked and burst out laughing abruptly. “Whatever you want, for as long as you want, and it’s okay if you don’t have to return it.”
“Okay.” Randy also smiled, followed by an arm outstretched, dragging Karen out of the backstage.
Larissa looked at the scene with astonishment and once again gave a thumbs up. “Karen has earned it …”
Lindsey shook her head and laughed, followed Edward and sent the leaders away and walked backstage again.
Larissa was directing the staff to put together a press release, and when she saw them enter, a tired smile appeared on her face. “Where to go for dinner tonight, seeing those cynical reporters being cleaned up makes me want to eat more meat to celebrate.”
“Where to?” Lindsey smiled and walked over to her, reaching for her shoulder and looking up at Edward with her eyes. “You decide.”
“I’ll ask Lily,” Edward said, scratching his head awkwardly. “We’ll go wherever she says we’re going.”
“Aigoo, this wife control is also a disease.” Larissa joked, pulling Lindsey aside and gossiping, asking her what was going on with Randy and Karen.
“Probably Karen slept with someone and then didn’t want to be responsible.” Lindsey spread her hands and looked at her. “That’s all I know.”
Larissa looked like she wasn’t lying and couldn’t help but stammer. “Tsk … people can’t be seen, our Miss Karen is actually so spontaneous at heart.”
“Be careful she hears it every day with you anxious.” Lindsey laughed, looking at the already sorted almost, and everyone out backstage.
Lindsey had a good appetite and her stomach was rounded by the end of the meal.
Hector and Larissa went back to the old house while Lindsey was escorted by the security guards to Nine Lakes Mountain.
On the way, she received a call from Bruce, saying that he saw the news of the launch and asked her not to be angry.
“I’m not mad, those who started the rumors have been punished anyway, so whoever wants to target Hui Ai in the future will have to weigh in.” Lindsey lazily leaned back in her chair and smiled. “How about it, training is not bitter.”
“Training is not bitter, want you want bitter.” Bruce’s tone was ambiguous. “Do you want me.”
Lindsey couldn’t help but roll her eyes and tease him relentlessly. “Not even twenty-four hours apart, aren’t you afraid I’ll tell grandpa that you don’t care about class and want to go home every day.”
“Okay, I’ll try not to think about it.” Bruce said so with his mouth, but his face was clearly wearing a smile. “By the way Warren said you are getting less and less gentle.”
I wasn’t gentle in the first place … Lindsey bellyached and asked, “What else did Warren say.”
Bruce laughed. “He said you’re like a hedgehog when you’re on stage.”
“Hedgehogs are hedgehogs.” Lindsey bristled and hung up the phone after talking to him some more.
It was 9:00 p. m. when the car entered Nine Lakes and I thought Old Mr. Grant had gone to bed, but the lights were still on in the living room and the sound of voices talking was heard during that time.
Lindsey yawned, raised her hand and knocked on the door, and gently pushed it open. “Grandpa.”
“Hello Mrs. Mr. Grant.” Hailie stood up with a big smile. “I’ve come to see Old Mr. Grant for some advice.”
“Oh, well, you guys keep talking.” Lindsey suppressed her displeasure and nodded at Old Mr. Grant with a smile. “I’m going to go upstairs first.”
Old Mr. Grant smiled back and his eyes fell back on Hailie, continuing the conversation he had just had.
The conversation went on until after ten o’clock in the night, when Old Mr. Grant ordered Jack to send the guests away.
Lindsey couldn’t sleep, lying in bed with her eyes open listening to the commotion downstairs, a sense of crisis vaguely emerged in her mind.
Hailie is a doctor of aerospace dynamics, in Old Mr. Grant’s view, it is a technical soldier, more important than the role of officers and generals.
She can come up today, which means Old Mr. Grant is already know this person, and also good relationship.
Lindsey drifted off to sleep in the middle of her thoughts.
After Hailie appeared once, she appeared three nights in a row, and Lindsey also lost sleep for three nights in a row.
On Thursday, Lindsey arrived at the Academy with a bunch of dark circles on her cheeks.
Lindsey sat down at her place, and the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, so she called Larissa and asked her to come out for lunch.
Larissa has been filming at a suburban movie set recently, but she happened to be back in town today to attend a business event, so she hung up when she arrived.
Lindsey yawned a lot and almost lost her concentration several times during the class. When she left the classroom, she was about to go downstairs when Clyde appeared out of nowhere with a happy face and offered to take her to lunch.
“I already have a date with a friend, sorry.” Lindsey crossed over in a detached manner and lifted her feet towards the stairs. “Mr. Clyde can try to get a date with someone else.”
Clyde had never lived in H, so he had no idea of the underlying meaning of Lindsey’s words and took them literally, and was a little upset then. “I just want to ask you out to dinner, why do you want me to ask someone else out.”
Lindsey, annoyed by his nonsensical questions, was so angry that she quickened her pace and darted downstairs.
Seeing this, Clyde immediately came up after her, with an eager attitude, asking her to explain why she said what she did.
“I’m sorry, I mean, I already have an appointment with a friend, so I won’t accept your your invitation.” Lindsey stopped in her tracks and looked at him with indifferent eyes. “I didn’t mean anything else.”
Clyde had already made a promise to his brother that he would Lindsey to meet him, and made up his mind to rely on her. “It doesn’t matter, I don’t mind dining with your friends.”
“But I do mind that you want to interrupt our party!” Lindsey was in a trance with a sense of powerlessness against the bull. “Please move out of the way.”
“Lindsey, please give me a chance.” Clyde was clearly not doing it. “Just once.”
“Not even half a time.” Lindsey flamed out and avoided him, quickly entering the car from the other side.
Giving the guard an address, Lindsey leaned back in her seat with a heavy heart and closed her eyes for a nap.
Fiona said that when you’re pregnant, you tend to get cranky, and she didn’t believe her at first. This is really, the thought of Hailie want to shake her awake and tell her to go find another man, not to focus on Bruce.
Of course, she just thought about it, not really dare to do anything to Hailie.
It is not easy for the country to train out a PhD like this, she is sour to sour, reason is still there.
When she arrived at the promised restaurant, Lindsey got out of the car, asked where Larissa was, and sulked all the way in, not noticing that Clyde had followed her.
As soon as Lindsey saw Larissa, she sat down next to her, sullen and pouting. “Larissa, do you think Bruce would like someone else?”
“Tsk …” Larissa moved to help her up and couldn’t help but laugh, “Are you okay to suspect that he would like someone else.”
Lindsey laughed bitterly and informed Hailie of the situation with a depressed look. “I don’t think I have any advantage at all anymore, Old Mr. Grant is so happy to see her every time he sees her.”
“Not so much, your Old Mr. Grant just admires her, he won’t let Bruce change.” Larissa was shocked, thinking that this Hailie was really something.
Lindsey’s head was in a tizzy and she fell back on Larissa. “I can’t stand it, I can’t wait to throw her out every time.”
“Have you talked to Bruce yet.” Larissa couldn’t help but feel distressed to see her like this. “If you can’t say it, I’ll say it for you.”
