Chapter 594
Taunting Johnny was like a breeze for Jack. However, he realized that even his hand that was holding onto the microphone was shaking as he met Vinson’s gaze.
Hence, Jack had no choice but to force himself to look away.
He finally regained his composure after averting his gaze.
Then, Jack gulped and forced himself to calm down.
After taking a deep breath, he spoke up without looking Vinson in the eye. “This isn’t fake news. But Mr. Nightshire, are you threatening me in front of the public? If anything were to happen to me after I leave, you will be the prime suspect.”
Johnny jumped to his feet. “You…”
“Johnny!” Vinson gave Johnny a look, and the latter sat back down.
Unfazed by Jack’s admonishment, Vinson replied flatly, “You’ve misunderstood me. I’m not that free to take care of such meticulous matters. I’m just wondering if you know how much money you’re going to be fined for spreading rumors about people’s death and making false statements about us creating videos to harm others.”
Jack gritted his teeth and said, “Well, I don’t know about that, so you should direct that question to a lawyer! From what I’ve heard, the patient was already in critical condition when he was admitted. It’s all your fault that
he’s on the verge of death. I thought you wanted to apologize and compensate your fellow consumers through this press conference, but it looks like I’m wrong. Mr. Nightshire, we are utterly disappointed with you and your company.”
The rest of the reporters, whom Jack paid to attend the press conference, chimed in.
“We will help you sue Nightshire Group if anything were to happen to you, Jack.”
“Mr. Nightshire, you must apologize to all the victims and compensate for their loss!”
“Jack, you have my full support! We will deal with the consequences together. But first, Mr. Nightshire, Nightshire Group must take full responsibility for everything that has happened.”
Vinson wasn’t at all affected by their remarks as he remained calm and collected.
Just then, Carter entered from the side door and nodded at him.
Vinson nodded and turned to face the media. “Looks like everyone here is on Jack’s side. Well then, please don’t shy away from the legal consequences when the time comes. Everything you said here has been recorded. Is there anyone else on his side? Please raise your hand so that I don’t miss out on any of you.”
The moment Vinson stated that, some of the media
personnel lowered their heads upon his words, while others averted their gaze as if they have absolutely nothing to do with Jack.
“Great. It’s just those few then.” After that, Vinson turned to face Rayson and asked, “Have you noted them down?”
Rayson nodded vigorously.
“Yes, Mr. Nightshire.”
Jack felt rather uneasy all of a sudden.
Are things about to take a turn? That’s not possible, right?
How could all the others who felt different levels of discomfort online be an accident even if this one is?
That’s definitely impossible!
Upon that thought, Jack spoke through gritted teeth. “Mr. Nightshire, why don’t you show us your sincerity so that we can forgive you instead of threatening us?”
The viewers who were watching the live broadcast and the crowd standing outside watching the press conference from Jadeborough Hotel’s big screen turned livid.
“How dare Vinson threaten the reporters at a time like this? Is he crazy?”
“Nightshire Group will be done for sooner or later with someone like him around.”
