Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

After that, Fade turned to Jordence and said, "Mr. Jordence, you can tell me the truth now!" Jordence paused before nodding his head hurriedly. "Yes, I'll tell you immediately." "Speak!" Fade ordered.

Jordence's expression darkened as he began, "Here's the thing..."

As he started speaking, the guests started calming down. Some of them also took out their phones and started recording.

Some of the reporters even got out their cameras to broadcast everything live.

"Half a year ago, Maeryn and her people came to look for me, and they asked my opinions about the world's martial arts popularity. Back then, I was worried about being expelled from the previous martial arts club, so I discussed it with them."

"After our conversation, Maeryn said that they were willing to fund us for the development of a brand new martial arts school, allowing me to be the dean and carry forward the teaching of martial arts. I didn't take it seriously at that time, I just regarded them as frauds." "However, in less than three days, they transferred the first batch of funds to my account. It wasn't until then that I realized that they were legitimate, and that they must've been very rich."

"Thus, I agreed to their request and set up Duke Martial Arts Academy together with them. The academy was successfully set up in three months, and it is the very one that everyone is looking at right now."

"After the successful development of the academy, they spread the news far and wide with their influence. In addition, a handful of famous martial artists had been recruited, so many students came to sign up."

"Duke Martial Arts Academy was able to recruit students quickly. They even issued an advertisement that students can advance to the next realm within three months." "Although I wasn't that strong, I still have many years of experience in a martial arts school. When I saw the advertisement back then, I was a little worried that they were exaggerating. After all, even a genius would need at least half a year or even a year to advance to a higher realm. Three months was practically impossible."

"Therefore, I expressed my thoughts to the board of directors and reminded them to change the advertisement. However, Maeryn insisted that it was not false advertisement but instead, a true fact."

"In the beginning, I thought they were lying, but soon after, they allowed a group of students to test out the new drug that they were researching. The students were improving at an incredible speed. Faced with the evidence, I chose to believe them." "Then, the academy decided to recruit students on a large scale and continued to promote the use of the said drug."

"Finally, three months had passed. It was time for the first batch of students to advance to the next realm. The majority of the students succeeded in doing so."

"I was very excited and happy with the results. I was ready to expand the academy further and recruit more students. I was positive that our academy would develop into one of the top acclaimed academy in Micovia, or even the world."

As he spoke of this, Jordence paused, glancing at all the other guests.

Fade urged him, "Go on!"

Jordence glanced at him as his expression changed, and he lowered his voice. "However, problems started emerging just as I was getting my hopes high for this academy."

"The first batch of students who graduated from the academy began to experience various health problems. They were both mentally and physically weak, and they had very low blood oxygen levels. I've asked a professional doctor to treat them, but there was nothing that they could do."

"Therefore, I reported the matter to Maeryn, but she told me that she was already aware of it. There was no need to care about the students and I was to continue to recruit new students." "I couldn't understand her decision, so I pressed her for answers. Maeryn told me that the students would have to deal with it themselves, and all I had to do was play my part as the dean. If I refused to do so, they would replace me."

"I was not willing to leave, so I didn't press on any further. However, I continued to investigate this matter in secret. I was surprised to find that they had a bigger plan."

"That certain batch of students who suffered from health problems were taken away by Maeryn's people. No one knows where they are now, and there's no news of them. Besides using the drugs in the academy, there were also many underground societies outside of the academy that were selling the drugs."

"With that, the use of the drugs spread like wildfire. There were some individuals who initially wanted to expose the truth, but they were all stopped by someone like Maeryn. Those who brought up the side effects were also taken away by them. Just like the first batch of students, they disappeared."

"Up until today, if it hadn't been for you, Mr. Chen, I would have been controlled by them and wouldn't

velget

have been able to tell the truth. I did something wrong, and I'm not

asking for everyone to forgive me, but hope everyone can follow the law. I..."

Fade cut him off coldly, "Stop with your nonsense."

Jordence's words seemed sincere, but he was trying to make it seem like he was the good guy in the

story. He was pushing all the blame onto Maeryn and the others, thereby washing himself clean of the

wrongdoings.

Although Fade wasn't really clear about which part was the truth or which part was Jordence's attempt to defend himself, he didn't really care.

He had already guessed it, so he wasn't too surprised.

On the other hand, the guests all fell into shock as they burst into an uproar.

"How could this be!"

"Duke Martial Arts Academy had secretly distributed drugs with serious side effects to their students."

"Who's the mastermind behind Maeryn? A pharmaceutical company?"

"That's possible. Maybe it's a new experiment that they're researching."

"These b*stards, my son has just entered the academy. They deserve to die!"

"I only sent my daughter here because I heard of their advertisements."

Amidst the discussions, a group of freshmen who had just entered the hall were taken aback.

Yozell and the others, who were dressed as waiters, were dumbfounded at that moment as they kept mumbling to themselves.

"I-Is this really true?"

"Are we just experimental subjects?"

Just then, Thalia spoke up. "Brother Chen was right."

"He reminded me once on the plane, and before we entered the academy. He was looking out for me!"

Speaking of this, Thalia couldn't help but look at Yannis.

Yannis' expression was a little complicated.

She had originally assumed that Fade was done for when he faced Maeryn and Jordence. She regretted her decision for turning her back on Rowette for Fade. However, the ending was not what she had expected. Fade was right and she had made the right choice after all.

Yannis was left speechless by these sudden turn of events.
