Chapter 459 Retaliation for Retribution!
Recently Kelly Group flourished
Martin Kelly was a typical businessman who would do everything to achieve his goals
Since his daughter married August, he got a lot of conveniences, either openly looking for resources, connections, and
projects from August, or secretly making money
Under the banner of Lion Group, he sought cooperation and completed many goals For these actions of his, August turned a blind eye Coupled with the recent turmoil in the Lion group, he had no time and energy to think about the Kelly Group
Martin took advantage of this opportunity to quickly create Kelly's fashion brand in an attempt to get a piece of the pie from
Lion Group's brands in the Austos market
Now, he held another so-called ribbon cutting ceremony and invited August several times who finally agreed to hold it at the entrance of their first offline store in Austos City
August attended, so naturally, Jeanne would also want to go
Early in the morning, she went to the styling studio She did her hairstyle for three hours, put on makeup for two hours, and attended the event in a long gown and jewels She looked like a female star
After all, August accompanied her to attend the ribbon cutting ceremony at her parents house. She was courageous in front of the media.
At this moment, her nervousness and anxiety caused by the accident a few days ago dissipated. She was too immersed in excitement She arrived on time and accompanied August to appear in front of the crowd and the media
Many people came to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony Many of them came because of August In addition, the ceremony was held in the open space outside the store, which attracted many people to watch
Along the way, she greeted many influential people one after another, and the atmosphere at the scene became hotter and hotter Martin was in high spirits. He did his best to greet everyone
Some media reporters circled to take pictures and record every moment
Five minutes before the ribbon-cutting ceremony, a middle-aged woman in ragged clothes suddenly rushed into the crowd She threw herself at Martin's feet, grabbed his trousers with both hands, and shouted, "Mr. Kelly! Give me justice!” The woman who broke in surprised everyone. Martin frowned and subconsciously took two steps back. He opened his mouth to reprimand the woman coldly when he remembered the crowd and the media beside him. He was left with no choice but to suppress his discomfort immediately.
He lowered his voice a little and asked, "Who are you? Did you come here to make trouble?"
As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at the security guards on the side and gestured with his eyes The security immediately squeezed into the crowd, trying to pull the woman away.
The woman struggled hard and shouted again, "Mr. Kelly! Your son killed my son! He hit him with a car! You have to give me justice! Give me justice!”
Her words were like a big stone being thrown into the lake. With a loud "bang", it caused thousands of ripples.
When everyone around him heard this, their complexions changed and Jeanne's face turned pale. August stood aside. He looked calm, but looking closely his face was starting to dim.
"What nonsense are you talking about?” Martin paled in shock, and immediately called the security guard, "Security guard, take this lunatic away!"
The woman's eyes flushed with unknown emotion and she screamed, "I'm not crazy! Your son killed my son with a car half a year ago! He paid me a sum of money and sent me away! He drove me out of Austos! I've been running around since then and it's been so long since I came back. I had a hard time finding you! You must give me an explanation”
For a moment, the scene became even more chaotic. The media nearby frantically pressed the shutter in their camera to record everything at this moment!
Now that such big news was revealed at Kelly's ribbon-cutting ceremony, it could be said that every reporter became more alive
Merlin's body trembled in anger as he shouted coldly, "Nonsense! Take this lunatic away from me quickly! Otherwise, call the police1
Two secunty guards rushed up to each side of the woman as they tried to restrain her However, the woman struggled
continuously She stretched out her hand with red eyes, and pointed at Martin, "Martin' You have no heart! None of you in the Kelly family are good"
As she spoke, she pointed to Jeanne who was still stunned beside her, "And you Jeanne! How many people have you and the Kelly Group harmed? Don't you know? Those souls will hunt you! It's up to you! Heaven will punish you!"
The two security guards held her arms and dragged her away The woman's voice was so sharp that her words became distorted. The misery and sadness in her voice pierced people's hearts
Jeanne stood there. Her body went stiff as she felt cold at that moment. Her face became as white as paper
Lucia stood at the back of the crowd while wearing a black dress as she got a vivid view of Jeanne's face
Sure enough, Jeanne was still scared
If she wasn't guilty of anything, why would she be afraid like that?
Before, she accidentally heard that Merlin had killed someone and used his power to cover it up Three days ago, she suddenly remembered this, so she asked Paul to send someone to find the relatives of the victim They specially arranged for her to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony and make a scene.
One reason was to test Jeanne, and the other was to teach her a lesson Even if the car accident mentioned by the woman had nothing to do with Jeanne, this ticked her off
But now, looking at Jeanne's face, things were not as simple as she thought Lucia was almost certain that the car accident had something to do with her!
Thinking of this, Lucia's heart ached even more and she clenched her fist in hatred
At this moment, she felt a gaze from her side Lucia frowned slightly, and when she raised her head, she met a man's deep eyes
August crossed the crowd and looked straight at her. The eyes of the two of them met in mid-air, both feeling an unexplainable emotion.
Lucia's heart tightened as she took a deep breath before she looked away with feigned composure and took a step to the side
Because of the chaos that happened, Martin's face became even scarier
If something like this happened at the ribbon-cutting ceremony of their brand, they would lose face Martin picked up the microphone next to him, smiled awkwardly, and apologized, "I'm sorry I'm for letting you all see this joke..."
Jeanne stood aside while still in a state of confusion. The words spoken by the woman earlier were still lingering in her ears, "Heave will punish you!"
Thinking of the car accident a few days ago, she became scared. She had asked her subordinates to investigate secretly the status of the case. She learned that Paula was still in the central hospital. After the operation, there was no sign of her waking up. The situation was not optimistic..
She thought about it and a cold wind touched her spine. She was scared
“Jeanne”
Hearing August's voice, she slowly returned to her senses.
She raised her eyes in panic and asked, "What?"
August frowned slightly, stared at her, and confusingly asked, "What's wrong with you?"
“I'm fine" She shook her head, forced a smile, and added, "I'm going to the bathroom."
After saying that, she turned around and left the chaotic event.
When she arrived in the bathroom, she turned on the tap and washed her hands quickly. The cold water flowed over her sweaty palms, which made her feel a bit awake.
She raised her head inadvertently, and suddenly saw another figure in the mirror. Her body shook violently, and she screamed in fright, “Ahi”
Lucia folded her arms around her chest, leaned against the door frame of the bathroom with no expression, and stared at her coldly
