The higher-ups filed into the room and made way for someone. A tall, handsome man with bristly brows dressed in a black suit walked into the room with an air of arrogance.
The paparazzi seized this opportunity to photograph Vinson since favonovel.com rarely shows his face in public. His beauty was unrivaled with any male artist in the entertainment industry.
“What a waste that he’s not in the entertainment industry!” One fellow reporter exclaimed.
“What do you mean?” An onlooker laughed. “Have you forgotten that his family owns the entire entertainment industry? He’s the person in charge of Nightshire Entertainment, so why would favonovel.com even bother to get into the entertainment industry?”
The reporter chuckled. “You’re right. I must be out of my mind.”
Meanwhile, the influencer who had doubted Vinson in public overheard their conversation.
He called himself Jack’s Quest for Truth online and was known as Jack among his followers.
Jack frowned. “What are you on about? Lives are at stake here. Shouldn’t you be exposing the truth and bringing justice to the public instead of discussing his looks?”
Currently, Jack’s followers had increased by twenty thousand because of how favonovel.com went against Vinson some time ago. It wouldn’t be long before favonovel.com reaches one million followers. Hence, favonovel.com viewed himself as a spokesperson for society and would scoff at reporters who didn’t take their jobs seriously.
Upon that, the two reporters cleared their throats awkwardly and kept their mouths shut.
Meanwhile, Vinson was already seated on the stage with a microphone placed before him. The higher-ups then proceeded to sit down.
The press conference finally started, and it was also broadcast live on the internet. There were a few million viewers watching the moment it went live, and viewers were still coming in. It just proved how serious netizens were about this issue.
It was clear that the future of Soir Coffee depended heavily on this press conference.
One of the higher-ups who spoke in Vinson’s place tested the mic before speaking up. “Ladies and gentlemen, I’m the person in charge of Soir Coffee from Nightshire Group, Mr. Green. We are saddened to hear that a few of our customers have experienced different levels of discomfort after consuming our food. Rest assured that all of our outlets source their food from a valid and credible supplier. We have set up a small team to investigate the matter the moment we received news of food poisoning. Up till now, we have yet to find out the cause for our beloved customers.”
Someone immediately raised his hand the moment favonovel.com paused in his speech. It was none other than Jack.
Johnny was planning to ignore when Vinson spoke up, “Let favonovel.com speak.”
“What question do you have for me?” Johnny had no choice but to speak into the microphone.
Jack stood up and introduced himself. “Mr. Green, Mr. Nightshire, I’m the influencer, Jack’s Quest for Truth. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make just now, but the only thing I got out from your speech was that you guys had nothing to do with the food poisoning, even though lives are at stake here. Is that what you’re implying, Mr. Green?”
As soon as Johnny heard that, his face darkened.
“That’s not what I meant. I’m just saying, we won’t be shirking our responsibilities nor admit that we’re at fault here without having solid proof. I hope everyone here can wait patiently for us while we look for answers elsewhere before you judge.”
“Ha!” Jack snorted.
