Chapter 22 He's Afraid
It was silent.
Dead silence.
At this moment, the juniors of the families all shut their mouths, not daring to shout a bit loudly at all.
Jennifer, on the other hand, was staring at Alfred with a deadly stare before finally placing her gaze on
Crane.
"Did you kill my father?"
Crane nodded slightly.
"Why?!" Jennifer questioned angrily.
She had only hurried back from out of town to get the big news on Dingjun Mountain, only to be
greeted with the news that her father had died.
She really couldn't understand what kind of person that guy on top of the high platform was that dared
to kill her Jennifer's father!
To her question, Crane had understatement as an answer -
"He deserves to die."
Jennifer's face changed abruptly.
The answer was somewhat unexpected.
But it was also the answer that made the anger inside her rise to the top.
"My father deserves to die?"
"Who the hell are you to judge my father's life and death at will!"
"Today I will report what you have done, murderous maniac, you are destined to be condemned by all!"
"I will not let you die easily, I will let you die of shame in endless chastisement!"
Her breasts rose and fell, apparently making up her mind.
"Quick, film this guy's face and expose him along with those who follow him, make sure they get caught
up in endless public opinion. I want word of this murderous maniac to spread across the country!"
Jennifer said coldly.
Her men were getting busy, but with a whirlwind, all cameras were knocked to the ground by the
guards.
This infuriated Jennifer beyond measure.
"Do you guys know what you're doing? You're obstructing freedom of expression!"
"Freedom of fucking expression!"
John burst out at once.
He couldn't look at it long ago, this woman was really arrogant, compared to her, both Crane and the
others and Alfred looked quite inferior.
And it was also his words that caused countless people to look at John.
Jennifer, in particular, cursed angrily, "Which ungrateful thing dares to insult me, expose him!"
But as her gaze turned away, and she was frightened.
"Governor Porter!"
Jennifer swallowed hard, and she stared at John incredulously.
Why was he here?
"Hmph!"
John snorted coldly and walked downstairs step by step, his gaze unable to stop hovering over Jennifer Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
and the others.
"You may not be quite aware of the situation you are in. You are not media people now, much less
representatives of free speech, but prisoners, murderers!"
Again, there was dead silence.
Jennifer swallowed hard, she was unsure by John's words, and it took her a long time to break the
silence.
"Governor Porter, what do you mean by that? We are all from major media companies, when did we
commit crime?!"
Her words served as a starter, and the others began to chime in.
"That's right, Governor Porter, we can't understand your words. Does it mean that you are behind the
Duncan family’s tragedy?"
"Even if you are involved in this, we, as publishers of the truth, are bound to announce it, even if it
means death."
"Governor Porter, please explain what your role is in this matter, and what the hell is going on with
those murderous fiends behind you!"
Several of the juniors of the family called out.
But John was not the least bit timid.
"The publisher of the truth?"
"Huh."
He sneered, "How much truth have you uncovered over the years?"
"Just some insignificant truths, and even many people are hurt because of your insignificant truths."
"Some people don't want their affairs disclosed at all, but you uncover one truth after another even
against the wishes of the interviewees in order to gain traffic and make those people's lives worse than
death."
"Especially you, Jennifer, you were interviewing a family whose family was broken because of a car
accident six months ago, but did you know that? Originally, that husband was busy to the point of
mental breakdown in order to raise the sky-high medical bills for his wife before the car accident
happened."
"You started raising money for fundraising afterwards, but where was that money? Did it all go into your
pockets?"
"Those were good people donating their money for a poor man, but you're a bitch and you even want to
make a name for yourself!"
The room was dead silent as these words came out.
In fact, most of the people present knew about this matter, but no one would put it out in the open.
Now that John did it, Jennifer only felt that her disguise had been mercilessly peeled off.
"How dare you!"
She gritted her teeth, wanting to curse out, but the next second a slap slapped her directly on the face,
and then she looked up to see a blue-faced John.
"Bitch!"
John really didn't expect that there was such an unashamed person in the city under his rule, and a
journalist at that.
When Crane had brought out this piece of news to him earlier, John had only one thought inside -
It was shocking!
Not only that, over the years, Jennifer and the Duncan family did something wrong, such as running
people over in car racing, drinking, drugging, were all put to rest by Jennifer herself, or with the help of
her contacts in the media world.
What a folkloric and simple Stone City!
The truth was that they had been dirty long ago, but the person who started it was able to get away
with it, and that was what made John most angry.
He had wanted to not offend the Lawson family, so he had adopted a strategy of going slowly with the
Duncan family, but at the moment, he couldn't stand it anymore.
"Arrest them all, I want them to be sentenced by the public!"
With a wave of John's hand, many guards were about to grab Jennifer and Alfred and the rest of the
Duncan family.
But on top of the high platform, Crane opened his mouth at this time.
"Wait a minute."
"Mr. Smith, they're the worst offenders!"
John explained, "Even if I have to offend the Lawson family, I still have to make these bastards get the
punishment they deserve!"
"No, no, no!"
Crane shook his head slightly and said, "It is true that they should be punished, but there is still one
person from their family who has not come, and I want to meet that person before making a decision."
"Hmm?"
John froze, but then figured it out.
The last Duncan family member would be Brian Duncan.
What did he want?
Did it mean that when Brian came, he was going to let the Duncan family go?
But wasn't he insistent on purging the Duncan family before?!
Not only John, but the others also got the idea.
Alfred, on the other hand, was the most excited.
"It seems that my brother’s name has done the trick, this guy is scared!"
