Chapter 1202: Chapter 411: Massive Eruption (Part 3)
Max Block nodded and said nothing more.
“Los Angeles Times” headquarters!
Harry Chandler had lost his previous calmness, his expression filled with anger, and hidden within that anger was worry!
Kyle Palmer stood opposite Harry Chandler, pale-faced.
“Boss, someone must be behind this!”
“Nonsense!” Harry Chandler scolded Kyle Palmer while throwing the ashtray from his desk onto the wool carpet.
“Do you think I don’t know someone is behind this? It’s been so long since this happened, I asked you to invite Aiden’s family over, why haven’t you done that yet?
Also, I asked you to find Connor Joyce, why did Connor Joyce suddenly do something detrimental to us?
I don’t care whether that kid was truly beaten or not, why can’t you even find his doctors and nurses?
I’ve assigned you tasks, and you’ve completed none, how do you expect me to face everyone else now?”
Just like Cameron Block said, as long as the kid isn’t really hurt, this thing has a massive loophole.
And to fix that loophole, they would need to pay a higher price.
Harry Chandler’s arranged tasks were all methods to break through this predicament, but Kyle Palmer hadn’t completed any of them.
This made Harry Chandler doubt whether he’d been nurturing a fool all these years.
Kyle Palmer said helplessly, “I had some unpleasant dealings with Connor Joyce recently, he wouldn’t meet me at all. My men went to Aiden’s home, but there were people guarding the house, they couldn’t meet anyone there. Even the doctors and nurses had journalists around them, if we tried anything forceful, those journalists would surely catch us at fault.”
Harry Chandler coldly looked at Kyle Palmer and said, laughing in his anger, “So you want to tell me you have no way of dealing with the current situation?”
“No!” Kyle Palmer hurriedly said, “Boss, from the intelligence we have, someone’s definitely targeting us. We just need to clarify everything, and I believe the people outside will surely see we’re being framed!”
Harry Chandler gave Kyle Palmer a fierce slap, then grabbed him by the collar and said, “Could it really have been you who arranged this?”
Harry Chandler couldn’t help but suspect, because Kyle Palmer’s suggestion just now was simply absurd.
With today’s overwhelming newspaper reports, all the citizens of Los Angeles already knew the matter. These ignorant people had already chosen to believe the contents of the papers.
Which means they directly deemed them the culprits.
Unless the “Los Angeles Times” presents compelling and convincing evidence, no matter how they explain it, no one would believe them.
Such a simple truth, how could Kyle Palmer not get it?
So it’s quite possible he made such a stupid mistake.
Thinking this, Harry Chandler suddenly showed a face of value towards Kyle Palmer and said, “Palmer, how have I treated you over the years?”
Kyle Palmer, who was holding his cheek in confusion, suddenly heard Harry Chandler ask this, and instinctively replied, “Okay!”
“Hmm?”
Harry Chandler made a low, dissatisfied noise from his nose.
“Ah, very well!” Kyle Palmer hurriedly said.
Harry Chandler smiled and said, “Since you know it’s very well, that’s good. I have something I need you to do now!”
Kyle Palmer couldn’t help but ask, “What is it?”
“Now, go out and take the blame for everything alone, stating it was all your decision, with no links to the ‘Los Angeles Times’!” Harry Chandler said.
Kyle Palmer: “…”
They’re abandoning me now!
Harry Chandler didn’t want to abandon Kyle Palmer, but he had to. This situation had come too quickly, leaving him no time to resolve it.
The only way now is to find someone within the “Los Angeles Times” with enough weight to come out, admit everything, and then the “Los Angeles Times” could fire him to solve their problems.
“Don’t worry, we’re only doing this temporarily, the company will continue to investigate the matter, once it’s resolved, you’ll naturally be absolved!”
Since Harry Chandler wanted Kyle Palmer to take all the blame, he certainly had to show some goodwill.
“Rest assured, once this matter settles, I’ll let you return to your current position!”
Faced with Harry Chandler’s persuasive words, Kyle Palmer internally dismissed all of what he said.
“Boss, of course, I’m willing to sacrifice for the company, but you should know I’ve got quite a few subordinates in the company, if they see the company treating me like this, I’m really worried they might do something detrimental to the company. How about I persuade them first?”
Harry Chandler frowned and suddenly said, “Forget it, consider it a joke I just made with you!”
At this damn moment, you tell me you were joking?
I may lack intelligence, but I’m not truly foolish!
