Chapter 380 The Counterattack

As soon as those words were spoken, the whole place instantly erupted.

Finished

Almost everyone had deemed Thornton Corporation as utterly heartless, and now Madelyn was actually claiming it was all slander. Naturally, no one would believe that,

Immediately, someone from the media rebutted. “That employee is already dead, with verified physical evidelice. How can there be any slander?”

“Exactly!”

“That person is already dead, and she’s claiming it’s slander? This woman is truly absurd!”

Those from the media were chattering endlessly.

After exchanging a few words in disagreement, Madelyn was feeling somewhat helpless. However, it was all within her expectations, and she had mentally prepared herself for it.

Madelyn patiently explained, “I understand that due to this incident, many of you have already begun to distrust our company, even starting to band together in protest against us. I truly feel wronged about this, though. Therefore, in order to prove our company’s innocence, I have already gotten the police involved. Moving forward, I will thoroughly reveal the truth behind this matter. The origin of this matter traces back to an unfortunate accident where an employee was injured in the suburbs. This incident led to doubts being cast upon our company by netizens. Therefore, I will start my explanation from here. Up next, I’d like everyone to watch a surveillance camera footage from the factory’s laboratory that night. Let’s see what really happened.”

As the words fell, the entire hall plunged into darkness, with all light emanating solely from the massive LED screen behind Madelyn.

At that moment, what was being shown was the surveillance camera footage that Madelyn had pulled up from her visit to the factory that day.

In the video, a man stealthily entered the laboratory and blowed himself up.

Upon viewing this video clip, both those present at the scene and those watching the live stream were collectively taken aback and baffled. They all wondered why this man would blow himsel his mind?

Wits he out of

At that moment, Madelyn continued, “Next, I would like to invite our factory’s professional pharmacist to explain the principles behind the explosion.”

Following the sound, a man garbed in a white coat made his way out.

The man wore glasses and appeared rather neat and clean. First, he gave the audience a formal bow, and then began his explanation.

“I believe that, whether you’re here with us in person or tuning in via live stream, you all must have tried the medicine from our factory, right? So, I would like to ask you all if you have experienced any problems. after taking our medicine?”

Everyone in the room shook their heads after hearing that.

The pharmacist continued, “There were no issues after consumption because the medicine from our factory are meticulously prepared by our senior pharmacists. Our factory has always been committed to producing medicine with the utmost integrity. Therefore, it’s only natural that we wouldn’t allow any issues with the quality”

“How do you explain the explosion, then?” asked a media representative, and those around echoed the question.

The pharmacist was quite composed, offering a small laugh as he replied, “Even with food, improper combinations can lead to poisoning. How much more so with medicine, right? From the surveillance footage earlier, everyone should be able to discern that the individual involved is not, in fact, a pharmacist from our company. Truth be told, he is merely a minor employee from our product department. His earlier conduct when he sneaked into the laboratory was extreinely cautious, which is enough to prove that he came prepared, and didn’t accidentally harm himself. He combined two utterly incompatible drugs and ignited them with a high flame, which led to the explosion. However, those of us in the research. department were completely unaware of this incident. So, rest assured that you can completely trust our company’s products. As for why this person ended up injuring himself… Well, let’s have the project manager explain it to you.”

After he finished speaking, the pharmacist then took his leave.

That was when the media and audience present at the scene were hit by a sudden realization. The issue at hand wasn’t a problem with the quality of the factory’s medicine, but rather, that man had tried to blow himself up on purpose.

But why would this man choose to blow himself up?

That posed yet another great mystery.

At that moment, Madelyn broke into a laugh and said, “I bet no one understands why this person ended up hurting himself, right? Honestly, I don’t get it either. So, why don’t we let the person involved explain it to us?”

After she finished speaking, Madelyn glanced at Cyrus.

Cyrus immediately understood, then proceeded to drag a man out from backstage.

The moment the

man made his appearance, everyone present at the scene instantled.

“Isn’t this man the same one who was blown up in the surveillance footage just now?”

“Right, isn’t he supposed to be dead?”

“What’s going on? Could it be a case of the dead coming back to life?”

“Oh, my goodness! What on earth is going on here?”

Suddenly, the whole scene erupted into chaos.

The netizens who were watching the live stream were all taken aback, feeling utterly astounded by everything that was happening.

They only united in condemning Thornton Corporation because this man had died.

Chapter 380 The Counterattack

Meanwhile, Janessa was delightfully engrossed in watching this live broadcast.

Upon seeing this, the smile on her face abruptly ceased, and she instantly rose from her seat,

“What’s going on here?”

Hayden was taken aback as well. “Didn’t you tell me that this man was dead?

“How would I know? Yes, I did order someone to kill him, but this…

Overwhelmed with frustration and resentment, Janessa was at a loss for words in that moment.

At that moment, a hint of a smirk appeared on Madelyn’s lips. It was as if she had this situation completely under control..

In reality, Madelyn had already predicted this long before this individual was stripped of his oxygen supply.

Since the incident was, in essence, a set–up, it was certain that the enemy lurking in the shadows wouldn’t allow the injured employee to leave the hospital alive. Therefore, they were bound to make a move in

secret.

Madelyn had anticipated this all along. Therefore, she had already taken the initiative before they could

make their move.

The weather was splendid that day.

While the patient’s wife was away from the hospital, Madelyn had Cyrus and others to negotiate with a critically ill patient in the hospital. Subsequently, they arranged for the two individuals to be swapped.

In addition to this, Madelyn had specifically sought out a renowned plastic surgeon to create a facial mask from the patient’s skin.

Leveraging this advantage, Madelyn was able to deceive everyone, successfully and covertly moving the real patient in time.

After two days of treatment, the patient had already regained consciousness.

That was why he could be standing before everyone at the press conference.
