Chapter 126 A Press Conference
It was obvious that since Lionel was from Gu family, no media dared to post his picture on the Internet. But for Amanda, they didn't have to worry at all and just did what they should. Because they all believed that due to such scandal, this Cinderella without any background could not keep her prince's heart.
Amanda took a deep breath and then ran out of the back door of Cheng Group, with newspaper in her hand. She was walking slowly on the street. 'No wonder Lionel called me.' she thought, 'Has he been besieged by the media?' Wasn't his face covered? Why could someone still find him? And it seemed to be media.
A car stopped in front of her. Darren opened the window and said, "Get in the car."
Amanda had been absent-minded for a long time, and now she was even more depressed when she saw Darren. She just ignored him and continued her walking.
To Darren's surprise, she didn't even look at him. Then he drove along with Amanda.
"Darren, why are you following me? Is there nothing to do in the company?" He drove all the way following her two blocks, said Amanda.
Darren said flatly, "Right now, except that Mrs. An had an affair with another man, what else big matters does the company have now?"
"Then you should deal with it. Why are you following me? Do you want to ask me if I have an affair or not? You won't believe me no matter what I say. Since you never believe me in your heart, why do you bother me?" Amanda turned around and shouted at Darren, regardless of her image, as if she was going to explode at any minute.
Amanda's eyes reddened. Darren grabbed her into the car and growled, "Stop being dramatic!"
"Dramatic? You think I'm dramatic?" With a newspaper in her hand, Amanda glimpsed at him and asked, "Was it me or the media? Why do they have to make everything sound vivid when they make up stories? What do they want? Did I do anything wrong?"
Her eyes were red, and she looked like she had been wronged, which comforted him a bit. He said lightly, "Now we need to hold a press conference to clarify the truth. I'm taking you back to the company, and Sophie has already been responsible for contacting. Because of you, the stock price of An Group has fallen the most severe during this week."
The stock of An Group had fallen. The influence of her cheating was so great! There was no doubt that Amanda stood tall in the dust after the scandal. The scandal must infuriated the hell out of Nicholas. He must gave her a good thrashing. How unlucky she was.
When they arrived at An Group, all eyes were filled with sympathy and disdain for Amanda. Sophie held Amanda's hand secretly and said, "Relax. It's An Group's place. Journalists here must respect An family. Just go ahead."
"It would be a good thing if they could save An family's face. But no one wants to get involved with An family. They are always interested in the sensational news. I can't stand their criticism." Amanda said with an ironic smile. She remembered that Darren had hosted a press conference here, where the atmosphere was naturally harmonious.
The host invited Darren and Amanda to step on the stage.
As soon as Amanda stepped on the stage, a female reporter asked sharply, "Do you really love your husband? Although you have gotten married for a short time, but you have lived a happy life as a couple. Why did you choose to cheat on your husband?"
"I didn't cheat on him." Amanda announced flatly with the microphone in her hand.
"So, is the man you love the most your husband?" The female reporter asked immediately.
After a short pause, Amanda bit her lips and continued, "Yes, you're right. I love Darren the most. He is my husband."
She couldn't put another trouble for Lionel. He was so tired this time. When she uttered these words, her heart tightened for a second. She put her hand in the hand of Darren, which showed that they were happily married. Only she knew how hard it was for them to pay off.
The reporters' sharp questions came one after another. Darren didn't speak at first, but later he got angry and asked the reporters to write the news as they wanted. His temper was worse than Amanda's. no one dared to offend An family, but they all took the red envelope of An family. No one would offend An family. It was just that these matters were very important, so most of the media saw the pictures posted online, then they used it immediately.
It was estimated that it would take a long time to find out the source of the rumor, so Darren directly paid for it and took a photo of him and Amanda standing together as evidence. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Because Darren had the initiative to decide how his marriage with Amanda would go on. When he wanted her, she was a treasure. When he didn't want her, she was nothing. Therefore, if Darren forgave her, people would believe that nothing had happen.
So the public opinion this time was much easier to explain than the one that Darren was photographed when he went to see Rose.
Of course, it had a great influence on An Group. Darren needed to go to the head office to soothe a lot of shareholders.
After the press conference, Amanda felt exhausted. She called Lionel, and he answered the phone.
"Lionel, how's it going?" "Are you okay?" Amanda asked hurriedly.
In a hoarse voice, Lionel answered in a low voice, "I'm fine. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. An Group is holding a press conference. Once the rumor is leaked, we won't be afraid." Amanda said with a sigh of relief.
Hearing what she said, Lionel chuckled in a low voice. Amanda didn't pay much attention to it.
It was Darren who helped her solve the accident. Was he good to her or not.
When she needed his protection most, he would stand out, and could listen to her complaints at any time. However, Darren had a strong possessive desire, and once he was temperament, he would ignore anything.
Amanda was very confused and she was at a loss what to do next.
Hanging up the phone, Amanda breathed a sigh of relief. When she turned around, she saw Darren standing behind her silently. Frightened, Amanda hung up the phone immediately.
"The situation is getting better now." Then Darren turned around and left.
Amanda had no idea how much Darren had heard about their conversation.
