C245: Edge Of Desperation
A few minutes later, Victor Blackwell stood beside his car with a bright smile on his face as he stared at the cheque in his hand.Twenty million dollars.He could hardly believe his eyes. He lowered his head slightly and looked at Naomi with an expression filled with gratitude."Thank you very much, Miss Rossi." His smile was so wide that he looked like a cat that had just caught a canary."Don't mention it." Naomi waved her hand dismissively, pretending to be humble."Just leave the task to us. We'll definitely get it done.""Yes, Miss Rossi." Catherine nodded eagerly with an amiable smile. "Thank you for helping our family through this difficult time. We really don't know what we would have done without you."Naomi's lips curled upward. "Please, don't mention it. We're all on the same side. It's only natural that we help each other.""Of course... Of course." Victor laughed happily. Then he glanced at Catherine before turning back to Naomi. "Miss Rossi, we actually have something e
C246: Boycott Raven & Radiance!
Early that morning, a large crowd had already gathered outside Raven & Radiance. Several protesters held banners above their heads while loudly denouncing the company."Raven & Radiance must explain itself!""We demand justice for the victims!""How can a company sell jewelry that harms its customers?!""Boycott Raven & Radiance!""Their jewelry is nothing but overpriced garbage!""Even their old collections need to be investigated!""If Infinity is dangerous, how many other customers have been affected by their jewelry?!"The protesters shouted one slogan after another, their angry voices echoing through the street.Some held enlarged photographs of the terrible rashes allegedly caused by Infinity, while others carried signs accusing Raven & Radiance of putting profits above the safety of its customers."We trusted Raven & Radiance!""They advertised Infinity as a Infinity as a luxury bracelet!""What else have they been hiding?!"The situation quickly attracted the attention of passe
C247: They Need To Pay!
Meanwhile, the protest outside Raven & Radiance had spread across the internet like wildfire.Because paparazzi and entertainment reporters had already been keeping a close eye on the company following the massive success of Infinity, it didn't take long for news crews to arrive at the scene.Within minutes, cameras were everywhere. Reporters pushed their microphones toward the protesters, eager to get their side of the story."Do you believe Raven & Radiance deliberately sold a dangerous product?""Should the company recall Infinity immediately?""Do you believe the company's other jewelry should also be investigated?""What exactly do you want Raven & Radiance to do?"Instead of calming the situation, the questions only fueled the anger of the crowd."Of course they should recall it! How many people have to get hurt before they take responsibility?!""I want my money back! I paid a fortune for that bracelet!""Don't just recall Infinity! Investigate every piece they've ever sold!""
C248: We Want Justice!
"What's going on?!" someone shouted angrily. "We've been standing here for so long, yet the boss still hasn't come out to see us!""Yeah! She clearly doesn't care about what happened to her customers!"The crowd turned toward the entrance, where several security guards stood in a firm line, blocking the doors while anxious employees remained behind them. The shouting grew louder."Call your boss out right now!""She owes us an explanation!""We want our money back!""We want justice!"Just then, Iris arrived at the ground floor. Several employees immediately noticed her and instinctively parted to allow her through."Look!" someone from the crowd suddenly shouted. "Their boss is finally here!"Every head turned toward Iris. Before she could fully process what was happening, the crowd surged toward her.Thunderous footsteps shook the pavement as dozens of angry people pushed forward, their expressions filled with fury and resentment. The security guards immediately tightened their form
C249: Where Is He?
After a careful examination, she was surprised to discover that it was indeed a genuine Infinity bracelet. Her brows furrowed deeply.Every piece of jewelry produced by Raven & Radiance had to pass several quality-control inspections before it could be released to the market. A bracelet containing a dangerous substance should never have made it through the process. So how had this happened?Without wasting any more time, she turned to Bobby. "Take this to the quality-control department immediately."Bobby hurried forward and carefully collected the bracelet. "Yes, Miss Blackwell.""Have them conduct a complete test. I want every material examined.""Understood." Bobby nodded and quickly disappeared into the building with the bracelet.The crowd remained restless outside. The reporters immediately seized the opportunity to question Iris."Miss Blackwell, if the test confirms that Infinity contains a dangerous substance, will Raven & Radiance recall the entire collection?"Iris looked
C250: Compensate Us
The reporters had overheard the conversation, and their eyes immediately lit up."Miss Blackwell!" one of them shouted. "Are you saying the manager responsible for Infinity's production has disappeared?""Or is Raven & Radiance trying to hide something?""Does this mean someone deliberately tampered with the bracelets?""Is this why the company hasn't made an official statement yet?"The questions came one after another, and the cameras immediately focused on Iris. Although her expression remained calm, her mind was already racing."Find Manager Smith." She turned toward Bobby. "Call him again. Check his home address and contact his family if necessary. I want to know where he is.""Yes, ma'am." Bobby nodded and quickly stepped aside, his phone already in his hand.The crowd fell silent for a brief moment. Then the middle-aged man who had brought the bracelet forward spoke again. "And what if you still can't find him?"Iris looked at him, wondering what he was trying to stir up now."
C251: No Respect For Elders
The crowd continued echoing these words. "Smash this place!" "Smash it!" "Get inside!" The angry protesters surged forward, rolling up their sleeves as they pushed against the protective barricade formed by the security guards. The guards struggled to hold them back, their faces tense as the crowd continued pressing forward. "Everyone, please calm down!" Iris raised her voice, trying to prevent the situation from escalating further. "Let's talk about this calmly!" But the moment she stepped forward, she made a terrible mistake. The middle-aged man from earlier suddenly reached through the crowd and grabbed her arm. "You cheap woman!" His fingers tightened around her wrist as he glared at her fiercely. "Calm down my ass!" Iris' eyes widened. "What are you doing?" She immediately tried to pull her arm free, but his grip was surprisingly strong. "Let me go!" However, instead of releasing her, the man's expression twisted into a sinister smile. Iris glanced around f
C252: You're Lying!
The middle-aged man's convincing performance immediately stirred the anger of the crowd.People turned toward Veyron and Iris with condemning expressions."Unscrupulous company!""They beat up their own customers!""We want justice!""How can they treat people like this?!"The accusations quickly spread through the crowd, growing louder with every passing second.The security guards exchanged uneasy glances as they continued struggling to keep the protesters behind the barricade. Even some of the Raven & Radiance employees looked nervous. If this situation continued to escalate, things could get much worse.Meanwhile, the reporters immediately focused their cameras on the confrontation.One female reporter pushed her way through the crowd and approached the middle-aged man."Sir, can you tell us exactly what happened?"The man immediately clutched his injured arm and put on an expression of unbearable pain. "I came here to ask Raven & Radiance for an explanation," he said miserably. "
C253: Don't Let Him Get Away!
But the middle-aged man's expression changed slightly. "Who cares about surveillance footage?!"He immediately covered his injured arm with his other hand. "My hand is broken now!"He gritted his teeth, forcing a pained expression onto his face. "You broke my hand and still want to talk about surveillance footage while I'm in this much pain?"Veyron's eyes narrowed coldly. Without saying anything, he took a step toward the man.The man's body immediately tensed. "What are you trying to do?""Aren't you certain that I broke your hand?" Veyron stopped in front of him and crouched slightly. His hand moved toward the man's injured wrist, but he didn't actually touch it. "We'll find out soon enough."The middle-aged man immediately scrambled backward as though he had been scalded."Are you trying to threaten me?!" His voice rose sharply. "Do you want to hurt me again?!""I'm not." Veyron straightened calmly and took a step back. "You are the one who keeps lying."The man's expression chang
C254: Why Is It So Itchy?!
The middle-aged man continued scratching frantically at his other arm. "Itchy... It's so itchy!"His face twisted in discomfort as his fingers dug into his skin. The more he scratched, the more unbearable the sensation seemed to become.The crowd stared at him in confusion."What happened to him?""Why is he suddenly scratching himself?""Didn't he just say his hand was broken?""I don't understand..."Even the reporters were bewildered. A few lowered their cameras slightly, unsure whether they should continue recording the strange scene unfolding before them.The middle-aged man, however, was too consumed by the itching to notice anyone's reaction. His face had turned red as he repeatedly rubbed and scratched his arm."Why is it so itchy?!" he cried.Veyron remained completely calm. But Iris noticed something. There was a faint, almost mischievous smile tugging at the corner of his lips. Her eyes narrowed suspiciously and she leaned closer to him."What did you do to him?" she whispe
