Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 463: Mistress to the Top
At this point, the Thompson Group was once again in a mess, having just picked up a little after the last accident and now facing bankruptcy. Eloise sat in the conference room, looking down with some headache.
Josh had a smug look on his face and looked like he was waiting for a good show.
It was a long time before Eloise spoke out unsteadily.
"I am sure you have heard something about the recent untrue rumours that have hit our company quite hard.
But I am not to blame for this. We all know what happened to the Thompson Group before, so I don't expect anyone here to have second thoughts.
Nor do we want anyone to have to fall on their sword; our common goal is to run the Thompson Group well and only then can we achieve a win-win situation."
However, no sooner had Eloise said this than Josh came out with a retort, "You are now the titular director of the Thompson Group, the person who is in charge of the Thompson Group, and when something goes wrong, do you have anything to say other than this nonsense?"
He has held a grudge since the last time Eloise didn't give Josh the GM position.
As soon as he saw the opportunity to discredit Eloise, he jumped at it.
The others in the room looked at Josh with disdain; it was the first time they had seen a father who couldn't see his daughter becoming good like that. Among the shareholders were the people Josh had bribed earlier, and seeing that Eloise hadn't made a sound, they stepped forward at this point.
"Yes, Patriarch Thompson, now that the Thompson Group is in crisis because of your personal reasons, it is right that you should give us a statement."
But there are those who stand between justice and stand up for Eloise.
An older shareholder, pointing at Josh, said, "Do you think you have anything to do with the Thompson Group being in the situation it is today? If it wasn't for your daughter, would the Thompson Group have become a target? Now that it's finally on the right track, you can't wait to come out and point the finger of blame. I don't know whether you know shame or not!"
When the man's words came out, Josh knew he was in the wrong and had to be silenced.
At that moment there was a knock on the door of the meeting room.
Before Eloise could say anything, she saw a group of men with guns in their hands rush in.
Straight away, Eloise was surrounded by microphones reaching out to her one by one.
A journalist caught the opportunity and hurriedly threw out questions.
"Miss Eloise, I wonder if you've seen all those messages on the internet? Describing you as a mistress on top, I wonder how you feel about that?" "Miss Eloise, why do you keep stealing other people's fiancés? First your sister's and now Mrs Rogers family, are you really a snake in the head?" "Yeah Miss Eloise, I'm told you're in charge of the Thompson Group, why isn't it taking off?"
"Miss Eloise, please give us an answer."
...
The crowds surrounded Eloise and there was one question after another.
Eloise is still in a state of confusion and doesn't know how to go about answering.
Unbeknownst to them, someone took advantage of the chaos and started broadcasting live, with the number of viewers already reaching tens of thousands.
It was only then that the shareholders present reacted and rushed to shoo those people out.
This is Thompson Group's internal. This is internal Thompson Group information and is not to be divulged.
It was only when the men had gone out that Eloise came back to her senses.
Dial Hector's number in a hurry.
"Hector, I've got a situation on my side, a group of journalists have surrounded the Thompson Group and I don't know what to do now."
Eloise's voice took on a slight sobbing tone as she faced this situation for the first time.
"Eloise, take it easy, I'm going over to the Thompson Group now, don't be afraid, I'll be there in ten minutes." Hector said soothingly.
While teaching Eloise what to do now, she went downstairs.
Eloise was much relieved to hear Hector's voice.
But she had never been exposed to such a situation and was still flustered.
The journalists outside the door, with their equipment in hand, kept filming what was going on inside.
The video of the shareholders just kicking them out has been circulating online.
Soon after, Hector arrived at the Thompson Group and as soon as he appeared, the journalists who had been waiting downstairs for a long time surrounded him.
"If you all want the truth, please follow me upstairs."
After dropping the words, Hector strides up the stairs.
The journalists behind them followed closely.
When they arrived at the front of the conference room, the journalists blocking the door could not help but make way.
Opening the door to a sad-looking Eloise inside, Hector went over to her and took her in his arms.
Unceasingly, he said soothingly, "I'm coming, leave everything to me."
Eloise buried her entire body in Hector's arms, her nose sore and tears flowing down her face without argument.
After a while, when Eloise's mood had stabilised, Hector took her by the hand and went to the door.
"First of all, I would like to thank all the journalists for taking such an interest in our private life as a couple, and I can say with certainty that those on the internet are untrue statements. My wife is the kind of person that I, Hector, know best, and the excessive comments made by some people on the internet have seriously affected my wife's daily life."
Hector spoke and continued, "I will leave this to my lawyers and accordingly some people will be served with my indictment. Secondly, the situation at Thompson Group today was not caused by my wife Eloise, it was caused solely by the last director, Patriarch Thompson."
He just had that aura of control over the room, and all the media, just listened to him in peace and quiet.
"I believe that all Thompson Group employees present can testify to this, as well as the fiancé-snatching incident, which is clearly nonsense as to who is snatching who. Those who know the truth of the matter will naturally understand. Well, that's my answer to everyone's questions, the rest is no comment."
With that, Hector led Eloise away from the crowd.
In response to Hector's claims, shareholders of the company have come forward to testify and even some junior employees of the company have come forward to clarify the matter. Eloise didn't steal anyone's fiancé at all, it was clearly Agnes who took it across the board.
This changed the wind of things again.
Those who attacked Eloise online started to show sympathy for her and also started to review their previous words.
Looking at what was being said online, Eloise was finally able to breathe through it.
It is also a way of clearing your name.
Eloise couldn't help but be very grateful to Hector, who took care of all her problems for her whenever she was at her most difficult.
Without him, she would have had a headache to face the reporters.
As things unfolded, Hector suddenly realised what was wrong with the matter.
Why did this woman just happen to show up and Eloise's past was blown out of proportion?
Is there anyone else in the world who can't see the good in Eloise other than the Josh family?
The biggest suspect is undoubtedly Agnes, the woman who has not been heard from since her escape.
If she was behind it, many of the things that don't make sense would make sense.
