The manager turned around and immediately recognized Scott Huang. The expression on his face changed slightly, and he said, "Director Huang, someone has stolen a diamond ring worth 100,000 from our exhibition booth. We are asking this gentleman to cooperate with the investigation."
"Cooperate with the investigation?" Scott grunted coldly, glaring at the manager. He continued speaking in anger, "Is this what you mean by cooperating with the investigation? Asking the security guards to take action?"
The manager tried to explain, "Director Huang, I have no choice. We asked this gentleman to assist in the investigation, but he did not cooperate. Therefore, we are forced to--"
"Rubbish! "Scott retorted directly, interrupting his words.
"Do you know who he is?" Scott pointed at Fade and asked angrily.
At this moment, all the people around them had curious and confused expressions. They glanced at Scott and Fade .
The manager had a slight change of expression, saying, "I don't know who this gentleman is, can you clarify for me?"
"He is my—" Scott was about to speak.
At this moment, a clear booming voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Scott's words. "Oh, isn't this Director Huang?
The crowd looked towards the direction of the voice. They spotted Salazar Xu and Rowena Song walking towards them, side by side, with smiles on their faces.
When the surrounding guests saw Salazar and Rowena, they immediately started to chatter, and some of them even started greeting them with enthusiasm.
Scott's face fell, and he glanced at Salazar, saying coldly, "Mr. Xu, why are you here?"
Salazar seemingly did not notice the anger on Scott's face. He said with a smile, "Nothing really, I just caught sight of Director Huang here, and came over to greet you."
Salazar then acted rather surprised, as he pointed at Fade, saying, "Oh, is this not the second largest shareholder of Scott Entertainment, President Fade Chen? Director Huang and President Chen, you are both here at the jewelry exhibition together."
As soon as he said these words, the surrounding guests were astonished. They fixed their gazes at Fade.
They would never have imagined that Fade, with his simple attire and suspicious demeanor, would be the second largest shareholder of Scott Entertainment.
For a moment, the sound of whispers could be heard again.
"I didn't expect him to be a shareholder of Scott Entertainment."
"Yeah, I can't see it at all."
"If he is a shareholder, then he probably would not need to steal the diamond ring!"
"That's not necessarily true. Some rich people still commit theft."
"Yes, besides, look at his appearance. Who knows whether this shareholder is nominal or financial."
Listening to the gossip and speculation around him,Scott's expression gradually sank. He glanced at Salazar and seemed rather distracted.
He then yelled loudly, "What kind of joke is this, Brother Fade is like a brother to me. If he wanted the whole Scott Entertainment enterprise, he would have it with one sentence. He would not need this diamond ring."
"You think Brother Fade will be short of 100,000 and steal this ring?" Scott glared fiercely at the exhibition booth manager.
