The reporters felt their heartbeats accelerate when they fixed their eyes on the screen as Fade instructed.
Within less than half an hour, Fade had proven Calvin wrong twice. When Calvin questioned him about Eric's illness, Fade used the news to clear his own name.
Then, Calvin related him to the seafood poisoning incident. Once again, Fade revealed the truth through the news.
Now, when Fade told them to look at the screen, they instinctively thought about what happened before. They couldn't help but let their gazes fall on Calvin’s face.
At that moment, Calvin was as nervous as a mouse.
Despite that, he tried to comfort himself. "Nothing will happen, it's just a small factory. Finding a few scapegoats will easily solve the problem. With the Chiang family's name and status, this won't be a problem."
Right after Calvin's self-reassurance, the image on the screen changed once again.
The policemen had now entered the sealed building that was used for water treatment.
When the camera turned towards the murky and disgusting waters inside the building, the reporters at the site felt a lump in their throats and tried hard not to vomit.
When the thought that the seafood that they had consumed originated from that place crossed the reporters' minds, some of their faces paled and their legs grew weak.
At that moment, the camera panned across the room. There were all kinds of packaging waste in the filthy waters. When the words 'Maritime Ocean Pharma' appeared on one of the wrappers, everyone in the room froze. Their expressions changed as they turned to look at Calvin.
Calvin's face sank. He immediately defended, "This, this can't prove anything. This..."
Before Calvin could finish, a voice could be heard from outside the frame of the image on the screen, "Based on the latest investigation, the filthy water is from Maritime Ocean Pharma. The police have already..."
"This, this..." Calvin's face turned pallid.
The reporters rapidly gathered around him. All kinds of questions flooded toward him.
At that moment, the footage changed from the factory to a luxurious villa built on the slope of a
mountain.
Many of them recognized that place right away. The villa belonged to the Chiang family.
The voice continued, "The police have confirmed that the seafood poisoning incident is related to Maritime Ocean Pharma. Now, the police have arrested the people in charge of Maritime Ocean Pharma and the responsible members of the Chiang family, Marcus Chiang, Leslie Chiang..."
"And, important members of the Chiang family are still on the run, including Calvin Chiang, Chiang Aquaculture's... If anyone is aware of their whereabouts, call the police and provide the information. You may be rewarded with one hundred thousand yuan..."
When everyone heard this, their expression changed. This was a wanted order; Calvin was no longer a young master, but a wanted criminal.
All of a sudden, some of the reporters began to ask him questions, and some of the reporters began to ring the police in hopes of getting the one hundred thousand yuan reward.
Calvin didn't expect this at all and he was frozen in place.
"Young Master Chiang, it's time for us to leave," the bodyguard next to him reminded him.
Only then did Calvin come back to his senses.
Now that he was a wanted man, he had to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would be finished if he was caught.
Calvin ordered hurriedly, "Head straight to the airport... No, let's go to the jetty!"
