Love Contract novel Chapter 76

On the screen, Jay's interview video was played.

"I never would have thought that my daughter, whom I have raised for more than 20 years, would turn out like this!" In the video, Jay was putting Mary in a bad light with tears in his eyes. "I understand if she does not care about me. But, her brother is so young. He was only one year old when he was diagnosed with leukemia. How could she refuse to help him?"

"Oh my God!" the host shouted exaggeratedly. "Such a little child! How did your daughter answer you at that time?"

"She said she wouldn't give me even a single penny." Jay wiped away his tears and added, "If I had any other choice, I wouldn't have come to beg her!"

With a mocking smile, Mary continued to click the mouse with her right hand. The comment area below the video was full of curses and condemnation.

"That's what happens when people become rich. They lose their humanity!"

"I have known that Mary is a bitch. She even seduced Victor last time."

"Disgusting! She deserves to die!" "She looks innocent but she's not as nice as she looks like."

"She's an idiot. She doesn't deserve to be human!"

"Divorce her as soon as possible. She only married William for his money!"

If Mary were a few years younger, she would have overturned the table, checked those people's ID, and come to them with bricks. However, she was not young anymore. Now, she just wanted to laugh at them.

A foolish father trying to make a trouble out of nothing in front of stupid people.

Mary clenched her phone with her left hand and gritted her teeth. This matter would definitely have a serious negative impact on AJ Group. The top priority now was to solve the problem.

"Mary."

With a call, Mary turned around and saw that Frank and William were standing side by side behind her.

"I came to your show to seek justice. Please help me!" In the video, her father's pleads were still unceasing as it embarrassed the three who were looking at each other.

Mary was keenly aware of the frown on William's face. "I'm sorry," said Mary apologetically. "I'll solve this matter well and make sure there won't be any negative impact on the company. Otherwise, just deduct my salary."

"Mary," said Frank, "can you solve it by yourself? Don't you need our help?"

"No, thanks." Mary shook her head firmly. "I can do it on my own."

"How do you intend to solve this?" William suddenly spoke and looked into her eyes.

"Hold a press conference to clarify the truth." After thinking for a while, Mary added, "I can do it. I'll talk to the people in the Public Relations Department first."

"Okay." Frank nodded his head. Seeing that Mary was passing by, he grabbed William's arm when he was about to follow her. William looked at him for a moment.

"Why, you want to chase her again?" Frank asked when Mary had already left.

"Frank, this is a company business." After saying that, William felt helpless.

"She said she could do it alone. You don't have to be involved, do you?" Frank frowned and added, "Besides, you haven't told me about what happened in Hainan."

"Nothing happened," said William, his hands in his pockets. He walked slowly to his office and added, "It was just a business trip."

"Didn't you miss me?" Frank asked. "You didn't even call me."

"There was an accident. I dived into the water to save someone so my phone got soaked." William then picked up the phone on the table and showed it to Frank. "Look, it's a new one."

"That must be quite unforgettable, right?" Frank commented sarcastically.

"Indeed." William casually held his new phone and turned it back and forth in his hand.

"William," sighed Frank, "do you know where Nancy is?"

"Where?"

"Japan." Frank said helplessly, "My father is traveling with my mother there. Isn't Nancy's purpose to go to Japan obvious?"

Hearing that, William stopped what he was doing.

"I think I'm in trouble." Frank threw up his hands. "I guess you also can't escape."

"I will take care of everything." William stretched out his arm and patted Frank on the shoulder.

"William," asked Frank, with his head on William's shoulder, "what should we do?" "Don't worry. Everything's gonna be alright." William hugged him. "I'm preparing for the share transfer these days. We'll be able to go to Norway soon."

"Okay." Frank nodded. "By the way, my sister's death anniversary will be in a few days. Will you go see her with me?"

"Okay, let's go together,"

William answered. His eyes narrowed at the thought of Frank's sister. For the past six years, whenever he thought of her, his heart would ache slightly.

Her life was taken away in that midsummer, together with all his hope and happiness.

On the way to the Public Relations Department, people stared at Mary strangely but she paid no attention to them.

"Hello, Mrs. Lan."

"Mary."

"Hi, Mrs. Lan."

In the office of the Public Relations Department, after the staff greeted her one by one, Mary announced to all of them, "I have something to do today here. I'm sure you've seen the video of my father on the internet. I will hold an unscheduled press conference to clarify the truth once and for all. For those who have nothing to do at the moment, I would like you to help me contact major media reporters. Tell them that if they are interested in attending the press conference, they should be here at exactly 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

People who have worked with me must have a clear idea with what kind of person I am. Also, those who do not know me will know as well through this press conference. You'd better not spread anything that came out from nowhere too.

That's all. Thank you all."

And with that, Mary bowed to them deeply.

"Good job, Mary!"

Someone in the room cheered for her and the atmosphere in the office immediately became warm.

"You can do it, Mrs. Lan!"

"Good for you, Mary!"

"Mary is definitely not that kind of person!"
