The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 329

A few simple words of praise from the VIP made the banquet abuzz with clamoring discussion.

Everyone was familiar with Julian Shaw, but it was only when the VIP brought Jacob Shelby up that the crowd realized his identity.

Susan’s brother was the developer of the SL system!

Susan was quite an amazing individual. Being one of the Wrights aside, the brother who was not related to her by blood was also such a prestigious personage.

After the signature and selfies, the VIP fulfilled all the little wishes of Susan. It was only then that he left the banquet.

The atmosphere of the party became lively again as soon as he left the courtroom.

After all, the VIP's aura was too overwhelming so the reporters didn't dare ask any questions while he was there.

All the reporters were itching to have a go at it so Luna announced with a grin, "Friends from the press, you now have the opportunity to ask three questions." 'Only three?'

Now, everybody would not dare to slight them any longer.

The reporters gathered together and had a discussion before one of them was selected to ask the three questions.

"Good day, Mrs. Wright. On behalf of everyone, I’ll be asking three questions regarding all the turmoil caused by the public's opinions over these past few days,” the reporter started the session politely.

The appearance of the VIP had proven to be too much. How could he not be modest with the questions?

"Alright." Luna responded with a smile.

George had always been just a mascot on such occasions. All the reporters who were familiar with the Wrights knew that they should go directly to Luna.

The reporter took a glance into his note to confirm something, then asked, "The first question. What's your comment on General Oliver Wright's imprisonment?”

Luna looked calm and steady. "Oliver is my son, and I know him all too well. He wouldn't have done such things."

Luna touched on the issue lightly, but Susan continued commenting, "Let's set aside the fact that the Wrights have been unyieldingly righteous all these years and have never been involved in such incidents. I'd also love to add that I've just reunited with the Wrights at that time. It's just five million dollars, was it worth his risk?"

Everybody was astounded when Susan said so.

They recalled the list of out-of-this-world opulent gifts that Julian presented to the Wrights just a few days earlier.

A single car from that list would already cost more than five million dollars.

There was absolutely no need for Oliver to risk himself when the sister was this rich. It just didn't make any sense.

For example, if a person only had one dollar, then he might take the risk for a hundred dollars.

However, if a person already had one million dollars, why would he take the risk for another million?

"Susie, you don't have to explain everything." Luna spoke softly, "When the Wrights act, we only adhere to one principle, that is to have a clear conscience. We took in everything that Susan gave us with a clean conscience. We'll only be guilty if we've accepted money from other parties. Let’s just put it out there. If the results of the investigations show that Oliver did cross the line, I'll sever my relationship with him.”

Luna’s sturdy stance stunned everyone.

The comment section on the internet stopped for an instant.

Then a barrage went off.

"I believe in Mrs. Wright! I believe in the Wrights!"

"I can only say that when the disaster happened here, Oliver Wright was the one who personally dug me out of the soil."

"And also, I..."

Over the years, Oliver had made countless contributions, no matter the size.

Driven by the plotter behind the scenes and irrational netizens, the entire internet was full of voices that were denouncing him previously.

Rational voices emerged from time to time, but they were often drowned immediately by waves of angry netizens.

However, everyone has calmed down.

So when these voices came out once again, they were seen by more people. This time around, the voices in favor of Oliver prevailed.
