Chapter 290:
“Please be quiet first.” Judson raised his voice and looked at the crowd firmly, holding up a piece of paper. “In my hand is Benton Group’s official statement on the matter p>
After a pause, he turned to the paper and read it in a mechanical voice. “The investigation into the allegations that Benton Group used radioactive materials in the Ice and Fire jewelry series has revealed that some of the raw materials in the French branch’s warehouse do contain radioactive elements. It turned out that two warehouse keepers were dissatisfied with the company for personal reasons. They wanted to take revenge on the company, so they tampered with the raw materials, introducing some materials that were indeed radioactive. This affected the quality of the manufactured jewelry, consequently poisoning the customers who purchased them. In addition, according to our investigation into the explosion, it turns out that one of the warehouse keepers was smoking, which was a direct violation of the rules. The cigarette butt came into contact with the explosive raw materials, causing the explosion. The two people who were killed in the explosion were proven to be the warehouse keepers who had tampered with the raw materials before p>
After hearing what Judson said, the crowd broke into discussion.
“Seriously p>
“The victims of the explosion were the two warehouse keepers who tampered with the raw materials? That can’t be a coincidence p>
“It’s a cover-up! Benton Group is just trying to hide the truth p>
Chaos broke loose as people drew their own conclusions on the matter.
Reporters swarmed around the stage, firing countless questions at Judson.
“Is that the truth p>
“How could the people behind the radioactive materials conveniently die in the explosion? Is it really just an accident p>
Judson suddenly broke into a grin. “Of course it wasn’t an accident p>
Everyone gasped in shock. Judson’s words attracted the attention of everyone in the room.

The reporters were all excited by his controversial statement.
“What do you mean by that p>
“If it wasn’t an accident, then what was it p>
“What secrets is Benton Group hiding p>
Judson’s eyes turned cold. “What I said just now was Benton Group’s official statement, but I never said it was the truth p>
“Are you implying that Benton Group is lying? So what’s the truth p>
“As the person in charge of Benton Group’s branch factory in France, I shouldn’t be saying this. But as a man of integrity, my conscience has been weighing on me, so I’ve decided to tell you all the truth today!” Judson winced, as though it was difficult for him to make up his mind.
Watching Judson’s performance on the stage, Annabel’s expression darkened. As expected, the real reason why Judson wanted to hold a press conference was to throw Benton Group under the bus.
However, he had underestimated both Rupert and Annabel.
Judson was nothing but a contemptible scoundrel.
Annabel sneered inwardly. He could be complacent for a few more minutes.
