Chapter 1219: Chapter 1216
Anger!
Towering anger!
The company’s situation was already chaotic enough!
The hard-earned support, all because of Jessica Wright, led to a complete halt in collaboration.
What should have been an ally, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, became the company’s enemy!
“You still dare say you have no ties to Oliver Walker?”
“Jessica Wright, what exactly is your agenda?”
“Dammit!”
“…”
Crazy!
Everyone’s gone mad!
The company’s senior executives, full of raging anger!
Jessica Wright, faced with so many questions, wouldn’t explain!
Perhaps she was too exhausted to explain!
Before she returned, she had already anticipated this outcome, and with her severe injuries, her complexion was exceptionally pale.
Looking around at the more than a dozen people present, only Lucas Davis wore an anxious expression, “Miss, please explain!”
He was frantic!
If anyone here had a deep relationship with Jessica Wright, it was only him!
Even in Wesley Wright’s eyes, Jessica Wright was nothing but a pawn in his hands.
All because she was not a boy, incapable of inheriting the family business!
“You have no right to speak here!”
After a furious shout from Wesley Wright, he leaped forward, leaving his seat, and with one palm strike, sent Lucas, who had spoken out of turn, flying over ten meters away to the ground!
“Boom…”
“Cough cough… blargh…”
Lucas, clutching his chest, his face covered in pain, coughed up a clump of black blood!
These were the rules of Wright Company!
No matter how high Lucas’s status, he was still just a slave with a different surname!
“Uncle De!”
In Jessica Wright’s impassive face, there finally appeared a slight change, and immediately after, she took steps forward, intending to help him up, but just then…
“If you dare to assist him, I’ll certainly administer family punishment today!”
Wesley Wright menacingly threatened, “Don’t believe me? Just try it!”
He now suspected the plane crash was the handiwork of Jessica Wright and Lucas Davis.
It was all just a façade!
With today’s technology, how could a plane possibly have a system failure?
His eyes were filled with murderous intent!
“Father!”
Jessica Wright’s mouth curled into an odd smile, “You show no compassion at all!”
“Uncle De is my mentor!”
“He has made great contributions to the company, and shouldn’t just be a slave to be slaughtered at your whim!”
She laughed and walked, completely ignoring Wesley Wright, who was seething with rage behind her!
Even in the face of threats, she reached out both hands, intending to personally help Lucas up!
But seeing this, Lucas hastily got up and knelt on the ground, shouting loudly, “Head of the family, the fault is entirely mine!”
“I’m willing to bear all the blame alone!”
“This matter has nothing to do with Miss, none whatsoever!”
“If you must kill, then kill me instead!”
He was so abject, perhaps because his life was inherently worthless, but more so because he had noticed something odd about Jessica Wright, and so he wished to offer his life in exchange for the awakening of Jessica Wright’s spirit!
To not remain as lost as she was now!
“Clang…”
The next moment, Wesley Wright drew his katana, and with a cold rebuke, said, “Since you so desire death, then I shall grant you death!”
Did he want to kill?
He did not want to!
After all, this was a time when every person was needed!
But the problem was, if he didn’t give the Federal Bureau of Investigation an explanation, the situation he would face next could only get tougher!
Under the reflection of lights, the katana cast a chilling gleam!
No one among the company’s senior executives cared about the life and death of Lucas.
To them, he was merely a slightly more formidable slave.
“Swoosh…”
But just as the katana was about to strike at the throat, Jessica Wright suddenly stood in front of Lucas in a shifted position, her eyes cold and defiant…
