Chapter 403 Show No Respect for Laws
Catherine reached out her hand to knock down the camera. The journalist was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect Catherine to be so fierce. A camera would cost a few ten thousand dollars. However, he collected himself at once and scolded Catherine with a stern look.
“What’s wrong with you? How could you hit me? I’m a journalist. It’s my job to take photos.”
He was surrounded by journalists. To stir things up, other journalists all showed support for the one who had been hit.
“Exactly! How can you beat him?”
“You show no respect for laws at all!”
Catherine glanced around and settled her gloomy gaze on everyone. Her eyes were as sharp as arrows.
Some journalists who were cowardly had subconsciously stayed back. Even those bold journalists didn’t dare to make a sound.
Even the journalist who stirred up the trouble ceased his trap!
Catherine took a step forward and grabbed his collar in front of all.
She lifted him off the ground directly. The journalist didn’t expect Catherine to be so tough. Instantly, he was stupefied.
He merely wanted to do his job. He didn’t want to risk his life. A glint of fierceness flashed across Catherine’s eyes. Her beautiful face looked rather terrifying as if being covered with a layer of ice.
Her voice was as cold as frost.
“Audrey is a star. You’re a journalist. It’s your job to take photos of her, but you shouldn’t hurt her!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Show no respect for laws? Hmph…”
Catherine snorted coldly. “How about I take her to check her wound and see who attacked first?”
The journalist knew that he had hurt Audrey indeed. Yet, he didn’t expect Audrey’s sister to be so tough and fight back at once.
Catherine threw him aside as he didn’t respond. Then, she leaned aside and reached out her finger to point at the people who had said awful things to Audrey.
“Just now, you said Audrey came to the hospital for an abortion!
“You said Audrey was pregnant!
“You asked who the baby’s father was!
“Am I right?”
The journalists whom Catherine had pointed at didn’t know what she wanted to do.
They only felt that Catherine’s momentum was so powerful that they were all awed and wanted to run for their lives.
Catherine withdrew the report result from Audrey’s hand in front of them and then showed the medicine to them.
“Look carefully. This is the statement for the stomach flu examination. And this is the doctor’s diagnosis report. This is the medicine!
“Audrey merely has the stomach flu. So, you’re all slandering her!”
Audrey stood aside, watching Catherine confronting the journalists for her. She was aware of Catherine’s character. Catherine disliked explaining things and spent her words as if every word were a golden coin.
Nevertheless, for Audrey’s sake, Catherine had to explain the whole thing in front of so many people.
They were all journalists. If Catherine didn’t show evidence on the spot, Audrey would be affected no matter how hard she tried to clarify the matter later.
The most effective way was to show the evidence and slap them in the face right now. The journalists present were astonished to see the evidence in Catherine’s hands. They received a tip that Audrey was having a pregnancy test in the hospital, so they just rushed here.
This was a common practice. As long as a female star showed up at the door of the hospital, the journalists would report on their pregnancy.
Even if that was not the truth, the female star would clarify it later. Never had anyone been so tough.
Originally, they all thought things would be over after Catherine showed the diagnosis result. However, Catherine didn’t mean to let them go.
Raising the diagnosis result, Catherine settled her gaze on the journalists who had clamored just now.
“You slandered Audrey before you figured out the truth. Even though you are journalists, so what?
“Just wait for the lawyer’s letters!”
Unexpectedly, Catherine was not only tough but also acted immediately and resolutely.
Yet, the journalists weren’t that worried. After all, this had happened before.
The case would be delayed. Even if the journalists lost the case, they would be required to make an apology letter in public at worst.
After all, Audrey still had to stay in showbiz. She couldn’t offend them.
Several journalists often covered entertainment news. They all knew each other and then exchanged glances. They decided to work together to confront Catherine.
Before they made a sound, a dozen men in uniform arrived in a hurry and protected Catherine and Audrey.
The journalists saw the spokesman of the Duncan Corporation bowing to Catherine respectfully before they recovered from astonishment. They were slack-jawed in astoundment. The spokesman for the president’s office of the Duncan Corporation actually bowed to Catherine!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPaxton stood in front of Catherine respectfully. “Miss Swann, the car has been ready for you. Leave the rest to me!
Catherine slightly nodded, signaling to him to take over the matter. After getting the approval, Paxton turned around and looked at the journalists’ names called by Catherine.
“Guys, you’ll receive the lawyer’s letter from the Duncan Corporation later. Our lawyers will file a sue against you!”
The journalists were all shocked and the others didn’t dare to make a sound. They were ordinary people. How could they confront the competent lawyers of the Duncan Corporation?
Everybody knew that the Duncan Corporation’s competent lawyers were ever-victorious and never lost any case.
Previously, in an infringement case, an ordinary lawyer could only make the defendant make an economic compensation.
Yet, the competent lawyers of the Duncan Corporation directly made the defendant go broke. Their ability was imaginable. No one expected Audrey’s sister’s backer would be so powerful!
Now they were really in big trouble. And even if they regretted their actions, there was nothing they could do.
Then, Paxton said to the journalists present in a warning tone, “Guys, things have been very clear. Audrey came here for medical treatment only. I hope you can show some respect. Don’t leave any photos to bring trouble for yourselves!”
As soon as Paxton finished speaking, the journalists present all took out their cameras. They deleted the photos and videos right away. None of them dared to delay.
After all, if they were targeted by the Duncan Corporation, they couldn’t make a living in Zerwick for the rest of their life. Paxton looked around and found they were more or less done. Then, he escorted Catherine to get in the car.
Since the Swanns assaulted Catherine, Branden had ordered Paxton to drive for Catherine as long as she went out. Branden would be worried if others drove for her.
After they got in the car, Audrey was still a bit at sea.
Her phone aside rang. She found it was from Kim and hastened to pick up the call.
As soon as the call was put through, Kim’s voice came, “Audrey, how are you doing now? Are you alright? Why were you caught at the door of the hospital? I’ll be right there. Hang in there. Don’t answer any questions. Got it?”
After Kim asked a series of questions, Audrey finally got a chance to talk.
“Kim, you don’t need to come. Catherine has dealt with the matter for me. I’m not pregnant. I’ve got the stomach flu only. The journalists won’t dare to cover this matter. Today, there won’t be any news about me!”
