Chapter 1372 Chapter 1372 Chapter 1372 A Pawn Destined to Be Sacrificed Nobody could have predicted such an outcome. People simply chose which brand to buy from in the past, but it had turned into a boycott.

Stocks of scompanies were visibly plummeting. Many official brand accounts had gone silent, and ongoing livestreams had been stopped.

Alden, the person in charge of Oakwood District, never received Kenton's solution in the end. Even ten minutes after he hung up the phone, he still naively believed that the Wray family would back him and those above wouldn't treat him as disposable.

However, when the fake video's location was revealed to be from the Wray Group, he knew he was doomed! Alden couldn't stop trembling. With his glasses on, he looked again at the money he had hidden in the wall. It crossed his mind to turn himself in.

However, as soon as he reached for the phone, it started ringing.

The voice on the other end was elderly but carried a strong sense of authority. "Alden, how could you do something so disappointing? Do you think you're worthy of your position? Don't you feel any remorse toward your mom back home?" Alden was deeply grateful to his elderly mom. He had cfrom a poor background, worked his way out of the countryside, and climbed to where he was now. He understood perfectly what the other person was implying.

It wasn't just a threat. After all, making someone disappear was so easy for them that it wouldn't raise anyone's suspicions.

The person on the other end sighed and said, "I always thought you were a smart person, but how did you becso foolish this time? "Rest assured that your past deeds won't be questioned. You will still get the respect you're due. Now, go and turn yourself in." The statement seemed like a suggestion on the surface, but it was actually a form of coercion.

Alden understood perfectly. As he looked up at the ceiling, his hands trembled. It turned out that they already knew whatever he intended to do.

"I'm sorry for making you worry. Rest assured that I know what to do," Alden said before hanging up the phone. He was well aware that he was just a pawn destined to be sacrificed. At this point, the only way for sthings to remain undiscovered was for him to stay silent. The people above had no intention of rescuing him.

Alden glanced again at the family photo on his desk, which included his wife, children, and mom. Without a word, he took out the SIM card from his phone, broke it in two, and then picked up the photo from the desk. His face was pale, and he was sweating profusely.

He removed his glasses and looked down before opening the window. A moment later, a loud bang echoed through the room.

Before the people from the prosecutor's office even arrived at the door, the whole Food and Environment Department was already in chaos.

Alden's secretary, Mike Williamson, had planned to get Alden to address the online comments as the situation was out of control. As he knocked on the door, the loud bang left him in shock.

In the distance, someone pulled back a telescope. "At least he showed n sresponsibility. He didn't say a En word and just jumped."

On the phone, the person in the car remained unseen. His voice was neither warm nor cold but quite m ve elderly. Navoring the Wray family is one thing, but mistreating our own industries like this... he really should face justice by taking his own life." "Yes, I know what to do," someone replied.

was completely Such an incident occurred as soon as the car from the prosecutor's office arrived. It was unexpected. Even Kenton turned pale when he heard about it. "What did you say? Mr. Thorne committed suicide?"

Mike wiped his sweat and nodded.

"There hasn't been any officiabnews, but everyone on our side has En witnessed it." Ashburn X
