LittleNovelChapter 506 Stephen's face turned ashen when he saw Howard and the others' statements.
At that moment, his mind was completely blank. Even his soul felt numb. Why were these people kicking him while he was down? Did they want to force him to the brink of death? Did he do anything wrong to them? They had clearly taken so many benefits from him! "What should I do? What should I do now?" Stephen was so panicked that he could not think of a solution.
His assistant was also on the verge of breaking down. He could barely fend off the reporters wanting an interview and had to ask security to keep them away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, many people online were talking about Stephen. The news about him not being the Grand Marshal's mentee overshadows all trending topics.
"Is Stephen the Grand Marshal's mentee or not?" "If he's not the Grand Marshal's mentee, that means he's an imposter. Isn't that a crime?" "If the news is true and Stephen has nothing to do with the Grand Marshal, then he should be executed!" "Who exactly is the Grand Marshal's mentee?" "I feel like Stephen isn't related to the Grand Marshal. His current capabilities don't match the kind of person who could make Riveria's economy soar." The people only cared about two things now. First, what exactly was Stephen's relationship with the Grand Marshal, and two, who was the real mentee of the Grand Marshal? Speople, who had been secretly investigating, used this opportunity to reveal their findings.
"Stephen only cto Riveria half a year ago. The person managing Riveria before him was someone else entirely. According to the data, it wasn't George Lowe either." With the new information, more people believed that Stephen was indeed impersonating the Grand Marshal's mentee.
"This is outrageous. The Grand Marshal gave his blood, sweat, tears, and even his life. What exactly is Stephen trying to do?" "We demand answers, both for the Grand Marshal and for ourselves!" Stephen did not dare to look at his phone, afraid of seeing all the hate directed at him.
Nolan watched gleefully. This was the result he wanted. Once Stephen was struck down, he would let go and Nolan could take over Hill City.
In the metropolis, the Quinns and Simon also heard about what was happening.
Simon immediately ordered the deletion of the online content and contacted platforms to lower the hype. He even had the accounts of those Spreading the information banned. Then, he reached out to Howard and the others.
"How much do you want to stop this?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe tried to use money to get Howard and the others to change their statement and say that it was false, that Stephen was the Grand Marshal's mentee, and someone else had bribed them to discredit Stephen deliberately. This tactic had always been useful. No one could resist the lure of cash. However, this time...
"No," Howard refused bluntly. "We already have enough money to last a lifetime."
They had made billions before they left Riveria and conducted business using that money. Now they had close to ten billion dollars. They did not care about the millions that Simon was offering.
Simon took a deep breath. "What do you want? If it's not money, do you want power?" He could agree to that hugreator too. He could arrange new identities En for them so they could return to Riveria. Alternatively, they could move elsewhere, and he would secure a stable job for them. "We don't care about the power you're offering." Howard refused again.
Simon grew angry. "What exactly do you want?" In his experience, almost no one would refuse the Quinn family's money and power. Even if they did, the Quinns would find their weakness and exploit them.
