Chapter 168

The press conference hosted by Jacobsma Group had been ongoing for the entire morning at the Woolpackton Grand Hotel in

the luxurious top-floor hall. Reporters from major media outlets eagerly rushed forward, vying to interview Peter Schneider, who

stood at the podium.

“We are extremely grateful for everyone’s enthusiasm!”

As the head of the Schneider family, Peter had experienced numerous grand occasions, but never before had he hosted such a

large- scale press conference. The smile on his face was vibrant.

“Our Jacobsma Group has hired more than 30 top experts, local and abroad, to develop the Jacobsma Oral Essence. We

invested billions. and finally determined the final formula for the oral essence.”

He looked down at the audience, his pride unmistakable. “I assure you, the food safety of the oral essence absolutely complies

with health standards, and its health effects surpass all similar products on the market. We hope everyone will actively report on

it and bring good news to middle-aged and elderly consumers!”

Thunderous applause erupted!

“Mister Schneider!”

A beautiful female journalist in the audience frowned and asked, “As far as I know, the New Chesire Group in Ol‘ Mare seems to

be developing health products, with a significant effort in early publicity. Meanwhile, your Jacobsma Group suddenly announces

successful research and development without any prior notice. Is there any hidden secret behind this?”

Peter's face changed slightly, and then he laughed heartily, arrogantly lifting his head. “The New Chesire Group is insignificant.

No matter how much they publicize, how can they compare to our Jacobsma Group?”

“Regrettably, I can only tell New Chesire Group that Jacobsma Group is stronger. No matter how hard they try, they can only

follow behind and imitate, never hoping to surpass us!”

Applause echoed continuously, camera lights flickered, and the triumphant look on Peter’s face became even more pronounced.

“Hehe!” Damon sat at the interview desk, his eyes slightly narrowed, a fleeting trace of satisfaction in his eyes.

The New Chesire Group? Alexander?

‘Daring to oppose our Schneider family, daring to kill Yorick, just wait for the retaliation from our Schneider family! Stealing the

formula for

Life One is only the first step in our revenge!"

“It's time.” Damon looked down at the time on his watch, then slowly pressed his hands down, giving the reporters a slight smile.

“To

thank everyone for their support of our Jacobsma Group, Mister Peter has specially arranged a celebration banquet. Please join

us!*

Reporters cheered excitedly, shouting. “Thank you, Mister Peter! Thank you, Mister Damon!”

It was a joyous atmosphere!

Just at that moment, a hearty laughter suddenly echoed from the entrance, resonating through the entire hall “Mister Damon,

isn't it a bit

too early for a celebration banquet?”

Swoosh!

The journalists and photographers in the room, along with the Schneider family, were momentarily stunned. All eyes turned

toward the

entrance.

Alexander Kane!

He was dressed in the New Chesire Group security chief's suit, with a work badge hanging on his chest. He walked confidently

toward the interview platform. He wore a faint smile as he approached the Schneider family.

“Is it you?!”

The Schneider family was taken aback but quickly regained composure as they stood up reflexively. Alexander would not dare to

create a

scene with so many iournalists present

15:39

“Alexander, this is a press conference hosted by the Schneider family. You're not welcome here!”

Considering the presence of the media, Damon clearly did not want to escalate the situation. He stared at Alexander and said

firmly.” Whatever you want to do, please leave immediately!”

Alexander slowly walked up to the interview platform, smiling ambiguously. “In such a hurry to drive me away? What are you

afraid of? Is there something Jacobsma Group wants to hide from the public eye?”

Crack!

With just one sentence, Alexander put Damon in a difficult position, and Peter was already furious.

Peter slammed the table and shouted, “Alexander, there are journalists present, we don’t want to waste time talking to you!

Leave if you have any sense, or don’t blame the Schneider family for being impolite!”

Alexander shook his head slowly, his smile deepening. “Mister Peter, I don’t understand your urgency. The Jacobsma Oral

Essence is grandly listed, and I came to congratulate you. Instead of appreciating it, you’re pushing me away as if there’s

something shady with the Jacobsma Group. Doesn't it sound a bit unjust?”

“You...”

Peter hesitated, a sly smile forming on his lips. “Alexander, did our Jacobsma Oral Essence steal the spotlight from your New

Chesire Group? Did Amber send you to cause trouble? Haha!”

“To tell you the truth, the Schneider family wants everyone in Tormora to know that in front of our Schneider family, the so-called

Chesire Group is nothing compared to us!”

Alexander chuckled lightly, his expression turning cold. “Peter and Damon colluded to maliciously steal business secrets, took

the complete formula of New Chesire Group’s Life One, and still have the nerve to hold a press conference?”

“I really want to know where you get the courage!”

Hiss!

As Alexander’s words fell, the entire hall erupted into a commotion. The journalists present were eager for a sensational

revelation, especially regarding conflicts between major corporations. Any bit of information could make headlines.

Awave of excitement swept through the crowd. Microphones and cameras were pointed at Alexander, and questions filled the

air. “Mister Kane, is what you're saying true? Did Jacobsma Group really steal New Chesire Group’s business secrets?”

“Mister Kane, do you have any evidence? Without evidence, Mister Schneider might sue you for defamation. Have you

considered that? Some reporters aimed their questions at the Schneider family, their faces full of anticipation. “Mister Schneider,

is the formula of Jacobsma Oral Essence really plagiarized? What is your opinion on Mister Kane’s accusations?”

“Defamation, it’s definitely defamation!”

Damon, having already sent Yovanni to Umbracia, was brimming with confidence. He pointed at Alexander's nose, sneering.

“New Chesire Group failed to compete with us and is maliciously accusing our Jacobsma Group!”

“Alexander, is this the extent of your abilities? Journalists can testify; defamation leads to prison!”

Prison? Heh!

Alexander smiled, turned around, and pointed to the entrance of the hall.

“Whether it’s defamation or not, will soon be revealed.”

“Mister Peter, Mister Damon, look who’s here!”
