Chapter 1030

Chapter 1030 Scapegoat Unbeknownst to Susan, the conversation earlier was deliberately arranged for her to hear. As Susan walked away, the two people who spoke earlier called Edward. “Mr. Jackson, we’ve completed your request.”

Susan was getting angrier in the ward. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had become a pitiful girl in everyone’s eyes.

I don’t need anyone to pity me! When Rorian came to visit, he saw Susan’s angry look and asked, “What’s the matter? Who’s upset you?”

“Daddy, you came here just in time. Get Albert; I want to sue Eunice for intentional assault!” Then, Susan related the conversation she had just heard in the garden.

After hearing that, Rorian turned thunderous and supported Susan’s approach. As a result, Eunice lost her chance to struggle and was taken into custody for instigating a crime.

Susan then promptly revealed the news to the media, which went viral online. “Is this really Miss Eunice?”

“I suddenly feel like she cheated on me!” “Sofia Symphony did not release any comments about such a major incident. The previous victim was right—Miss Sofia is covering up for her student.”

Of course, Eunice’s loyal fans also didn’t believe their idol would do such a thing, and they defended her on the Internet.

“There must be some misunderstanding here. Eunice is not such a despicable person.”

“If Eunice is evil, why would Miss Sofia take her as a disciple?”

“Don’t be swayed by public opinion. We must trust our idol and believe in Miss Sofia.”

However, no matter how much they argued, it didn’t do much good.

After all, it was a fact that Eunice was in custody, and the police wouldn’t wrongfully arrest the innocent.

Over time, a growing number of netizens attacked Sofia Symphony and demanded for a response.

Even Group Two, which was under Eunice, was affected and was forced to stop all performances.

Other people were more or less affected as well.

Hence, Walter was getting anxious as he read the news online.

If this continues, my daughter’s reputation, which she has worked so hard to build for over a decade, will be ruined. My company may even be implicated!

When Walter’s assistant saw Walter was about to get a stroke, he gave an idea.

“If we want to get Miss Eunice out, someone has to take the blame for her.”

Upon hearing that, Walter thought for a moment and felt it was feasible. Then, he asked, “Who do you think will be the scapegoat?”

“It’s best to be someone related to this case to convince the public.”

When the words fell, Walter already had a candidate in mind.

If I have to find someone related to the case, Soren is the best scapegoat.

That night, Walter pulled some strings to meet the man.

“I’ll give five million for you to cover for my daughter. I promise to take care of your family while you serve your sentence.”

Walter didn’t beat around the bushes and directly stated his intentions; the rewards were generous too.

Soren was moved, but he didn’t say yes.

It was because he hadn’t forgotten what Edward had said earlier, and he didn’t want to stay in jail for the rest of his life.

Seeing Soren being silent, Walter thought he was unhappy with the price, so he raised the price.

“Ten million, which is enough to keep your family rich for the rest of their lives.”

Soren clenched his fists and used up all his control to keep himself from nodding.

Although money is necessary, it is not as important as freedom. With freedom, I can still make money.

“I’m sorry. I will decline your offer.”

Walter was stunned to hear that.

He didn’t expect Soren would reject it.

However, Walter swore to resolve the case tonight, so he wouldn’t accept any rejection.

“You should think about it again. I heard that you have a son. You don’t want anything bad to happen to him, do you?”

The next day, not long after Nicholas entered the company, Edward hurriedly knocked on the door and walked in.
