Chapter 195
Accidental love
In the meeting room on the third floor of the Dahlia, Rick and other senior executives, together with the low-key Anna, appeared on the speaking stage.
Anna was praised as a graceful, quiet and low-key lady before. However, her inconspicuousness was deemed as camouflage now. She was said to a scheming actress who loved publicity stunt.
The reporters and fans were waiting to tear off her hypocrisy and reveal her true nature.
Working in the showbiz for many years, Rick, of course, knew their thoughts. He turned on the microphone. âAttention, please. From now on, Anna is an official actress of the Dahlia. Although there are many judgments against Anna, we trust her. Therefore, a press conference is held today. If you have any questions...â
âFire away. But you must ask in order.â
The reporters were ready, with numerous questions on their notebooks. If they asked together, Anna couldnât resist it, and it would be very chaotic.
One reporter raised her hand compliantly. She asked calmly, âCould you please tell us the whole story about Mary?â
Since Rick warmed them yesterday, no one dared to stir up trouble.
Rick winked at Anna, suggesting that she could speak freely. Anna took the microphone closer and faced the lenses and flashes calmly. âI did go to the hospital and do the matching test. But after that, Mary didnât contact me. I knew nothing about her illness. She was already seriously ill, which you and I knew later.â
âBut Maryâs friends said they had visited you many times. But you used money to bribe them and even insulted them.â
Anna stared at the furious reporter and asked with a smile, âAre you sure the person is Maryâs friend? Have you seen her in person?â
The reporter was suddenly startled, not predicting that. âBut you did agree to save her. Now, Mary was dead. Shouldnât you be blamed?â
âYouâre starting a rumor!â Anna suddenly looked cold. Staring at the reporter, she hissed, âHow can you assert that Mary was dead without investigation? If you keep saying that after you know the truth, I think you just want to report the so-called facts you want.â
âMary wasnât in her ward and disappeared for many days. You hid her trail because of the rumor, donât you?â
Hid the trail?
Anna didnât expect the rumors were so ominous.
âMary isnât dead!â
âNo matter how you defend, you donât have proofs at all!â
Anna stood up and glared at the arguing reporter. âIf I have evidence, you should kneel and apologize to me.â
âWhy? Anna, donât go too far!â The reporter laughed triumphantly. In her opinion, Anna was struggling in vain. Soon, Anna would become a joke in the showbiz.
âAs a reporter, you start a rumor and make trouble, impairing the reputations of Mary and mine. What have we done wrong? Why do you keep judging us?â
The reporter chuckled. âOkay, if you can prove it, Iâll kneel and apologize!â
Everyone heard their conversation.
Anna took a deep breath. She wouldnât choose to do that, if she didnât have any choice. Eyeing Annaâs nod, Rick immediately said to the Bluetooth headset, âTake her in. Be careful.â
A minute later, the door was pushed open. Sylvia pushed Mary in.
Mary looked around at those indiscriminate and ignorant reporters and said calmly, âIâm Mary.â
Meanwhile, Sylvia took out her ID card, because Rick had told them before the media wouldnât trust them without evidence.
The reporters were all shocked. How could a person, who had been missing for several days, suddenly appear? Didnât someone say that her body was secretly buried by Anna?
âHow ridiculous you are to trust the rumors. I just had an operation. When I woke up, I was suddenly reported as a dead person. How can you idiots become reporters?â
Maryâs appearance was enough to clarify everything.
The patient concerned had shown up. Could it be false?
Was she really Mary?
Mary hated the dark side of the media. They criticized Anna again and again for newsjacking. As Annaâs fan, Mary couldnât bear it.
Accidental love ï¤Chapter 194 His Lifelong Gentle Companionship Therefore, Mary let Sylvia help her up. She shouted solemnly, âI really want to curse you. Are you smoking? My illness is my own business. Do I need you to call the shots for me?â
âAnna is my favorite star, my friend. I never want her to donate the marrows. Since you have such a sense of justice and argue she must save me, why donât you do the matching test for me?â
âThe netizen who claimed to be my friend is Kevin, an agent of the Ole!â
âHe framed Anna and made up these stories. The evidence you want, here!â
Sylvia showed the recordings, photos, and the messages taken from the nurse.
All evidence was projected on the big screen behind them, demonstrating that Kevin was the culprit and deceived everyone.
âBased on these photos and messages, all of you assert that Anna was a killer. Are you qualified reporters?â Mary glared at them. âDonât you feel ashamed?â
âIâm fine. Besides, Anna hasnât done those ridiculous things. She never forgets me. More importantly, she has helped me find the most suitable voluntary donor. Iâll have surgery soon.â
âYou should keep your eyes open. What kind of person is she? If anyone dares to slander her again, Iâll cooperate with the Dahlia and sue all of you!
Accept the full consequences of your action! Since you donât know how to restrict yourself, the laws will teach you well!â
Rick really admired her performance. He just guided her a little bit, but she did it so well.
Hearing her words, the reporters were speechless. Everything was unpredictable. The one who insulted Anna recoiled secretly, blushing and lowering her head.
She hoped that everyone would forget their bet.
