Chapter 267 No One Knew Whether Victor Was Alive Or Dead Everyone looked at the person in front of them at the same time. When Maria saw clearly who was coming in, the corner of her mouth which had been raised slightly froze imperceptibly. Glancing at the reporters present indifferently, Carson walked up to Maria and smiled politely with a meaningful smile in his long narrow eyes.
âMrs. Sullivan, long time no see. You are still as beautiful as before.â As he spoke, he looked at Maria up and down. Today, Maria specially appeared in front of the public without any makeup. No matter how one looked at her, she seemed to have nothing to do with the two words âstunningâ and âbeautifulâ.
âCarson, arenât you abroad?â On the day of Odinâs accident, she had spent a lot of time sending Carson abroad, and it would take at least a month for him to come back. How could he come back now? Looking at the smile at the corner of Carsonâs mouth, a thought flashed through Mariaâs mind. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat and cold sweat began to seep from her back.
âWas it because Did Victor know my plan from the very beginning? So Carson didnât leave Apliaria at all? No, itâs impossible.â Without further thinking, Maria couldnât wait to deny this idea. If Victor had known her plan, how could the press conference be held normally? Moreover, she had received the news ten minutes ago that Victor had a car accident and his life was still uncertain!
Thinking of this, Maria calmed down soon. âHow did you know I went abroad?â Carson said with his eyebrows rising slightly. Mariaâs eyes dodged his for a moment. After all, she was Mrs. Sullivan of the Sullivan Group. She smiled. When she heard Carsonâs question, she didnât show any guilty expression.
âYou also know that I have been in low spirits for the sake of Odinâs matter these days. My close friends came to see me and mentioned it to me. So I knew it. And Iâm not sure if you really went abroad.â She lowered her eyes, with a touch of sadness in her eyes. Seeing this, everyone felt sorry for her.
Although Odin was no match for Victor, it was undeniable that he was also a man in a million. They didnât expect his death, which made them couldnât help but feel sorry for him. âMrs. Sullivan, Iâm sorry for your loss.â Maria raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes and nodded. Then she naturally shifted the subject to the press conference. âCarson, what did you mean by saying that?â âWhat?â Carson asked knowingly. He looked at Maria in confusion, and then pretended to remember something, âMrs. Sullivan, do you mean that I just said you were too anxious?â . âThe corners of Mariaâs mouth twitched for a moment, but she didnât say anything. âWhatâs wrong? Mrs. Sullivan, am I wrong?â
âCarson, you might just come back so you donât know what happened. I said that just now because Victor encountered some trouble on the way here and might not be able to make it in time. But the reporters are all here, and it will definitely have a bad impact if the press conference doesnât start yet.
So I think Iâll be in charge of this press conference.â âOh, I see. I misunderstood you.â Maria was speechless. âBut judging from your expression, it seems that you donât think there is any misunderstanding at all.â With one hand in his pocket, Carson looked at the time on his watch and said, âThey did encounter some trouble halfway.
But thanks for your concern. The problem has been solved. The press conference will begin in half an hour.â âWhat⦠what?â Hearing this, Maria widened her eyes and said, âHow could it be possible?
Carson, how could you say it like this?! Do you know how important this press conference means to the Sullivan Groupâ¦â
âI know.â The smile on the corners of Carsonâs mouth disappeared and he suddenly interrupted Maria.
ââ¦â¦â Mariaâs heart skipped a beat. âBecause the press conference is so important that it can only be hosted by Mr. Sullivan himself. Donât worry, Vic will be here in time.â âWhy could he show up?!
We donât even know whether he is alive or dead now!â Maria became flustered. She had prepared for such a long time just in order to regain her sovereignty in the press conference this time. But now, Carson appeared suddenly and ruined her plan, which made her speak it out without hesitation.
None knows whether Victor is alive or dead?â The people present were almost stunned when they heard the news.
