Chapter 148 Alvin's Trick
"The skin care products of our company have never had any quality problems. Why did it happen this
time?" Antonio finally stared at Alvin.
Yes, although there was not yet any evidence, Antonio intuitively felt that Alvin had done this.
These days, Alvin often overstepped the limits, but Antonio had always turned a blind eye to it because
Alvin was his uncle. But this time, Alvin sacrificed the company's interests in order to bring Antonio
down.
The company's interest was Antonio's bottom line, so it was impossible for him allow Alvin to overstep
the bounds.
Antonio wanted to give him a small warning. Of course, if he had evidence, that would be a different
story.
Without waiting for them to answer, he continued, "The cosmetics we produced are subject to strict
inspection before they are transported and sold, so it's s almost impossible to have any quality
problems. But now, there are a few skin care products with quality problems in the market. I have
reason to believe that there is a traitor in our company!"
What he said caused another stir in the conference room. Traitor was an extremely sensitive word for
any enterprise.
"The traitor is highly likely to be one of us who are in the conference room." his eyes gradually became
keener, "Although I have no ready evidence, I have a general guess in my mind. If the traitor is really
present, I advise you to stop as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'll send you into prison when I find the
evidence!"
His words scared everyone, including those who hadn't done anything wrong.
Antonio secretly gave Alvin a glance when he was about to finish his words. Alvin looked straight
ahead without any expression on his face.
After the meeting, Antonio went to the General Manager of the cosmetics department and asked him to
carefully check the sales records of cosmetics in the past two months to see if there was something
wrong with the whole batch of cosmetics.
However, Antonio wouldn't change his plan even if there was no problem with the whole batch of
cosmetics. After all, the Baron Group had been in the line of fire. He could only use such a method to Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
pacify customers.
He checked this mainly to make sure if it was unqualified inspection that led to the outflow of
unqualified cosmetics. If not, then it meant that someone deliberately gave those women the cosmetics
with quality problems.
Back to his office, Alvin drew the curtains warily. Just now Antonio said that he would hold a press
conference tomorrow to put an end to the incident that was getting worse. How much effort did he
spend on setting this trap? How was it possible that Antonio could deal with it so simply? Alvin put on a
seeming smile.
He took out his cell phone and dialed the number that he seldom dialed.
Adelaide frowned when she saw the name of the person calling her. In addition to striking Antonio as
allies, she had little contact with that person. She answered the phone and that person quickly
analyzed the situation to her briefly.
This time Antonio would not have a chance to rise again?
She agreed only after a few seconds of hesitation.
Adelaide was at the venue where people came and went. She was wearing a demure white dress and
was still beautiful without any makeup. However, the dark circles under her eyes were very obvious
without the foundation.
When reporters were notified of it, they didn't dare to delay at all and hurried to the venue with their
photographers. Tonight, reporters were from big newspapers and media in J City. They were very quick
to spread news.
Adelaide was used by someone, but she didn't know it. When there was only five minutes left before
the start, she fixed her hair with her fingers and strode up the stairs with her head held high. The venue
was well arranged and all the people who should come were here. She cleared her throat, adjusted the
microphone to the appropriate height and delayed for a while. Soon it was eight o'clock.
The security guard at the door closed the door. The lights at the venue was very well-lighted. After she
deliberately pinned a strand of hair behind her ears, the bruise on her forehead, which was caused by
Antonio, was instantly exposed to them.
She took a deep breath, as if she could finally expressed herself freely at this moment after years of
torture and pain, "Hello, let me introduce myself first. My name is Adelaide Swift, and I am the wife of
Antonio, the president of the Baron Group."
The reporters who successful got the seat in the first row were very delighted. They waved their hands
and motioned for the cameramen to follow them. The reporter who asked Antonio tough questions in
that morning asked so loudly that everyone present could hear, "Hello, Mrs. Baron, I saw bruise on
your forehead. Did Mr. Antonio do this to you?"
Adelaide looked at her when she heard her voice. She held back her tears when she pulled her hair to
her chest in a hurry, waved her hands nervously and explained, "No, no, it has nothing to do with
Antonio. Don't mistake it."
It looked like a clumsy denial of the truth. The more she explained, the more she confirmed that
Antonio was a bad man. They were all amazed and took clear pictures of the bruise on her forehead.
Adelaide had a skin as white as snow, so the bruise on her forehead was very obvious. Besides, she
didn't cover it up with makeup, so it was a bit frightening in the pictures and videos.
Another reporter kindly took out a packet of paper towels to Adelaide. She hurriedly said thanks,
sobbed and continued, "Originally, I didn't want to reveal it, but as a woman, I really cannot bear to let
others be blinded by Antonio." She took out a paper towel and wiped her tears, looking at the camera
poorly, "He looks cold and serious, but in fact he is really a bad man. He often beats and scolds me
since we married two years ago. Last year, he...he had an affair with my younger sister."
What she said instantly caused a stir. They firmly believed that Adelaide was pure and gentle, so some
of them would believe it even she said that Antonio had gone through plastic surgery at this moment.
The reporter quickly thought about her words in her mind and didn't find any loopholes in her words. As
a woman, she used to like the handsome man she saw. As the only handsome man in the industry,
Antonio was knew by everyone.
"Excuse me, does your younger sister refer to Clarissa Swift, the daughter of the boss of the Swift’s
Group, which had been acquired?"
The reporter asked after hearing what she said. Adelaide nodded and proved that her guess was
correct.
She took out a USB flash drive from the bag she was carrying and handed it to the staff here. Soon, the
pregnancy test sheets for her and Clarissa were shown on the screen behind her.
The photographer got very close and took pictures or videoed it.
