Chapter 70 I Am Trying My Best to Pursue Her
Iverson’s slender fingers rested on the microphone stand as he adjusted the height of the microphone.
The scene quieted down.
His cold and powerful voice echoed in the hall. “This press conference is for the sake of explaining the news this morning. As a public figure, it is indeed wrong to fight with others. I need to apologize for this.”
“Mr. Byran, did you admit that you hit people?”
“I heard that the person you hit was the president of the Sean Group, Halley Sean. Is that true?”
“Did you just fight for a woman? Who is that woman?”
“……”
“It’s me.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
A warm but deep voice sounded, attracting everyone’s attention.
Amanda walked up to the stage from the side. Although she didn’t have a microphone, her voice was clear and powerful. “I’m Amanda Jewell, the former general manager of the Sean Group. I’m also the ex-wife of the president of the Sean Group. Mr. Byran fought for me, but I don’t think he needs to apologize to anyone.”
There was an uproar under the stage and people were talking about it.
Iverson frowned.
Amanda glanced at him with a gentle and firm look.
A reporter immediately asked, “Why did you say that Iverson Byran doesn’t need to apologize? It’s a fact that he hit people and went to the police station.”
“I’m sure you’ve all heard that the divorce between my ex-husband, Halley Sean, and I was very unhappy, so we had some arguments last night. Fortunately, Mr. Byran arrived in time.”
“So it was ‘Hero saves beauty’?” said a female reporter. “He saved you?”
“But some people on the Internet say that you cheated on the marriage and even set up a scheme to take away the Sean Family’s property, which led to last night’s dispute. How do you explain this?”
Amanda’s heart skipped a beat and she looked at the reporter off the stage.
Wearing a mask, he obviously didn’t want others to remember his appearance.
“That’s right. After all, two people fought for her.”
The discussion under the stage became louder and louder.
“What’s your relationship with Iverson? Why would he appear downstairs at your house so late?”
“There were rumors that you reached the cooperation between the Sean Group and the Byran Group with your own strength because you used improper means. Now that you’ve left the Sean Group, the company has lost this project. How do you explain that?”
“What exactly is your relationship?”
“……”
Amanda raised her voice. “Nothing like of the kind!”
Before she could finish her words, her hand was suddenly held.
Amanda looked beside her in surprise. Iverson had stood up at some point and was holding her hand tightly, not avoiding the media and cameras at all.
As the photos were taken, people under the stage gradually quieted down. Amanda even forgot to break free.
Iverson said, “As you can see, I’m trying my best to pursue Miss Jewell.”
Everyone was shocked.
Iverson’s expression remained unchanged. He held Amanda’s hand tightly and explained to everyone, “Miss Jewell has left a deep impression on me since the first time we met. In the subsequent contact, her workability and decisiveness have impressed me even more. In my eyes, she is a perfect woman.”
People under the stage were so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard clearly.
Amanda looked at the man next to her in disbelief. He was still cold and calm, and his eyes were unfathomable. It was hard to understand. At the moment, he had confessed his love in front of so many people, which was equivalent to declaring his love to the whole world.
“It’s a pity that she was already married at that time, so I kept my distance from her and gave her the greatest respect and appreciation. But now we are all single. It’s perfectly justifiable and legal for me to pursue her.”
“Everyone, is there anything else you wish to ask?”
The reporters were all stunned.
Who would have thought that Iverson would personally announce such a sensational piece of news today?
Jamie came forward to maintain order in time, and the bodyguards also escorted Amanda and Iverson away.
The reporters who rushed up almost overturned Iverson and Amanda.
“Miss Jewell, have you agreed?”
“When did you start?”
“Are you planning to get married?”
“……”
“Today’s press conference is over. What else do you want to ask? We have someone to communicate with you.”
Jamie blocked off the door backstage and was almost squeezed into a meat pie.
What a sin! Boss, can’t you tell me in advance that you’re going to release such an explosive piece of news next time? I am going to die!
Meanwhile, Iverson led Amanda to the backstage lounge.
“All right, it’s all right.”
Amanda coughed. “Then let go of me first.”
Iverson glanced at the hands held together and was not in a hurry to let go.
Amanda struggled for a moment and put her hands behind her back. “Why did you say that just now?”
“Wasn’t what I said the truth?”
Amanda’s face blushed a little. “such a big thing. You… you… the board of directors of the Byran Group would hold you accountable, wouldn’t they?”
“It’s my own business. What does it have to do with them?”
“Who does that have to do with?”
“What do you think?” Iverson’s gaze fell on her, his eyes as beautiful as a painting, calm and gentle. “Why are you in such a hurry to come here? Are you worried that I can’t handle it alone?”
“It was because I feel bad. After all, I caused what happened last night. I should be responsible for it.”
“You should be responsible for more than this, should you?”
Amanda was stunned.
At this point, Iverson was already very close to her. “Let’s go back to our initial topic. When do you plan to accept my pursuit?”
Amanda was flustered. “Iverson, stop it. We’re both adults. What ‘first time’ you said. Just lie to the little girl. I’m no fool. Why should I take responsibility for this?”
“You don’t believe me?”
“How could I believe you? That night, you… you…”
“What’s wrong with me?”
Amanda’s face was so hot that it felt like it was about to explode.
Who would believe that a man who was almost 30 years old was still a virgin? Moreover, he was Iverson Byran. He was rich, handsome, and attractive. She did not believe that he had not had any physiological needs for so many years at all.
Moreover, his performance that night didn’t look like a novice at all.
“Don’t joke with me about this. Do you know what you are going to face now? The media… woo.”
Before Amanda could finish her words, her voice was sealed.
“Woo~~~”
With a muffled groan, Iverson held Amanda’s cheeks with both hands and pressed her roughly against the wall.
The smell of cologne permeated the air, with the strong sense of hormones that invaded all the reason in Amanda’s mind. She tried to struggle, but it made the man more passionate.
The kiss became more and more passionate. The two were like two balls of raging fire, merging into one and burning more fiercely and feverishly together.
Amanda widened her eyes, and her pupils also enlarged. However, her eyes had lost focus due to the suddenly approached face, and she was in a trance-like state.
It was so noisy outside that reporters were interrogating the person in charge of the Byran Group.
Just crossed a door. If someone were to rush in at this moment, the scene would make the headline tonight.
Iverson, however, showed no signs of stopping.
