Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 554

She managed an awkward smile. “Dad, don’t overthink it. Mom went to see Mr. Wilson to help you discuss a business deal. Mr. Wilson’s wife saw them and mistook her for a mistress. Mom got beaten up and is still in the hospital.”

Marshall was on his way to work when he was blocked at the company entrance by a crowd of reporters and officials from a joint inspection commission.

Marshall’s assistant and bodyguards formed a protective circle around him.

“Nothing has been confirmed yet. You are blowing this out of proportion and inciting panic among homebuyers. As journalists, you haven't even verified the truth of the matter, yet you’re already reporting these exaggerations.”
