The elderly lady was pushed by the man, causing her to fall towards the corner of the table.
Sumr Monroe, being the closest to the elderly lady, reacted swiftly and rushed forward to support her, then coldly ordered, "Catch him!"
A few bodyguards reacted quickly, and the man was caught before he could reach the hospital room door.
"Let go of ! Let go of !" The man struggled desperately.
Isaac Ross waved his hand, instructing the bodyguards to take the man away.
Sumr took the opportunity to speak, "Ma’am, now that everything is clear, do you still want to sue us?"
The elderly lady forced a smile and said, "This matter, I was confused about. You can punish him however you like, I won’t obstruct you. It’s just... my Jasper, he is naturally innocent, he must have been misled by his brother to do such a thing. Please be lenient and at least wait until he’s cured before pursuing him."
Sumr nodded, took off the mask from her face and said, "Your younger son is a good person, just accidentally took the wrong path. Lead him back to the right track in the future. In fact, I promised him to keep this matter from you. But I thought it over and felt that you should know."
Moreover, when the truth is revealed, the elderly lady’s older son will be imprisoned, even if kept from her now, she will find out sooner or later.
It was better to take advantage of this mont to explain things clearly, making it easier for the elderly lady to accept.
Even if the elderly lady fainted from anger montarily, they could treat her on the spot, but unexpectedly, her acceptance ability was quite good.
"There’s one more thing," Sumr said, "I won’t hold your younger son responsible. It’s clear he’s inherently kind, but undeniably, his illness caused trendous reputational damage to Midnight Coffee House. I need him to cooperate with at the press conference site, and it will require your accompanint."
"No problem, I will cooperate with you." The elderly lady nodded, looking extrely fatigued, and inquired, "May I rest for a while first?"
"Of course, and he needs to finish his IV drip before we can head out. Please rest well, I’ll call a nurse to take care of you."
With that, Sumr no longer disturbed the elderly lady, left her space, and turned to leave the hospital room with Isaac Ross.
...
anwhile.
The press conference site was packed.
The Midnight Coffee House incident had already spread online, directly topping the trending list.
After Damian Knight decided to hold a press conference, he chose not to suppress the trending topics but instead had the Midnight Coffee House official blog and the Knight Group official blog issue a joint statent.
The statent announced that Damian Knight, as the CEO of Knight Group, would hold a press conference at Crestfall Grand Hotel to explain the Midnight Coffee House incident.
The comnts below grew exponentially, filled with offensive insults.
There were also those who did not insult, but all demanded the imdiate closure of Midnight Coffee House and compensation for all custors who had consud there.
With the matter escalating so severely, students at Crestfall University were also discussing it.
Willow Grant, just finishing lunch, returned to class to prepare for studies, when she suddenly heard classmates discussing—
"Did you see the trending news? Many people who drank coffee at Midnight Coffee House had issues and were hospitalized, one reportedly even died. It’s truly terrifying!"
"I saw it too. And that deceased custor, he was my high school classmate, I think he got into Crestfall University, just not in our preparatory class."
"Oh my, that’s so unlucky!"
"Yes, he was a good guy. It’s all Midnight Coffee House’s fault! How did this kind of shop pass market regulation inspections to open? And they say they want to beco the largest global coffee chain, I bet they definitely have to shut down this ti."
