Chapter 2303
Soon, the video was circulated on the internet.
Initially, it was only circulated among tens of media companies. Then, the numbers grew to hundreds and even thousands of media companies. In the end, all the huge media streaming websites around the world broadcasted the video.
However, Danrique did not give any comment on it. He also did not respond to the rumors that went around recently.
He only wanted to tell the whole world that he was going to go home boldly. If something were to happen to him at home, it would be the president's doing.
His car was in bad shape from the impact of the explosion. It was supposed to be a glamorous convoy, but as of now, it was ruined. The people were sad to see it.
After all, he was an honest entrepreneur who wanted to focus solely on his business. Yet, he had been attacked abroad, and now his company was on the verge of being taken over by other people. His fiancée had been framed and sent to prison, and all the people close to him were either dead or injured. He could not go home either.
Although he did not say anything, everyone knew what was going on.
After the video went viral, many businessmen in Erihal started to migrate elsewhere. A few foreign companies also decided to end their business collaboration.
They would not earn anything if the business were to collapse. On the other hand, if they were to earn profits, they might end up just like Danrique—they could be harmed and their assets could be
confiscated.
All of a sudden, the rumors that the president was confiscating the assets of Lindberg Corporation and attacking Danrique spread once again.
This time around, Danrique did not provide any information to others. He did not allow Jesse to publish any news about it either. The only thing he did was to bring his injured men home.
Although the large convoy made for a magnificent scene, they were surrounded by a gloomy aura. It was as though they had accepted their impending doom. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
In an instant, they managed to amass support from the public.
Indeed, their silent protest was a form of retaliation so that the president would not dare to lay a hand on Danrique.
In fact, if the president wanted to arrest Danrique, he would have to charge him with a crime.
However, Erihal's economy had been supported by Lindberg Corporation over the years. Danrique fully controlled the company. In other words, it was Danrique who supported Erihal financially.
Erihal had treated Danrique as if he was a supreme being. It came as no surprise that it would be difficult to accuse him of baseless charges.
Moreover, Danrique had a clean record. They could never find a fault with him.
The only thing that could potentially smear his reputation was that he had once poisoned members of the Lindberg family when he wanted to become the head of the household. However, it was only because they had been the ones who attacked him first. He had merely given them a taste of their own medicine.
What he did was merely pour his poisoned wine into the decanter and give it to his relatives while he took another glass of wine that was not poisoned.
After that, it was rumored that he had killed all his family members in one night. He came out of the castle with blood all over him, but only because his family had instructed their men to kill him after they were poisoned. He was merely acting in self-defense.
In addition, the law in Erihal at that time had never restricted prominent families from settling their personal feuds on their own. The incident was never mentioned before. It would be useless for the authorities to raise the incident again.
The only chance they had of smearing his reputation had been destroyed as well.
The president was in a dilemma. Nevertheless, it would always be easy to find excuses to frame others. His subordinate was quick enough to find an idea for him—Danrique was to be charged with arms smuggling.
It was a crime that would bring disastrous consequences to the citizens. The public would not be in favor of him anymore.
The president immediately informed his men to start the rumor and utilize their power to spread it among the people.
However, public opinion in Erihal had been changing during that period, and the public was now overwhelmed. Their ardor to seek justice had been used up.
Now, they were not even bothered to watch the drama unfold. In fact, they no longer cared about the latest news and public opinions anymore, so the rumor did not garner enough publicity.
On the other hand, the number of supporters for Francesca and Danrique continued to increase. After all, he was a handsome man, and she was a beautiful woman. The love story between a domineering CEO and a female doctor could always capture the attention of others.
The president's action had destroyed the heart-rending love story that the netizens had made up for the couple.
