Chapter 722 Start a Rumor

Eduard smiled grandly, then turned to face his "sheep" and "washed" his eyes. His "sheep" was still cute and beautiful.

Nia frowned and watched Daphne's beautiful face, which made her even more upset.

Daphne was better off with Eduard. Judging from the way she was dressed, the luxury of her clothes and her jewelry, it seemed that Eduard really doted on her.

When she thought about all the injustices she had suffered, and how Daphne had gotten to where she was only because of her relationships, hatred was creeping into Nia's eyes, but soon her vision was blocked out.

"Ms. Davidson, I'd like to catch up with my friends. Could you please go and entertain the guests?" Lucia stepped between Nia and Daphne, looking into her eyes and smiling.

Nia was stunned for a moment, then she realized that she had just stared at Daphne in a daze! She turned around and saw that even Jacob's eyes weren't right.

"Ms. Davidson?" Naturally sensing Nia's state of mind, Lucia smiled and reminded her.

"Okay, I'll go entertain the other guests first," Nia replied quickly, then grabbed Jacob's arm and quickly walked away.

"What the hell were you doing?!" As soon as she turned around and took a few steps out, Jacob asked Nia in a low voice.

Nia pursed her lips and knew that she had forgotten herself, but she really couldn't bear to see them so carefree!

"Don't do that again!" Jacob sternly warned Nia.

"I get it," Nia responded with an aggrieved tone.

Nia and Jacob had just walked away when Eduard snickered and asked, "Is he Nia's new gigolo?"

"Eduard... can you not be so blunt?" Even Daphne felt sorry for him.

"Birds of a feather flock together," Eduard said to Lucia and Arthur, with a snort of disapproval. "You should also pay attention to this man."

"Yeah, I know." Lucia nodded. After the conversation she had that day, she was now wary of Casper.

"Also, I just saw Spencer enter. Now I don't know where he is," Kane said.

"He's not hiding," said Lucia, looking past them behind them. "He's there, isn't he?"

Everyone turned their heads and saw a small group of people gathered on the left side of the venue. They even caused a small commotion. And they wondered whom they were surrounded by. Of course, if Lucia said so, no one had to guess.

"It looks like he's surrounded by journalists, Lucia. Do you want to intervene?" Kane asked worriedly.

"He can say whatever he wants." Lucia didn't care what Spencer had to say to journalists. Even if he didn't say anything today, he will use the power of media to spread rumors. Why would she want to help him?

Despite what Lucia had said, everyone was a little worried and kept looking in Spencer's direction.

Surrounded by journalists and some gossipy guests, Spencer was now in his element.

"Mr. Davies, why weren't you at the launch with your fiancee?" A number of journalists were clutching notebooks and cellphones, trying to find out what Spencer was up to.

"I didn't approve of their partnership in the first place, so why would Lucia bring me along?" Spencer said with a wry smile.

"So Ms. Webb did not want you to attend at all?" asked another, seizing his words.

"Do I really need to answer that?" Spencer said, as if he were a martyr.

"But how could I stop her? I told her to stay at home and take care of the baby. There's no need to rush out to work. I didn't expect her to leave the baby at home to be taken care of by a nanny in order to work with Davonnis Corp..."

"Are you blaming her not being a dutiful mother?" someone asked.

"I don't blame her," Spencer denied immediately, and said forgiving,

"Besides, the project has already started. Even if I don't agree with it, I will still support her as always. So, even if I didn't receive any invitation today, I came here in person. I just want her to know that I will always be by her side."

"You haven't been willing to comment on this before. Can you tell us what your attitude is to the public opinion after the three-way partnership among Davonnis Corp, Webbex Group and Stable Growth Investment?"

"Those stories are nonsense," said Spencer indignantly. "I don't know who was so bold as to publish them, but they were working together for the good of their companies, not for personal reasons." "That being said, why did it have to be the three of them?" asked one reporter. "Especially Stable Growth Investment. There are many stronger companies in our city. Why did Davonnis Corp and Webbex Group choose it?"

Spencer's face darkened. "That's what Arthur's thinking," he whispered

"Mr. Davies, does this reflect the possibility that these reports are not fabricated?"

"Do you think I can answer that question?" Spencer laughed and asked the persistent reporter, "Even I want to know why..."All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

"Have you not asked Ms. Webb directly?" Someone immediately asked.

"Yes, but this is a discussion between us and I can't share it with you," Spencer said with a smile.

"Mr. Davies, you..."

Spencer intercepted the next question. He had already said enough. He believed that the few questions he had just answered were enough to generate new speculation and cause a new wave of heat in the public opinion. It was most sensible to quit when things were done.

"I'm sorry. I saw Lucia. I'll go and look for her first." Spencer pushed away the crowd and walked towards Lucia. Naturally, he saw Eduard and the others. They were here...

Spencer gloomily smiled. If he did not join them, it was a pity.

"Lucia, he's coming." When Spencer saw them, Eduard and the others saw him too.

Lucia pondered for a moment and then said to Arthur, "Arthur, you take Eduard and the others somewhere else first. I don't want any conflict here."

"We're not leaving. We don't fear." Eduard wouldn't go soft on Spencer.

"It's not fear. It's caution," Lucia said, patting Eduard on the arm. "You're not afraid to condescend."
