Chapter 1500 Some Tricks (2/2)

”Okay.”

Sam had been monitoring Darren's movements since the beginning, but he was still caught off guard. Something terrible happened concerning the HT Group's newly launched products. However, Sam couldn't pinpoint the exact cause of the problem.

”Boss, the public relations department has been dealing with the public opinions on the internet. However, since the incident happened so unexpectedly, we need some more time to handle it.”

g mad as he thought about it over and over. He was being framed and he had no solid evidence to properly back it up or connect it to Darren. However, he quickly regained his composure and thought about what the KING Group might do next.

He wasn't sure if he had lost or benefited from the matter. Maybe both but in equal proportions, so there was really no effect in the end.

It was difficult to tell how long the KING Group would hold out and if they would survive as a company in the near future.

They could no longer hold a press conference because the result of the quality inspection bureau was already public knowledge. The only thing that Jacob could do at the moment was to cooperate with the investigations of the relevant departments. He was strong enough and mentally prepared for these things to happen. However, he was worried that perhaps Emily would be most affected by the comments on the internet.

The public opinions on the Internet had become rather controversial because of the alleged food poisoning. Somehow, the comments even doubled after the result of the product testing came out. It was as if a bomb had exploded and had the public voicing out their concerns one after another. Previously, some of the netizens might have been still willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. They could have gotten enough of the public to believe that the food poisoning incident was just a mistake. However, now, it would be a difficult task to get even just one person to believe them.

Almost everyone in the comments had negative opinions and was actively cursing the HT Group.

”Emily, you'd better be staying away from the news on the internet these days. Don't read the comments. Uninstall all apps if you have to. If you are free, just spend more time with the kids. Don't let yourself get stressed over this. Think about the children.”
