Chapter 716 Jessica’s Fear

Sonia glanced at the reporter before agreeing whole-heartedly. “Of course. Daphne?”

“Yes, Chairman.” Daphne smiled as she picked up the adoption documents.

“Please hand them out so that everyone gets to take a look. Please make sure that Miss Jessica gets a good look at the documents too,” Sonia uttered as she threw Jessica a cold glare. The pale and terrified look on Jessica’s face was an amusing sight.

Daphne grinned and nodded after she looked in Jessica’s direction. “Don’t worry, President Reed. I’ll make sure that Miss Jessica is the first to get a look.”

“Go ahead.” Sonia waved her arm at Daphne, and Daphne walked over to Jessica with the documents. Once Daphne was in front of Jessica, she opened the files. “Please take a look, Miss Jessica. You should make sure to go through it thoroughly.”

Jessica’s eyes were bloodshot as she glared at the adoption documents with all the official stamps on it. It was then that she accepted her fate—she had lost to Sonia once more. However, she didn’t wish to admit it in front of everyone. “Take it away. I don’t want to see it. Who knows whether this is real or not? What if you guys bribed the Public Security Bureau to get them to forge this document?”

The crowd and the live stream viewers fell silent upon hearing Jessica. Forgery? It might seem a little far-fetched, but that’s not impossible. The audience exchanged confused glances before they turned to look at the couple on the stage.

Sonia had a grim expression on her face. “I’ve always thought you were dumb, but I just realized how brainless you are. Forgery? I can’t believe you thought of such a thing. Do you think I’m powerful enough to get a government organization to forge this document for me?”

“That’s true.” The crowd nodded in agreement. Jessica bit her lip as she continued her end of the argument. “You might not have that power, but what about the man beside you?” Jessica pointed at Toby, who had his gaze lowered.

 

He appeared to be bored and uninterested, but he was actually playing with Sonia’s hand under the table. “I’m sure Mr. Fuller has the capabilities, considering how powerful his family is. With his ancestors’ contribution to the country, I’m sure the government might be a little more respectful toward him. So…”

“That’s enough!” Sonia slammed her palm against the table as she couldn’t bear to listen to Jessica’s words any longer. “Do you have any idea what you’re talking about? You’re ruining the reputation of an elderly who has contributed to the country, and you’re even tainting our country’s name.

 

Even if President Fuller has the ability to ask the bureau to forge documents, he wouldn’t do such a thing as he’d never sacrifice the blood, sweat and tears that his own grandfather has given to the country. President Fuller knows that I have to ability to resolve this on my own, so what you’re saying now is utter bullsh*t!”

Sonia was fuming. She rarely ever swore in front of others, but she couldn’t help herself then. When Jessica saw how infuriated Sonia was, she merely let out an unbothered scoff. “This is just a one-sided statement. Is there any way you can prove that you’re telling the truth?”

“You—“ Sonia frowned. She was about to say something when Toby pulled her to sit down and lifted his gaze to glare at Jessica. His eyes were blank and soulless as he stared at her. “If you don’t believe her, you can file a report and get some higher-ups to investigate if I’ve bribed the Public Security Bureau. What do you think you will do if I turn out to be innocent?” Toby’s voice wasn’t loud and his tone was light-hearted, but his threat was obvious.
