Chapter 515 - 508. Eye of the World
"No, you can’t get in," Naomi, who had been tasked to hold the fort of the operation in the borderland, faced the throngs of reporters in front of the Trinity headquarters gate with a cold face.
Naturally, reporters wouldn’t be reporters if they would back off just from a ’no’.
"Oh, come on--don’t be such a snob!"
"Hey, Missy! Don’t you know how beneficial it is to get an exposure from us?"
"That’s right! Or do you think Mortix and Trinity are immune to bad reputation?!"
Naomi’s eyes, who were cold and indifferent before, turned fierce. Hah! Did they think she would be afraid of such threats? Did these people think they were more scary than Bassena Vaski’s wrath--or worse; her Chairman?!
She looked at the group of reporters and snickered. "Go on, write what you want. Let’s see who will come out on top; your articles or our lawyers."
The reporters clicked their tongues in dissatisfaction. Naomi wanted to believe that it was enough to drive them out, but she knew these kinds of people; they might do something daring and enter the Deathzone illegally. Not that she cared if they died, but their company would spin it to be Mortix’s fault for negligence.
So she let out a sigh and told them. "Look; we already gave you a clear rule; bring the permit and we’ll let you in. So just go back and obtain the permit."
"But we have it here!" some of the reporters took out a piece of paper.
Naomi almost wanted to scoff, but held herself and put on her business face. "We clearly stated we need two permits; from the government, and from Trinity. Please adhere to the stated regulations, thank you."
