Chapter 51 - 50. Tickling Some Feathers
"Is this your doing?"
Mason narrowed his eyes while showing the articles to Sarah, observing the girl’s expression. Without taking the tablet, Sarah moved her eyes to quickly read the articles and her face shifted to a plethora of expressions over three minutes: intrigued, surprised, and finally...amusement.
All of them talked about the same thing--at least at first: that three young men from a prominent background were involved in a DUI case. No one had died, but one sustained a heavy injury to their spine, one to their leg, and another one on their head.
It wasn’t anything special at first glance, but if one were to think about it deeper, it was weird that people like them had no driver--designated or not--and instead drove by themselves.
The articles that came later, however, revealed that there was not only alcohol in their system, but also illegal substances. A leak from the police department also showed that those substances were found in the wrecked car, so people were speculating that those men moved without any driver or attendant because they wanted to have a drug party or something.
All of that in less than twelve hours? Sarah widened her eyes.
The ’accident’ happened before dawn, and they were brought to Yonghwa’s hospital, coincidentally. The medical personnel there had no business currying favor with the wealthy, so there was no covering for lawbreakers. Sarah had no idea why the police became so honest all of a sudden, but the one publishing the story first was a media outlet under Mirae Group, which also wouldn’t be swayed by the parents of those three men.
Naturally, other media platforms had a field day. It wasn’t lunch yet, but the news about those men’s deeds--which would normally never come to light--was already spread all over the country. It would not only damage the three people but also their respective families.
"Huh..."
Seeing the genuine surprise in Sarah’s face, Mason arched his brow. "It’s not?"
Then...was it Daniel? Did he send it to all members of the Circle as a warning?
