Chapter 54: Look Whose Wife You’re Talking About
Upon hearing this, Kevin didn’t say much. However, he had already planned the next steps in his mind. He would have Adam handle this matter when the time came.
With only a few pieces of evidence in Jessie’s hands, the incident from years ago could easily be labelled as fabricated if the other party simply denied it. If those people from back home came out to slander her, she would be like a lamb to the slaughter. The credibility of the matter could only increase if those people came forward to speak up on her behalf.
He felt more comfortable leaving this task to Adam.
Far away at Harper Group, Adam sneezed unexpectedly and glanced up at Drake.
"Are you badmouthing me?"
Drake was speechless and shook his head. "No."
He had no time to badmouth Adam. In worry that Jessie might see him, he had been ordered to keep some distance from Kevin.
Kevin had made this decision precisely because he had been in the position of power at Harper Group for a long time. He knew exactly how evil people’s hearts could be in front of profit and how insignificant so-called goodwill could be. It was precisely due to his understanding of these things that he wanted to help Jessie and quickly free her from this situation.
The power of public opinion was terrifying. Even though he was in charge of Harper Group with immense power, he had to be careful with his words and actions. Otherwise, the media could make a big fuss over them.
What he was truly worried about was how this might affect business at Jessie’s shop.
