Stuck On You
Chapter 86 That Is The Reason

Claire was so confused that she followed Anna into the car before she could think. At Anna's request, the taxi driver drove them to the destination as soon as possible.

To their surprise, there were a lot of people at the entrance of the Champs-Elysees Hotel. Not only were there many onlookers, but also many reporters were surrounding the entrance, with cameras everywhere.

"What is Chason doing?" Anna frowned and pulled Claire's hand, "we need to be careful. Don't let the reporters replace you, or we won't be able to rush in."

"Why are there so many reporters? Since Chason asked you to take me here, there should be someone to pick me up. " Claire looked around in confusion, not worried at all. Since it was arranged by that man, there must be a reason. However, his current situation...

Sure enough, when they were thinking about how to enter the hotel, Larry patted her on the back and said, "Mrs. Claire, follow me."

Claire caught up with Larry in a hurry and asked in a low voice, "Larry, what's going on?"

"Mrs. Claire, I'm in a hurry. I don't have time to explain the details to you. This is the press conference held by Mr. Chason on the collapse accident last time. You are the wife of Mr. Chason, and also the victim involved. You must come to the scene. "As he spoke, Larry led her into a dressing room and said, "dress Mrs. Claire up quickly."

It was not the first time for Claire to attend the press conference, but she came in such a hurry that she didn't know what to do for a while.

It seemed that she could only adapt herself to changing circumstances. Claire cheered herself up in silence.

The stylist seemed to be much faster than usual, and it didn't take long for Claire to get dressed.

"Are you done?" Larry was extremely anxious. He was very familiar with these procedures, and he also knew the techniques of the stylist. But it was different this time. He was always worried that time was not enough.

The stylist nodded, indicating that it was done.

Larry hurriedly led the way for Claire and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Claire, the press conference is about to start. Please follow me."

Claire nodded at Anna and followed Larry to the hotel hall through a private passage.

The hall of the hotel was already crowded with people. She saw Chason in a suit from a long distance. When she left in the morning, he was still bandaging his wound. Now he was standing on the stage, becoming the dignified president of the Jiang Group. She took a deep breath. No matter what, she had to face the press conference with that man. Thinking of this, Claire walked towards him.

Chason saw her as soon as she came in and showed a familiar smile. He walked towards her and said, "Claire, you are here." As he spoke, he naturally held her hand and said, "don't be afraid. Just sit down. I'll be there if there's any problem." She glared at him and said, "I'll settle accounts with you after the press conference."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." He got close to her ear, and his warm breath made Claire blush subconsciously.

The reporters, of course, didn't miss this scene. They took pictures one after another. Claire was so shy that she wanted to step back to stay away from this aggressive man, but was pulled to sit down by Chason.

The press conference had officially begun. Although it was just a press conference of an enterprise, the onlookers from all directions had paid attention to it.

This was because this accident was related to the young and promising president of the Jiang Group, Chason. In everyone's heart, this young man who had inherited the Jiang family was not only capable, but also looked like a popular star. Therefore, in most people's eyes, he was a legend.

However, the higher a person stood, the more painful he would fall. This time, the Jiang Group was in trouble, and there were many people who were watching it like a good show, and even many people who were ready to hit him when he was down.

The director of the Flower Wheel Company Design Department glanced at the two of them, and then glanced at the group of ready reporters. Finally, he said, "thank you for coming to the press conference held by the Flower Wheel Company and the Jiang Group to explain the collapse accident last time."

He didn't expect that Claire was the wife of Mr. Chason. God knew how hard he had been in the past half a month. After all, Mr. Chason did help Claire to become project director. If he hadn't seen Claire's design with his own eyes, he would have suspected that it was Claire's design that had caused the collapse accident.

After a pause, he pointed at the slide over his head and said, "this is the design content and construction materials of our whole project. You can clearly see that all the content and payment are clear, and it is absolutely not like what the outside world has said." The director introduced the whole project to everyone, but the reporters couldn't help but say, "Hello, Mr. Walter. I heard that the Jiang Group invested in you this time because they want their relatives to enter your Flower Wheel Company. Can you explain this matter?" The director's face turned pale slightly. He had known that this matter was inevitable in today's press conference, but when the reporters came to ask, he was still a little guilty. "Well..."

"Can I say something?" Chason, who had been silent all the time, suddenly picked up the microphone. All of a sudden, the eyes of the people present turned to him. The president of the Jiang Group, who used to be reticent, what should he say to everyone this time? Chason quietly pinched Claire's hand, indicating her to be relieved. "The relative you are talking about should be my wife, Claire, a newcomer in the Flower Wheel Company Design Department, right?" As he spoke, Chason looked around. It was probably his innate aura that made the reporters hold back their questions for a while.

"This slide is the design draft of my wife's project. I specially invited relevant experts in today's press conference to prove it for everyone on the spot. If the accident is related to design, I'm willing to take full responsibility with my wife." Chason's firm voice warmed Claire's heart. The way he addressed her made her feel that no matter what happened, there was only endless relief.

Naturally, after the expert's identification, the reporters could not get to the bottom of this point for a while, but changed the topic. "As far as we know, Miss Claire, you didn't graduate in design, and you have never been engaged in design before. I wonder why you have the courage to be the person in charge of this project."

When Chason was about to speak, Claire shook her head and picked up the microphone. "Yes, I'm not a designer. This is my first time to work in design."

Claire was a little nervous in her heart, but she still tried to say it to everyone. "First of all, as the person in charge of this project, I apologize to you for this project accident."

Chason and the director were worried about Claire. After all, she was not prepared for the speech in such a press conference. How could she withstand so many reporters' siege?

"But I gained this position, the person in charge of the project, through competition of design drafts. Perhaps I'm not the most experienced one in design, and my professional ability is not as good as other colleagues of the Flower Wheel Company, but I know more about orphanage more than most people. Design does not only rely on experience and ability, inspiration is also very important.

She paused and continued, "I'm not an orphan, and I've never been to an orphanage. But I lost my mother since I was a child. In my heart, I can at least have the similar experience as an orphan. Putting emotions into the design, I think I know better than other designers what they need. That's why I am qualified to be the person in charge! "

Everyone was silent for a moment, including Chason, who looked at her in surprise.

This was her background, but at this moment, as the young mistress of the Jiang family, Claire unexpectedly uncovered her scars in front of so many people. "As for that, even if I am able to participate in this project because of my husband, as everyone thinks, I don't think the Flower Wheel Company or the Jiang Group will tolerate the existence of a design that might kill people."

Chason's heart ached when he heard this.

He said that as long as he was here, he wouldn't let Claire be wronged. But at this moment, she actually exposed her pain to the public.

A hint of coldness appeared in his eyes. He blinked in the direction of Larry. The next second, a relatively blurry video was shown on the big screen.

Although the video was a little blurry, they could still vaguely see a woman sneaking into a steel house and throwing something into a pile of steel.

Faced with this sudden dramatic scene, the reporters began to discuss among themselves. With a sneer, Chason said, "this is a surveillance video that has been destroyed. Ordinary people can't restore it. Fortunately, I sent someone to restore it in time and found the thing that the woman put into the steel in the video." He paused, "this person is the leader of the first group of the Flower Wheel Company Design Department, Linda."

Of course, in today's press conference, Linda was also there. At the moment when her face was pale with fear, the flash of reporters had already gathered on her.

"Linda is a very famous designer in our company. This time, she competed with Miss Claire for the position of project director. At last, we chose Miss Claire. Maybe it's her jealousy that led to the accident."

The director felt a little regretful, but he still said seriously, "no matter what the reason is, we will deal with this matter seriously."000000
