Chapter 971: Chapter 971: Masterful Schemes
Confronted with Emma’s full disclosure, Owen Winton found himself without any room for excuses.
He stood there, blowing his beard and glaring in fury.
The truth was laid bare.
The crowd was in an uproar.
“So the truth is like this, huh, Chairman Winton really has excellent tactics, he fooled us all. We were just pitying him; it’s a shame his acting skills aren’t in the entertainment industry.”
“Even his own daughter could be used this way, Chairman Winton, are you still human?”
“To think we just spoke for him, now it seems truly laughable.”
“More laughable is that he dared to do but not admit, laying all the blame on Emma. Is this something a father would do? Just now he portrayed himself as so innocent, now he’s been slapped in the face.”
“It’s truly vile, treating us like fools.”
“This father and daughter are simply deranged.”
The site was awash with malicious words from the angry crowd, all directed at Owen Winton.
Owen Winton’s whole body swayed, his eyes glaring to the extreme.
As journalists thrust their microphones towards him, he no longer had the mind to answer their questions, his gaze fixed intensely on the people ahead.
Wyatt Lewis watched Owen Winton’s expression with satisfaction and continued, “Does Chairman Winton have anything else to say? Do you still think you’re innocent? Doesn’t it feel great being exposed by your own daughter?”
“Wyatt Lewis!”
Owen Winton’s anger was at its peak.
His body shook violently, his chest heaving, his face darkened to an unsightly shade.
He took two steps forward, raised his hand, and glared fiercely at Wyatt Lewis and the Lewis Family members, the calm demeanor he had maintained now vanished without a trace.
“You make yourself sound so innocent. If you hadn’t been so blind to overlook such a good daughter of mine, would we have needed to come to this point? Yes, I schemed against you, against the Lewis Family, so what? You ruined my daughter, and no matter how much you suffer, it won’t quell my hatred.”
Owen Winton nearly jumped with rage, shouting furiously.
Wyatt Lewis, however, remained remarkably calm.
Owen Winton laughed cynically as he continued, “Speaking of my scheming, you’re no less adept. I ask you, when did you get hold of this video? When did you come out? When was this person bribed by you?”
Wyatt Lewis chuckled, “The night before last, was it sooner than you expected?”
Owen Winton’s facial muscles twitched.
In the end.
He had been played long ago.
And…
Owen Winton looked at Matthew Thompson beside him, his gaze growing even more vicious.
Matthew Thompson could only lower his head guiltily, “Sorry, Chairman, the tide has turned, I can only find my own way out.”
Owen Winton was so angered he laughed, raised a hand to pat Matthew Thompson’s neck, and through gritted teeth said, “I always thought you were smart, that’s why I kept you close. Never thought you really were smart enough to join forces with them to deceive me, huh, very good.”
It turned out his defeat was destined from the start.
Last night he was still smug for so long.
Owen Winton now felt like a total fool.
How terrifying.
For an entire day and night he was kept in the dark.
Damned.
Absolutely damned.
“Scheming… what a fine scheme.”
Owen Winton held back for a long time, only to angrily utter these few words.
Wyatt Lewis smiled lightly, “As I said before, the friendship between our families has been exhausted. You repeatedly struck against us, naturally, we wouldn’t show mercy. Not using every tactic to leave you with no room to recover would be a disservice to ourselves, right, Chairman Winton?”
Owen Winton trembled all over, “Yes, yes indeed.”
“Even so, I ask you, what means did you use to force Emma to say such things?
If she wasn’t forced, Emma would never have exposed him, he knew his daughter well.
Hope Williams raised an eyebrow and answered Owen Winton’s question, “I already told you this before, because she saw the situation clearly.”
“Those people you hired, arrested or not, outside or in the precinct, have all confessed. They said you gave them money and threats to force them to help you. We compiled this evidence and sent it to Emma’s hospital room. Seeing that, she was so clever she didn’t need me to say anything more to know what to do, right?”
