Chapter 238 The Interview

Milly looked at them and nodded solemnly. She said, “Thank you for your recognition. I will.”

Her ambitions had never wavered, not in her previous life nor in this one.

In her past life, she was willing to do anything to return to her homeland. In this life, having finally set foot on her own land, there was no way she would abandon her previous convictions.

Moreover, millions of Halturians shared this belief, a patriotic sentiment deeply rooted in their very bones and blood from birth.

Just like these journalists, who strove to protect Milly’s information despite risking their jobs. They respected highly educated researchers and trusted their ability to contribute to the nation. In a way, wasn’t this also a form of patriotism?

Milly frowned. She looked at Jordan with concern and asked, “Do you think they’ll get in trouble when they go back to their office?”

Milly wasn’t a saint; she just felt that journalists willing to abandon a story out of patriotism couldn’t be all bad. There was no need to ruin their livelihood.

Jordan understood what she was thinking and affectionately ruffled her hair. He said, “Don’t worry, those people wouldn’t dare to go against our family head–on. Their boss is surely aware of this.

“And if he isn’t, our family also owns media companies. If those journalists are fired, they can join us. Their treatment will be the best. If all else fails, we could just acquire that small media company. It wouldn’t cost much.”

Milly was speechless.
