The Cherished Wife by Chweety

Chapter 735

"What happened?" Ronald asked as he glanced at Charles, who was seated in the back. The voice on the other end continued, "Ms. Shaw's dress was tampered with, and no one knows who did it. The press conference turned chaotic as soon as it began, and now, it's out of control." Ronald raised an eyebrow, not entirely surprised that things had gone exactly as he had anticipated.

Since Ronald had put the call on speaker, Charles heard everything. A shadow crossed his face and his expression turned cold, but a faint smirk played on his lips. "Tell them to keep the situation under control," he ordered.

"You need to control the situation there. Mr. Hoffman will be there soon," Ronald said before ending the call. He turned to Charles. "Mr. Hoffman, you didn't need to come here yourself today." Charles simply raised his hand. "Drive faster."

When Charles arrived, the reporters and media swarmed toward him. Fortunately, the bodyguards he brought managed to keep them at bay.
