Chapter 198

Adam was terrified. Why was Stephen still hesitating at a time like that? Was it so difficult to admit his mistake?

He quickly grabbed the loudspeaker, determined not to let Stephen continue speaking.

Adam continued, "As for the eight individuals we lost, we deeply regret this tragedy. We will all attend their funeral today."

After finishing his statement, Adam was drenched in sweat.

"Sounds good!"

"It's not bad."

"Let's get it done with!"
