The Queen They Buried

Chapter 212

Ronald: [Alright, since Emery’s been released, stop lurking outside the station before reporters spot you. Our priority is controlling the online narrative. Get to the office. I called an emergency meeting.]

As Bryan read the stream of messages, unease lingered. ‘Is it really that simple?’

But with Emery’s release being fact, he had no choice but to leave.

News of Emery’s release from the police station spread like wildfire. Rosepoly Group’s case took an unexpected turn as online rumors swirled, with many speculating there was more to the story than met the eye.

Ronald couldn’t let this golden PR opportunity slip away. Even if he couldn’t completely resolve the crisis, he had to at least stem the bleeding and reverse the downward spiral. Rosepoly’s shares had already plummeted 30%.

Regarding the payoff, I explained it as a private settlement with the widow to avoid publicity, completely reasonable, given I wasn’t at fault. That’s why I was released.”

“In that case, this matter is easily resolved. We’ll issue a public apology and pin all the blame on Anthony.”
