THE Buzz was reignited almost instantly as the reporters lifted their microphones and cameras, Then, they jostled forward with the hopes of breaking through the guards’ barricade.

However, although there were more reporters than bodyguards at the main entrance, the ratio was significantly reversed on this side of the Compound.

Therefore, the thirty guards on site could easily hold back the twenty-odd reporters here, who could not break through the barricade even as they struggled and pushed forward. Now that they were growing frustrated at the bodyguards, the reporters realized they were left with no choice but to shout at Sonia from a distance, “Miss Reed, is it true that you arranged for Miss Gray to be assaulted?

The reporter felt a chill run down his spine when he met her pitch-black gaze. “A-Am I wrong?”

 

He had no idea that a woman could be so intimidating and while the man next to her was wearing dark shades that obscured half his face, the reporter could tell that he was staring daggers in his direction as well, making him feel like someone was choking the air out of him.

More importantly, the reporter found that the man looked somewhat familiar. Where have I seen him?
