Chapter 3119 Clarifying Things At This Point Is Tardy LL Multitasking was not something difficult for Evan.
""Capital University's request for our professors to teach classes wasn't something I brought up when I took over the management of the company.
Dr. Craw, you should be aware of this.
"But since you've agreed to it, I'll make sure to handle the communication with them. You can trust me," said Evan.
Getting Evan’s uncle to agree to such a matter was effortless.
After all, it was not a challenging task.
His uncle was the kind of person who
focused solely on the education sector.
As for other matters, he was not keen on managing them. Otherwise, the Turner family would not have entirely relied on his father.
"Alright, I'll wait for your good news," replied Luca, making it clear that she would not be able to teach classes at Capital University this week.
After that, she turned around and left.
The moment Luca left the office, Evan paused his work and picked up his phone. He dialed the number for the president of Capital University.
"Uncle, it's Evan." "Evan, why are you calling at this hour? Is there something wrong?" Evan explained Luca's request to the
person on the other end of the line.
After he received confirmation, she would delegate the arrangement to her assistant.
This indicated that the temporary replacement professor would hand over all teaching materials and course details to the assistant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter the communication was sorted out, Evan let out a sigh of relief. This matter concerned the future talent supply between Capital University and Watson. Luca's agreement laid a solid foundation for the company to absorb talent.
Considering Luca's close relationship with Luke, Evan initially thought she would not agree. He was even prepared to persuade other professors to teach the classes.
After all, if Luca was unwilling to teach and Luke pressured him, there was nothing much he could do about it, | However, to his surprise, Luca agreed.
Now, the cooperation with Capital University was sealed.
Meanwhile, in a villa owned by the Mallory family in A City, a press conference was underway.
Luca was unaware of this event, but when she returned to the laboratory, she overheard one of the researchers mentioning it casually.
As long as it did not affect their work, Luca would not stop them from chatting. After all, casual conversation was a way to foster camaraderie among
colleagues.
When Luca heard what the researcher said, she could not help but ask, "Madam Mallory's press conference is confirmed for today?" "Yes, several major media outlets are said to be onsite for live coverage. Dr.
Craw, are you interested in this?" The researcher turned to look at her.
Luca shook her head. She was merely surprised that the event had been delayed for so long.
She thought Karen had already held the press conference. She did not expect it to start just now, which was surprising.
After all, she remembered Karen had come looking for trouble with Luke after she caught Silas. That was a long
time ago.
She replied, "I remember the incident happened quite a while ago. That's v why I find it strange. News updates every day nowadays, and I reckon the incident has lost its heat. Is it really necessary to hold a press conference to clarify things now?" ""That’s true. Nobody's paying attention to her scandalous affairs online anymore. After all, several celebrity scandals have surfaced recently, and everyone loves discussing those more.
"But she had the media publish yesterday that there'd be a press conference today, which has reignited the people’s interest in this matter." "Indeed, everyone is discussing her
past events now, which had already faded away before. Still, she insists on clarifying. Which PR firm is the.
Mallory family using? I'm not a professional, but I feel like clarifying things at this point would be too late. It would be better to just let it go since the matter has passed." "Exactly. If they're innocent, as long as the Mallory family knows it and believes it, that should be enough.
There's no need to make such a fuss.
Isn't this just putting the Mallory family in the spotlight?" The group engaged in a lively discussion.
Luca was no longer involved in the conversation at this point.
She thought to herself that Karen really knew how to cause trouble for
the Mallory family. She guessed that Percy would have to seek his PR department’s help to handle this matter.
For some reason, whenever Luca thought of Karen, it reminded her of Allison, who was still undergoing plastic surgery in Seoul.
She had not heard Luke mention Allison recently and neither did she know her current situation.
Still, no news might be good news.
With things in turmoil in A City, it would be best if Allison stayed in Seoul and not come back.
She should at least wait until they resolved all the issues with the Island of Despair...
At the thought of this, Luca continued
to work on her experiments.
After a few more random remarks from the people in the lab, they stopped discussing.
Since Luca was no longer participating in the topic anymore, they did not want to gossip and risk upsetting her later.
At the Mallory Estate, Karen was wearing a pair of oversized sunglasses and sitting on the makeshift stage for the press conference.
She could not be bothered finding another location. The garden of this villa was spacious enough, so she decided to hold it here.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe morning sunlight filtered through the trees, but the weather was getting
increasingly humid. Even the scattered sunlight felt too scorching.
Many reporters were using handheld fans to cool themselves.
Karen's expression was not too pleasant either. She looked at the reporters present and saw there were not many of them, which meant her clarification came too late and it had lost its news value.
It was as though even with the clarification released, not many people would pay attention, or rather, not many would believe it.
Karen's mood turned sour.
When her subordinate, Anthony, approached and quietly reminded her, "Madam, it's time as per the invitation letters, but not many reporters have
arrived. Should we start now?" "Just wait a bit longer!" Karen did not want to do something futile. She had to wait this long before holding the clarification press conference all because of Silas! Silas' face was swollen for a long time.
Later, she found out that Silas, to avoid clarifying, would secretly slap his face when those two men were not paying attention.
Even though he was not very forceful, after a few slaps, the swelling on his face would not go down.
After Karen found out about this, she wished she could cripple him.
However, she held back and finally had the two men tie up Silas's hands and
feet. That way, there was no way Silas could do anything to his face. With his face no longer swollen, she Le immediately arranged the press conference.
Still, it was too late...
Anthony glanced at the reporters below. All of them were visibly impatient due to the increasingly hot weather.
He whispered, "Madam, the weather is getting hotter, and we're outdoors. I'm afraid these reporters might leave if we wait any longer." Usually, press conferences were held indoors, but Karen thought there would be many people and the indoor living room could not accommodate everyone. That was why she set it up outside despite the exceptionally hot
weather.
Now, Karen was practically begging the reporters to help her with interviews and coverage rather than the reporters demanding explosive news from her.
Their perspectives were different.
Hence, these reporters did not have much patience to wait.
