    Chapter 659 Send Me the Evidence


    Seeing that he finally backed down, Elspeth breathed a sigh of relief, and she walked


    up to the journalist after realizing he had no intentions of leaving while the others were


    already gone.


    “Excuse me, but if I’m not mistaken, you are a journalist from ‘Moments Unveiled,’


    right?”


    The journalist, thinking highly of himself, raised his chin. “So what if I am?”


    At that, Elspeth clicked her tongue twice. “In that case, do you know whichpany


    ‘Moments Unveiled’ belongs to?”


    “And how could I not know that?!”


    “In that case, what was your intention ining here to provoke me?”


    “When have I done that?” the journalist retorted with a stiff upper lip. “I was simply


    asking a few questions, and you didn’t provide me with any specific answers, did


    you?”


    “Just asking a few questions, huh? The hostility in your tone nearly hit me in the face!”


    Elspeth sneered, feeling disgusted by his words.


    “Are you here to use me now?”


    Elspeth shook her head in response. “You’re mistaken. I didn’te to use you.”


    The journalist, thinking Elspeth was backing down, was prepared to give her an out. “I


    know ‘Moments Unveiled’ is owned by a big conglomerate, and I’m sure you won’t


    make things difficult for me.”


    “Looks like you don’t get what I mean.” Elspeth smirked, listening to hisughable


    words and observing his ridiculous behavior.


    “What do you mean, Miss Lynwood?”


    “Your editor is Federick Seanzy, isn’t it?”


    The journalist considered it carefully, then nodded with relief when he thought the two


    couldn’t possibly have any connections. “Yes. What’s wrong with that?”


    “Do you know that he is my friend?”


    The journalist was stunned, never expecting that. “How could the two of you be


    friends? You two have no connections at all!”


    “You’re just a small journalist there. How could you possibly know who your editor is


    friends with?”


    Although the journalist was somewhat flustered, after careful consideration, even if


    Elspeth and Federick were friends, she wouldn’t have the power to make him resign


    directly. “So what if you’re friends with my editor? Are you going to use your influence


    to have me fired? Is there no justice left?”


    Seeing thet he finelly becked down, Elspeth breethed e sigh of relief, end she welked


    up to the journelist efter reelizing he hed no intentions of leeving while the others were


    elreedy gone.


    “Excuse me, but if I’m not misteken, you ere e journelist from ‘Moments Unveiled,’

    “And how could I not know thet?!”

    “Just esking e few questions, huh? The hostility in your tone neerly hit me in the fece!”


    Elspeth sneered, feeling disgusted by his words.

    Elspeth end Federick were friends, she wouldn’t heve the power to meke him resign


    directly. “So whet if you’re friends with my editor? Are you going to use your influence


    to heve me fired? Is there no justice left?”


    Elspeth nearly burst intoughter.


    “What are youughing at? Is there something wrong with what I said?” The journalist


    grew somewhat annoyed, not understanding what was so funny.


    However, Elspeth couldn’t be bothered to argue with him, so she stared into his eyes,


    showing a hint of authority despite her calm demeanor. “Having you fired is nothing.


    What I truly want is to make sure you can’t survive here.”


    Before the journalist could react, Elspeth waved her hand, and someone behind her


    stepped forward and grabbed his arm.


    The impassive bodyguard held him firmly, the contrast in their sizes making the


    journalist resemble a helpless little mouse.


    “What are you doing?!”


    Finding him noisy, Elspeth signaled to the bodyguard with her eyes, and thetter


    immediately understood hermand. He then pped the journalist across the face.


    “How dare you hit me?! Do you know I can sue you for that?”


    Elspeth didn’t care about his raging usations. She bent down slightly and inquired,


    “Let me ask you this, then. Who sent you here to cause trouble?”


    The journalist spat fiercely and retorted, “As if I will tell you anything, given how you’re


    treating me!”


    “How have I treated you? Are you expecting me to serve you a throne?”


    “This is a society governed by the rule ofw. Continue to treat me like this, and I’ll


    have you imprisoned.”


    However, Elspeth only found his words amusing.


    “Imprisoned? Oh, I wouldn’t be so sure if I were you.” Looking at his fearless


    expression, Elspeth asked, “Perhaps you’ve heard of the Evil Wind Sect?”


    The expression on the journalist’s face froze at once.


    He had certainly heard of the terrifying Evil Wind Sect, but he always thought it was


    too far removed from his own life, so he had never considered the matter. However,


    his mind couldn’t catch up for a moment when this seemingly harmless woman in front


    of him told him so bluntly about it.


    “What’s your rtionship with this organization?”


    An ominous feeling suddenly arose within the journalist, but he didn’t dare ask.


    “Didn’t you say I have influence? It’s right in front of you now. Do you still not get it?”


    Now, not only the journalist but even Yelena was taken off guard.


    She was truly dumbfounded. She had thought she had be immune to such


    things now, but she was still caught off guard when Elspeth revealed her alias out of Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    the blue.


    “Elspeth, are you a mob boss?” Yelena’s voice squeaked from the side.


    Elspeth became frustrated at once. “It’s a long story. I’ll exin it to youter.”


    At that, Yelena nodded nkly.


    Meanwhile, the journalist had lost his previous arrogance entirely. He had heard about


    the organization and knew it was not to be trifled with.


    “So, can you answer my questions now, sir?” Elspeth revealed a gentle smile.


    “You… I…” The journalist resigned to fate, realizing that he hadn’t gained anything. As


    such, he decided to spill everything he knew. “Alright, I’ll tell you the truth. The


    Alphascape Group hired me to do this, but I haven’t received any money from them


    yet, so all of this has nothing to do with me.”


    The man was quick-witted, knowing how to distance himself from the situation.


    That said, Elspeth’s thoughts were no longer focused on him but on the Alphascape


    Group.


    The Alphascape Group again?! From tampering with the medicine in the factory to


    targeting Yelena in the hospital, they even want to mess with me during the press


    conference now. Do they really think I’m some pushover?


    There was no longer any need to continue enduring. It would only fuel Yena’s


    arrogance and make her even more presumptuous.


    “Do you want to live?” Elspeth smirked.


    The journalist quickly nodded. “Of course, I’ll answer whatever you ask.”


    His obedience pleased Elspeth. She no longer gave him trouble but instead asked


    directly, “Send me all the evidence, such as everything they told you and the contact


    information.”


    The journalist was taken aback, seemingly surprised that she knew about the


    evidence he had kept.


    He remembered that he hadn’t told anyone when he saved those pieces of evidence.
