Chapter 1506 What Are You Doing


    Although they were faced with many reporters hired by Darren, Jacob and David were able to answer


    all the questions without a hitch.


    Thinking that they were probably out of the woods now, Jacob casually pointed at a reporter. She


    looked gentle and harmless as she sat timidly in the front row, so Jacob figured that he would give her


    a chance to ask a question.


    When she stood up, the reporter looked a little shy and embarrassed to be in front of them.


    Almost all of the reporters had gotten the answers that they wanted from David and Jacob. The


    reporter who stood up didn''t seem like the type who would ask intimidating questions that were hard to


    answer, so the other reporters didn''t pay any attention to her. Some of the reporters were even


    preparing to leave the venue and were only waiting for the closing remarks of the press conference.


    "Mr. Gu, in the previous press conference that you held, you mentioned that the KING Group is a


    competitor of HT Group. You also said that Mr. Darren Xu was always thoroughly beaten by you no


    matter how hepeted with you. However, as we all witnessed these past few days, the quality of the


    KING Group''s products was notpromised in any way. They are aplete opposite of the quality


    of HT Group''s products. Does this mean that you''ve been defeated by Mr. Xu?"


    The female reporter''s voice was gentle, but her question was anything but. Jacob felt as if he was


    being indicted.


    The room went silent as everyone waited for an answer.


    David squinted at the female reporter, trying to get a closer look at her face.


    If he hadn''t investigated and discovered that Darren had hired a bunch of reporters to attend the


    conference, then he probably wouldn''t have realized that this female reporter was also working for


    Darren.


    The reporter looked inexperienced. It seemed that she hadn''t been in the journalism industry for that


    long. As he observed the reporter, David noted that she was the embodiment of the saying that new-


    born calves did not fear tigers.


    Jacob did not attempt to deflect from the question. On the contrary, he answered it with as much poise


    and grace as he had had when answering other questions.


    "This current situation is still under investigation. If the investigation shows that the products of our HT


    Group genuinely had quality problems, then we will deal with them seriously. But if someone set us up


    with ill intentions, then we will make sure that the legal department of the HT Group handles it and


    never lets the culprit go, whoever they may be," he exined.


    After he finished talking, he raised his head proudly. Then, he looked directly into the camera, which


    was broadcasting the press conference live. "He whoughsstughs best. Regarding the question


    about whether I have lost to Darren or not, I say that it''s not over yet. Please wait and see. Besides, the


    truth wille out sooner andter. I hope a certain someone remembers that."


    "Ha-ha!" Darren looked at Jacob on the screen of his television with a smirk. Jacob actually had the


    nerve to threaten him like that. "Then… Let us wait and see," he sneered.


    Even though Jacob had practically threatened him on live television, Darren was unfazed. After all, he


    was the mastermind behind the food poisoning issue. It definitely set HT Group back by a hundred


    steps.


    Just now, Jacob had imed that the truth woulde out sooner orter.


    Unfortunately for Jacob, Darren was confident that they would not find an ounce of evidence that would


    tie him to the incident.


    "What did he say? Wait and see?" Darren, who was lost in deep thought about Jacob''s threat, suddenly


    red at the person who spoke. When he saw that it was just Bonnie, his gaze immediately softened


    and became gentler.


    Bonnie was taken aback by Darren''s cold gaze. She exined carefully, "I knocked on the door a few


    times, but I didn''t hear any answer. The research and development department told me that this


    document is quite urgent, so I figured you would want it as soon as possible."


    Her voice got lower as she spoke. Thest sentence she said was murmured so softly that it was


    almost as if she was whispering to the wind.


    All of a sudden, Darren burst into a peal of amusedughter. He stood up, walked over to her, and held


    her hand. "I was just thinking about something serious before you came in. I thought you were


    someone else."


    As she heard Darren''s exnation, Bonnie breathed out a sigh of relief. She looked up at Darren again


    with a doe-eyed expression. When she was sure that he wasn''t in a bad mood, she said, "I thought I


    was disturbing you or something."


    "You could never disturb me. I told you on the first day you came here that you don''t need to knock on


    the door to enter my office." He affectionately rubbed Bonnie''s hair and guided her to the sofa.


    He coaxed her to sit down.


    "I need some time to read the document you gave me. You''ve been busy these past few days. Why


    don''t you sit down for a while and get some rest?" Without waiting for Bonnie''s objection to the matter,


    he took the document back to his desk to read it in detail. He had an expression that said he didn''t


    want to be bothered.


    Seeing this, Bonnie curled her lips into a smile as she felt an odd warmth in her heart.


    It seemed that Darren still cared about her.


    Darren did care about her. He was even concerned about her well-being.


    He had witnessed how hard Bonnie had been working these past few days. Despite being even busier


    than Bonnie every day, he still felt guilty. He didn''t want her to also grow tired from helping his


    company.


    He decided to leave those thoughts of worry for now and focus on the task at hand. He started to


    meticulously read the document and signed it. When he raised his head to ask Bonnie to take the


    document away, he saw that the woman had peacefully fallen asleep on the sofa.


    Bonnie hadn''t been sleeping well these days. It seemed that she wanted to keep herself awake, but


    she just felt so drained from working. As a result, she had dozed off as soon as sheid her head on


    the sofa. It was the first time she had slept peacefully in days.


    Seeing her beautiful sleeping face, Darren smiled affectionately and sighed helplessly.


    He didn''t understand why Bonnie had to be so stubborn.


    Since Bonnie felt so distressedst time, she had begun to work even harder. In addition to her normal


    working hours, she continued to study untilte at night once she got back home. There were several


    times that Darren had had to force her to go to bed because she refused to, even though she was


    already tired.


    Every day, she would do her best to cover the dark circles under her eyes with makeup. However, they


    were getting harder and harder to conceal.


    Thinking of her hard work in thest few days, Darren walked over to the sofa and slowly picked her


    up. He figured that she would be morefortable in the lounge. But the moment his hands touched


    her knees, she woke up with a small yawn.


    Bonnie rubbed her eyes and struggled to sit up.


    Realizing that she probably wanted to get back to work, Darren angrily poked her forehead. "You need


    to get some sleep. If you keep working so hard, you will get sick and copse," he scolded.


    "But my work…" she started to protest.


    "Work, work, work. You''re always working every day. If you don''t go to bed now, I''ll have to fire you."


    Shocked at his words, Bonnie blinked up at him to see if he was serious. Then, she reluctantly walked


    into the lounge.


    After getting some work done, Darren decided to put his work aside and check up on Bonnie in the


    lounge.


    Under normal circumstances, no outsider was ever allowed in his lounge. Now, there was a young


    woman in deep slumber there. The scene felt so rxing.


    Darren walked over and sat down on the edge of the bed. He caressed Bonnie''s smooth face


    unconsciously.


    She was the sweetest person he''d ever known. However, when it came to work, she was tough, even


    on herself. Everything about her was attractive. She was like a ma that just kept pulling him closer


    and closer.

    "You are truly one-of-a-kind." Darren brushed his fingers over her soft, red lips. They were slightly


    pouted. She seemed to be having a pleasant dream from the way she was softly murmuring out words.


    Her long eyshes cast a shadow on her eyelids. Even though she was in deep sleep, her cherry-red


    mouth still looked enticing.


    Darren couldn''t help but lean over so he could take a closer look at her face. When the distance


    between the two of them decreased, Darren felt intoxicated by her fragrance.


    "What are you doing?" Bonnie suddenly opened her eyes when she felt someone''s breath on hers. It


    turned out to be Darren, whose face was only a few inches away from her. Realizing this, she couldn''t


    help but blush.
