Chapter 115: Radioactive Elements
Following the security guard, Jane walked to the front gate.
A crowd had gathered at the gate, and many reporters were holding cameras.
Seeing Janeing out, a man pointed at her and shouted, "It''s her, it''s her! I''ve seen her on TV.
Jane, the person in charge of the ''Ice and Fire'' project."
The crowd moved toward Jane.
"What''s going on?" Jane asked with a slight frown.
Reporters rushed to interview Jane. "Miss North, there are reports that the materials used in Pansy
Group''s ''Ice and Fire'' series are substandard and contain radioactive elements. What are your
thoughts on this?"
"Miss North, is it true that Pansy Group, to cut costs, used materials with radioactive elements,
leading to poisoning in people who wore the ''Ice and Fire'' jewelry?"
One question after another bombarded Jane. She took a deep breath.
"Ice and Fire" jewelry containing radioactive elements?
How could that be possible?
Pansy Group''s raw materials undergo strict scrutiny; such a fatal error should not ur.
Unless... someone deliberately set them up.
But Jane wasn''t entirely sure about the details at the moment. Everything had to wait until a
thorough investigation was conducted to reach a conclusion.
She spoke calmly, "Please, everyone, quiet down. All products from Pansy Group undergo rigorous
testing and are only sold after confirmation of their quality. It is impossible for them to contain any
radioactive elements. I believe this is a misunderstanding."
"A misunderstanding?" A stylishly dressed middle-aged woman walked up to Jane, pointing. "My
sister got poisoned after wearing the ''Ice and Fire'' ne. She''s in the hospital right now, and the
doctor said if she hade a few dayster, she might not have survived! How can this be a
misunderstanding?"
"Thisdy, your sister''s poisoning may have various reasons, not necessarily rted to our
company''s products." Jane coldly replied.
"Of course, it''s rted to you!" The middle-aged woman said angrily. "The doctor has examined my
sister, and it''s radiation poisoning. The source is your ''Ice and Fire'' ne! I have the test results
here, proving that your ne contains radioactive elements!"
The man next to the middle-aged woman held a stack of papers. "Everyone, take a look. These are
copies of the test results. It clearly states that Pansy Group''s ne contains radioactive
elements, causing poisoning. In severe cases, it can lead to death! We spent so much money on
Pansy Group''s jewelry, only to end up poisoned and in the hospital! Pansy Group is selling
substandard products, making money without a conscience! "
"That''s right, today we must get an exnation for this!" The middle-aged woman and the man
echoed each other.
Jane nced at the test results in the man''s hand, unable to determine their authenticity
immediately. The immediate priority was to investigate and find out what had happened.
She cleared her throat and spoke in a deep voice, "Pansy Group will definitely investigate this
thoroughly. Before we reach a conclusion, we hope you can cooperate with us. Why don''t you go
back for now? I''ll send someone to check whether the ne you purchased has any real issues.
If it''s indeed a problem with Pansy Group, we will provide you with a satisfactory solution."
"Of course, it''s a real issue!" The middle-aged woman pointed at Jane fiercely. "Don''t think about
dying. If Pansy Group doesn''t give us an exnation today, we won''t leave!"
Jane frowned, about to respond when a cold, stern voice cut through, "Pansy Group will definitely
uncover the truth and provide an exnation to everyone!"
Jane looked up and saw Patrick striding toward her with a steady pace.
Reporters surrounded Patrick immediately. "Mr. Pansy, what are your thoughts on today''s incident?
Did Pansy Group really use substandard materials to produce the ''Ice and Fire'' jewelry series?"
Patrick''s handsome eyebrows slightly furrowed, and his striking face turned stern. "I can only say
that Pansy Group has always adhered to the principle of putting customers first, striving to provide
the best products. We never use substandard materials. As for today''s incident, I will investigate it
thoroughly. If it''s indeed an oversight on Pansy Group''s part, we will take full responsibility and
provide a satisfactory exnation to the consumers."
After a pause, his tone grew even more severe, "If it turns out that someone intentionally framed
Pansy Group, we will make sure they pay the price!"
Faced with Patrick''s overwhelming presence, the middle-aged woman involuntarily took a step
back. "Fine, we''ll wait for the results of Pansy Group''s investigation!"
The security guard kept the reporters outside, and Jane followed Patrick to the CEO''s office.
"How do you see this situation?" Patrick asked as he sat down, tapping his desk with his fingertips.
Without hesitation, Jane replied, "In theory, every step of the ''Ice and Fire'' production undergoes
strict scrutiny. It''s impossible for radioactive elements to be present unless someone tampered with
it."
"It''s not easy to tamper with it," Patrick said, his voice nonchnt.
Indeed, Pansy Group''s factory had strict security, making it difficult for outsiders to tamper with the
products.
Jane nodded in agreement, "So, I''ve always thought that the most likely scenario is someone trying
to frame us."
"What do you think, who could it be?" Patrick''s voice was clear and deep.

Jane smiled, "With the crisis facing the ''Ice and Fire'' from Pansy Group, whoever benefits the most
is the most likely culprit behind it."
Patrick leaned slightly back into the chair, "I agree with you; Love Jewelry is likely behind this."
"Not ruling out that possibility. In fact, with a quick investigation, we should be able to get to the
bottom of it," Jane raised a corner of her lips.
This matter wasn''t challenging to investigate. Just by checking where the woman''s so-called sister
purchased the ne, verifying if it indeed contained radioactive elements, and determining if
someone tampered with it, the truth could be revealed quickly.
Indeed, at this stage, Love Jewelry was the most suspicious. The previous giarism incident had
caused a stir, and while Pansy Group had triumphed, Love Jewelry suffered significant damage to
its reputation.
Now, resorting to underhanded tactics to frame Pansy Group was entirely usible.
Patrick called in Morton, "Investigate the incident with the ''Ice and Fire'' ne and the im of it
containing radioactive elements. Find out what happened."
"Yes, sir," Morton responded respectfully.
However, bafflingly, before Morton could uncover substantial results, several more cases of
poisoning due to wearing "Ice and Fire" jewelry emerged.
