Chapter 1292: 585 Impact_1 Chapter 1292: 585 Impact_1 The Maritime Transportation Group is located in the CBD center.
Its logo, a line-drawn ship designed using the character for Rinto as a prototype, makes quite an impression.
This logo is rumored to have been designed by Pindo Rinto himself and has been in use for over a decade.
All ships going to sea bear this logo.
Wherever the ships sail, people around the world can see this mark as the sails billow.
At this moment, the front of the group’s headquarters was packed with people, including the relatives of the victims, sensationalist media reporters, and bystanders.
For a while, the entrance was completely obstructed, and it took the entire security team of the group to barely maintain order.
...
“Did the cargo ship meet with a disaster or vanish?
Why hasn’t anyone from your group taken responsibility yet?
Are the lives of the one hundred and thirty-seven people on board insignificant to you?”
“Where are Manager Rinto and Manager Wood?
This is a significant incident; why haven’t they given the public an explanation?”
“The international route has always been very dangerous, with frequent reports of pirates.
Didn’t your company provide enough personal protection for your sailors?
Is that the reason why the cargo ship had an accident?
What are you hiding with your silence?”
Yapiter, Ricky Wood’s assistant and a young man with black rimmed glasses, was the one assigned to handle this.
Usually a mature and steady character, he now coldly responded to the aggressive questioning from the journalists, “A journalist should rely on facts, not rumours without basis to stir up feelings.
Reporter from the Pethkids News, wouldn’t you agree?”
The journalist was momentarily startled, speechless.
Yapiter, facing everyone, declared in a resounding voice, “Everyone please remain calm, the group will definitely give everyone an answer.
You can follow our official website, any news will be announced on it ASAP.”
“All you’re doing is evading responsibility!
We just want a result.
If you drag this out, it will just be forgotten.
My son just turned twenty, he was so young and yet he was harmed by your unscrupulous company.
You must give us an answer today!” A man’s voice rang out loudly from the crowd.
As his words subsided, the previously somewhat quiet crowd became incensed once more, calling out for an explanation.
Yapiter narrowed his eyes and pinpointed a man in the crowd, who in turn, avoided Yapiter’s gaze.
Yapiter’s hand was put behind his back, the captain of the security team understood his gesture and subtly retreated.
This time, the enraged crowd couldn’t be appeased with a few words from Yapiter, they were all common people and any use of force would likely backfire.
Yapiter looked at the chaos before him and was deeply troubled.
Just as all this transpired, Manager Wood and Master Mckay had had an accident, rendering no one in charge.
It was truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly.
Suddenly, a resonant voice stood out from the racket, accurately and clearly landing in everyone’s ear.
“What explanation do you all want?”
The crowd quieted down for a moment.
Yapiter looked at the Young Lady who was approaching, and his eyes lit up, “Mistress.”
The life-saving straw couldn’t have come at a better time.
The crowd automatically made way for her; a young lady in a black coat with a sleeping pet in her arms, slowly walked through them.
The midday sun was strikingly bright, shining on the young lady’s face, illuminating her fair skin like an exceptional piece of mutton-fat jade, emitting a soft, warm radiance.
Not glaring, yet stunningly mesmerizing.
The Young Lady slowly turned around.
Everyone noticed, this was the first time Ms.
Aubree was seen not wearing a skirt.
Under her black coat, she wore black skinny jeans exhibiting her long, straight legs.
It was as if they were replicas right out of a comic. 𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑝𝑢𝘣.𝘤𝑜𝘮
The all-black attire emphasized her exposed skin, enhancing its fairness.
Everyone was momentarily taken aback.
The Young Lady leisurely scanned the scene and every individual present, with a gentle yet firm gaze.
She spoke methodically, “I am Aubree Groove, I am now in charge of everything related to the Maritime Transportation Group.”
She paused and then continued before anyone could react, “This was an unexpected incident that caught everyone off guard.
Regardless, the responsibility falls on the group.
On behalf of the group, I would like to apologize to all family members.”
Ms.
Aubree bowed.
For some reason, everyone instinctively took a step back.
At this moment, a cloud covered the sun, darkening the sky.
Someone said, “No, no, no, Ms.
Aubree, you’re a good person.
The charity foundation you founded has helped so many people.
My grandson is one of the many who was cured thanks to your assistance, otherwise, even if our family had gone bankrupt, we still wouldn’t have been able to save him.”
