Chapter 95: Chapter 95

Jonathan Redgrave stood on the podium, his face livid, yet he had to force himself to endure as he looked at Seraphina Redgrave, wondering what she would say next.

Seraphina placed a chair directly in front of Jonathan Redgrave and sat down properly, like a student eager to learn, purely untainted by any impurities.

She looked at Jonathan Redgrave with her clear eyes, then slowly raised a megaphone: "Councilman Redgrave, can you hear me clearly?"

Jonathan Redgrave instinctively took two steps back, his eardrums aching, almost deafened.

"Wow! Impressive!" The students were dumbfounded, witnessing a student interrupting a councilman’s speech for the first time, yet it couldn’t be said she was causing trouble, perhaps she just wanted to ask a simple question.

"Fellow student, don’t act ..."

A staff member who had come to his senses tried to escort Seraphina Redgrave off the stage.

Seraphina remained calm, brushing away the person’s hand with a small yet very vicious movement, causing him to fall directly to the ground, looking at this slender girl in disbelief.

"Councilman Redgrave, didn’t you answer the previous students’ questions? Why not let me speak? Is it that ordinary audience members are not allowed to speak?"

The implication was that the previous students were prearranged.

"Let her speak! Let her speak!"

Ronan Yates and his friends deliberately stirred the atmosphere, and the school wasn’t short of those who thrived on drama, forming a momentum.

The auditorium was filled with students loudly demanding that Seraphina be allowed to ask questions.

Some students below had already begun recording with their phones, and the live broadcast continued.

"What the... What exactly does Seraphina want? She won’t even let go of my dad’s speech."

Mia Redgrave was trembling with anger, yet her gaze remained fixed on Seraphina on stage.

Leo Lynch, however, wasn’t anxious, merely looking at Seraphina on stage: "Don’t be afraid, perhaps she just wants to ask Councilman Redgrave a simple question."

"No way! She must want to take reven..."

Mia nearly let it slip.

Fortunately, the noise from the students below was too loud, and Leo didn’t catch much, so he turned to look at the oddly expressive Mia: "Take revenge for what?"

Mia swallowed all those curse words back, her face turning blue with anger.

At this moment, Jonathan Redgrave was even more furious on stage. Why couldn’t those staff members be more flexible? If they had cut off his mic earlier, he would have had an excuse to step down.

Seraphina knew Jonathan Redgrave was furious, and couldn’t help but laugh.

She just wanted to see this scene.

Still hoping to climb higher?

Sorry, today she would see the end of the Redgrave Family here.

Seeing the students getting angrier, their voices growing louder, Jonathan Redgrave finally conceded. He took a deep breath, then forced a smile as he looked at Seraphina and said, "Speak."

Seraphina stood up, and the students gradually quieted down.

After quieting down, they realized something was wrong, they were too obedient to this one person.

The audience gradually became quieter.

Seraphina raised the megaphone and slowly began: "May I ask, what qualities should a councilman possess?"

What kind of question is this?

As expected, just as foolish as before, does she think her presence would throw him off balance?

Jonathan Redgrave regained his composure, looked at the students, and calmly said: "In my eyes, an excellent councilman should be honest and upright, work for the welfare of the public, and place the interests of the people above his own."

Seraphina’s smile was very faint as she looked at Jonathan Redgrave.

Seraphina waited until Jonathan finished speaking, then spoke again: "There is news that you have colluded with the Trent Consortium, even amending laws for the Trent Consortium, completely ignoring the public, pursuing only your interests, is this true?"

Seraphina showed no emotion, yet her words were as cold as January ice.

Jonathan Redgrave looked at Seraphina, maintaining that kindly expression: "I don’t know where such rumors come from, but I can tell you, I haven’t done such things."

He spoke with great righteousness, entirely unaware that the large screen, serving as the stage’s backdrop, had suddenly turned on.

It was a silent video.

Jonathan Redgrave and a man were sitting opposite each other, discussing something unknown.

And that person was Howard Trent, president of the Trent Consortium.

An exclamation of surprise erupted from the audience.

Seraphina’s methods were too formidable!

Mia Redgrave and Leo Lynch were sitting very close to the stage but at an odd angle, unable to see the large screen. They heard the gasps from their classmates but had no idea what had happened.

Jonathan Redgrave, with his back to the large screen, didn’t know what had happened behind him, standing righteously on the stage.

Seraphina continued: "Councilman Redgrave, it’s heard that your daughter Mia went to the countryside to live broadcast selling farm produce, and the farmers are very grateful to you, is that true?"

What exactly did Seraphina plan to do?

Jonathan Redgrave looked at Seraphina in confusion, then proudly said: "Yes, the countryside’s farm produce indeed couldn’t sell, I thought of helping them, the villagers were very kind, they even offered me fruits."

As soon as he finished speaking, the large screen switched scenes.

The camera pointed at the place where Jonathan Redgrave was chatting merrily with a melon farmer, seemingly truly inspecting public sentiment.

However, as soon as the camera turned off, Jonathan Redgrave kicked away the obsequious farmer and pulled out a piece of paper to wipe non-existent germs from his hands.

The farmer crouched in the ditch, trembling.

Jonathan Redgrave seemed to find it amusing and, at his command, the bodyguards began to punch and kick the farmer.

The farmer completely lost his ability to resist, and was kicked and beaten by several strong bodyguards until finally bleeding from his mouth and nose, only then did the bodyguards scatter.

The students held their breath.

What’s going on, is this all true? But it appears the video couldn’t possibly be faked.

Jonathan Redgrave wants to give a speech and canvass? On this scene, how could he canvass?

Every word Jonathan spoke was contradicted by the video dismantling his façade.

He stood on the podium, unsure what the people below were discussing, looking curiously over at Mia Redgrave, hoping for an answer.

Seeing Jonathan cue her, she also curiously stood up and moved near the stage, but was shocked by the content on the large screen, her eyes nearly popping out, shaking all over.

A Country, by the boundless sea, a group of well-dressed men seemed to be dining in an open-air seaside restaurant, but were actually discussing major international business deals.

Armed bodyguards stood nearby, not missing the slightest movement.

It must be known that the big shots seated at the table affected the economic operation of Z Country, how could anything befall them?

"Young Master Sterling, an increase in oil prices is beneficial to us without any drawbacks."

An old man with a kindly smile spoke, looking at Ethan Sterling with sharp eyes devoid of any warmth. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel·fiɾe·net
