“They’ve got concrete evidence! What else do you need to look into?” Eleanor challenged with displeasure.
“Arrest them right now, or I’ll sue you for abuse of power! This is an order!”
“What?” Mr. Zagatti frowned, his expression darkened.
“Mr. Zagatti, look around you. Countless pairs of eyes are watching, and reporters are also present. Are you really going to cover up for these people?” Ezra demanded sharply.
“Well…” Mr. Zagatti found himself stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Though he dared not offend the Dawsons, the power of public opinion was equally as formidable. If any exaggerated news were to be reported, it would make things very messy for him.
“Ezra Swanson, you better watch your words, or I’ll sue you for defamation,” Bo said calmly.
“Mr. Dawson, this is something between us and the Camrons. Please do not interfere,” Ezra said.
“The Dawson family and the Camron family are now allies. Dew Balm is a joint production between both families. Do you think that I can stay out of this? “Bo rolled his eyes.
“Mr. Dawson, I’m just giving you a kind reminder. If you do not heed my advice, be prepared to face the consequences!”
As Ezra spoke, he suddenly raised his volume. “How much of a loss do you think it will bring to the Dawson family once the media reports about the news that Dawson Medical Group has killed someone?”
“I will sue whichever media company that publishes fake news for defamation. I will see to it that they get thrown into prison!” Bo had no fear of Ezra’s threats.
“Mr. Dawson, don’t go around thinking that just because the Dawson family is influential, you can stop the news from spreading! Now that there’s a life involved, there is no way you’d be able to cover things up!
“I’m afraid even you won’t be able to handle the consequences if things get blown out of proportion,” Ezra hinted.
“A life involved?” Bo’s gaze fell on the corpse in the coffin as he scoffed. “Who told you that this person died because of Dew Balm?”
“Hah! We have witnesses and evidence here! How could it possibly be fake?” the middle-aged man shouted. Bo did not attempt to explain. Instead, he simply snapped his fingers.
Soon, one of Bo’s bodyguards, Elara, produced a document. She said coolly,” According to our latest investigation, the deceased was intentionally poisoned. The substance that had poisoned him was arsenic.
“And here are the ingredients for Dew Balm. After official testing, it is proven that it contains no harmful substances.
“Hence, the claim that Dew Balm had killed someone is nothing but a false accusation. Look here, everyone!”
As Elara spoke, she unfolded a document and displayed it to all the onlookers and reporters. That elicited a series of whispers from them.
Dawson Medical Group had a great reputation, and now that they had evidence, people couldn’t help but wonder how true the accusation was.
“These are all fake evidence! Don’t trust them!” The middle-aged man was flustered. He reached out to grab the documents, but Elara kicked him, sending him falling to the ground.
Then, she pulled out another document and announced frostily, “This amazing son here bought a substantial amount of accidental insurance for his father yesterday and appointed himself as the beneficiary.
“Besides, he’s also a gambling addict with huge amounts of debt. He is notorious for that from where he came from. I have full reason to suspect that he murdered his father for the sake of money!”
Once Elara said that, the man’s expression changed immediately. He roared, “Nonsense! You’re spouting utter nonsense!”
“Nonsense?” Elara scoffed and pulled out a pack of drugs. “These are remnants of arsenic found in your house. Your fingerprints have been found on them.
“After a thorough investigation, we’re sure there is no mistake. We have solid evidence here, so there’s no use denying it anymore!”
When he saw that, the middle-aged man’s knees gave way. He slumped to the ground, his expression ashened. He was done for. He was completely done for now!
