NovelEnglishChapter 199 Formidable Background Every article and video of the young woman that was shared or reposted by the masses would rack up The Nines Entertainment's revenue.
The more the people talked about and condemned her, the more the company earned.

As a result, Strawberry Cloud was gone and grieved for by her parents.
Yet, The Nines Entertainment had made a profit out of this issue and 9 away unscathed.
After listening to Adam tell the full story, Lucas nearly imploded. He glowered at Adam and seethed, "You call a wicked enterprise like that excellent?" Dom was shaking with anger. Ever the empath, he felt tears pricking his eyes as he demanded, “What did that young lady do that was so wrong? Tell me!" Adam flinched and shrunk into himself.
Wynter's gaze darkened. "And you're working with The Nines Entertaito me. You're planning to use controversies and scandals to crush me." "What?" Dom thundered. He could feel his blood pressure spiking.
S tto do the sthing Adam blanched. He quickly denied this. "No, that's not true! I couldn't sleep for months after the last incident. I promise you, that's not my intention at all." "Really?" Wynter drawled, "Someone maliciously reported my live-streaming channel and spread vile rumors about it.
"That someone is none other than Ivan Yarbrough, the manager of The Nines Entertainment." Chapter 199 Formidable Background "You! Adam Weissman!" Dom hollered. He wanted to beat up the corrupt officer.
Adam shook his head frantically. “No, I didn't do it. I promise. My only orders were to arrest you. I...” Wynter knew there was no point in needling Adam any further. But at least she could offer speace to the late Strawberry Cloud.
If The Nines Entertainment thought the Yates' legal team could get them out of any wrongdoing, then they were wrong.
Meanwhile, following his arrest, Ivan demanded to see Jeras soon as he was brought to the police station.
However, every police station operated differently.

Special task forces belonged to a different jurisdiction.

"We've been nothing but professional, and we're a well-known social enterprise too. You can't just arrest us and bring us in based on sanonymous tip.
"I need to speak to Mr. Grayson directly." In the past, that line could make any interrogator wonder if they'd offend Ivan with their questioning. Unexpectedly, the man who was interrogating him this twas young. He had a gun strapped to his waist and a scar under the corner of his eye.
He chuckled at Ivan's words and said, "Oh, don't worry, Mr. Grayson will join you soon." At first, Ivan thought he still had the hope of getting out.
That was until he saw Jerbeing led into the room in handcuffs.
The color drained from Ivan's face as he gaped at the interrogating officer. He could feel cold sweat blooming across his forehead. "W-Why is Mr. Grayson..."
"You mean the person who hired you didn't tell you?" The interrogator om toyed with a lighter as he bit out, One of the people who was arrested due to your little schis the new Secretary-General of the City Bureau."
