Capítulo 956: Chapter 956: This Is the Conspiracy
Immediately after, Christopher Lewis stepped forward, grabbed Owen Winton by the collar, and punched him hard, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.
“We’ve tolerated you time and again, did you really think our patience was a blessing?”
Christopher’s arm muscles were bulging, and even Alitzel Williams rarely saw him so angry; this time, he was clearly infuriated.
The Winton father and daughter were indeed infuriating, constantly stirring up trouble. The old man had previously promised not to pursue Emma Winton’s scheming against Wyatt Lewis out of old ties, yet they turned the tables and schemed against the Lewis Family instead.
No tolerance should be afforded to the Winton Family, none at all.
After taking two punches, Owen Winton chuckled instead of getting angry. He stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked coldly at Christopher, and said in a cold voice, “Your Lewis Family is really too much. Your son hurt my daughter, and instead of me settling accounts with you, you’re the ones who came to attack me first.”
“You all got that on camera, right? The Lewis Family is simply too arrogant,” Owen Winton suddenly raised his voice and shouted.
Christopher and Alitzel looked up and saw several reporters not far away, aiming their cameras right at them, having recorded the whole scene just now.
Owen Winton flashed a provoking smile at the two of them.
Christopher snorted; his face showed no panic. Knowing Owen Winton as a cunning person, he wouldn’t have taken a beating without a reason. So what if there were reporters and cameras? Christopher still hit him because his patience had run thin.
“You want to interview and have many questions? Ask away; I’ll answer you properly now,” Christopher said in a stern and cold voice.
Since he said that, of course, the reporters seized the opportunity to question him.
Reporter, “Just now, according to what Chairman Lewis said, the Lewis Family still firmly asserts that Young Master Lewis is innocent and has been wronged, right?”
“Of course, it’s just another one of Owen Winton’s schemes. I know my son; he might not be smart, but he’s not a fool. Committing a crime in broad daylight doesn’t sound ridiculous to you? If he had done it behind the scenes, it would even be more believable than this.”
Reporter, “But according to the reactions of those present at the time, Young Master Lewis acted out of extreme anger leading to the series of incidents. Doesn’t an emotional loss of control causing harm seem reasonable?”
“Ha.” Christopher sneered, “Loss of control? Ridiculous, if he truly lost control of his emotions, he wouldn’t just want to push Emma away; he’d punch her directly. Also, the weapon used was a dagger; do you think a normal person would carry a dagger on themselves at all times?”
Owen Winton spoke hauntingly from the side, “Then you should ask Wyatt Lewis what he was thinking at the time. Perhaps he always wanted to kill Emma.”
“Really? Then why is your daughter still lying peacefully in the hospital room? If what you said were true, Emma should have been taken away for cremation by now,” Christopher retorted sharply.
After confronting Owen Winton, Christopher turned to the reporters, “Publish every word I’ve said without missing a single one.”
Christopher said this and then directly pulled Alitzel away.
Owen Winton tensed his lips, patted the dust off his clothes, and turned to a less populated area to make a phone call, “What’s the situation with that female reporter?”
“Rest assured, it’s been taken care of. I believe whether she has a backup or not, she won’t dare release it again.”
“What do you mean by whether or not she has a backup? Didn’t you clean it up thoroughly?”
“We smashed her camera and computer and took the memory card from the camera because the Lewis Family people were still there. We had to leave first, but our people observed her; she’s already terrified and won’t dare do anything further.”
Without a definitive answer, Owen Winton felt uneasy.
“You need to make another trip and ensure the video is completely dealt with.”
“But…” Owen Winton’s subordinate hesitated for a moment, “Chairman, the Lewis Family’s bodyguards are already at the female reporter’s door; we can’t make a move right now.”
“Useless!” Owen Winton cursed angrily.
Not cleaning up thoroughly leaves a huge hidden danger.
“Stay around her, and if anything happens, act accordingly.”
“Yes.”
Owen Winton hung up the phone, his narrow eyes narrowing, revealing a cold and ruthless gaze.
Emma Winton lay in the hospital room, listening clearly to the conversation between Owen Winton and Christopher Lewis. Her eyes showed no emotion. Whatever she should or shouldn’t have done, she had done it; there was nothing more she could do, nor did she want to get involved.
…
Christopher Lewis and Alitzel Williams walked out of the hospital. Alitzel checked the time, frowning, “I’ll call Little Hope and ask what the situation is now.”
Hope Williams and Aria Richardson had just gotten in the car when they received a call from Alitzel.
Hope pursed her lips, trying to avoid worrying the three seniors at home. She only mentioned that they were still investigating and did not reveal the earlier incidents.
After ending the call with Alitzel, Hope immediately called Waylon Lewis to inquire about his side of things.
Clearly, Waylon Lewis also had no progress.
Hope raised her hand to rub her temples. Currently, the only hope lay in Scarlett Summer.
Aria Richardson lowered her eyes, glanced slowly towards Hope, and in her eyes was a mix of regret and shame, “Hope.”
“What’s wrong?” Hope was busy checking the latest online public opinion trends.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said those things earlier. Are you angry? If you are, hit me, scold me.”
