Another World Mall-Chapter 612: Secrets

The aftermath of such an incident was huge for the Heshton family.

The moment the citizens saw how Hana was being treated, the people blew up.

"What is going on? The Heshton family was forcing her to sign something?"

"Damian Heshton must be pressuring her, thinking this country is their turf."

"Did they think they’re above the law?"

"What will happen after this? Don’t tell me. Would Hana Skylark pull out the investment? The new beast soul is extremely useful. And our country is the first one to receive it, other than Absalom."

"No way. The Heshton family must pay the price for this."

The people were angry, throwing insults after insults at the Heshton family. The Heshton family could usually suppress them by manipulating the media, but the scale of the attack was simply too big.

In addition, Jeremy Skylark and the Resshia family had cooperated with each other. Obviously, they knew where they should target their first strike.

Before everything blew up, they had actually worked together with several media. With such a huge scoop, the people would be happy and they would gain the favor of the Skylark Conglomerate.

In addition, more and more people were leaving the Heshton family’s side. As a result, the Resshia family gathered them to make an alliance to take down the Heshton family.

While it was true that the plan worked wonderfully, they were possible due to the bad reputation that the Heshton family had.

Of course, the Heshton family would never go down without a fight. They immediately published the picture of Jeremy coming to the Resshia family, claiming that they were plotting against the Resshia family.

It would have been a good counterattack, except for the fact that their weapon was something Jeremy already knew. In fact, he was the one allowing them to get that information.

"I have never really hidden myself. Unlike my granddaughter, who has come here once, I have never really visited this country, so I tag along to see what kind of country this is.

"While looking around, I stumbled upon the Resshia family. After looking at the Resshia family and the Heshton family on the Skynet, I have asked my daughter to look at another potential business partner.

"Unfortunately, she kept saying that the Heshton family was a better choice. Hence, I didn’t attend the second meeting onward because of our disagreement.

"Look at now. She ended up getting betrayed and threatened by the Heshton family. As a grandfather, I can’t simply sit still."

Jeremy skillfully directed people’s opinion to make the Heshton family the biggest villain. Of course, Hana’s reputation took a bit of a hit because of this plan, but this was something they had originally expected.

As long as they managed to settle a new deal and completed the facility, the damage would be gone.

By showing her remorse for not trusting her grandfather, she immediately went to the Resshia family to politely apologize and create a new agreement with them.

Of course, the one in charge of the Resshia family already knew that this was just a publicity stunt. They were merely plotting against the Heshton family.

"The Resshia family accepts the apology and agrees to cooperate with the OpenSky Company to provide the new beast soul for the people." Enjoy exclusive content from novelbuddy

Once the article was published, the Heshton family’s business took a massive hit. Their shares plummeted.

However, there was one more trick that Hana had hidden. She initially tried to give them money to build the project, while the Heshton family also contributed a lot of money.

Unlike the OpenSky Company, the Heshton family didn’t have a high cash flow. As a result, the moment their money was lost, they were stuck, unable to buy back their stock to maintain the stable share price.

Even when they tried to find another source of money, a lot of people had gotten away from them.

Seeing the Heshton suffer so much damage, the people realized that this was the time to attack. If they started biting the Heshton family now, they would still get a piece of the pie.

"It seems everything has gone according to the plan." Jeremy took a sip of his tea while looking at Hana.

"Yeah." Hana nodded. "Sorry for making you get involved in this, Grandfather. I’m afraid I’m unable to do it this quickly and safely without your help."

"That is fine. I’m rather curious about the capability of Clovis Hacfield. If all this is enough to gain a bit of his trust, it’s worth it.

"After all, from what I can see, Clovis has two secrets. The first will be his unique ability, while the second one is everything he is able to take out.

"While he has been hiding it under his grandfather’s or father’s name, I’m sure they are his."

Hana nodded. "Yes. I suspect the same. And I will just follow his scenario."

"Yeah. No need to expose him. Besides, I’m afraid that this second secret is much bigger than his unique ability. I have been wondering… what kind of secret it is, so I can’t help but think about his original goal…"

"His original goal?"

"Yes. What is his original goal?"

"To find the truth about this world, that is said to be only a simulation."

"That’s right. What if his secret is actually linked to that truth? Something extraordinary that is beyond the simulation…"

"!!!" Hana raised her eyebrows. "Are you saying that he is someone that the simulation can’t calculate perfectly or is his existence a kind of bug in the system?"

"Who knows? However, it must be something along those lines. That’s why Clovis’ value is much higher than even a Tier 9.

"Whether it is for the good or for the bad…" Jeremy squinted his eyes.

"Who cares? The only one who can decide whether it’s good or bad is the person himself. As long as he doesn’t change, I believe everything is good." Hana smiled. "I wonder how much money I can get by selling the truth about the world?"

"…" Jeremy looked surprised by her statement before chuckling. "Hahaha."
