Wen Haowen’s press conference comnced at ten o’clock sharp in the morning of the following day. All of the reporters who were invited were reputable ones in the dia industry.
Wen Haowen sat in the main seat on the podium, accompanied by a few shareholders of the Wen Corporation. He was dressed in a gray suit and a light blue shirt, paired with a dark blue tie. He looked low profile and refined, exuding an elite aura.
The reporters snapped photos of Wen Haowen continuously.
Due to the fact that he was forced into holding the press conference, Wen Haowen did not look too good, regardless of how hard he tried to bear with the discomfort and displeasure. However, the look of agony on his face was regarded as an expression of remorse by the reporters.
Wen Haowen tried his best to bear with the reporters snapping photos of him from every angle while listening to them gossip about him brazenly. He felt rather insulted and humiliated by the looks of disdain on their faces.
It was the first ti that he had faced the dia ever since the release of the news of his scandal. “Thank you, everyone, for taking the ti out of your busy schedules to attend my press conference.”
The reporters imdiately quietened down.
Wen Haowen continued, “Throughout the past few days, the dia has been reporting about my extramarital affair with Yang Ziyu, one of the Wen Corporation’s employees. Ever since then, the public has been raising doubts about my morals and character. I have also caused the death of my first wife because of my affair with Ning Shuqian. As a result, my reputation was ruined and I’ve been known as scum. I shall give everyone an explanation during the press conference today.”
The reporters broke into commotion again and began snapping photos of Wen Haowen from every angle.
Wen Haowen had decided to go all out since he was going to be embarrassed either way. Hence, he might as well co clean about everything, including Mo Yunyao’s death. “I believe all of you know that I’ve been married to my current wife Ning Shuqian for more than a decade, and we’ve always been close. However, I’d never expected that she would fake her pregnancy to plot against my only daughter, Wen Xinya. She lied to and fooled my entire family. Hence... I couldn’t tolerate her behavior and initiated a divorce.”
He had completely made himself out to be the victim.
Wen Haowen was not bothered by the reporters’ caras flashing in his face and continued, “Ning Shuqian was extrely displeased about the divorce and refused to sign the divorce papers. Hence, I’ve been feeling rather frustrated. So, I headed to the bar for so drinks. Who’d think that I’d run into Yang Ziyu there? She was the one who approached first, and I had a drop too many...”
The caras kept flashing on his face and he said, “The Wen Family has verified after so investigation, that Yang Ziyu was the one who set up and lured to commit adultery. Yang Ziyu followed from the office all the way to the bar, and she clearly had an ulterior motive. She wanted to take advantage of the animosity between and Ning Shuqian.”
The reporters raised their concerns after hearing his explanation. “Although everyone knows that Yang Ziyu was the one who plotted against you, do you have any concrete evidence to prove that she was really the one who devised everything?”
Wen Haowen stared at the reporter and said, “I know that not everyone is going to be convinced by my words. So, I have a witness here who can vouch for and testify against Yang Ziyu for harboring designs on .”
The reporters broke into commotion.
Next, a woman entered the venue awkwardly, clad in a black dress.
The woman was of similar age as Yang Ziyu, and she looked much plainer as well. She appeared extrely nervous in front of the reporters and said shyly, “Hello... hello, everyone! I’m Yang Ziyu’s friend!”
She then revealed so details about Yang Ziyu’s private life, as well as everything she knew about Yang Ziyu’s exceptional attention towards Wen Haowen.
The details that she revealed were similar to the reports released by the dia, though she was much more convincing because she was an eyewitness. Hence, it was much more believable that Yang Ziyu had indeed plotted against Wen Haowen.
“CEO Wen, you’ve been staying in recluse in the Wen Family ho, ever since the news of your adulterous affair broke. You’ve even paused your work at the Wen Corporation and refrained from giving any explanation for your actions. May I ask... if you’re just acting irresponsibly?”
Wen Haowen said calmly, “The Wen Family has been wanting to keep the information confidential and my father, Mr. Wen Zhihang, has always been known to be shrewd and resolute. How could he possibly tolerate the fact that I committed adultery? As soon as my affair was exposed, my father beat up and caused to sustain severe injuries. Hence, I’ve been staying at ho to nurse my injuries and it was convenient for to resu work. At the sa ti, my father and I were also trying to find out the truth behind my scandal. Hence, it’s not true that I was too irresponsible to own up.”
The photos of Wen Haowen being whipped by Old Mr. Wen were then displayed on the large screen behind him, proof of Wen Haowen telling the truth. It also further emphasized how strict the Wen Family was with their heirs, thus retorting against the claims of the Wen Family being immoral.
“CEO Wen, the news of your adulterous affair has caused the Wen Corporation’s stock prices to plunge trendously and so far, it has already plunged by more than 700 points, breaking the record high. Rumor has it that the shareholders are all displeased with you and they have even suggested a change in CEO. Did you hold this press conference at the last minute so as to give the shareholders an answer?”
An apologetic expression ford on Wen Haowen’s face and he said, “I was the one who caused the Wen Family’s reputation to be ruined and I implicated the Wen Family too, causing the Wen Corporation’s interests to be hard. I feel extrely sorry and remorseful about that. I hope that the shareholders will give a chance to make up for my mistakes.”
Wen Haowen’s answer was enough to express his apology and make him seem like he was not just trying to salvage his position as CEO, and was instead sparing a thought for the Wen Corporation’s benefits.
Appearing extrely sincere, Wen Haowen said, “I didn’t wish for this affair to happen, but it has indeed caused a major impact on society. I hereby apologize to everyone. The Wen Corporation’s stock prices have also plunged and the interests of the stockholders have been hard. I’ve caused everyone to incur major losses. I’m very sorry about that. I can also guarantee that you all will recoup all of your losses.”
Wen Haowen’s seemingly genuine and sincere words had garnered lots of responses.
Wen Haowen continued, “More than two years ago, the Wen Family acquired Ai Shang Group and made it part of the Wen Corporation, after which we invested a large amount of funds to support Ai Shang Group’s research team, in a bid to manufacture better products. We’ve also aided them in purchasing the most advanced technological equipnt and nurture the best research mbers. After two years, our products have been refined to perfection and they have also been launched in the market. Kindly pay more attention to the Wen Family and support Ai Shang Group.”
The reporters were sent into a frenzy.
The launching of Ai Shang Group’s products was major news that they had to get their hands on. After all, the Wen Family and Xiao Family were business rivals and the Xiao Family had paved the way for the Wen Family to acquire Ai Shang Group.
