Chapter 52 Anna Mills, Newspaper Editor
Chapter 52 Anna Mills, Newspaper Editor
I got out of bed, rubbed my aching head, and clicked an APP on my mobile phone. It was a news APP
in the city, sponsored by a website called Sunshine Newspaper, which had a big market in S city, and
almost 80% of the citizens loved their news.
A line of striking big words into my eyes: SHAME! INNOCENT CIVILIANS WERE BEATEN AND THEIR
HOMES TORN DOWN YESTERDAY!
Below was a picture, which was not very clear, but it showed a large crowd of people fighting around
the bald men, while I stood behind and watched. Everyone's face was blurred, but my face was
extremely clear.
I was short of breath, and then I looked down another headline: SHOCKED! UNSCRUPULOUS
DEVELOPERS FORCED THE POLICE, WHO IS BEHIND THIS?
There was also a picture below, Ben and I took a cigarette, looking at the police, who seemed to be
embarrassed.
If the previous news had made me extremely angry, the later report has made me cold.
This was a trap, which framed me and Mayor Chang to black. No wonder Mayor Chang was so angry.
It must be John Jiang did it. He might have had someone in the corner and secretly shoot us.
I clenched my phone in anger.
I ran to the living room angrily. The gang of drunks was disorderly lying on the ground. I kicked them
angrily and shouted, “Wake up! Wake up! Bad news."
Ben opened his eyes and asked me blankly, “What is going on, Justin??”
I threw the mobile phone in front of him, said coldly, “Check by yourself, we got framed by someone
yesterday!"
After a while, Ben immediately threw the phone on the ground angrily. I hurriedly said, “Stop, that is my
mobile phone!"
But it was too late, the phone had been thrown to pieces.
I felt distressed and picked it up. It was a bad thing, nothing was right.
Ben apologized to me, “Justin, I am sorry that I was impulsive.”
I helplessly said, “Forget it. Find a way to solve it. Mayor Chang asked us to solve it in one day.”
The others had come over to ask what happened. Ben gave a simple explanation. These people
immediately began to scold. Someone shouted that we should destroy the headquarters of the website,
and some suggested that we should kidnap the family of the editor.
The more I listened, the more I got annoyed, and shouted, “Shut up!"
The house was suddenly quiet.
I asked Ben, “What do you say?"
Ben answered, “Nothing we can do but pay with money. Everyone does business for money?"
I thought so, so I began to look for the contact information of website chief editor on the Internet, soon I
found her name was Anna Mills, which was a woman's name.
But for now, whoever she was, getting her to remove the story as the first priority.
I immediately called her, and after a while a sweet woman's voice sounded, “Hello?'
I asked, “Are you Anna Mills?"
The voice on the other end of the phone immediately changed and she said coldly, "Who are you?
What do you want to do with Anna Mills?"
I asked again, “Are you Anna Mills?"
There was a snap and the phone hung up.
Damn it, unexpectedly her temper was worse than I?
I patiently called her again. She picked up after a long time. As soon as she answered the phone, she
scolded, “What is wrong with you? Why didn’t you say your name when I asked you? What do you
want?"
I suppressed my anger and asked again, “Are you Anna Mills?"
"Freak!” She hung up again.
I was really angry. A person published a piece of false news to deceive the public acted so rude!
I stood up and said, “I go to find that Anna Mills to have a talk."
Ben pulled me and asked, “Justin, what do you want to talk to her?"
I paused and said, "Tell her what happened and ask her to delete the story."
Ben chuckled and said, “I will go with you."
The two of us drove the car to find the headquarters building of this Sunshine Newspaper, which was
next to TV station. It seemed that Anna Mills was powerful.
We entered the building and went directly to the editor's office on the third floor. When we knocked on
the door, a familiar voice sounded from inside, "Come in!"
Ben and I opened the door and went in. I saw a woman in black professional clothes was lowering her
head and tapping on the keyboard. After raising her head, she was stunned and asked, "Who are
you?"
It was a girl of twenty-four or five, who was pretty with a high nose, thin lips and a pair of black-rimmed
glasses.
But she was bad and incredibly issued a text to slander us. I stood forward and asked ruthlessly, “Are
you Anna Mills?"
Anna Mills lifted up her glasses and looked at my eyes, suddenly enlightened, “I know who you are,
Justin Allen, the person in charge of DF Group. Did you call me this morning to harass me?"
I sneered and said, “Yes, I am Justin Allen, I did not harass you but ask you to that delete the news that Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
slander our company! Your behavior has caused great damage to the reputation of our company.
Delete it immediately and I'll sue you.”
Anna Mills showed me a disdainful look. She slightly raised her chin and said, “Are you frightening me?
Sue if you like. I will not yield to such evil forces as you!"
I was angry, shouting, “Who is the evil force? You did not find out the truth of the matter and you
published the false news. Do you think you are right?"
Anna Mills said coldly, “You know who the evil force is. Our company is dedicated to speak for the
common people, is to expose you these unconscious developers’ ugly side in front of the common
people!"
I was furious, where did this girl get sense of justice? Was she the Madonna? How dare she?!
When I was about to freak out, Ben pulled me, walked forward and said, “Well, No need to say those
high-minded words in front of us. How much do you want? 300 thousand? If it is not enough, I can give
you more! To be honest, I can open 10 websites like you, and then I will expose your private life every
day, do you believe it? Just think for your employees."
"What if they fall down on the ground or get hit by a car?"
Ben was good at threatening people.
Anna Mills’ facial expression changed. I felt pleased to see that: You deserved it and be fooled by Ben.
Just when I thought Anna Mills was about to give in, she suddenly stood up, pointed to the door and
shouted, "Get out of here! Dare you threaten me? Do you have laws in eyes? Do you think you are
great with that money? Bullshit!"
We were stunned. Damn it, this woman was arrogant!
Who gave her the courage to say so?
