Chapter 2044
Jasper's eyes turned cold. Just as he was about to call the director of Solana Daily, Javier's call cin. He sensed trouble andwanted to avoid Alyssa while answering. Yet he feared she'd think he was hiding something, so he reluctantly turned and pickedup the phone. His voice was barely above a whisper.
"Yes, Dad?" "Did you order the release of that news about the human drug experimentation on Solana Daily's official Twitter?"Javier's tone was stern.
"Yes." "I've already issued orders to take it down. As for the hashtag, even if we don't remove it, someone else will!" Jasperfrowned, and a vein throbbed on his forehead. "No, it can't be removed." Alyssa glanced at him with a poker face.
"It's not that | want to remove it; it's an order from above. First of all, this news is suspected to be fake news. It wasn't confirmedby the official source before being released.
"This has already caused a lot of pressure on the higher-ups. People are scared! If we don't handle it, trouble will find its way toBeckett Group!" Compared to his usual outbursts at Jasper, Javier seemed much calmer this tas he analyzed the pros and conswith Jasper. "Firstly, this isn't unverified news. The video is real, and using living people for experiments is a fact. The police havebeen secretly investigating the source of this banned drug. If the media remains silent at this time, when else should they speakout?" Jasper's voice, seared by indignation, bechoarse. "If the media chooses silence, it will only lead to more people beingharmed and led astray! Covering up the truth is the most foolish choice!" Alyssa's long lashes fluttered. Her chest moved with herbreathing rhythm.
There was silence on the other end of the line for a while.
After stime, Javier spoke earnestly, "Jasper, I'm not a heartless man. When | was young, | had the passion to charge forward formy career. I'm also enthusiastic about charity work and want to do something for society.
“But the premise is that | must first protect the Beckett Group and my family. Before | am a philanthropist or a social activist, |must first be a businessman who seeks profit and avoids harm. | must prioritize the interests of my family." Jasper's lips tightenedinto a line. His eyes flashed with a hint of obscurity.
"This news has stirred up social unrest, and it will also stir up the Beckett Group. We cannot afford to be at odds with higherauthorities It's not wise. In such sensitive times, we should understand the principle of going with the flow." "Dad, is thissomething you wanted to say topersonally, or did someone else say something to you?" Jasper was keenly aware of Javier'sunusual tone.
He knew Javier too well. He wasn't that broad-minded.
Having been in the world of fand fortune his whole life, how could he have such a detached and indifferent temperament? Javierpaused for a moment, then sighed. "Justin calledafter the incident. Jasper, he didn't mean anything else. He just hopes that theBeckett Group won't fall into chaos." "So it was Justin." Jasper felt suffocated. His gaze shifted to the woman beside him.
Alyssa's eyes darkened. She pressed a paper cup against her crimson lips as if drinking water but didn't take a sip.
