Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 498

Melanie's arrogance deeply infuriated Penny and her team.

Suddenly, Nathan spoke, "200 million, huh? What a daredevil you are to ask for such an unreasonable price! You don't even worth it with this rude attitude of yours!"

"Since you refuse to negotiate with us, then I shall not waste my time further. I want you to stop spreading malicious rumors regarding our company by 7 pm tonight. Other than that, I want you to make a public apology. Otherwise, don't ever think of being an actress again!”

Melanie and Hugo couldn't help but gasp over his boastful words. What a huge boast he is! How dare he threaten Melanie to not be an actress! Who does he think he is for saying such boastful words?

Hugo let out a cold chuckle. "Hey, lad. Mind your words. You're going to chew your own tongue for making such unrealistic boasts."

Melanie's rage flared further. "Who do you think you are to make me apologize publicly? It's fools like you who keep inviting me to dinners and do all sorts of stupid endorsements, yet you refuse to pay the price for it. And when you're not happy with me, you come and complain about me. Isn't this despicable of you?" she scolded rudely.

Penny couldn't help but shake her head.Luckily, I didn't make her our brand ambassador, otherwise our company's image will be ruined.

Penny was afraid that Nathan would be triggered and resort to brute force again, hence she tugged on Nathan's arm.

"Hubby, we should leave now. Since they refuse to negotiate with us, then we have to resort to legal means now."

With that, Nathan and Penny left Wisteria Entertainment.

Melanie was still scolding away as they left.

Hugo passed her a cup of coffee and smiled bitterly. "Ms. Zane, there's no need to lose your temper over them. Who knows, there may be reporters among them and they'll ruin your name!"

Melanie snorted. "Geez, I hate reporters the most! They always like to write stories instead of the truth. But I have a fanbase of 100 million people. If any reporter dares to write bad about me, I'm going to let my fans mince him to death!”

He then nodded in agreement. "Alright. Then I shall instigate the fanbase to increase their efforts in bringing down Cross Group's reputation and force Penny to comply with our conditions."

That night, all social media and news outlets exploded with malicious rumors about the Hope liver cancer vaccine.

In fact, there were some people who wore a lab coat and pretended to be a renowned doctor and specialist in immunology,

claiming that the liver cancer vaccine would cause severe side effects to those who got vaccinated. One of the most severe side effects would be infertility to both male and female receivers of the injection.

Within a night, the Hope vaccine was now the center of the discussion by the netizens and many questions were raised regarding the vaccine.

Because of that, the stock price of Cross Group had dropped by 7%, and 7 thousand million worth of assets evaporated within a day.
