Kent found a scapegoat right from the start and took the initiative to take responsibility, promising to pay huge compensation to all the masters recruited. Then, under the encouragement of many whitewashing forces, he did recover a lot of losses for the Osmond family, at least on the surface, it seemed to be acceptable.
But how much effect it actually has is unknown, because those masters recruited by the Osmond family are not fools. They know very well that the butler alone cannot achieve this level. Ultimately, it is Bonny and Kent who are secretly doing things.
Therefore, Kent's move can only calm down the majority of the spectators who are unaware of the truth, and it is not of much help to the Osmond family.
But even so, it was pretty good. At least Kent felt that his position was saved.
So he felt a little relieved when he saw that no one present had any other comments. When he wanted to take the butler back, someone else suddenly came out.
"Mr. Kent, you said that the butler was the one who implanted the micro-explosive devices in the experts recruited by your Osmond family. We have nothing to say about that because it is an internal matter of your Osmond family. But regarding the following matter, I hope you can give me a positive answer."
Kent was very impatient because he had never seen this person before and didn't know where the other party came from. If there weren't so many people present and there was a live broadcast, he would not have paid any attention to such a small person.
It’s just that he had just admitted his mistake on behalf of the Osmond family. If he wanted to win a better reputation for the Osmond family at this time, he had to be approachable.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
The man waved his right hand, and immediately more than a dozen people were brought in. The one who brought them in was Chen Qiu!
Chen Qiu did not participate in this competition. On the one hand, it was because Shen Qi felt that there were not many masters on the Eagle Sauce Country side. On the other hand, he asked Chen Qiu to go to the Simon family and help Bessie capture all the people in the Simon family who wanted to join forces with the Osmond family, and send them to confront Kent at this time.
When Kent saw Chen Qiu, he suddenly had a bad premonition: something bad was going to happen!
Sure enough, the person who spoke just now immediately revealed his identity.
"Mr. Kent, I'm Evans, the assistant to Mr. Bessie, the head of the Simon family. The question I want to ask today is, why does your Osmond family want to interfere in the affairs of our Simon family?"
"Mr. Bessie has just ascended to the position of head of the family, and there are still many matters to deal with within the family. The Osmond family and the Simon family are of the same ancestry. We do not ask the Osmond family to lend a hand at this time, but you cannot interfere with the internal decision-making of our Simon family. Is that right?"
Kent hastily denied it. "When did our Osmond family ever interfere with the internal management of your Simon family? Don't slander us!"
Evans smiled and pointed at the people behind him. "These people can prove whether your Osmond family has interfered with the internal management of our Simon family! Mr. Kent, you don't forget them, do you? Just a few days ago, you personally promised them that as long as they openly opposed Mr. Bessie, you would let them leave the Simon family and join your Osmond family, and give them sufficient rewards. You won't forget it so quickly, right?"
"That's not true! Don't talk nonsense here!"
Kent was also anxious. "Our Osmond family has never done such a thing. Don't think you can throw dirty water on our family just by finding some random people! I know, this must be Bessie's plan. He did this on purpose to eliminate dissidents and consolidate his position!"
"It's normal for a young patriarch to want to quickly consolidate his position, and no one will say anything. But you shouldn't bring our Osmond family with you!"
Evans knew that Kent wouldn't admit it easily, so he said, "Mr. Kent, don't worry. We'll soon know whether we are framing the Osmond family. Mr. Nell, you are Mr. Bessie's uncle. Please come first and tell me what Mr. Kent promised you a few days ago."
Nell had already seen how powerful Shen Qiu was, and he didn't dare to resist at all. He could only follow Evans' instructions and tell him the promise Kent made to him when they met secretly a few days ago.
In addition to Neil, other people from the Smith family who had contact with Kent also stood up and stated that if Kent had not promised them a lot of benefits, they would not have betrayed the Smith family.
The more Kent listened, the angrier he got. When he made a promise to these people, they all agreed to cooperate with his actions and make the Smith family pay the price. He didn't expect that in just a few days, they all changed their minds and even dragged him out in public. Don't they know what the price of doing this will be?
Even if they could save their lives, by doing so, they would be offending both the Simon family and the Osmond family at the same time, and they would no longer have a place to stand in the entire Eagle Sauce Country!
After all, Kent has seen a lot of things and has long been prepared to deal with various situations. Of course, he will not give up easily.
"What a joke! What a joke! I've already said, Bessie did this on purpose to eliminate dissidents. I dare say that the families of those who came out to testify against me today must have been controlled by Bessie. If they don't follow Bessie's arrangements and slander our Osmond family, their families will definitely die!"
"Evans, don't you dare say that? These people's words alone can't possibly have any impact on our Osmond family. Go back and tell Bessie that he wants to use this opportunity to exclude dissidents and throw dirty water on our Osmond family. It's really ugly!"
After hearing what they said, many people present felt that what Kent said made some sense, because the people who testified against Kent were all from the Smith family, and didn't these people all obey Bessie's orders?
Evans sneered, "So, according to you, what these people say can't be trusted?"
"Of course, unless you have other evidence or other witnesses who can prove that it was me or someone else in the Osmond family who instigated them to confront Bessie, then don't even think about slandering our Osmond family! And I can tell you seriously, we in the Osmond family remember everything you did today. Once we're done with this, we'll definitely hold you accountable for what you did today!"
Evans shook his head. "There's a saying in the Xia Kingdom: 'Don't give up until you reach the Yellow River, and don't cry until you see the coffin.' That's exactly what's going on with you! Since you want evidence so badly, I'll give it to you. Mr. Nell, you go first."
Nell nodded, took out his phone and clicked on an audio clip, which contained a conversation between him and Kent. The content of the conversation was exactly that Kent instigated Nell to betray the Smith family and promised him various benefits!
