Jessica agreed so simply and without thinking, probably because she was really poor. Richard was stunned for a while before he realized that he hadn't even had time to make an offer.
So this girl isn't afraid that he will charge an astronomical sum that she can't even afford, and she won't be able to pay it back even if she sells herself?
But she was lucky. Richard said that he was a good person and would never do such a thing. If he said it would be cheaper, it would be cheaper. After all, girls are so poor that they live in offices. If he continues to exploit them,
Not good......
A reporter who had been watching silently in his seat next to him whispered in his partner's ear: "What a show, the boss. I wanted Jessica's contact information last week but I haven't gotten it until now. As a result, the boss suddenly
After taking action, they actually lived together directly..."
Before he finished speaking, the little reporter felt a cold light hit him, and chills ran through his bones. He shivered all over, and subconsciously raised his head, he saw his boss looking at him with a weird smile on his lips, his eyes reminiscent of failing an exam.
Ask your teacher to chat.
"Vic, is it that the report on shipyard layoffs that you were responsible for hasn't been written yet?" he asked with a smile.
The young reporter trembled all over: "Come on... come on, boss, he is already writing."
"Oh." Richard sneered, "Then before I get off work, I want to see the first draft, send it to my office, and I will check it myself."
The little reporter was crying, but he didn't dare to say "no".
It's true that misfortune comes from the mouth.
Richard sneered. You dare to gossip about your boss behind his back. Don’t you know that your boss has a sharp ear?
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Richard was sitting in his office, flipping through last month's financial statements and frowning, when three uniformed policemen came to his office.
After the two police officers came in, they stood behind and the middle-aged police officer came up to shake hands and say hello. Richard had also met this police officer. His name was George Stacey, and he was from the New York Police Department.
Commissioner, Richard met him at a banquet. However, compared to the Commissioner of the New York Police Department, his identity that interests most people more is that he is the father of future Spider-Man’s girlfriend Gwen Stacy.
"Director Stacey." Richard shook hands with him, then turned to ask the secretary to pour water for Mr. Director, and then continued to ask, "Is there anything I can do to help?"
"It's for a case." Director Stacey sat down and said, "A few days ago, the Green Snake Gang in Hell's Kitchen was killed by someone. It was a massacre, Mr. Li, their entire stronghold.
They were all turned upside down, and they were so bloody that it was difficult to look directly at them. Although I have been with the New York City authorities for a long time, I have to say that such things are not common..."
Richard understood that it turned out to be this. It was reasonable for the police to come to him for questioning. After all, the conflict between their Planet Daily and the Green Snake Gang was not a secret and was witnessed by everyone. The gangsters had just been there the day before.
He came to them to make trouble, but they were exterminated at noon the next day. From the police standpoint, Richard couldn't help but be suspicious.
But this time, Richard said it was really not him who did it...
Although he did use his special abilities to solve a lot of troubles for his family, he was very careful every time and never made any mistakes. On the contrary, this time the incident had nothing to do with him but the police came to his door.
"Oh, that thing was quite scary." Richard nodded, "But everything I know has been published in the newspapers a few days ago. I don't see what else needs to be added."
George Stacey did not mince words and said straight to the point: "This is the case. There is reliable information that earlier that day, a member of the Green Snake Gang, 'Viper', brought people to your newspaper to intimidate and threaten you.
That night, their leader 'Viper' also personally went to your restaurant to have some conflicts. So..."
"So you want to ask me if I have anything to do with that massacre?"
Director Stacey said nothing, but clearly acquiesced.
Not only gangsters like Kingpin saw that the Daily Planet was not easy to mess with, but many people also saw that the newspaper was in deep water, including the New York Police Department. Now if someone told Director Stacey the newspaper boss
Richard Lee actually knows kung fu. He climbed over walls and broke into the Green Snake Gang's stronghold at night, and defeated them all with his bare hands. He believed it.
Richard rubbed his nose: "If you think I am a potential suspect, you can just cross me off the list, because I was too busy to kill people in those days. There are people in this whole building.
It all proves that I haven't left even half a step. If I remember correctly, the day of the incident was Wednesday, right? Stephanie, tell Mr. Director what I was doing at noon on Wednesday?"
"You took a nap for an hour after lunch, and when you got up, you asked me to bring you cheesecake and donuts for dessert." Stephanie said gently.
Richard's expression changed slightly: "Well... if it's later, what will I do after that?"
"Have afternoon tea."
"After that, skip the eating part." Richard felt a little embarrassed on his face. Why is this girl so ignorant? Why does she sound like I only sleep and eat when I go to work? Leave it to outsiders.
How bad are wrong impressions?
"Later you were watching the show "The Big Bang Theory."" Stephanie continued with a smile.
Richard said with a dark face: "You're fired."
"Oh." Stephanie didn't take it seriously, smiled, and exited the office, "Then call me when you need me."
She knew that her boss was like this sometimes. From time to time he would say that he would fire her, but in fact he was reluctant to fire her.
"Well, from a personal point of view, I really want to believe that you have nothing to do with this matter, Mr. Li." Director Stacey said, "I am also a reader of Planet Daily, and I have also read your article.
You know, as the chief of the New York Police Department, sometimes I have to come into contact with some parts of this city that ordinary people cannot see. And reading your newspaper, I can clearly feel the difference between you and other media."
He sighed and said: "I know how rare it is to be able to insist on speaking for truth and justice in such a generation and in such a background. So I have always felt that we should be on the same front. I want to believe that
The Daily Planet indeed has nothing to do with the Green Snake Gang, but I still have something to remind you, Mr. Li."
"Please say."
"People like you and me, we should pay more attention to the bottom line." Director Stacey said seriously, "That is a line that none of us should cross - even if it is for the right purpose."
