"Mr. Rivers, are you joking?" Liam found it hard to believe.
Ethan chuckled. "You'll soon find out if I am." Then, he finished his breakfast and left.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBy noon, Stephen's office was already filled with officials who had previously worked with Ethan. Even the lieutenant governor, Zane, was present. He had his arms crossed, looking visibly angry. Anyone could tell it was best not to provoke him at the moment.
When the others saw Zane's mood, they beccurious.
"What's going on?" Noting everyone had arrived, Stephen said, "I know all of you have a good relationship with Ethan Rivers, but I have snews. Ethan has been arrested for embezzlement bribery." and Except for Zane and Liam, that announcement shocked everyone present.
"Ethan embezzled and took bribes?" "That can't be!" "Is there skind of mistake?" They had all seen Ethan's work over the years. He was always hands-on with everything. He was even the first to arrive at the disaster site after the recent earthquake in the northern region.
Seeing the shocked, confused, and disbelieving looks on everyone's faces, Stephen smiled triumphantly. That was exactly the reaction he wanted!
