Chapter 280: You Might Not Know Jasper Shaw, But You Must Know Kane Shaw
Chloe Sinclair’s live broadcast debunking the Miller Laboratory quickly went viral internationally, spread by netizens and the media. Within a single hour, it had been translated into numerous languages.
The evidence Chloe Sinclair presented was undeniable. Besides, a simple online search was all it took to learn about Miller’s company.
It didn’t take long for investors and researchers to catch on. They swarmed to cancel their orders and, at the same time, took to the internet to trash the company.
More importantly, the name Chloe Sinclair, a name from Zenthia, quickly became known across the globe.
Even foreigners who paid no attention to academia became infatuated with her looks the moment they saw Chloe Sinclair’s classic East Asian features.
[Oh, my God, how can someone so adorable exist in this world?]
[She’s from Zenthia? I always thought Zenthia was poor and dirty, but this girl completely changed my mind.]
[Guys, I just checked her out on Weibo. This beautiful girl is nineteen, which means she’s old enough to get married.]
[Oh, God, I’d love to get it on with her.]
[To the guy above, please don’t fantasize about an angel with your perverted mind. You’re not worthy.]
Chloe Sinclair had officially made a name for herself.
But things weren’t going so well for Miller’s laboratory.
In less than a day, every single one of their clients had canceled their orders. Worse, they were also demanding compensation.
Naturally, Miller refused.
Even though it was a scam, they still had to produce something to show for it. Their team had spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the device alone, which was convincing enough to pass for the real thing.
Now, not only had they failed to earn a single cent, but they were also facing lawsuits from a bunch of "muggles."
Miller was surprised when the story broke, but he quickly composed himself.
"A Zenthian?"
Miller watched the unfamiliar, stunningly beautiful face on the screen. A sinister smile spread across his lips.
"Boss, what do we do now?"
West had been with Miller for years, and this was the first time something had blown up in their faces. His expression was one of pure panic.
"The police must be on their way. Should we make a run for it?"
West spat. "That damn Zenthian woman... why is she so much trouble? Why’d she have to come after us? If I ever get my hands on her, I’ll kill her..."
Winters shot a glance at Miller.
Miller’s expression was neutral, but his green eyes were fixed on him, unblinking, like a ravenous wolf.
"She’s not someone you can touch."
Miller’s voice was bone-chilling. He pointed to the video. "This man... he’s someone we can’t afford to cross."
The man Miller was pointing at was none other than Jasper Shaw.
Winters didn’t recognize him. Seeing an Asian man, his gaze filled with disdain.
"Miller, since when are you so cowardly? He’s just some entrepreneur from Zenthia. What’s there to be afraid of?"
"What am I afraid of?"
Miller suddenly sneered. "Do you have any idea who that is?"
West’s smile froze on his face.
His gaze fell on Jasper Shaw in the video, who was staring intently at the stage.
He knew that if Miller was making such a big deal about this man, he couldn’t be just anyone.
But the thought of being questioned twice in a row today irritated him.
So, he forced himself to press on. "He’s just an Asian entrepreneur. How powerful can he be?"
"Heh." Miller laughed mockingly, his green eyes full of disdain and ridicule as he looked at Winters.
"He owns the most laboratories in the world. He’s also the chairman of the Shaw Group and holds the majority of its shares. His grandfather is the leading figure in Zenthia’s quantum communication technology. You might not know Jasper Shaw, but you must have heard of Kane Shaw, right?"
The color instantly drained from West’s face, and his body swayed as if it would collapse.
