Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 129 Marilyn

Judson suddenly clenched his fists.

Taking a deep breath, he said steadily, "Why should I do what you say?"

"Well, why not?" Annabel smiled knowingly.She had already expected such a reaction from Judson.

"Ha-ha..." Judson chuckled awkwardly.

"This so-called recording doesn't mean anything!"

"Is that so? If it doesn't mean anything, why won't you let us do a simple voiceprint recognition test? If the voice in the recording is not yours, why should you be worried?" Annabel mocked.

"Is it because you know that you're guilty?"

Faced with a series of damning questions from Annabel, Judson didn't answer her.

"What you're saying is pure slander! As the person in charge of Benton Group's branch in France, why would I do such a thing? How on earth would I benefit from tampering with the raw materials? Why would I plant a bomb in the warehouse?"

"Good question.As the person in charge of the Benton Group's French branch, why would you do such a thing?" Annabel frowned.

"You did it for—"

At this moment, a magnetic male voice boomed from afar, which overlapped with Annabel's voice.

"You did it for Marilyn! You did it for Love Jewelry!"

Annabel looked in the direction of the voice in surprise.

Standing by the door was a familiar figure.

Seeing him here, she felt relieved.

It was Rupert! He was finally here! To everyone's surprise, Rupert strode inside the conference room.He exuded a domineering aura as he walked, making those around him feel small and insignificant.

"Rupert Benton's here!" someone shouted in shock.

"Isn't he supposed to be in a coma? Why is he here?"

"Oh, my God! It's really Mr.Benton! He's fine!"

All of a sudden, the crowd burst into an uproar, and everyone stared at Rupert in utter disbelief.

Suddenly, a thought occurred to someone in the crowd.

What did Rupert mean by saying that? "Marilyn? Love Jewelry? She plagiarized Benton Group's design, didn't she?"

"But what does Judson have to do with Love Jewelry?"

"Is Love Jewelry behind this?"

Everyone looked to Rupert for answers.

What was the truth behind the scandal surrounding the Ice and Fire collection? As Rupert walked through the crowd, the people automatically made way for him.

With steady steps, he didn't stop until he was by Annabel's side.He turned his head to look at Annabel.

In a soft voice, he said, "I'm here, Annabel."

Annabel gave him a small smile.

There seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two.

As for Judson, he was staring at Rupert in disbelief.

Wasn't Rupert supposed to be in a coma from being knocked out in the explosion? Why was he here, safe and sound?

"What're you doing here?" Judson exclaimed.

"Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital?"

"It sounds like you don't want to see me."

Raising his eyebrows, Rupert cast a cold glance at Judson.

"Judson, there's a short video I want to show you.Would you like to watch it?"

"Video? What video?"

All the color drained from Judson’s face.

Things were not going according to plan at all.

Never in his wildest dreams would he have expected that Rupert would wake up from his coma.

Looking at Rupert, the truth suddenly dawned on Judson.

Did Rupert just pretend to be in a coma? By pretending to be incapacitated, Rupert made him relax his vigilance.

All the while, Rupert and Annabel were secretly collecting evidence against him.

Now, they were about to turn the tables in today's press conference! It was all a trap, and Judson had fallen for it.

As reality dawned on him, Judson broke out in cold sweat.

He had severely underestimated his opponents! They fooled him! Rupert nodded to Finley, who then pressed a button on the remote control.

The next second, a video started to play on the big screen in the conference room.

The setting of the video seemed to be in some fancy hotel.

A man and a woman were lying in a bed in the center of the room.

The man was undoubtedly Judson, while the woman was none other than Marilyn, the chief designer of Love Jewelry.

The two of them were cuddling in bed.

After a while, Marilyn asked, "Honey, do you love me?"

"Of course." Judson’s eyes were glazed over with lust.

"Why don't you prove it?" Marilyn pouted, wrapping her arms around Judson's neck.

"How? I'll do anything for you!"

"Really? Are you willing to do anything for me?" Marilyn asked in a low, sensual tone.

"Yes!" Judson squeezed Marilyn's ass.

"I'll do anything as long as you are willing to marry me."

"Okay, I'll marry you on one condition."

Suddenly, Marilyn's eyes turned cold.

"Do you know about the plagiarism thing?"

Judson was stunned for a moment.

"You mean Ice and Fire?" Marilyn nodded.

"Yes! That bitch, Annabel, humiliated me! Everything I worked for—my hard-earned career and reputation— was ruined because of her! She and Rupert have to pay!"

Marilyn's anger flared up at the thought of how she went from famous designer to plagiarist in the blink of an eye.

Things wouldn't have turned out like this if it weren't for Annabel and Rupert.

She had to take revenge! She wanted Annabel and Rupert to get a taste of their own medicine and more.She wanted to destroy them! Judson fell silent for a moment.

Then, he made up his mind and said firmly, "Marilyn, I love you.Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

A hint of viciousness flashed through Marilyn's eyes as she said, "Annabel's Ice and Fire project—it has to fail! Her reputation has to be destroyed!"

"Oh, that? A piece of cake!"

Judson pulled Marilyn close.

"I'll make sure the Ice and Fire jewelry will have a fatal flaw.At that time, Annabel and Rupert will be in big trouble!" NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"Honey, as long as you destroy the both of them, I promise I'll marry you!"

Marilyn climbed on top of Judson and started kissing him.

What happened next was strictly rated R.

Seeing this, Finley immediately picked up the remote control and turned off the video.

Rupert then turned his icy cold gaze to Judson.

"So, how do you explain that video?"
