Chapter 217 - 217: 217: Dignity
“But…l really didn’t do it….” The worker argued anxiously.
But the female anchor didn’t care at all.
She didn’t care about the truth, as long as she controlled public opinion, even the false could become true!
What’s the sacrifice of a migrant laborer for the sake of the so-called live-stream effect?
“I’m telling you, lick my shoes now, or I’ll have you arrested!” the female web celebrity said arrogantly.
The worker’s face turned ugly, not knowing what to do.
“Will you lick it or not?” The female anchor seemed impatient.
She shouted at the live broadcast room, “Family, he doesn’t agree! Hey, I actually wanted to forgive him, but I have to give him some Lessons, or what if he does this again in the future?”
The netizens who didn’t know the truth in the live broadcast room immediately swiped the screen and said, “Hurry up and arrest him! This kind of person can’t be spoiled!”
The female web celebrity laughed coldly.
She looked at the worker and said, “I’ll give you one last chance, lick or not?”
The worker’s face turned pale, and he had his dignity, but when he thought of his child waiting for tuition fees at home, the worker deflated like a deflated ball.
The dignity of a middle-aged man crumbles under the pressure of family responsibilities.
He bent down and was ready to kneel when a hand grabbed his arm.
As he looked up, Ethan Smith’s cold eyes were locked on the female anchor in front of him.
“What are you doing?” The female anchor widened her eyes.
Ethan spoke coldly, “You kneel down.”
The female anchor looked at Ethan and sneered, “Who are you? I think you guys are a group, right? You want to take advantage of me, huh?”
Ethan couldn’t help but sneer, “Are you suffering from persecutory delusions?
Looking like a pig, who would want to take advantage of you?”
Anger flashed across the female anchor’s face, and she pointed at Ethan and said, “You wait for it!” Then, she shouted at her phone, “Family, look! Another thug is here! I suspect these two are together! I… ”
Before she finished speaking, Ethan broke her phone.
“You dare to break my phone?” The female anchor’s eyes widened.
“Kneel down and apologize to this worker,” Ethan said coldly.
“Kneel down for him? Is he even worthy? A stinky migrant worker, I… ”
Ethan didn’t want to hear her nonsense, so he reached out and pressed down on her shoulder.
Under this tremendous force, the female anchor knelt on the ground, unable to move!
“What’s going on here!”
At this point, a man hurriedly ran over from a short distance away.
Seeing this man, Ethan was surprised.
Because the man was none other than an old friend from his childhood!
“Francis Lee?!” A glimmer of surprise flickered in Ethan’s eyes.
Francis looked at Ethan and frowned slightly.
“Don’t you remember me? I’m Ethan Smith!” Ethan said anxiously.
Francis said coldly, “Ethan Smith, it’s working hours, so I’d appreciate it if you could call me Director Lee.”
Ethan’s face changed slightly.
“What the hell is going on?” Director Lee asked with a cold face.
“Director Lee, I’m the web celebrity you invited to promote! This stinky migrant worker tried to harass me, and this bastard even made me kneel down!” The female anchor complained first.
“I tell you, you must give me an explanation!” The female web celebrity snorted.
“It’s not like that. She’s bullying others with her power,” Ethan frowned and told Francis the whole story.
However, Francis said coldly, “Ethan, do you know who she is? She’s a top-tier web celebrity! She’s here to promote our resort! Who gave you permission to hit her? Apologize now!”
Hearing Francis’s words, Ethan’s face turned completely cold.
“Francis, did you not hear what I just said? It’s her…” “Don’t tell me useless things!” Francis interrupted Ethan.
“Ethan, someone at your level would never understand the stakes.”
“I don’t care about right or wrong, I only care about the value of interests! Do you understand!”
“Now, apologize to Yoyo immediately!”
Ethan laughed coldly.
He looked at his childhood friend and felt strangely distant.
“Francis, you really disappoint me,” Ethan shook his head.
Francis didn’t seem to want to bother with Ethan anymore.
He turned to the migrant worker and said with a cold face, “You’re fired!”
The worker’s face changed, and he hurriedly defended, “I didn’t even touch her.
She framed me… ”
“Enough!” Francis said impatiently.
A trace of loss flashed across the worker’s face. Contributed: Options Resolver He sighed and said softly, “I see.”
“Don’t worry, you won’t be fired,” Ethan patted him on the shoulder at this moment.
“Heh, Ethan, this isn’t up to you,” Francis sneered.
Ethan looked at Francis in front of him, suppressing his anger and said, “In the past, we had such a good relationship, I can give you a chance to take back your words, and I’ll pretend nothing happened.”
Upon hearing this, Francis couldn’t help but laugh, “Ethan, why are you so naive? Feelings of the past? Who remembers that?”
“Now I’m in charge of half of this construction site! Apart from Director Rhodes, I’m the most powerful here!”
“You give me a chance? Are you dreaming?”
Edward Green beside him clenched his fists and was about to step forward.
But Ethan stopped him.
“Alright, remember what you said,” Ethan nodded at Francis.
The female web celebrity shouted louder, “Asshole, getting ahead for others without the ability. What is this playing!”
Ethan didn’t bother with her, but his heart felt a bit sad.
He also came from the bottom, so he knew better how difficult life at the bottom was.
After leaving with Edward, Ethan went straight to Director Rhodes’s office.
After entering the office, Ethan told Neveah Rhodes his thoughts.
“Miss Rhodes, please fence off this villa area, I need to use it,” Ethan pointed at the blueprint and said.
Neveah Rhodes nodded hurriedly, “No problem! You’re my boss and idol. Your word is the law!”
Ethan smiled, “How long will it take?”
Neveah Rhodes thought for a moment and said, “Three days.”
“That’s too long,” Ethan frowned.
“Please speed up the progress,” Ethan said.
“All right, I’ll get back to you in two days!” Neveah Rhodes promised.
She immediately took out her phone and made a call.
“Francis, come to my office. I’ve got something for you to do,” Neveah Rhodes said.
Francis on the other end didn’t dare delay and hurried to Neveah Rhodes’s office.
As soon as he entered the office, Francis saw Ethan.
With a cold face, he said, “Ethan, what are you doing here? Get out, I’ll deal with you after work!”
