Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire

Chapter 447

Chapter 447 Feeling Helpless

Winger rushed outside, and as he exited the Twister Bar, he witnessed the moment when Venom was hit by a car.

Venom, in his typical escape pattern, tried to jump out the window. He intended to land on the adjacent billboard, but this time, he miscalculated, fell, and was struck by a passing car.

He was sent flying a considerable distance, landing in a pool of blood.

Winger hurried over, seeing Venom lying there, and immediately called for an ambulance.

Once the ambulance arrived, they rushed the severely injured Venom to the hospital. Winger sent two of his associates to accompany him while he returned to the Twister Bar to assist the police in wrapping up the operation.

The raid was fruitful; several individuals involved in the drug trade were apprehended, and a total of more than 2.58 kilograms of narcotics were confiscated during the search of Venom’s office and the entire bar.

The operation was highly successful, and per the law, the authorities closed down the illegal Twister Bar. All individuals involved were taken into custody.

Although they couldn’t immediately obtain a confession from Venom, with the testimony of Tommy, the police could now publicly disclose the details of the case.

An official report from the police detailed that Jimmy Bloom was not involved in drug-related activities. He had three consecutive negative drug tests. Instead, it was his assistant who conducted the crimes for personal gain.

With the operation at the Twister Bar, the authorities confirmed that it was a plot by the drug dealer Venom, who wanted to implicate Jimmy, and his assistant, Tommy, was an accomplice.

The truth behind the case was finally revealed, and Jimmy was released without charges.

On the day of Jimmy’s release, numerous journalists and media outlets flocked to the police station for interviews.

The area outside the police station was swarmed, and everyone eagerly awaited Jimmy’s emergence, escorted by the police.

Everyone wanted to get first-hand information, and camera flashes lit up the surroundings, but Jimmy remained silent.

Representatives from Universal Entertainment arrived to take him away. The head of public relations announced before they left, “Dear members of the media, we will hold a press conference for Mr. Bloom later at Universal Entertainment. For more information, please follow our official website, and you are welcome to attend.”

Once Jimmy was escorted into an RV, he saw Remington and Cecelia inside.

Jimmy had been detained for over ten hours, and that period had been quite torturous for him. He couldn’t believe that his assistant had been behind this.

“Jimmy, it’s all over now,” Remington comforted him, patting his shoulder.

“Thank you, thank you for your help, Mr. Nelson. If it weren’t for you guys, I might still be in there.”

Jimmy looked at Cecelia, “I’m sorry, Ms. Cecelia, I’ve embarrassed you!”

Since joining Tangerine Entertainment, he had wanted to bring some glory to Cecelia. Unfortunately, the first premiere he attended resulted in a major scandal.

“This isn’t your fault. You’re also a victim in this. However, you should be more cautious in the future. Your trusting nature can lead to trouble.”

Cecelia teased him, recalling the first time she met Jimmy at Grande Club when he intentionally dropped his necklace, which she quickly recognized as a fake.

So, Jimmy’s character, carefree and open-hearted, was prone to being taken advantage of.

“Right, Ms. Cecelia, you’re right, but you could be a bit more gentle with your words! Give me a break!”

As the atmosphere lightened, Jimmy’s mood also relaxed.

As everyone discussed the dealings between Tommy and Venom, Cecelia raised her concerns, “Jimmy and Venom have never met before, and Jimmy has never been to that Twister Bar. Why would Venom try to frame Jimmy through Tommy? What’s his motive?”

Remington speculated, “Could it be as the police suggested, an attempt to implicate Jimmy? This kind of drug dealer would want to target someone wealthy to expand their operations.”

“I have a feeling that there might be some personal vendetta or grudge between him and Jimmy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done something like this out of the blue.”

“But I don’t know that Venom and we have no connection at all!”

Jimmy was unquestionably one of the most wronged individuals of this century.

Cecelia remained suspicious of Venom’s true motives, believing that it couldn’t be solely about doing business.

There were plenty of wealthy people to target for that purpose, so why go through the trouble of framing a celebrity?

“Venom’s true motives can only be known to Venom himself. We just have to wait for him to wake up, and the truth will come to light,” Remington said.

“That’s right. Keep an eye on him. When he wakes up, we’ll surely find out,” Cecelia agreed.

Following the advice of Cecelia and Remington, they all headed to Grande Club, where Jimmy could take a relaxing shower and enjoy a feast to relieve some of the stress.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

With the official police report clearing his name, the online blame started to shift from Jimmy to his assistant, Tommy, and Venom.

Tommy was labeled the most treacherous snake in the grass of the century. Jimmy had helped him, but he had betrayed him for the sake of money.

Venom received the harshest criticism; he had committed unforgivable acts, harming countless people and families. His eventual coma was seen by many as retribution.

While Jimmy was innocent, the incident still had a significant impact on his career, as the lost endorsements couldn’t be easily regained.

Luckily, his fans remained relatively level-headed. While some fans left, the majority continued to support him.

Scheduled announcements were delayed, and Cecelia advised Jimmy to take some time off, letting the heat of the controversy die down before helping him regain his previous stature.

Finally, Tuesday arrived, the official day of the new product launch.

The Tangerine Group chose the Center City Convention Center for their event, with the theme “Golden Years.” The staff responsible for the fashion show’s production arrived early and had already set up the stage.

Guests included various media representatives, fashion icons, and a few hot stars from Universal Entertainment who came to watch the fashion show and show their support for the Tangerine Group.

Morgan Fisher, the chief designer, was responsible for this show. He and the CEO of Weely, Cynthia, were busy backstage. All the models had gathered, and they were preparing with hair, and makeup, and getting into their outfits.

As the final preparations were underway backstage, just ten minutes before the show was about to start, Taylor Group unexpectedly started their new product presentation.

Some journalists received a tip about it and found that Taylor Group had also chosen the theme “Golden Years,” which was identical to Tangerine Group’s theme.

News spread rapidly, and some of the staff from Tangerine Group saw the information online, and they immediately informed Morgan.

Morgan had never imagined that his designs would be replicated by the Taylor Group. If their show went ahead as planned, the media would undoubtedly notice the striking similarity, leading to suspicions of plagiarism.

With just a few minutes left before the show was set to begin, Tangerine Group’s team was feeling completely overwhelmed. When Cynthia heard the news, she immediately contacted Cecelia.

“Cecelia, this is bad. Something terrible has happened! Taylor Group’s new product presentation uses the same design and theme as yours. They’ve started early, and it’s already in the news. What should we do now?”
