Chapter 290: Dead Silence All Around
Oh, my!
What is Talia Tully doing?!
Adrian Lancaster turned around, his gaze coldly fixed on Rachel Sherman, scaring her with just a glance.
Uneasily seated, she nervously met the man’s eyes, watching him step by step walk towards her, trying hard to gather her thoughts.
The entire café seemed to chill, even the atmosphere felt frozen.
Since Adrian Lancaster chose to walk towards her, he was willing to accept this interview, Rachel surmised, secretly taking a deep breath.
Watching the man sit down opposite her, his presence exuded a powerful sense of oppression.
"Good day, Mr. Lancaster." At this moment, Rachel felt somewhat overwhelmed.
Sensing Rachel’s nervousness and fear, Adrian Lancaster’s expression softened a bit, "It’s not your fault. You just found out about this, right?"
"Yes, I just found out, but could you... not blame Faye?"
Rachel suddenly felt a heavy mental burden!
She said, "Faye just wanted to help me stabilize my job and quickly secure custody of June."
"Let’s begin." Adrian Lancaster gently interrupted, glancing at his watch, "I’ll give you half an hour. I’ll deal with matters between my wife and me at home, no need for you to plead on her behalf."
"..." Rachel knew her words held little weight, so she quickly entered her reporter’s mindset.
She nodded, glanced at the camera set up not far away, and pressed the Bluetooth remote in her hand to start recording.
"Focus on the story of Prestige Group, listen to the voice of the President. Today, we will meet Adrian Lancaster, President of Prestige Group."
"I’m sure everyone is quite familiar with President Lancaster..." Then, Rachel briefly introduced the developments and achievements of Prestige Group in recent years.
Next were some questions about the group, President Lancaster’s corporate thinking, future plans, what books he liked to read as a child, his self-requirements, and how he maintains discipline...
Adrian Lancaster came unprepared, as this was not a regular interview. He didn’t know what Rachel would ask.
Yet, even with such impromptu responses, he remained confident, methodical, his thoughts clear.
Gradually, Rachel overcame her inner nervousness, continuing to ask questions based on her prepared materials, until only two questions remained.
Two questions about feelings, which instantly made Rachel feel immense pressure!
"Is there any more questions?" Adrian Lancaster didn’t want to pressure her, asking gently as he recalled the day she was hit by Dylan Shaw, still feeling a bit compassionate.
Rachel nodded, looking down at the materials in her hand, gathering the courage to ask him, "President Lancaster, is the ’One Moment Eternity’ jewelry series related to Mrs. Lancaster? Did you decide a lifetime together when you first met?"
A topic unrelated to company finance!
So unexpected, something flickered in Adrian Lancaster’s deep eyes, his expression showed displeasure.
The camera was still recording.
Rachel looked at him, feeling extremely nervous, "..." waiting for his answer.
There was a dead silence all around!
"No." Adrian Lancaster answered calmly, "It’s not related to Faye Turner, and today I don’t wish to answer any questions about relationships. I hope Reporter Sherman can understand." His voice was not loud, yet it carried great potency.
No?
Rachel’s heart thudded heavily! Inevitably, she started overthinking, then who is it related to? An ex-girlfriend?
"President Lancaster, the last question..."
"I won’t answer anything related to private affairs, Miss Sherman, think carefully before asking." Adrian Lancaster softly interrupted her before she could finish, and Rachel did not intend to insist. Seeing him today and interviewing him was already fortunate.
But what about the editor? How would she report back?
