Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby

Chapter 470 Kelly Faces the Crowd

At the construction site.

Finished

Kelly followed Hanson onto the scene. The police were there maintaining order, but the families of the victims were still very emotional.

With such a major incident, even if it was man-made, the Gray Group couldn't avoid responsibility.

"With something this serious happening, where is your Lockhart Group's leader? Did he die? Bring him out here! What kind of company are you running? We demand to see your leader!"

"This situation needs an explanation!"

Among the troublemakers, some were shouting to see the head of the company.

Normally, during a crisis like this, a PR representative could handle the situation, and Kelly didn't need to step in.

But if Kelly didn't take charge, it would be difficult to calm the situation.

Each family of the deceased was deeply emotional, and every worker was someone working hard to support their family.

“This is a criminal case. The police have gathered evidence, and our security footage shows that this was intentional" the crisis PR team tried to explain.

"Who do you think you are? Stop with the nonsense! This happened on your Lockhart Group's construction site! You failed in your responsibility! No matter the killer's motive, our family died on your site. Your leader must come out and bear the consequences!"

They were insistent that Kelly appear in person.

The families were incredibly agitated.

Kelly knew someone was intentionally provoking the situation, trying to get her to step in and then take advantage of the situation to attack her.

However, if she didn't show up today, Lockhart Group would face severe consequences and instability, potentially shaking its foundation.

"I am the head of Lockhart Group, my name is Kelly Yeager. I fully understand how you're feeling-this is not what we wanted to see. As the person in charge, I admit that Lockhart Group holds undeniable responsibility, but we are both victims in this situation. The real culprit cannot be allowed to escape justice..." Kelly stepped forward, standing above the crowd to address them. "Don't worry, Lockhart Group will take full responsibility for what we should bear. We will cooperate fully with the police to catch the real

The families turned to look at Kelly, and among the crowd, someone deliberately provoked the...uation. "Are you the head of Lockhart Group? How do you plan to take responsibility? People are dead-how will you take responsibility? Why don't you just die instead?"

Someone led the charge, pushing forward to stir up chaos.

The police and security couldn't stop them, and the scene quickly descended into chaos.

Hanson moved quickly to protect Kelly, panicking as he urged, "Ms. Yeager, please get to the car

Kelly took in the scene, knowing these people were deliberately trying to escalate things.

Struggling to catch her breath, Kelly grabbed the loudspeaker beside her. "Everyone, don't act impulsively. Don't let anyone manipulate you. I'm pregnant. If you rush over and something happens to me or my child, not only will you fail to resolve anything, but you could also face criminal charges!"

As the crowd moved closer, Kelly pointed to the cameras high above. "There are cameras here, and the police are present. If you keep causing chaos, you'll be breaking the law! I understand the pain of losing loved ones, but let's calm down and have a proper conversation, okay?"

Sweat began to form on Kelly's forehead, and the shoving from the crowd made it difficult for her to keep her balance.

Hanson and the bodyguards stood firm, protecting Kelly and keeping her safely in the middle.

Some people deliberately shoved the bodyguards, trying to harm Kelly.

Most of the crowd had been pushed forward by others, but a few troublemakers were intentionally causing chaos.

"That person! And that one!"

From above, a police officer shouted, "You there! Don't move! Stay right there! Catch those troublemakers!"

The officer pointed at the troublemakers in the crowd.

Before arriving, Kelly had spoken with the police captain over the phone. If the crowd became unruly, they needed to arrest a few key individuals to calm things down.

A few police officers rushed into the crowd, pinning several troublemakers to the ground and cuffing them.

"What are you causing a scene for? Solve the problem calmly! If you break the law, I'll arrest you on the spot!" one officer shouted angrily.

As the troublemakers were taken away, the real family members fell silent, quietly stepping back.

Sensing the shift, the rest of the crowd slowly began to retreat.

Kelly breathed a sigh of relief, and Hanson, along with the bodyguards, also relaxed.

Kelly spoke again, "Please send one representative from each family to join me at a nearby hotel to discuss a solution. The rest of the family members will follow our team leaders, who will arrange hotel rooms for you to rest. Let's all calm down and work together to resolve this. We will fully cooperate with the police to catch the killer as soon as possible. Does that sound good?"

Hearing Kelly's words, the family members had no objections.

"Alright, we'll go with you to the hotel," one of them said.

Kelly nodded and turned to Hanson. "You personally lead the PR team to take care of the families. There can't be any more mistakes. Don't trust anyone too easily. You need to keep a close eye on everyone."

Hanson nodded but still looked concerned. "Ms. Yeager, you ...

"Don't worry about me," Kelly reassured him. "The bodyguards with me are all from Gary. They're trustworthy." She met his gaze. "Make sure the familles stay calm"

Finished

Hanson nodded firmly and then turned to lead the PR team and the family members to a nearby hotel owned by Lockhart Group.

The situation with the family members had been temporarily resolved, and it was already nearly 11:30 p.m.

Kelly hadn't eaten since she got up that morning, only drinking some water. Now, her blood sugar was so low that she could barely stand.

"Ms. Yeager, you should cat something." Hanson was still busy, so a young assistant came in and brought her some food.

Kelly's hands were shaking from low blood sugar as she reached for a small cake. Just as she was about to take a bite, a bodyguard stopped her.

"Ms. Yeager, please hang in there a bit longer. Our team is on their way with your food," the bodyguard said, his gaze focused cautiously on the young assistant.

Their job was to ensure Kelly's safety, which meant taking a highly protective, almost military approach. They couldn't afford to miss any potential risks. Kelly nodded and set the cake aside.

The assistant frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied. She reached for Kelly's cup. "Ms. Yeager, let me pour you -some water."

Kelly looked at the young assistant with suspicion. She had made it clear that no

one needed to worry about her and that they should focus on calming the families,

yet this assistant had been overly attentive from the

start.noveldrama

She nodded and let the assistant take the cup.

Once the assistant left, Kelly spoke in a low voiće, "Have someone monitor her, collect evidence, and hand it over to the police."

The bodyguard nodded and gestured for his team to follow the assistant. "Food's here!" Floyd, the bodyguard who protected Ken, walked in with the meal. They were all part of Gary's team.

"Ms. Yeager, Mr. Morris asked me to tell you that Beau has confessed everything, and the current evidence is enough to arrest Patrick. He wants you to not worry; Patrick will definitely be caught," Floyd reassured Kelly.

Kelly nodded. "Has Patrick escaped?/Any updates?"

Has he still not been caught?

Someone like Patrick wouldn't leave any room for mistakes. From the moment he knew Cecil had gone after the child, he must have been planning his escape Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone so far as to kill his wife.

He was getting anxious. He wanted to eliminate all potential threats before leaving Scaville. As his wife of over 30 years, she knew him better than anyone-that made her the most dangerous factor.

"We haven't caught him yet, but the port's been sealed off. He shouldn't be able to get away," Floyd said, scratching his head with uncertainty.

Patrick was clever. His ability to get this far proved just how capable he was, and with moles within the organization, a leak of the arrest plan could help his escape.
