Chapter 128: Phone Recording

"Of course," Jones" gaze flickered with a hint of provocation towardsJane. Then, his expression darkened, and he declared withdetermination, “I should have concluded today's press conference afterPansy Group's public clarification. However, I don't want to bury myconscience, so I choose to reveal the truth today.”

"Conscience? I think your conscience was eaten by a dog," Jane's lipscurled into a sarcastic smile.

Seeing Jane's response, reporters surrounded her, bombarding herwith questions.

"Miss Jane, is what Mr. Jones said true?"

"Did Pansy Group really choose to use inferior materials for profit,leading to consumer poisoning?”

"Are those two so-called warehouse managers really scapegoats?""After the situation escalated, did Pansy Group orchestrate thisexplosion incident themselves?"

Jane smiled calmly and confidently responded, "Of course not. Everyword Jones said is false, fabricated to intentionally slander PansyGroup."

"What evidence do you have to prove that Jones is lying?" a reporteraimed the microphone at Jane. "Why would he do this? What benefitdoes he gain?"

Jane sneered, "If, as Jones claims, the explosion was premeditated byPansy Group, then why would Patrick and I be injured in theexplosion?"

She rolled up her sleeve, revealing a prominent dark red wound on herfair and delicate skin.

Her stern gaze fixed on Jones, "If Patrick and I knew about theexplosion in advance, how could we have coincidentally gone toWarehouse 1 at the time of the explosion? Now, Patrick is lyingunconscious in the hospital, risking his life as a joke?"

Upon hearing Jane's words, people began to murmur amongthemselves.

Indeed, the news from the hospital confirmed that Patrick was severelyinjured in the explosion, and he had been in a coma for days, possiblybecoming a vegetable.

A cold glint flashed in Jones’ eyes. “This is your feigned strategy, but anaccident happened, and Patrick got injured.”

"An accident? I say it's intentional!” Jane's expression turnedcompletely cold, lips tinged with mockery.

"The explosion that day was quite coincidental, happening neither tooearly nor too late, precisely when Patrick and I went to the warehouse.Meanwhile, you, Jones, just a moment before the explosion, received aphone call and walked away, completely unharmed!"

"What do you mean by saying that?" Jones furrowed his brows.

Jane stared at him coldly, "My point is, Jones, you are the mastermindbehind the explosion! You are the one responsible for the radioactivematerials in “Ice and Fire'!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Jones retorted coldly. "Just because I spokethe truth, Miss North, you're panicking and trying to shift everythingonto me?"

"Perhaps the one panicking is you," Jane said with a faint smile. "Youintentionally mixed radioactive elements into the raw materials, causingsome “Ice and Fire’ products produced in France to contain radioactiveelements and poison consumers. Then, you deliberately led Patrick andme to Warehouse 1, planted a bomb there, and that phone call wasactually directing someone to detonate the bomb! You carefully set upthis trap, but why?"

"Miss North's story sounds so touching, too bad it's all your fabrication,”Jones waved his hand, addressing the reporters. "Don't believe herone-sided words."

Jane's lips curled into a cold smile. "Whether it's a story or not will soonbecome clear.”

Jane involuntarily glanced towards the entrance of the conference hall.She narrowed her eyes slightly. Why hasn't Patrick arrived yet?

In theory, Morton should have obtained the evidence by now.Considering the time, Patrick should be almost here.

Nothing unexpected happened, right?

There was no choice; she could only use what Anthony sent her to buysome time.

Regaining her focus, Jane cleared her throat, her gaze sharp on Jones."Jones, I have a phone conversation recording here. Would you like tolisten?"

Upon hearing this, Jones couldn't help but be taken aback. "Whatrecording?"

Jane waved her phone, a cold gleam in her beautiful eyes. "You'll knowwhen you listen."

In front of everyone, Jane found the file Anthony sent her, placed thephone near the microphone, and pressed play.

Soon, the phone played the conversation between two individuals."Hey, is everything ready?" This voice was Jones'.

Another woman's voice echoed, "Ready, can detonate at any time.""Very well." Jones’ tone carried a hint of malice. "Detonate the bomb inone minute."

“No problem!" The woman's voice sounded again.

Then came a series of urgent footsteps, presumably Jones running to asafe place.

One minute later, the woman asked, "Can we detonate now?"

"OK!"

Afterward, there was a loud bang. Even though it was just heardthrough the recording on the phone, everyone present could feel theheart-pounding intensity of the explosion.

"Well done!" Jones expressed his satisfaction.

The phone recording ended there, leaving everyone in shock.

Could it be that the explosion in the Pansy Group warehouse was notan accident at all, but a deliberate act with someone planting a bomb?According to this recording, the person responsible for planting thebomb was highly likely to be Jones.

Faced with everyone's questioning, Jones tightly clenched his fingers,raised his voice, and said, "It's just a recording from who knows where.What does it prove? Do you have any evidence to show that I'm theone talking on the phone? Or any evidence linking the bomb toWarehouse 1?"

Jones bombarded them with several counterquestions, his toneaggressive.
