The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 581: Far Too Calm

The press conference is set at the Crestfall Grand Hotel.

The scene was already crowded with people, some of whom had white towels wrapped around their heads, with the word "Protest" scrawled in red. As for the others, they had seen the news online and, before that, had consumed products from Midnight Coffee House and were there seeking compensation as ordinary passersby.

Of course, these people were unable to enter the venue; however, they could watch the live broadcast via the large screen on the hotel entrance.

The ones allowed inside were media personnel, those responsible for food regulation, and some self-media celebrities from the internet.

After Damian Knight’s car arrived at the scene, the bodyguards, fearing a disturbance, directed the driver to head straight to the entrance, allowing Damian Knight to smoothly enter the venue.

However, Damian Knight did not go directly to the conference room; instead, he went into the restaurant at the Crestfall Hotel, sat down, and ordered food.

Beside him, Assistant Shelton was circling nervously, expressing concern, "Young Master Knight, the conference scene is quite chaotic. Some media weren’t invited by us, they came on their own. I couldn’t stop them. Do you think you should personally go and ask them to leave?"

Damian Knight, while checking the menu, replied nonchalantly, "No need."

"But there’s a question-and-answer segment in the conference. If their questions are too sharp, it could cause further reputational damage to Midnight Coffee House."

"No need to worry," Damian Knight paused and added, "We can use this opportunity to see which media outlets have been bribed."

Sweat broke on Assistant Shelton’s forehead; he felt Damian Knight was too calm, so calm it made him uneasy.

At a time like this, shouldn’t one be anxious? Why is he sitting down to lunch instead?

Damian Knight seemed to see his worries and said, "A person is iron, food is steel. It’s already past one o’clock; give me time to have lunch."

"Understood." Assistant Shelton reluctantly answered, turning to give Damian Knight some space.

At that moment, Damian Knight suddenly called him back.

"Wait."

Assistant Shelton paused, hurriedly turned his head, and asked excitedly, "Do you want me to drive those uninvited media away?"

"No." Damian Knight handed the checked menu to Assistant Shelton, saying, "Order an extra portion of the dishes I’ve circled and have them sent to Crestfall First Hospital for Summer Monroe." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"...Understood." Assistant Shelton accepted the menu begrudgingly.

He had overthought it.

His boss seemed to be the type to remain unfazed even with a mountain collapsing before him; he should stop worrying unnecessarily and perhaps pray more to Buddha, in hopes that the Midnight Coffee House will safely get through this crisis.

Assistant Shelton was unaware that the guest still in emergency care had awakened and would soon be able to come over, hence his visible anxiety.

But Damian Knight had no plans to inform him, nor anyone else about it.

When that guest arrives, it will be a brutal moment of embarrassment.

Meanwhile.

Willow Grant had only taken leave for one class, so after saying goodbye to Susan Stone, she headed to Crestfall University by car.

On the way, she called Mrs. Grant in Rivain.

The call connected quickly, and Mrs. Grant’s voice was slightly anxious, "Willow, I’ve seen the news; the Midnight Coffee House incident is huge. Has Young Master Knight mentioned any response strategies to you?"

Willow Grant had never shared recent happenings with Mrs. Grant, such as Damian Knight personally asking her to leave Knight Manor.

She bit her lip and said, "Mom, don’t worry about that now. I need you to immediately look up someone for me."

"Who?"

"Summer Monroe. She’s in the same class as me and is also the young lady of the Stanton Group."
