American Scandal King

Chapter 82 God Bless America
Ian and Catherine sat opposite each other in an upscale restaurant not far from the police station.

This is a restaurant with romance as its main theme, with sky blue tablecloths, red carpets, exquisite tableware on the tables, and melodious and soothing music echoing in your ears.

Changing into a neat black suit, Ian drank the red wine in his glass, cut the veal on the plate, and said casually, "Would you like some?"

He picked up his glass.

Catherine looked at him coldly.

She wore a bright yellow low-cut top, revealing a sexy cleavage, and teardrop earrings hanging from her ears, looking sexy and generous.

But this was not her intention, but a request from the director.

"If you don't want to lose your job and bring shame upon your father by assaulting someone, you'd better make the appropriate statement."

That's what Chief Becton said.

Unfortunately, although she was forced to come here, she was not very cooperative.

At this moment, Catherine replied in a cold tone: "No appetite."

Ian waved his hand nonchalantly: "I understand how you feel. In that case, let's skip the foreplay and get straight to the point."

Catherine asked, "What's the real topic? You want me to go to bed with you?"

Ian sneered contemptuously: "If I want, there are plenty of women willing to accompany me, some of whom are a hundred times more beautiful than you."

Catherine raised her head proudly: "There is no woman in this world who is a hundred times more beautiful than me, not even half as beautiful."

Ian smiled: "You think too highly of yourself. Well, let me put it this way, I need to find a few people, and your father can help me do it."

"Who?"

"His name is Mohammed Atta."

Ok?
Catherine looked at him in surprise: "Middle Eastern?"

"Yes."

"why?"

Ian thought for a moment and said, "I have a friend in Germany. They told me that there are signs that this guy may have joined a terrorist organization. But this person left Germany two years ago and came to the United States. My friend reminded me to be careful of this person because he might do something bad."

Ian wasn't worried about saying the name.

Because Atta, the main perpetrator of 911/, had no previous special operations. He was targeted only because the Germans said he had contacts with some suspected terrorists, but there was insufficient evidence, that's all... The FBI and CIA have tens of thousands of suspects like this.

As journalists, they have the right to pursue any target they think may have problems - I legally doubt everything, and if my suspicion is confirmed, that's awesome!
I, Ian Carr, have always been awesome!
My intuition is just that awesome!
As for the CIA and FBI suspecting him in the future, Ian no longer has to worry - because by that time he will already be at the top, and no one can arrest him without solid evidence.

Even evidence is useless.

This is the world of capital, capital has the final say, and all you need to worry about is not falling out of the ranks of capital!

At this moment, he smiled at Catherine and said, "So you see, your father is not only helping me, but I am also helping your father. If he can find this person and track him down, maybe he can prevent a sabotage incident."

Catherine sneered: "Are you kidding me? Do you think I will believe it?"

What I want is that you don’t believe it!
Ian said slowly, "I'm a reporter. We pursue every possible possibility. You may not believe me, but I want to know his whereabouts. So, can you do me a favor?"

Ian did not use hypnosis. This woman was stubborn. Even if she agreed under hypnosis now, she might change in a few minutes.

At this moment, Catherine took a long breath and said, "I won't agree to this. If you want to tell me something about me, just tell me!"

With that she stood up and left.

"You haven't eaten yet!" Ian said.

"Not interested." Catherine strode away. Ian laughed as he watched her leave.

He casually took out a recorder from his pocket and whispered to himself, "No, you will agree... Then it depends on whether God blesses America."

..............................

"You did such a beautiful job, Ian!"

In the villa, Lena violated her usual rules and threw herself into Ian's arms in front of Gaskell, kissing him madly.

Her blue eyes were as bright as blue emeralds, and there was a thriving fire of love in them.

This made Ian feel a little embarrassed. He looked at Gaskell and said, "I'm sorry, I..."

Gaskell smiled and waved his hand. "It's okay. If I were a girl, I'd do the same to you. It's a bit risky, but it's truly brilliant. WND is going to appreciate in value. This piece of news alone will bring you endless resources!"

Gaskell was right, this on-site interview of the highway chase was indeed awesome.

Not to mention the United States, the whole world has never seen such a scene!

Reporters chased the robbers in a speeding car and interviewed them on the spot amidst the hail of bullets. This was not an afterthought, it was an ongoing interview!!!

It's simply a fantasy to tell others about it.

Although Ian had had several gunfights before, the gunfights at that time were still at a normal level, and many exciting scenes of the battle against the Crips Gang could not be released.

This time it’s different, it’s played in full and is much more exciting!

Car races and gunfights are America's eternal favorites, and the live interviews based on this are explosive!

This piece of news was bound to bring huge traffic to WND, with accompanying news appreciation, follow-up reports, advertising revenue, increased fixed users, and countless tangible and intangible benefits - let's put it this way, WND, which was originally valued at 40 million US dollars, has increased to about 45 million with Ian's news support some time ago.

And with this exclusive news, the valuation soared to 55 million.

This piece of news is worth tens of millions!
Yes, it is that awesome, and this is just now. As long as it is managed properly, the value of WND will continue to increase.

As for the bank robbers, they managed to get away.

They managed to escape thanks to Brydeson's impressive driving skills, leaving behind a living legend.

At this moment, Ian was asked to sit on the sofa. Ian put Lena down. The girl was still curled up in Ian's arms. She looked at Gaskell and said, "I love you, Gaskell, but at least I love him more today!"

Gaskell smiled and said, "I know, baby, just stay in his arms."

Then he said to Ian, "But I still want to advise you not to take such risks in the future. You have been very successful, but you have also failed. Do you know why?"

Ian kissed Lena lightly and swirled his wine glass: "I understand. I've only proven my talent as a journalist, but what I really need to prove is my talent as a businessman."

Being such a hard-working reporter, in a sense, diminishes his talent as a businessman - what boss works so hard? If you die, the company will be in trouble!
Gaskell asked with a smile: "So how do you plan to solve this problem?"

Ian smiled and said, "It's simple. Just fulfill the bet and do some tricks."

Although this news was explosive, as we all know before, it was explosive because of the on-site drive-by report and video!

So what is enhanced is the value of WND News Network, not the Los Angeles Herald - the Herald's exclusive news can indeed increase sales, but it is far from enough to beat the Los Angeles Times.

So Ian only completed the second bet with his client, but failed to complete the bet with the Los Angeles Times.

"Be specific," Gaskell said.

"Here's the thing. I'm still planning on taking advantage of this Palos Bank incident. Remember? I owed each of those four robbers $10,000..."
