The camera hit the ground with a loud crash.
The man, suddenly without his camera, barely had time to register who was before him when he turned white and yelled, “Crescent is assaulting people now!”
His outcry caused a stir among those present.
Mitchel, dressed in shiny black shoes, stepped on the shattered camera. In a cold tone, he grabbed the man by the collar and tossed him to Matteo, saying, “Here’s a phony reporter who sneaked in. Take him to the police.”
The man froze for a second and protested, “I am a reporter, a legitimate one! Your claim doesn’t make a difference!”
Matteo didn’t hesitate to rip off the man’s jacket, exposing a tattoo of a gang on his arm.
The man tried to cover his shoulder, protesting, “Why are you tearing my clothes? So you’re resorting to violence now!”

Some started shouting, “They’re being violent! Look at them! They’re attacking people!”
Matteo, unfazed, swiftly located those aimed to cause chaos among the reporters and had the bodyguards subdue them.
Once their jackets stripped, the tattoos on their arms showcased they were just thugs pretending to be reporters.
The real reporters were shocked. They had followed a lead from an industry group chat, expecting a scoop. They hadn’t expected to find imposters among them with hidden agendas.
Mitchel looked over the crowd with a sharp gaze. His voice, cold and clear, broke the silence. “Who sent you here?”
A deathly silence enveloped the area.
The real reporters knew Mitchel wasn’t someone to mess with. They stumbled over their words. “Mr. Dixon, we’re sorry. We had no idea. We were just misled by the messages in the group chat.”
Mitchel’s lips tightened. “Since you’re here, you might as well get something to report.”
“No, no, no, we’re not reporting anything,” they quickly replied.

Mitchel let out a scoff. “You dare to spread fake news but are afraid to report the truth?”
They looked confused.
“The baby Miss Glyn is expecting isn’t mine,” Mitchel said with conviction. Pausing, he turned to look at Raegan affectionately and gently took her hand. “She’s the only woman I’ve ever loved, in the past and now. Got it?”
Mitchel then walked with Raegan into the studio, not glancing back.
Though the reporters didn’t dare to snap a photo of the two, they could still spin a story about Mitchel, ever the workaholic CEO of the Dixon Group, openly declaring his love, which could cause a sensation.
After interrogating the imposters, Matteo learned nothing. These guys had simply taken a gig online, clueless about the employer.
But figuring out who was behind this wasn’t hard. Judging from the questions directed at Raegan, it had to be Katie.
Matteo told his guys to hand the imposters over to the authorities.
