A week later, in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. Poul was reading the newspaper that was delivered to him hours ago. The headline of the newspaper read, "The Pittsburgh Current." With a cartoon depicting Poul Nielsen and Jonathan Axelsen holding a thunderbolt striking the town with lightning.
He shut the newspaper and set it aside on his table. Amelia, who was standing in front of him, looked at Poul with concern.
"Mr. Nielsen…" Amelia uttered.
"I know," Poul straightened his tie, and leaned back in his chair. "James Russell is beginning to run a smear campaign on us. Well, that's understandable, given that he is threatened by our system."
"But his statements towards you and Mr. Axelsen are wrong," Amelia said. "Please, to protect your reputation, you must issue a statement to the press, and prove him wrong."
