The price of the bulletproof suit had increased greatly, but the money that could be seen and touched could not enter his pocket. This made Philip, who had been forced to discuss matters with the nobles early in the morning, feel even worse when he saw the data on the paper in his hand.
But the shares had just been exchanged and the contract had been signed. According to the agreement, he could only wait for a month before he could get a dividend. Philip's family and Grosvenor, who also had shares, were both envious and helpless.
King Philip's family was in a bad mood for the time being. The second thing that was highlighted in the news was the Aston Martin supercar driven by William, which was hit by hundreds of rifle shots but did not affect its normal driving.
The host was full of praise. If it were not for this car, it would have been very difficult for William to rush into Westminster Abbey alone in time to save hundreds of England's upper echelons.
If the rescue was not in time and the terrorists broke through the defense and rushed into the abbey first, the news that everyone would hear today would be that more than half of England's upper echelons were dead or injured, the government was completely paralyzed, and the economy and politics directly went back 20 years.
This made Aston Martin, headquartered in Gaydon, Warwick, overjoyed and worried because they had received a large number of inquiries early in the morning.
But the supercar that William drove, although the appearance was indeed the new DB9 that they were about to launch, they had never produced a bulletproof model at all.
The company changed hands a few months ago, but the new boss sent a large group of lawyers, accountants, and several agents to their headquarters.
After checking the company's accounts, the agents left a blueprint of the DB9, ordered a few new cars on the blueprint, and told them that everything would be as usual. Then they disappeared without a trace.
But after this incident, the people of Aston Martin could not help but have a conjecture that they had never dared to think before, and that was that their new boss was probably the super-rich William in Devonshire.
As soon as this idea came out, all the senior executives of Aston Martin discussed it and took a gamble to say that they were honored to be in William's good graces.
They also advocated that William was a hero of all England, and hoped that the royal family would award William the highest grade in England, the Order of Garter.
When the media heard this, they immediately found a new reporting point. According to European and American customs, saving a comrade on the battlefield would usually earn one a medal.
Now that William had saved hundreds of people from the upper echelons of society, it was normal for him to receive the Garter Medal. Even the television station took over the Aston Martin's banner and praised William as the hero of England, and even the hero of the capitalist world.
As time passed, many inside stories were uncovered by the media. Among the leaders of the countries that William had saved, not only were there King Philip, the leaders of Germany, France, and Italy, but there was also Benjamin Arthur, the head of the United States.
When Benjamin Arthur publicly announced that he would award William with the highest honor in the United States, William's reputation reached its peak.
When it was confirmed that he was the hero of the capitalist world, many American media tentatively proposed many ways to reward him, which caused a lot of discussion among the people.
The reward money was definitely not suitable. William's public identity did not have a public office, so he could not be promoted. Under the deliberate influence of many people, many people thought that an honorary medal was not worthy of such a great achievement. In the end, the American media discussed it.
They hoped that the English royal family would break the convention and promote William, who was the heir to the earl, to reward him for his outstanding contribution in the crisis of the entire England.
Seeing these compliments, William knew that the Americans had seen him in the underworld and had issued a sky-high bounty for Amir Barkavi and his accomplices.
Some of Barkavi's men were indeed killed by the killers, and the money was paid. After confirming that William was worth roping in, they began to fulfill their promise to him.
The first step was to test the reaction of the people. After confirming that there was not much opposition to the promotion of William's title, they immediately increased the coverage and praise.
At noon, three days after the attack, English television suddenly broadcast a mourning news. The news content was that the Earl of Oxford had passed away four days ago, at 1: 21 p.m. on the day of the attack in London.
The news of the death of the Earl of Oxford that night spread throughout England, accompanied by more inside stories about the attack on Westminster Abbey.
The attack was not as dangerous as everyone had previously thought. Not only did the Earl of Oxford die, but several older people almost died of heart attacks.
When this new report came out, the discussion about William was stirred up again, and the media's attention was immediately focused on the truth of the earl's death.
Some conspiracy theories even began to circulate, and many versions of the story began to circulate.
Many people at the abbey were grateful to William and afraid that the media would distort the report, so they took the initiative to come forward and tell the public what they knew about the cause of the earl's death.
More than a dozen people of high status came forward at the same time, so the credibility was still very strong. However, the world never lacked people who stirred up trouble. Not only did people like to rely on this kind of thing as a conspiracy, but no matter what the truth was, William would always be the one who benefited the most.
Whoever benefited the most would be the most suspicious.
However, the discussion stopped when the earl's wife came forward with the examination report of the earl from Oxford Hospital and personally came forward to explain.
After the attack on the abbey, the earl followed everyone to hide in the basement in a panic. He was not in good health to begin with, and he was too frightened to make it through the intense exercise.
When he learned that he was rescued, panic and joy alternated. His mood fluctuated so violently that he suddenly fell to the ground without warning. At that time, because the battle was over, the bodyguards did not take long to find the car.
Unfortunately, on the way to the hospital, the road they chose was blocked by a traffic jam. By the time the bodyguards took a detour to another hospital, it was already more than an hour later.
When they arrived at the hospital, the earl was actually still alive. However, because of the power outage, the hospital generated its own electricity, so there was not enough electricity. Many of the equipment could not be used, and because there were too many people who needed treatment at the time, there were not enough doctors.
In addition, the whole city was in chaos, and many doctors who were on vacation did not return to the hospital. After the earl was sent to the emergency room, he passed away because too much time had passed.
These situations were personally experienced by the bodyguards and the earl's wife. There was also the examination report of the doctor who saved the earl and sent back to Oxford Hospital yesterday.
The report stated that there was nothing that should not be found in the earl's body. External factors were ruled out, and the conclusion of death was that he was not sent to the hospital in time.
Seeing this, William could not help but praise Harriet in his heart. He was indeed an ace agent. The person who caused the traffic jam must be him. There was not much calculation. As long as he went with the flow, no one would be able to find any evidence.
