Not A Small-Town Girl

Charrington Group’s Hillside Resort, causing dozens of workers to be injured. Two of them are still in the intensive care unit.]

Along with the post was a video, showcasing a disheveled woman in her forties.

The woman pleaded before the camera, "I’m the wife of one of the injured workers. My husband was the sole breadwinner for my family. Now that he’s seriously injured and lying unconscious in the hospital, I demanded compensation from the Charrington Group. However, Mr. Charrington rejected my request.

"I have to feed my kids and my parents. How is my family supposed to make do without any compensation or source of income? My poor 80- year-old mother is sick and waiting for someone to support her medical costs.

"I heard Mr. Charrington goes around in suits worth millions of dollars. He surely knows how to enjoy himself. Yet he is harsh on the families of the injured workers. "The Charrington Group is a black company. They treat ordinary people like us as lowlifes. Where should I go to seek justice? I feel doomed."

Below the video, a bunch of netizens were seeking justice for this woman.

A netizen commented: [Isn’t the Charrington Group the largest company in the region? Their chairman is the richest man in the world. Why isn’t he compensating the victims?]

Another netizen stated: [In my opinion, the richer the person, the more selfish they are. They treat ordinary people like us as a cash grab, and they’ll dispose of us when they’re done with us.]

Yet another netizen tagged the Charrington Group’s official account in his comment. [Charrington Group, stop hiding and respond to this. Even if the victims recover, they might not be able to properly work in the future. This is serious. The victims deserve our sympathy. You can’t walk away irresponsibly.]

Someone lamented: [I used to be a fan of the Charrington Group’s products. I bought whatever they offered. Now I feel cheated. Why did I put my faith in a black company? Charrington Group, go bankrupt!]

A netizen with the username ChallengeMe commented: [The government authorities should investigate the Charrington Group. How did the chairman become the richest man in the world? Their income sources might be questionable. God knows how many people were harmed over the years.]

Someone responded: [ChallengeMe, be careful with your words. I heard that David Charrington, the big boss of the Charrington Group, is a powerful guy. He’s influential in both the business world and the underground world. Beware. He might kill you.]

ChallengeMe replied: [If anything happens to me, it’s the Charrington Group’s doing.]

A netizen agreed with Challenge Me’s previous comment. [That’s right. We have the freedom of speech. If you asked me, everyone should hurry up and sell their Charrington Group’s shares. The company might close down any minute.]
