David, in a state of panic, suggested, “There are many employees outside who have learned first aid. Perhaps we can…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Evelyn turned Henry around, deftly unfastened his belt, and injected the medicine into his gluteal muscle.
David: “…”
Madam… Madam actually did such a thing to boss! There were simply no words to describe his current feelings. David stared at Evelyn with his eyes wide open, completely dumbfounded.
If boss knew about Madam’s actions, and he, as an accomplice, just stood by and watched, he would surely lose his life!
Evelyn didn’t know what Henry’s reaction would be when he woke up. But why did she feel a bit frightened?
Sensing David’s gaze, Evelyn looked up alertly, her eyes sharp, “I don’t want him to know about this.”
David: “… Yeah, neither do I.”
The two reached a consensus and took Henry back to the lounge.
Evelyn anxiously paced around the loung, observing Henry’s allergic symptoms gradually improving before leaving.
“I just remembered there’s something I need to deal with at my company. I must go back. David, I’ll leave this to you.”
“Madam!” David wanted to keep her there. However, when he looked up, there was no figure in front of him. Evelyn had already left like a whirlwind.
David silently watched, unable to voice his grievances.
…
With the exposure of Quetzal’s information on the internet, the situation became increasingly uncontrollable.
Zane wore a grim expression, “Evelyn, our official website and the only Twitter account for ‘Glory’ have been bombarded by netizens to the point of paralysis.”
Evelyn: “…”
The development of the situation completely exceeded her expectations, so she had to close the net ahead of schedule. Evelyn sat down and contacted the young model who had sent her messages before.
Soon, the young model posted another message.
The content of the post was concise yet striking, hitting the key points. It introduced the process of her learning about Perry’s endorsement for ‘Glory’, voluntarily contacting Evelyn to expose the information, and the entire conversation where Evelyn promised to use this opportunity to seek justice for her publicly. It also included messages from other victims who had contacted the young model for evidence.
This indirectly acknowledged that YR Company was well aware of Perry’s issues but still hired him as the spokesperson for ‘Glory’. The purpose was merely to capitalize on the popularity of “Glory” to expose his misdeeds. However, the outraged netizens, after seeing these messages, found it hard to direct their anger.
In less than three minutes, this post was forwarded millions of times, spreading the truth of the matter almost at the speed of light.
[Wow, I never expected the truth of the matter to be so heart-wrenching. It was my fault for being so outspoken, misunderstanding YR Company and Evelyn.]
[To the netizens who were shouting before, come out and apologize. This isn’t about harming ‘Glory’, but about knowingly risking ‘Glory’s’ reputation to expose Perry for the sake of justice for these young girls.]
[Unbelievable, I’m never going to idolize celebrities again. Evelyn is now my new idol.]
[I want to slap myself in the face. I actually deactivated my ‘Glory’ account. To make amends, I’ve decided to get a VIP membership for a hundred years.]
[I feel like I owe an apology to ‘Glory’ and Evelyn. I’m sorry, I was wrong.]
The comments were filled with apologies and praises. Zane blinked his eyes hard, made sure they weren’t deceiving him, and then gave Evelyn a thumbs up.
“Evelyn, you truly are a marketing genius. You can handle this kind of scandal so skillfully.”
Looking at the increased popularity of the news, which had doubled from the original twenty million to over a hundred million, this was a level of publicity that even YR Company couldn’t achieve with money.
Not only that, regardless of future developments, the reputation of ‘Glory’ would no longer be tarnished.
At this moment, Glen rushed into Evelyn’s office with a laptop in hand, “It’s surging, Director Taylor, surging.”
“Player numbers are surging?” Zane walked over and saw that the server for ‘Glory’ was reaching full capacity. Judging by the number of players, it seemed to be more than double the previous count.
Evelyn looked at the two and instructed, “Go back and tell the technical team to be ready to repair the servers at any time.”
…
The positive reviews for ‘Glory’ quickly climbed to the top of the trending searches. Seeing this news, Mia was so angry that she threw the nutritious porridge to the ground.
“Mom, what’s going on? Wasn’t it said that that woman would never make a comeback? Look at this, what is it?”
Scarlett didn’t even have time to clean up the trash on the ground before flipping out her phone to check the overwhelming changes online.
“This… How is this possible? I clearly contacted that young model and even gave her money. That woman actually dared to cheat my money.”
Scarlett angrily said, “Daring to cheat my money, I won’t give her another chance in the entertainment industry.”
“You go contact Jasper and have him blacklist her for me.”
“Mom.” Mia disagreed and said angrily, “I’ve gone deaf. The Reid family really won’t recognize me anymore if I recklessly make demands on him.”
“Ding…” A sudden sound rang out.
Both of them looked at their phones at the same time, and another message arrived.
Seeing the content, the expressions of the two distorted.
In the midst of the peak reposting of the post, the young model quickly posted a screenshot of the conversation where Scarlett bribed her, along with the transaction records. She had accepted the money and then generously donated it to a charity organization.
Comments quickly filled with many curses against Scarlett.
“It’s over.”
Previously, she thought dealing with a small model was easy, and a small sum of money would solve everything, so she didn’t bother to use a fake account.
Now, those netizens in the comments were starting to doxx her.
“Mia, if they manage to doxx me, how will The Reid family perceive us?” Scarlett was in anxiety and suddenly said, “Why don’t you go beg Jasper, let only him know about it, and ask for his help to resolve this.”
“No,” Mia immediately refused, “If I really tell him, my image in his eyes will be tarnished.”
“Mom, don’t worry. We can hire a hacker to deal with this,” she quickly took out her phone, “My friend knows a big shot called V God, and although the price is a bit high, for matters like this, she can handle it without leaving a trace.”
Scarlett said, “Then hurry and contact her.”
Evelyn hadn’t logged into V God’s account for a long time. Luckily, she was in a good mood today, so she decided to log in and take a look.
Without a doubt, as soon as she logged in, she received numerous messages. She skipped over the useless ones and focused on a familiar email.
FNX! It was from Henry again, and this time, it was sent in the name of The Wilson Group. Was this project, which even his father couldn’t complete, really so important?
Evelyn frowned slightly and chose to delete the email. In her previous life, she was completely unaware of this project that couldn’t be unlocked. But now, she harbored deep hostility towards it, as if her subconscious was telling her that Henry should not touch this project.
Before she could contemplate it further, another email notification appeared.
Evelyn glanced at it and, upon seeing Mia’s exclusive avatar, she grinned with interest. Seeking help from her now? Unfortunately…
The content of the email was straightforward. Mia was willing to pay one hundred thousand for V God’s help in resolving the trouble. For a hacker, this was already a considerable sum.
However, Evelyn couldn’t let Mia off so easily. She tapped her fingers on the keyboard and sent a simple email back.
In the hospital, Mia was nervously staring at the computer. When she saw the email, she was ecstatic. But…
“One million!”
“What?” Scarlett exclaimed, “She’s extorting us!”
“Change to someone else, Mia. Does your friend know other hackers?”
“Mom, V God guaranteed that once the money is transferred, she will resolve the issue within three minutes. Other hackers would take half a day.”
Scarlett’s face turned grim, “Mia, you know my kidney disease has drained a lot of savings, not to mention your cochlear implant. One million, and we have to keep it from The Reid family and your father. Where are we going to find that?”
“I still have three hundred thousand,” Mia gritted her teeth. “But the remaining seven hundred thousand… I can’t just go to Jasper and borrow it, can I?”
Scarlett’s expression grew even more unpleasant. After careful consideration, she reluctantly suggested, “Do you remember the channel I provided you with two years ago?”
“Mum!”
“What are you talking about? You mean I should auction myself?”
