Chapter 81 Another Wave Rises
"Well done. You can go directly to the store and get that bag. I will talk to the store manager in advance." Elaine said.
"Thank you, Miss Abbott. If you have anything else, you can leave it to me. After all, Susanna and I have a score to settle." Allison replied.
Allison hung up the phone. Thinking about the bag she was about to get, she suddenly felt very excited.
Allison knew that as long as Susanna went to that villa, she would never be able to protect herself. Although Susanna came back early, her swollen mouth must be from a man's kiss. Allison hoped that Susanna would replace her in serving that weirdo Johnny.
Susanna was absent-minded in the afternoon. Every time she drank water, she could think of her kiss with Aaron. She covered her face and thought, 'I must be crazy! No, I need to calm down. How could I possibly have desires for Aaron?'

The next day, after Susanna's morning class ended, she went straight to the studio.
Not long after, a woman's voice came in loudly outside the studio. "Where's Susanna? Let this woman come out and see me! She is a shameless woman. My dad is already so old, yet you dare to seduce him? If something happens to his health, can you afford the responsibility?"
Hearing the commotion, Susanna walked out and saw a young woman in designer clothes. She looked very similar to the woman in the villa yesterday.
At this moment, Allison, feeling guilty, hid nearby and took the opportunity to leave the studio quietly. Although she and Johnny did use drugs when they slept together, she didn't expect to be visited by his daughter, so she had to hide.
"You must be Susanna, right? You're really shameless. Your studio relies on women's bodies for orders, doesn't it?" The woman looked extremely arrogant.
Upon hearing these words, Susanna appeared indifferent. "Ma'am, you need to provide evidence when you speak."
"Do you know what you've done? Do I need to provide evidence?" The woman said.
Susanna sneered, "Look, I just don't want you to misunderstand me, but why are you so angry? If you keep causing trouble like this, I will have to call the police."
"Call the police? Fine, then the police can arrest you. I want to see what drugs you gave my father. The doctor said they would harm his body." The woman continued.
Thinking of yesterday's disgusting villa, Susanna didn't expect Johnny to be so ungentlemanly. This matter had nothing to do with her, so why should she be afraid to call the police?
At this moment, Dick walked in from outside. "Ma'am, you might be mistaken. There wouldn't be such a person in my studio. Could you have some misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding? Susanna, dare you say you didn't go to my father's villa yesterday?" The woman replied.
Susanna nodded. "I did go, but it was only for my job."
"Well, what job were you doing? Clearly, you were going to seduce my father. His villa doesn't need to be designed by you, so stop making excuses." The woman shouted.
Dick continued, "We have records of this order, and our designer did go to your father's villa as required. It's our workflow. If you slander our employees for this reason, we reserve the right to pursue legal action against you."
"What rights do you have to reserve? You're just a bunch of incompetent designers, so what qualifications do you have to reserve any rights?" The woman retorted.
Dick's expression turned cold. "Although we're just employees, the female designers in my studio earn money based on their capabilities, and no one is inferior to you. Please leave immediately!"
"Fine. You arrogant bunch. Wait and see!" The woman cursed as she left.
The studio returned to calm. Susanna felt a bit uncomfortable with the way her colleagues were looking at her.
Dick said, "Go back to work. I will definitely protect the rights of our female employees."
Hearing this, Susanna felt warm inside. "Mr. Johnson, thank you for believing me."
"Of course, I believe you. We encounter many strange things in our work, so I will help you resolve this matter, even if it means losing this design order." Dick said.
Susanna nodded. "I feel sorry, but I have already secured this order."
Dick was surprised. "Really?"
Perhaps Susanna didn't expect the situation to develop this way, but she had indeed secured this design order yesterday.
"It's true, but I didn't do anything shameless," Susanna replied, but she did not mention the process. Anyway, even if she did, it wouldn't help in this matter.
Dick hesitated for a moment and finally answered with a smile, "I understand. Susanna, this shows that you are very capable. After all, you are Master Susan."
Susanna returned to her seat, feeling terrible. She always felt uneasy, feeling that this matter was not over.
The next day, the studio was reported. At the same time, someone disclosed on Twitter, it reads: [Renowned beauty designer Master Susan secures luxury home order through physical intimacy]
This information spreads instantly on the internet. There were a lot of retweets.
Susanna was awakened in the morning by her good friend Flandre. "Susanna, are you still sleeping? Quickly read the message I sent you. Someone is spreading rumors about you!"
Upon hearing this, Susanna instantly woke up. She quickly took out her phone. When she saw the headline, she trembled with anger.
When Susanna clicked to see the content, she said, "None of these are true."
"I know, but now netizens only believe what they see. Susanna, have you offended someone? We should call the police." Flandre said.
"I have a vague idea of who did it." Susanna hung up the phone. After calming down for a moment, she called Arthur. Arthur's voice sounded a bit hoarse, and he seemed to have just woken up.
She remembered the time difference between Novaria and Lindwell, so she apologized, "Arthur, I'm sorry to disturb you."
"Susanna, I'm fine. What's wrong? Do you need something urgent?" Arthur asked.
Susanna paused. "Arthur, can you help me find out the ID now?"
"Okay. Whose ID do you want to check?" Arthur asked.
Susanna sent him the message. "I want to find out who the anonymous poster is?"
After seeing the headline, Arthur's sleepiness disappeared instantly. He angrily said, "Susanna, don't worry. I'll handle this."
Arthur thought to himself, 'Damn. Who the hell dares to spread rumors about Susanna?'
Arthur got out of bed. As he turned on the computer, he called his other five brothers one by one.
All five of his brothers were angry. "Arthur, what's wrong with you? Why are you calling me so early?"
Arthur's face turned cold. "Someone has fabricated stories and slandered Susanna, and now the headlines in Lindwell are all about her. Just now, Susanna complained to me in distress, asking for help finding the anonymous poster's ID. Susanna has been bullied like this, and you all still have the heart to sleep."
