Chapter 82 So Fond of Trending
Upon hearing these words, five of them on the other end of the phone instantly woke up.
After seeing the message, Edward felt particularly angry. "Daniel, your legal team knows what to do now."
Daniel's face remained icy. "I know. I won't stop until I put the person behind these posts in jail."
The five men began investigating this false rumor incident in earnest.
After hanging up the phone with Arthur, Susanna couldn't sleep and felt extremely anxious.
After getting up, she washed up and headed to work. She didn't have to go to class due to the weekend.
When Susanna arrived at the office, she found that there were many people inside. However, when she walked into the studio, it became unusually quiet, and the atmosphere was somewhat strange. Susanna suddenly knew what this atmosphere was about.
Allison sneered, "Well, Susanna, you still dare to come here? Have you seen the fame of Master Susan spreading far and wide? Many studios are now questioning whether our studio's performance depends on a female designer's body. What do you expect our female colleagues to do?"
Susanna adjusted her expression. "It's the same as yesterday. They're all fake, and I will report it to the police."
Upon hearing the mention of reporting to the police, Allison appeared somewhat guilty. After all, she was the one who drugged Johnny. Now, she was pushing all the blame onto Susanna.
Allison thought to herself, 'If Susanna reported it to the police, would they find out?'
But thinking of Elaine's words, she gained some confidence.
Allison immediately retorted, "Who knows? What if you're lying? Now that you have caused a bad influence on our studio, so what do you think should be done?"
The other female designers also looked angry. After all, women are most afraid of these rumors. They are all innocent.
At this moment, Dick walked out of his office, looking angry as well. "Susanna, I didn't expect this matter to blow up like this. Its impact is extremely negative."
Susanna looked at Dick apologetically. "I know. I will handle it."
At this time, Susanna's phone rang, and she thought Arthur was calling. But when she took out her phone to check, it turned out to be Aaron's call.
Susanna glanced at Dick. "Sorry, I have to take a call."
She walked into the pantry room next to her. "Hello?"
"Susanna, you've been in the headlines lately, haven't you?" Aaron asked. Aaron sat in his office chair, his gaze turning cold as he saw the topic on his computer screen. The mansion mentioned in the news was exactly the place Susanna had mentioned during their phone call a few days ago.
It seemed that the truth or dare game wasn't about that day.
On the other end of the phone, Susanna fell silent for a moment. "Do you think I want to?"
"Are you scared now? You were brave back then, weren't you? Truth or dare? You can keep fooling me." Aaron said angrily. He had someone look into the matter, but they didn't find much.
However, it was only after seeing this headline that Aaron understood what was going on, and Susanna's call was a cry for help. Aaron thought to himself, 'Well, you're a woman who pretends to be strong. Susanna.'
Susanna pursed her lips. "So now you know, don't you? If you called to mock me, you've succeeded." Then Susanna hung up the phone.
Aaron clenched his teeth in anger. He looked at his phone, then glanced at Jimmy beside him. "Why is she so heartless? I shouldn't have called her."
Last time Susanna called him for help, wasn't she gentle? She even called him darling.
Jimmy reluctantly said, "Mr. Abbott, what should we do now?"
"Do you need me to teach you? Get rid of these headlines!" Aaron commanded.
Jimmy promptly followed Aaron's instructions and soon received feedback. Jimmy said surprisingly, "Mr. Abbott, someone has already removed these headlines, and the buzz around this matter has died down."
Aaron's face turned cold. "Who did it?"
"It's the actor Zachary in Novaria, also known as Justin," Jimmy replied.
Hearing this name, Aaron became angry. "Keep investigating! Find out who did this."
Aaron thought to himself, 'It is Lindwell, and what is an actor in Novaria worth? What could he find out?'
After hanging up the phone, Susanna returned to the office area, but everyone looked at her with dissatisfaction. She walked towards her workstation, and Allison beside her said, "Susanna, do you even have the mind to work? Because of you, we have to work overtime this weekend. And now the studio's reputation has been ruined. Don't you plan on apologizing to us?"
Susanna looked at Allison, then glanced at the other colleagues. "I apologize for the inconvenience caused by this matter, but someone maliciously spread rumors about me. I will investigate this thoroughly!"
Allison felt a little guilty. She thought to herself, 'Anyway, even if Susanna finds out, she can't do anything to me. After all, I have Elaine behind me. Elaine is the heiress of the Abbott family. Susanna is just an ordinary girl, so how could she possibly compete with Elaine?'
Allison sneered, "You're right, but no one knows if you're lying. Susanna, if you don't handle this matter properly, we won't let you off."
A designer who usually had a good relationship with Allison chimed in, "That's right. Susanna, after my admired man heard about your situation, he immediately distanced himself from me. You must take full responsibility for these things!"
"Yes, now this news has made headlines. Its number of clicks, shares, and views has probably exceeded ten million." Allison opened her phone as she said, but she realized that the headline had disappeared. "Why can't I find it? It was the top one just now. How could it suddenly disappear?"
Other female colleagues also opened their phones. "It really disappeared. It's no longer at the top!"
"How is this possible?" Allison instinctively refuted loudly, but when she realized she had revealed herself, she quickly explained, "I mean that it was first just now, but why did it suddenly disappear? It looks really strange!"
Susanna sneered, "Is it a bad thing? Do you want this matter to get worse?"
Seeing Allison's reaction, Susanna was almost certain that this matter was related to her.
Allison adjusted her expression. "Susanna, stop speaking nonsense. How could I hope this matter would get worse?"
At this moment, Allison received a phone call. She glanced at the caller ID and rolled her eyes incessantly.
