Chapter 350 Getting Ready to Face Slap
After everything was arranged, Matthew and Madison both got up. They went downstairs together, and Matthew ate some of the sandwiches Madison had prepared in the refrigerator.
Although Madison knew that Matthew would definitely handle it, she couldn't help but occasionally take out her phone to browse the web, looking at everyone's comments and what they were saying. Now the whole situation had been completely twisted. Although there were occasional voices speaking up for her, they were all drowned out by numerous accusations of "cheaters" and "seductresses" flooding the screen.
She really didn't expect to be cyberbullied after her husband proposed to her.
Matthew placed the hot sandwiches on the table and then took her phone, saying, "Eat first, stop looking at things online. Eat up, leave the rest to me to handle."
Madison looked up at him, nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay."
If even Matthew couldn't solve it, then there really was no way.
After eating, Matthew had Madison change into a gown, put on makeup, and deliberately dressed up, looking pure and elegant. He himself changed into a formal suit, his typical hanger-like figure with broad shoulders, narrow waist, perky hips, and long legs. Wearing this iron-gray suit, he would surely attract many eyes.
After changing clothes, Madison kept looking at him, her eyes filled with love and admiration.
Matthew held her hand, looked at her with a smile, and said seriously, "Darling, if you keep looking at me like that, we won't go anywhere tonight." Madison blinked, looking puzzled.
"You're looking at me like that again," he said, covering the corner of her eye with his finger, gently caressing it.
In Madison's eyes, there was admiration and love for him.
Every time he looked into her eyes, the heart in the left side of his chest would involuntarily beat faster and faster, even though they had been together for a long time.
His heart still raced so fast because of her.
Matthew leaned down to kiss her, his thin lips touching hers lightly, stopping after a brief touch, resting against her forehead, and hoarsely saying, "We must go out tonight to resolve the online issues."
Then, holding Madison's hand, they walked out of the villa's gate together. Matthew personally drove to the JK Group building, where the floors of the entertainment department were brightly lit and bustling. Tonight, due to a last-minute change in the program, everyone was working overtime.
Since the establishment of the group, Matthew had not accepted any television interviews yet, at most appearing in financial magazines. This first appearance was indeed to take care of his own business, appearing on his own show. The colleagues who stayed to work overtime didn't feel it was hard at all; they were all extremely excited.
Everyone knew that Matthew was married, and many colleagues had also seen Madison, especially the employees in the top floor secretary center who were quite familiar with her. However, Madison didn't usually come to the company, and Matthew usually kept a low profile, protecting his family quite well. Combined with Matthew's own news value, this led to the cyberbullying incident triggered by the proposal.
The focus of discussion among JK Group employees was almost entirely on the proposal, as everyone knew that Mr. Nelson was married. They just didn't expect that the already married Mr. Nelson would have such a romantic side, especially preparing such a surprising proposal for his wife.
Such a wealthy, handsome, and affectionate man was truly someone else's.
On the way, Madison couldn't help but open the web page on her phone again to check the current situation online. It seemed that there had been some reversal in the situation. A popular fan photographer had spoken up for Madison, posting a screenshot of a family photo he had taken of them on Facebook with the caption: [I can testify that the leading lady in the proposal video is Mrs. Nelson. I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Nelson's family of four by the seaside and even took a family portrait for them. Mr. and Mrs. Nelson are very affectionate, and their children are also very cute. Netizens with bad intentions, you can take a break.]
At that time, he had posted a photo of Madison's family of four on the beach, holding hands and looking at the beautiful sunset, which was very heartwarming. Because it wasn't a frontal view, it didn't cause much discussion when it was originally posted on Facebook; only photography enthusiasts commented on the composition.
Madison remembered that when he sent her the negatives, he had actively asked if he could choose a back view photo to post on his Facebook. At that time, Madison thought it was okay to share, after all, it was just a back-view, and one couldn't see what they looked like. Moreover, the photos the photographer took of their family were really good, so she agreed.
She didn't expect that the photographer would come out to help clarify the rumors now.
Because the photographer had many fans, shortly after he posted on Facebook, there were already many comments below, and half of the people believed it.
The believers mostly said: [I heard from a friend who works at JK Group that Mr. Nelson has been married for a long time. The woman in the proposal video is indeed his wife. She's not a cheater or a seductress.]
[I am a JK Group employee, and I can testify that this is our boss's wife. There is absolutely no one else.]
The non-believers were still arguing.
[They're already married. Why play at proposing? Who would believe that?]
[They even bring in people to testify. Why don't they come out and clarify themselves?]
[Exactly, rich people really know how to play.]
Some people deep down probably believed it but couldn't help feeling jealous.
After casually reading a few comments, Madison closed the web page, opened Facebook, found the photographer she had added before, and sent him a message. [Thank you for helping to clarify.]
He quickly replied: [You're welcome. It was just a small effort. I was just stating the facts. Mr. Nelson and Mrs. Nelson are the most loving couple I've ever photographed.]
Madison didn't reply further and turned off her phone screen. By then, the car had already entered the underground parking lot of JK Group.
Matthew parked the car directly in the designated parking space. After the car stopped, Madison tilted her head and looked at him, somewhat puzzled. "Why are we coming to the company? Weren't we supposed to come to resolve those rumors online? Why are we here at the company?"
Matthew got out of the car, held Madison's hand, looked at her with a charming smile, and said, "Yes, we are here to resolve it now." Puzzled, Madison was led by him into the elevator, which went straight up to the 23rd floor, where the entertainment department's studio was located.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, they saw Liam and a group of people, mainly led by him, standing at the door waiting for them.
Liam took a step forward, smiled, and said, "Matthew, Madison, you're finally here."
