A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172 

“What’s going on, Jamison? Didn’t you say victory’s on our side?” Hermann 

started getting anxious too. 

When everything had unfolded as planned, Hermann had reveled in a sense 

of complacency, relishing the heartless notion of witnessing Roselynn and 

Emmanuel’s suffering. 

However, the tables had turned. 

“Grandpa, there’s no need to panic!” Jamison’s expression momentarily froze 

before he swiftly regained his smug smile. “Since Roselynn and Emmanuel 

are fighting back with their articles, it’s normal for them to gain some 

supporters. They might have also paid money to boost the visibility of the 

article or employ ghostwriters. The transient dissenting voices won’t have a 

significant impact on the overall situation. People have been berating them 

for two consecutive days, and these minor disruptions won’t make any 

difference.” 

Convinced that his analysis was sound, Hermann slowly regained his 

composure. 

“Grandpa, I’m going to call my friends now and tell them to step up their 

game!” Jamison uttered. 

“Great! I can’t wait to see the desperate look on Roselynn’s and Emmanuel’s 

faces!” Hermann let out a haughty laugh. 

Hermann was filled with anticipation as he witnessed Emmanuel and 

Roselynn’s struggle. Although their initial resistance had briefly concerned 

him, he soon realized he would have been disappointed if they did not put up 

a fight. 

Hermann became convinced that Emmanuel and Roselynn would eventually 

realize the futility of their efforts, and out of desperation, their only option 

would be to succumb to the pressure and pay his family to quell the 

backlash online. They’ll kneel before us, begging for mercy and pleading for 

us to delete the posts and articles. It’ll be a resounding victory for us! It was 

the sheer gratification of overpowering his opponents that he truly craved. 

You heartless siblings! Your unwillingness to provide the eighty thousand has 

caused my grandson’s dreams of attending university to crumble, shattering 

his future. It’s time for you to face the consequences and pay the price! 

As soon as Jamison posted in the group, his friends, who had received a few 

hundred from him, began commenting on the post. 

After setting down his phone, he eagerly awaited the unfolding drama, ready 

to witness the pendulum of public opinion swing once more. 

Yet, seconds later, his expression turned into one of disbelief. 

All eight of his friends had abruptly changed their stance on the previously 

popular comments they had posted, now accusing Jamison of bribing them 

to act as keyboard warriors for him. 

“These ungrateful b*stards! How dare they betray me after taking my 

money?” Jamison cussed. 

He was at a loss for how to react to the sudden betrayal by his eight buddies. 

The impact of their comments had always been significant, capturing the 

attention of netizens. But now, with their sudden change of allegiance, the 

Cadigan family’s carefully crafted reputation was on the verge of collapse. 

“How did this happen, Jamison?” Hermann grew increasingly anxious. 

He had been counting on Roselynn and Emmanuel to reach their breaking 

point and come to him begging to delete the posts. If the Cadigans ended 

up losing, it would not only leave them penniless, but it would also result in all 

their previous investments going down the drain. 

“I-I have no idea! I’ll call those guys and give them a piece of my mind!” That 

was the least Jamison could do now. 

All this while, Jamison had been under the impression that it was the 

individuals he had paid who had caused the story to trend at the top 

position. 

Unbeknownst to them, the success of their article reaching the top of the 

trending topics was not a result of their own efforts. 

In fact, there had been people behind the scenes boosting the visibility of his 

article. 

Meanwhile, Emmanuel borrowed Mackenzie’s laptop and sat at home, 

observing the online trends. He could not help but feel a sense of satisfaction 

and pride. “Jamison and Hermann must be feeling desperate now, huh? The 

truth will prevail, and their deceitful attempts to smear me and my sister are 

bound to fail!” 

Mackenzie, who had been watching the situation unfold alongside him, had a 

completely different perspective. The truth will prevail? Please. It’s all about 

money and clever tactics! That’s the ultimate recipe for success! 

Of course, she would not seek credit in front of Emmanuel. After all, she just 

wanted to help him resolve the matter. 

“Thank you so much, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel was someone who would 

always be grateful to people who had lent him a hand. Although he did not 

know the extent of Mackenzie’s efforts behind the scenes, he sincerely 

expressed his gratitude. “You’re truly my lucky star. Whenever I face 

difficulties, you always manage to help me solve them!” 

Mackenzie feigned indifference and snorted. “You don’t have to thank me! I 

told you as long as we’re not divorced, we’re still husband and wife. I certainly 

can’t let anyone bully you!” 

Her remark rendered Emmanuel speechless for a moment.
