Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1160

"Who has the video of Sophia Kirkman? Send me a copy, please?"

"Sharing is caring!"

"I want it too!"

"I want it three!"

"I've watched it once. It's so thrilling. DM me if you want it!"

"You disgusting people! What's so great about watching an old lady touching herself? It's revolting, but hey, I won't mind a copy."

While the Beckett Group was fighting the shameful scandal, the Harper Group dealt with a bigger issue at hand. The news of the Harpers poisoning KS Group's racehorse had spread like wildfire nationwide.

The incident went beyond reputational damage. Due to the foul play, Alyssa was at risk of serious injury. Following the news, Harper Group's stock price plummeted, resulting in a staggering ten billion dollar loss in market value.

Some businesses promptly terminated their partnerships with Harper Group, fearing they might become victims of the company's questionable ethics. Recognizing their lack of influence compared to KS Group, these businesses could only endure in silence if Harper Group exploited them.

Preston spent days extinguishing fires, but those he contacted only humored him due to his social standing. His arrogance at the horseracing event had become the talk of social circles, tarnishing his reputation irreparably. No one would take him seriously anymore.

Overnight, the Harper Group became the outcast of society and struggled with the repercussions.

Cornelius, already an old man, was rushed to the hospital after suffering the blow. Penelope, Zoe, and Preston stayed by his side.

Preston struggled to suppress his frustration. It was humiliating for a man of his age to be publicly scolded by his father.

Cornelius grunted. "Just lie low for now, or you'll land us in greater trouble. Hand over your projects to Landon, and let him handle the PR crisis.

"Since the public is averse to you, stay away from the public eye. You wouldn't want to fuel their hatred for the company, would you?"

With that, Cornelius waved Preston away. He effectively offered Landon a promotion, albeit a temporary one. Suddenly, Landon rose to power in the company, just second only to Cornelius.

In that position, Landon could potentially helm the company one day. Preston's expression turned into a mix of shock and hatred as color drained from his face.

After all his years toiling away for the company, he lost his power all because of a silly horseracing event. The fruits of his hard work now fell into the lap of Landon's family.
