Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 383

Leonard answered Finley's call and said slowly, "Yosef's family controls FMZ Media. I'm afraid that…"

Finley couldn't care less if the devil himself controlled FMZ Media. Yosef's family had always been Jonathan's archnemeses, and they had tried to kill him while he was in Aquastead on several occasions. Wiping out FMZ Media was the least they could do to settle the score with Yosef's family.

"Mr. Finch was also beaten up by someone from FMZ Media," Finley said gravely. "Do you think we should spare them?"

Leonard was rendered speechless by this. The paparazzi had beaten Jonathan up. How had they gotten away with such a feat? Something must have happened to lead up to this shocking event.

He was about to press for details when Finley explained, "The paparazzi nearly hurt Mrs. Finch. So, I'll ask you again. Do you think we should spare them?"

Finley had been Jonathan's confidante for a long time, and his voice was laced with the chilling promise of a terrible wrath.

Leonard froze. "I see."

Everything made sense now. The paparazzi must have wanted to attack Rose, and Jonathan had probably stepped in to save her like a knight in shining armor.

Leonard had never met Rose before, but he knew from the way Jonathan behaved around her that she was more important to Jonathan than anyone else.

He muttered, "FMZ Media is knee-deep in shit this time."

Not even having the Finches as its backers could save FMZ Media from impending doom. Leonard said solemnly, "I promise Mr. Finch will hear the news about FMZ Media first thing tomorrow morning."

Leonard sounded nonchalant, but with his skills, Finley did not doubt that FMZ Media would be brought to ruins before tomorrow morning.

After ending the call, Leonard took his laptop out and got to work. It took him only a few minutes to wipe out a media company. It was a child's play for him at this point.

At 8:00 p.m., the internet was abuzz with the allegation that FMZ Media had fabricated news and distorted facts.

The netizens' curiosity was piqued after the allegation appeared on major news platforms, and they dived into a frenzied discussion.

It was revealed that the month-old news about an up-and-coming starlet whose billionaire husband divorced her after she was caught cheating with a male co-star had been a groundless scandal started by FMZ Media.

Following this, FMZ Media had also been accused of fabricating the groundbreaking incident two weeks ago where a director took advantage of an actress working under him.

The netizens ate up the gossip. As the topic began trending, more stories of those who were victimized by the company surfaced.

One of them happened to be the victim of school bullying who jumped off a building after getting picked on consistently by a scion. The incident had shocked the country.

As it turned out, the victim had resorted to taking his own life after growing tired of the public discourse incited by FMZ Media.

As similar stories surfaced all over the internet, FMZ Media became a trending topic. Netizens took to several major news platforms to voice their thoughts.

Wallace Lyons, the CEO of FMZ Media, soon got word that the police were on their way to his residence. His wife, Daisy Pattinson, was beside herself with panic as she demanded, "What do we do? Who did you cross?"

Even she could tell from the gravity of the situation that someone had orchestrated this.

Wallace froze in place. Who had he crossed? There was no telling how many people FMZ Media had crossed since its establishment, but everyone in the industry knew it was backed by the Finches. No one would dare give FMZ Media any trouble even if the company had crossed them.

However, this time was different. Wallace suddenly thought of something and quickly made a phone call.

The person on the other line was none other than Tom Greenfield, FMZ Media's most dedicated paparazzi. Wallace knew there was a high chance that Tom had something to do with this. After all, the latter had a talent for rubbing someone the wrong way.

"Did you piss anyone off lately?" Wallace asked gravely.

Sure enough, Tom stiffened. He had seen the news spreading like wildfire across the internet, and he knew who was behind it.

Still, he did not want to confess to Wallace that he was the cause of such trouble. But he paused long enough for Wallace to take his silence for admission.
