Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David) novel Chapter 158

The reporters present reminded their photographers to capture the moment. Grace Group's products had always received positive reviews, but now, with such a scandal breaking out, it was undoubtedly major news that would cause a significant social stir.

The use of Grace Group's skincare products leading to facial disfigurement and their clothes causing skin diseases instantly made headlines and sparked rapid online buzz.

Some media outlets even went as far as starting live broadcasts on the spot. In no time, hundreds of thousands of viewers flooded the livestream. Seeing the overwhelming viewership, the broadcasters couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Seeing this media outlet reap the benefits from the live broadcast, other media outlets followed suit. Each live broadcast had hundreds of thousands of online viewers, with some sending tips and asking for close-ups of Grace Group's founder.

All the live broadcast cameras were focused on Danielle. If this matter was not handled properly, it would be devastating for Grace Group.

Danielle saw these media broadcasting live, but she merely glanced at them before looking at the victims with a calm expression as she said, "Tell me one by one. Which products? Evidence? Did you bring all the products?"

The disfigured girl took off her mask, revealing her entire festering face, and said, "I used the new skincare product you just launched. You advertised that it was for problematic skin. I saved up for several months to buy this set of skincare products, but my face ended up like this after using it for a week. I was so scared that I went to several hospitals, but all the doctors said my face was irreparable.

"This is my purchase receipt." The woman handed the receipt to Danielle.

She took the woman's receipt, glanced at it, and said coldly to a senior executive beside her, "Verify the receipt information. I remember that our purchase records are permanently saved, right?”

Jason, who was standing beside them, said promptly, "Yes, Ms. Darling. Customer information is permanently recorded."

"Check out the order details, along with the payment record."

"Got it."

The disfigured woman's face turned pale when she heard this. She couldn't help but say, "What are you getting at? Do you think I'm lying to you, or do you suspect that I've never bought your products? I've asked for an explanation, but you keep stalling. Everyone online, you've got to stand up for me...”

For a moment, netizens accused Grace Group of shirking responsibility and not facing the problem directly. The livestream was filled with curses.

[I can't believe I trust Grace Group so much. It turns out to be a heartless company.]

[The girl's face has become like this, but they won't give her an explanation. They're still trying to find loopholes. I will never buy Grace Group's trashy products again.]

[Look at Grace Group's founder, dressed so glamorously with all those designer brands. That's all the common people's money! I curse Grace Group to go bankrupt soon...]

Danielle didn't miss the panic on the disfigured woman's face. She realized that the woman was trying to use public opinion to pressure her. "It's precisely because we need to give you an explanation that we want to get to the bottom of this," she said.

It didn't take long for the senior executive to return with the receipt and documents. "Ms. Darling, we've completed the verification," he said, wiping the sweat from his forehead. "This lady did purchase our product the day after the launch of our new product."

"Grace Group hasn't offered an apology yet and is still trying to slander me, suspecting that I'm faking it," the woman said. "I was really lacking in judgment to choose Grace Group back then. You've got nothing to say now, right? The evidence is all there, and you still want to quibble. I really don't know why such a heartless company can still exist."

The netizens in the livestream also started cursing. There were all kinds of nasty remarks.

[I curse Grace Group to go bankrupt and get out of our country.]

[Heartless company, scamming the people's money.]

Netizens in the livestream called out, saying that Grace Group's founder must have gone crazy from the pressure, but a hacker in the livestream noticed the website that Danielle logged into. It was the Black Web website.

That was a website that all hackers dreamed of gaining access to. It was filled with countless hacking masters. There were annual assessments, but only a handful could access the website. For the past three consecutive years, no hacker successfully passed the assessment.

The hacker in the livestream thought, 'Apparently, the assessment is personally set by the founder, but this woman logs into the Black Web website. Could it be that she is also a member of Black Web? I didn't expect to encounter a hacker while watching the drama...'

Danielle's fingers had stopped typing on the keyboard, but the words on the computer screen were scrolling rapidly. At this moment, it seemed to prove that the computer's response was not as fast as Danielle's typing speed.

Soon, all the information about the disfigured woman was displayed, but Danielle hid her personal information, leaving only some information about the incident.

She said, 'A year ago, you went to the dermatology departments of St. Katherine's Hospital, Summit Hospital, and South Mountain Hospital, as well as Tifin Beauty Salon and Omez Beauty Salon for consultations. The diagnosis records show that your face was already inflamed and had pustules...

"Your condition already existed a year ago, which proves that it has nothing to do with our products. Earlier, you asked our company to compensate you three million dollars, fix your face, and make a public apology to you nationwide.

"I've recorded all your demands. I have reason to suspect that you're extorting Grace Group and slandering our corporate image. Legal Department, I'll leave the rest for you."

Danielle spoke sonorously. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was intimidating. No one present expected such an outcome.

Seeing that Danielle had resolved the issue so quickly, the others tried to make themselves inconspicuous.

The disfigured woman knew she was finished. All her efforts were in vain, and now Grace Group wanted to hold her accountable.
