“What’s going on?”
“Someone posted an article with so much
made-up bullsh*t about you, but the
main thing is that it can’t be suppressed!
Quick, go look!”
Yvette spoke with urgency.
Nicole hung up and went online. Sure
Corporation was also effected. It dipped
by more than ten percent, which made
them lose more than a billion dollars at
once.
Her phone suddenly rang, and Nicole
immediately picked up the call.
“Grant?”
Grant’s voice sounded a bit tired. “Kai’s
with you, right?”
“Yeah, we came back really late yesterday,
so he’s here with me.”
“Good. You guys stay home today. Don’t go out or come to the office.”
“I saw the news online… I’ll contact
Dominic Young right away,” Nicole said.
She was not afraid if this was just against
her, but it involved the company, so there
were too many things at stake.
Someone must be manipulating this
behind the scenes.
“I’ve already called him. Dominic said
that there’s nothing he can do about it.
Those social media accounts were hired
by someone to gang up against you.”
Nicole frowned. “Did you find out who it
‘Who else would cling to the past? Who’d
benefit the most by making me look bad?’
Nicole thought.
Grant sneered, “Who else has this
ability?”
Nicole’s heart sank. “Eric Ferguson?”
‘Is he doing this just because I kicked
Wendy Quade’s head yesterday? He wants
revenge?’
“It wasn’t Eric Ferguson, but it’s related to the Fergusons. Old Master Ferguson
gave the order.”
Grant’s tone became colder. The
Fergusons are too arrogant. Does he think
that the Ferguson family is the only one in
power?”
Back when Old Master Ferguson was in
power, he had a monopoly over the main
businesses in Atlanta. It was not an
exaggeration to say that he called the
shots in the city.
However, there were a few other big
corporations who had a favorable
advantage now. Although Ferguson
Corporation was a large corporation
deeply rooted in the city. They were still
not powerful enough to shake the Stanton
family.
Nicole’s eyes turned cold. “Anything I can
help with?”
“You don’t have to do anything. You don’t
even need to clarify this. Dad already
knows about this and he’s cutting his trip
short. He intends to announce your
identity at our company’s anniversary.
The harder they bash you now, the more
they will have to get on their knees in the
future.”
They had intended to announce Nicole’s
identity after she had established a firm
foothold in the industry. However, now it
seemed that some people could not wait to
crush Nicole.
Nicole could hear that Grant was really
triggered this time. After hanging up,
Nicole looked through the harsh
comments about her online.
Yvette and Ian also hired social media
influencers to speak for Nicole’s
innocence, but it was just a drop in the
ocean and was not at all effective.
‘So, this is the Fergusons’ power? Is Old
Master Ferguson trying to give me a taste
of the hardships he’ll add to my life to
intimidate me?’ Nicole thought.
Nicole looked out the window and saw the
crowd of reporters below. Even if they
could not see anything from below, their
cameras were aimed at her windows and
would flash with the slightest movements.
