qWhen Charlotte arrived on level 68, Johann, Lucy, and the upper management of Divine Corporation were already
waiting for her.
After a discussion with Johann, they decided to hold a press conference the next afternoon, and Lucy would
announce the event to the public.
However, Johann was still anxious. “Judging from the situation, I think the media companies have been bribed. What
if they refuse to listen to your explanation and solely condemn you? How should we deal with it?”
“Have the legal team join the press conference.” Charlotte came up with a decision without hesitation. “We'll speak
with evidence. Record the attendance of all the media companies. Should there be any attempt to defame me,
we'll issue a letter of demand immediately.”
“That's a great way to do it.” He nodded and said, “I've sent someone to investigate the matter. Let's hope we'll find
out the culprit soon enough.”
“Come to think of it, to be courageous enough to go against Nacht Group openly, the person behind this must be
some formidable force.” A deep frown creased her forehead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Who can it be?” Johann could not wrap his head around the situation. “I really can't think of anyone.”
“Let's put this aside for now. Get ready for the press conference instead.” Compared to him, Charlotte was more
levelheaded. “We'll take it one step at a time.”
“All right.”
Johann left afterward.
Charlotte was prepared to go through the documents when Lucy came to report to her. “Ms. Lindberg, a new
rumor has been released.”
“What is it about?” Charlotte was still flipping the pages.
“This time, they've gotten Mr. Lindberg involved. He's accused of being the mastermind of your revenge plan...”
Lucy said in a soft voice.
That made Charlotte stop looking through the documents. Extending her hand, she took the tablet from Lucy. Rage
colored her features as she scrolled through the page.
The rumors claimed that the downfall of Lindberg Corporation was due to Danrique's mismanagement and that he
had instructed Charlotte to target Nacht Group because he lacked the resources to rebuild their family's legacy.
At the same time, they also listed out examples and pieces of evidence that showed how Lindberg Corporation
plotted against Nacht Group in the past. The article was written in a convincing fashion, and one would easily
believe that it was the truth.
Fury blazed up within Charlotte after she read everything.
This is too much! It's one thing to accuse me, but to drag Danrique into this! Danrique is a principled man. He's not
the kind of person that will covet things that don't belong to him. Heck, he might not even accept them even if they
were presented to him as a gift!
“This article went viral, and many netizens believe it.” While observing her expression, Lucy uttered cautiously,
“Now, many media companies are trying to get in touch with our public relations department, hoping to get
updates.”
Charlotte was enraged, but she remained rational. Putting down the tablet, she replied calmly, “We'll deal with this
at tomorrow's press conference.”
“But...” Lucy looked at her worriedly. “New rumors keep sprouting. If we wait till tomorrow, the stock price of Nacht
Group may—”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What do you mean by new rumors?” Charlotte was exasperated.
“Just a minute ago, there's another article...”
Lucy's voice trailed off, for she was too afraid to continue the sentence.
“What is it about?” Charlotte asked impatiently.
“L-Look at it yourself.” Lucy opened up a link on the tablet.
Charlotte took over the tablet. Upon reading the content, she flew into a rage. Slamming her fist on the table, she
stood up and roared, “What the f*ck!”
The article claimed that Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie were not Zachary's children but Danrique's.
Attached to the post were photos of the three children, and the author claimed that they all looked like Danrique
but not Zachary.
However, the post omitted the relationship between Charlotte and Danrique, giving the readers the wrong
impression while stirring up ripples of suspense.
Nevertheless, it was like the final nail in the coffin, thwarting Charlotte's plans to clear her name.
If she could not furnish any solid evidence, then the matter might be beyond salvaging.
However, Zachary had gone missing, and Henry was dead. Even if she wanted to perform a DNA test, she could not
find anyone to prove her children's biological relationship with the Nacht family.
