It was more than three hours before the news reached Becky.
When public opinion had first formed, Becky had been in a meeting and had no idea about what had happened.
When Jessie received the news, she called Becky immediately. But she didn’t answer her phone.
Jessie was furious at the people attacking Becky online. She instructed Payne to investigate and find out the source of the news.
Becky had left her phone in her office before going into the meeting. When she came back and checked it, Jessie had called her multiple times and sent dozens of messages.
By the time Becky learned of the ins and outs of the matter, the attack had become overwhelming. People were calling her names, including the other woman, and branding her love as valueless. Even Jessie and Payne’s joint efforts were in vain.
The last straw for Becky was when she learned that even Only I Know was under attack. She wasn’t just annoyed.
People who had once praised it were the ones attacking it.
Becky went through some of the comments before bursting into laughter.
She ended up getting punished for the mistakes she made when she was young.
Becky knew who was behind all of this.
She had been lenient enough to allow Denise to cross the line over and over again without retribution. But Denise had gone too far this time.
Becky laughed as she looked over the online criticism. She said to Talia, “Talia, please make an appointment with Elmore.”
