Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Kill a Person, Strike at the Heart

Throughout the night, Maggie earnestly discussed possible responses with the Cameron family.

Consequently, Ronald invited the Cameron Group’s principal investors for a nocturnal gathering at his residence.

That evening, there was no shortage of vigor among the Camerons.

Dawn arrived sooner than expected.

No viable solutions emerged, not due to a lack of creative thinking on the Camerons‘ part the night before, but because every strategy they considered seemed insufficient to halt their ongoing downturn and dilemma.

As the old adage goes, “Hit where it hurts.” In this instance, their adversaries had adeptly pinpointed the Camerons‘ vulnerabilities, effectively eliminating most of their avenues for recourse.

Both Master Cameron and Madam Cameron were dealing with health issues owing to their age, yet the pressing nature of dealing with projects worth tens or even hundreds of billions prevented them from resting.

Noah’s usually jovial face now carried a trace of sorrow, his expression taut.

Mary’s feelings had evolved from initial irritation and fury to a state of despair.

Ronald had sternly criticized Joseph, leaving him feeling as though he had been hit by an icy gust, rendering his propositions ineffective and inconsequential.

Meanwhile, Maggie pretended to be invested, and although her recommendations were sensible, they too failed to significantly impact the grim scenario.

At that moment, an important investor was alerted by his phone and stood up from the couch.

“Bad news, the incident from last night is spreading like wildfire online, drawing a barrage of critical comments. Prominent internet personalities and official accounts are broadcasting the news. They’re casting us in a severely negative light. Now, the public sentiment is massively against us.”

Ronald’s expression darkened, “What’s the situation with the PR team? Weren’t they tasked with managing this crisis immediately, overnight? And Joseph, didn’t I direct you to engage with the press to quell the spread of the news?” 

Noah shook his head, “Despite their round–the–clock work, the public isn’t convinced. We’re facing overwhelming negative sentiment, and our attempts to counter it are falling flat.”

Joseph responded, icy, “I’ve reached out to numerous media outlets, only to be met with silence or dismissal. Those who did respond argued that the incident had stirred too much uproar, believing that the truth would come to light on its own. No one’s willing to keep quiet.

Maggie, scanning her phone with a furrowed brow, added, “Even the official website has stepped in, issuing 

a harsh criticism of the Camerons‘ actions and delivering a severe condemnation.”

Ronald sank deeper into the sofa, his expression one of utter dismay.

trustworthiness, heralding a potential collapse of Luster Corporation entirely.

The aftermath of this scandal also brought the Adams‘ 1 wsuit into the spotlight. Consequently, numerous internet personalities and influencers bought similar items from both companies at premium prices for detailed comparison.

The verdict was unanimous: the Adams‘ jewelry showcased superior craftsmanship and elegance, whereas the Camerons‘ offerings were found to be inconsistent and of lower quality.

Some went further, conducting exhaustive comparisons of the operational, execution, and customer service approaches of both entities.

The findings pointed out the disarray within the Camerons‘ operations, including pricing inconsistencies and haphazard initiatives.

On the flip side, the Adams were praised for their organized, scientific, and dependable management customer service.

Maggie understood Ericko had taken action. 

Despite the Adams‘ ethical practices and potential to rank among the top luxury brands for years, they were undeniably a force to be reckoned with.

This development seemed to completely eclipse the Camerons.

Noah reported, with a concerned look, ‘Designers are now openly blogging, uniting in a boycott against the Camerons, and some have even begun sharing what you said yesterday.” He paused, casting a glance at Ronald, who looked completely taken aback.

While targeting these designers‘ weaknesses or personal matters might have been deemed permissible, the broader implications and fallout from this scandal spreading were another matter entirely.

Ronald was overwhelmed with frustration, recognizing that the calamity had stemmed from his own actions, leaving him no room to fault anyone else.

Yet, the photograph was merely a backdrop to the crucial message conveyed through the Weibo post.

To conclude the year, the Adanis have unveiled a special promotion: any customer purchasing jewelry from the Adam Group will receive a complimentary thermos cup with Madagie’s signature. This is for those who have experienced heartbreak after purchasing from certain company.”
