Chapter 391 Defamation
The project in Manovia seemed urgent. Jack and I didn’t speak much before he left.
As I looked at the bodyguards at the door, I felt terrible, but I was more at ease. At least Amelia wouldn’t suddenly barge in again.
The next day was when I realized I was happy too soon. I hadn’t completely woken up when I received Jean’s text message. However, she sent me a few more text messages, so I had no choice but to look at my phone.
“Eva, something terrible has happened. Amelia said you hurt her baby. You should take a look.”
Another text message said, “Our colleagues are spreading this around like wildfire. The internet trolls refuse to hear our reasoning.”
Then, it was a row of Twitter and website links
The post that received the most clicks was Amelia’s interview.
In the video, Amelia had lost her usual arrogance. Her face looked pale, stricken with tears.
“She tore my family apart. Leonard and I should’ve been together from the start. We had always loved each other. Leonard has always loved me and my baby. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have abandoned the company and brought us to Manovia,
“Eva Green is a despicable woman. She followed us to Manovia and caused me to go into early labor. We were far away in a foreign land, and my baby almost didn’t survive.
“I returned to the country to hide from her. I never thought she would come to the hospital and get other people’s children to push my son. She wanted my son dead!”
She wailed so sincerely that even I believed her, let alone the people on the internet. However, if one were to dissect her story, one would notice the loopholes
Even though her story contained loopholes, the reporters believed her and filled in some of the gaps for her.
It was difficult to investigate what happened in Manovia. Even if there was evidence, not everyone would believe it.
However, the video showed her son in the ICU. The baby’s heart was beating weakly, and he looked pitiful.
Everyone on the internet was practically on Amelia’s side, completely forgetting what she had done in the past.
The netizens were forgetful people.
I had turned into the shameless homewrecker in everyone’s eyes, the evil woman who tore a family apart. Some used my parents‘ passing to attack me, claiming that I was a natural bearer of ill luck, I was also accused of not getting Leonard’s love, which was why I wanted him to lose his family line. Some wiser people stood up for me, but everyone else’s curses immediately struck them down.
I knew some people were hired to fan the rumors. Otherwise, the comments couldn’t be so blased to one side of the story.
Amelia wanted to make my life a living hell, and so did everyone else.
If Leonard were like an ant on a hot pan handling my situation with Amelia, he would have no energy to manage Harmon Group.
