Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 2176

Tom was very straightforward.He did not beat around the bush before going straight to the topic.

"When I walked in, I heard you questioning Mai what proof she has that you’re the one who posted the fake news online.She doesn’t have proof, but I do."

"I asked IT to look up the IP address of the person who first posted that news online.I can tell you with certainty that I know you're the one who did it.Also, I called the police to let them handle this.You can talk t o the police if you have any questions later."

Laura’s face was frozen completely when she heard this.

Bill was standing at one side, and he took a few steps back as he was losing his head out of fear.He was terrified of being implicated.

After Laura was stunned for a few seconds, she felt that Tom might just be scaring her, so she scoffed.

"You called the police? Whatever.I didn’t do it anyway.I’m innocent! Plus, if those things online are real, then it’s not fake news and there’s no defamation!"

Laura was extremely nervous on the inside, but on the outside, she was smiling coldly while pretending to b e calm.

"Guys, I’m sure you’ve seen the news online.Look at what’s happening now.Mr.Lowe is showing such great concern toward Maisie Davenport.Even idiots can tell that their relationship is out of the ordinary!"

As she said that, she rolled her eyes.

"They're lying about knowing each other for 22 years.Their relationship is improper.Such things happen all the time in the business world.Otherwise, do you think a fresh graduate like Maisie would’ve been able t o enter such a big company with her own skills?"

When Maisie saw Laura slandering her ability in front of everyone, Maisie started to get angry again.

However, Ava grabbed her and then retorted Laura with a solemn look on her face.

"I was the one who interviewed Maisie back then.She was hired because she fulfilled the company’s requirements and has the ability to work here.It’s not like what you said at all, but you, on the other hand...Hmph."

As Ava said that, she smiled while imitating Laura’s disdainful expression.

After that, she peered at Bill who was hiding in a corner.

"Laura, you and that certain someone should know very well how you joined this company."

"Ava, you..."

Laura was so mad she could not speak at that moment.

The employees on the side were all looking at this scene with wide eyes and astonished looks.
