Chapter 412
"You grew up with Sophia in the same house, yet you didn't see the signs. But, now that I think about it, Sophia's round face and bulbous nose are obviously inherited from Albert, aren't they? And Albert, that shameless man, not only cheated on your mother but also had her help him raise his bastard child. He's not even worthy of being called a human!’
Felicity kept talking like a hindsight expert, feeling that many things had already foreshadowed Albert's despicable behavior. After she finished speaking, she noticed that Stella was silent. So, she spoke softly, "Stella, you're not mad at me for cursing Albert, are you?"
Stella came back to her senses and calmly said, ‘I don't care." Albert no longer deserved to be called "father" by Stella for what he had done.
"Felicity, do you know how the Vinci Rivera Group is doing now?" Stella asked.
‘They're being roasted on social media. Many reporters are waiting outside their office building for interviews. The Vinci Rivera Group has been trending on social media for the past few days with many topics related to Sophia. So, when this scandal came out, it definitely had an impact on the company's image. Sophia's social media page even disabled the comments. People can't vent their anger there, so they went to the Vinci Rivera Group's business page to rant about it."
Not only that, but several netizens claiming to be former employees of the Vinci Rivera Group also came forward with allegations. They said that there were shady dealings in the Vinci Rivera Group’s hiring process and that their external job postings were just a cover for internal referrals. Even if a candidate was hired through external recruitment, they could still be replaced by someone with connections to the company during their probation period. With so many hidden rules, they also said that the Vinci Rivera Group was no longer the fair and competitive environment it used to be.
Given Sophia's qualifications and experience, she would never have met the Vinci Rivera Group's standards. Yet, she managed to join the company and take on such an important position, all because the Jewell family and the Kane family were related by marriage and the Vinci Rivera Group gave her special treatment.
Some even went so far as to bring up a lawsuit that the Vinci Rivera Group had with an intern last year to question the company's hiring standards. Clearly, the information was deliberately used to smear the Vinci Rivera Group during this wave of attention.
While the Vinci Rivera Group did have some internal referrals, they were very rare. Even if that person was a shareholder, if they were not capable enough, they only had the right to dividends and could not hold important positions in the Vinci Rivera Group.
