"No, she didn't. It was..." The troll leader hesitated.
Makenna was impatient. "Tell me. Who did it?"
"Your ex-fiancé did," the troll leader closed his eyes and answered aloud.
Makenna was taken aback.
It was Jared!
Makenna gripped her cell phone tightly as if she was about to crush it.
After a few seconds, she took a deep breath and calmed down. "How's the situation online now?"
"Amber Reed's news couldn't be seen at all. The posts reposted by KOLs were forcibly deleted. Your status was still there, but it couldn't attract any attention anymore."
Speaking of it, the troll leader heaved a sigh.
Sure enough, being rich was so good. Money could operate the whole Internet.
Makenna's hand pinching her phone trembled. She was curious. "If I want to hype them up again, how much do I need?"
"Over six million dollars," the troll leader gave her an answer after quick math.
"Six million dollars?" Makenna raised her voice, looking extremely angry. "Why don't you rob the bank?"
The roll leader smiled bitterly. "Ms. Gardner, I didn't lie. You do need that much, as Mr. Farrell has spent over six million dollars suppressing the news. If you want to hype it up, you have to spend more. Otherwise, it'll be useless."
Makenna was so angry that she couldn't utter a beep.
Where was she able to find six million dollars?
Although the Gardner family was wealthy, her monthly allowance was only two hundred thousand dollars. She would spend it all at the beginning of each month because she bought new arrivals of luxury handbags and shoes every month. After spending it all, she used Jared's money.
However, her engagement with Jared had been canceled. Before she woke up, Jared had already frozen all her credit cards, so she couldn't use his money anymore. She used her savings to hire the trolls and KOLs to hype up the news this time. She had almost spent all her savings.
She couldn't afford another six million dollars.
She also dared not to ask her father for it. The Trident Group had lost all its cooperation with The Farrell Group, and its capital chain had been broken. Her father wouldn't give her so much money to hype up the news.
Thinking of that, Makenna bit her lower lip and had an idea. Curling up her lips into an evil smile, she said, "Spread the news. I'll hold a live broadcast. Tell them I'll tell them how I was set up by Amber Reed in detail."
The troll leader's eyes lit up. "That's a brilliant idea. No one will be able to suppress it. Once it's suppressed, it'll prove Amber Reed has done it to you. Otherwise, why will she be afraid of your live broadcast? I'll do it now, Ms. Gardner."
"Go ahead." Makenna sneered.
At Goldstone Co.
A Maybach was parked nearby.
The rear window had been pressed. Jared frowned at the reporters outside the entrance. They all wanted to break in, quite noisy.
The security guards of Goldstone stood in a line, trying their best to stop the reporters.
However, those reporters were way too crazy. The more security guards stopped them, the harder they pushed.
Seeing that the security guards would not stop them, Jared picked up his phone. "Go help them and send those reporters away."
"Yes, Mr. Farrell," a rough low voice answered on the other end of the line.
The next second, right after Jared put down his phone, several modified cars bypassed his Maybach and stopped at the entrance of Goldstone.
The car doors were opened. Almost twenty men in black got down.
They were all above five feet nine with a stern and expressionless look. They had muscled shapes, looking quite tough.
All of them were professional bodyguards working for The Farrell Group. Each of them had gone through the strictest training. When they stood there, they emanated aggressive temperaments.
Those noisy reporters quieted down as soon as they saw the bodyguards.
They wondered who those men in black were.
