My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 171

With how advanced the technology was, anything posted on the internet would spread throughout Ucrebury in an instant.

I didn't head back to the villa as Minnie called and said that there were a lot of reporters outside the villa. She advised me to not head back.

Fortunately, not many people know about Bronzy Condo, so I could still stay there for the time being.

I still couldn't get in touch with Hendrix. Sawyer called and told me that he was still in the ICU and that he didn't know much about the details.

As expected, the Roberts Group's stock prices plummeted within two days. Some shareholders even attempted suicide because of that.

Evan held a press conference to appease the public. The Roberts Group had also stopped their operations as the Industrial and Commercial Bureau investigated it.

Monique would stop by the Roberts Building every day after her grocery shopping. And she would always tell me the situation once she got back home.

I still couldn't figure out a lot of things, but it was impossible to return to the company, so I could only wait for things to die down.
