Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 453

After ending the video call, Cain saw a message on his phone with a link to the trending news about Wendy. Only then did he realize she was in trouble.

There were even netizens organizing to protest outside the company.

This was no longer just Wendy's personal problem; it was now seriously affecting the company.

Cain sat in his office, his brow furrowed.

He had just finished reading the flood of news about Wendy online. The malicious speculation and accusations left him bewildered.

Wendy had worked by his side for years. She was diligent, responsible, sincere, and down-to-earth. How could she suddenly be caught in such a whirlwind of public opinion?

He didn't believe what was being said online. He had chosen Wendy himself, and he trusted his judgment.

Just as he was about to call Wendy into his office to get to the bottom of it, his assistant knocked and entered hurriedly.

His assistant's face was grim as he handed Cain a printed letter.

Cain took the letter and read it carefully.

It was an anonymous tip, accusing Wendy of leaking important company trade secrets to a competitor. Attached was a screenshot as evidence.

Cain's expression grew darker.

He pressed a button on his desk phone, his voice betraying no emotion. "Ms. Clifford, please come to my office."

When Wendy entered the office and saw the deep, somber look in Cain's eyes, she knew he already knew.

It made sense. The whole company knew by now. Even if her boss hadn't seen the news, other colleagues would have told him. After all, her personal affairs were now affecting the company.

Before Cain could ask, Wendy spoke up.

"Mr. Page, I'm sorry. I'll handle this as soon as possible. I... I'll go take care of it right now."

"How do you plan to solve it? If you can't come up with an effective solution today, the company's stock price will be affected, and..."

She was ready to fight back. This time, she would not compromise. If her parents wanted to destroy her, then it was war. If she was going down, she would take them with her.

She returned to her desk. The online outcry was escalating.

Major influencers, hungry for traffic, kept reposting Mrs. Clifford's video, adding their own inflammatory commentary.

Netizens vented their emotions in the comments section, spewing all sorts of vicious words. Some had even found her social media accounts and were flooding them with insults and threats.

At this point, posting a video to clear her name wasn't going to be enough. She needed not only to provide evidence but also to take legal action against those who had slandered her.

Just then, Wendy's phone rang. It was an unknown number.

She hesitated for a moment before answering.

A man's unfamiliar voice came from the other end. "Hello, Miss Clifford. I'm a reporter from The Harbor Post. I'd like to interview you about your current situation. Is there anything you'd like to say?"
