Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 435

Felix swallowed hard and turned the laptop screen toward them. “Nemesis Group Inc. has made its move.”

On the screen was a shocking sea of red.

The stock prices for the Clarke family’s companies, Graceline Technologies, and even several publicly traded companies with deep ties to the Clarkes had all plummeted within half an hour of the market opening.

“It’s not just the stock prices.” Felix wiped away sweat, speaking rapidly. “Five minutes ago, a flood of scandalous stories about Madam Grace suddenly exploded across all major social media platforms. And…” He glanced cautiously at Grace, who was leaning against the headboard. “And the trending hashtags are extremely… nasty.”

Grace calmly held out her hand. “Let me see.”

“Grace, don’t look,” Damien said, instinctively trying to stop her.

“Give it to me,” Grace insisted.

After a two-second standoff, Damien handed her the tablet.

The comments section was even more toxic.

[This is terrifying. I heard she turned herself into a monster!]

[No wonder the Hart family didn’t want her. Who would dare take in a monster like that? Who knows if she’ll suddenly go crazy and attack someone?]

[I heard she’s a jinx who caused the deaths of her own mother and grandmother. Now she’s here to bring ruin to Mr. Clarke. What a curse.]

[Boycott the monster! Lock her up and dissect her for research!]

[Someone like her existing is a contamination of the human gene pool. I suggest she be euthanized.]

“Heh.”

As Grace read, she let out a small laugh.

Melissa, who had been standing silently by the window, turned to face her.

Grace opened her eyes. “They want to solidify the accusation that I’m a ‘monster,’ then use ‘crimes against humanity’ as a pretext to legitimately take custody of me, or… dispose of me.”

“Mr. Clarke!” Felix exclaimed. “The company’s firewall is under attack by a state-sponsored hacking group! Our tech department can’t hold them off!”

Damien’s eyes sharpened, and he was about to give an order.

“Let them be,” Grace said calmly.

“What?” Felix was stunned. “Madam, that’s the company’s core proprietary data!”

“Let them take it.” A sarcastic smile touched Grace’s lips. “We’ll give them whatever they want. And not just that. Damien, I need you to do one more thing.”

Damien looked at her. “Name it.”

“I want you to release my genetic map to the public.”
