The Colons were busy trying to help Tilda.
Over on Jude’s side, the news reached him, too.
He read through the trending search, and his eyes turned sharp with fury. “Who did this?”
“There are too many media outlets and bots pushing it all at once,” Vassal reported nervously.
“It’s messy and hard to trace who planned everything. But Boss … the other side clearly came prepared.
“The so–called ‘evidence‘ is too polished. What should we do now?”
Vassal knew exactly how much Tilda meant to Jude.
Tilda wasn’t just important–she was the only woman Jude had ever loved.
And someone dared to smear his future wife?
The person behind this must not value their own life.
After a moment of thought, Jude ordered, “Start damage control right away. Don’t let this spiral out of control.”
“Sure thing!” Vassal rushed off.
Just then, Jude’s phone buzzed.
It was the small WhatsApp group he shared with Alfie and Maurice.
Alfie tagged him. “I saw the trending search. I’ve already told Woodward Group’s PR team to get on it.”
Maurice added. “Same here. I’ve sent out orders, too. I don’t believe Tilda’s that kind of person, but damn… the evidence looks convincing. Even with PR, it’s hard to shut down the rumors. The competition officials will hear about it for sure.”
The main issue was X. X’s style really did look a lot like Tilda’s.
If that wasn’t cleared up, no amount of PR would fix things.
The problem had already blown up, and too many people had seen it.
Jude replied. “Tilda isn’t dumb. She knew someone would try to smear her.”
Alfie asked. “Wait … you mean Tilda saw this coming?”
Maurice swore. “No way. She knew and still let it explode like this? Don’t tell me she’s got some hidden trick
Jude reassured them. “Just wait. Tilda is the woman I love. I trust her completely.”
up
her sleeve.”
Damn.
Both Alfie and Maurice cursed silently in their hearts.
Yes, Jude, we know she’s your future wife.
But do you have to rub it in like this?
Showing off your love to two single guys–what’s the point?
Meanwhile, at Lab Seven, Dane had even set aside his projects for once.
He and Manfred sat together watching the livestream of the International College Art Competition.
Manfred’s brow was furrowed.
