Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 91

Cornell Group's share price had plummeted because of Jeremiah's incident, and with Eric targeting them, the company was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. If the company truly went bankrupt, Jeremiah would face dire consequences, so there was no need for me to intervene.

Moreover, I was preoccupied with our domestic market launch and had no time to waste on petty vendettas.

I had barely finished speaking when a news notification popped up on my phone, stating, "The CEO of Flint Group and the heiress of Brown Group were spotted setting off fireworks late at night, and the two of them looked suspiciously close to each other…"

I furrowed my brows as I clicked on it. It seemed like someone had secretly taken photos of Eric and me from last night on the mountain, capturing the exact moment when I was hugging him. It was the perfect ammunition for those looking to stir up trouble.

I had merely hugged Eric last night because I was overcome with emotion. I regretted not controlling  myself despite knowing the trouble it would cause 

I took a deep breath and was just about to call Eric when his message came through first. “I’ll deal with the online situation, so you don’t have to worry about it.” 

1 should’ve felt reassured, but instead, I felt ashamed. I was the one who caused this mess, and now, I was shifting all the burden onto him 

I knew I had to act fast, so I contacted Brown Group’s PR department and asked them to take immediate steps to quash the rumors. 

I had just sent the message when Levi walked over and asked, “Didn’t you hear what I said just now, Jane? What’s keeping you so busy. huh? Why are you so distracted right now?”
