Before Kai could break out into a cursing fit, Floyd frowned and looked at Clayton.
"As soon as Lil N was involved, we got people to investigate and handle this problem. Your power in Mediania isn't so deep yet. How can you be sure that it'll be gone first thing tomorrow?"
As a businessman, especially a shrewd old businessman, Floyd was always suspicious of any slight possibility.
Could Eric do this according to his attitude toward Nicole?
Floyd seriously suspected that Clayton was lying.
Clayton's eyes were serious, warm, and sincere, without the slightest hint of anger or dissimulation on his face.
"I don't have many connections at home, but I do have some strength overseas. One of the major shareholders of this media platform settled abroad and has a close relationship with me. He was the one who told me of this news. Ferguson Corporation got them to seal this information, but even so, it's not confidential to their management."
Floyd’s face sank fiercely. "Eric Ferguson, that son of a b*tch!"
Clayton faintly lowered his eyes. "I have communicated with their senior management. This matter isn't just about me, but also about the Stanton family's reputation, so after 10:00 pm tonight, they will restrict traffic and it'll disappear by tomorrow."
He should have reacted earlier. That way, Ferguson Corporation would not get the second opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
The second time the trending topic resurfaced, it hurt more than just Clayton.
It was too great a cost.
Floyd's face was red from anger. After Kai came out of his shock, he did not speak. His face was sullen.
They had both overestimated Eric's character.
On second thought, it also made sense. If Eric could hurt Nicole like that back then, how good could his character be?
Among them, Nicole was the calmest.
This made Clayton feel somewhat uneasy.
He pursed his lips. "Nicole, I solemnly apologize to you regarding today’s matter."
