Chapter 620 Intense Argument On The Web
Amelia looked at Tiffany. She was worried about her a moment ago, but now, she began to laugh.
“Tiff, did you assume that my heart is too healthy and decided to scare me?” Amelia approached Tiffany and could not stop laughing.
Tiffany looked down at her new get-up and found it funny too.
“Let’s get in the car first before we speak further. I want to go home to take a bath before having a meal. I’m famished.” Tiffany patted her belly with a pitiful expression.
Amelia asked, “Can you walk?”
“Yes.” Tiffany dashed off and was first to get into the car.
Jolin and Amelia entered the driver’s seat and the backseat respectively. Then, Jolin started the car.
Meanwhile, Amelia got up and took a bag from the front seat. “These are the clothes we bought on the way here. We thought they might be useful for you in this run-down neighborhood. However, we didn’t expect you to actually need them.”
Tiffany accepted the clothes and raised her thumb. “Babe, our thoughts are in sync. If I were a man, I would not hesitate to marry you.”
“Stop talking nonsense. You should change into these clothes and shoes quickly and throw away the dirty ones,” Amelia said helplessly.
Tiffany quickly changed into the new clothes and shoes in the car. Then, she tried to push her luck and asked, “Babe, do you have any food?”
“No.” Amelia denied immediately. “Can you tell us why you are here?”
“It’s all thanks to those dastard reporters. I don’t know how they found my address and gathered at my place in the early morning. Initially, I planned to go to the company. However, they forced me to drive my car to somewhere near here. My car ran out of gas, so I had no choice but to get out. However, those reporters kept following me like bandits. Then, I fell into a large pit while running away from them. Thankfully, I managed to shake them off with my wit.” Tiffany growled and continued indignantly, “You have no idea how much I’ve suffered. Those lunatics kept chasing after me for hours. I didn’t even dare to answer your call just now. What did I ever do to them to deserve this?”
Amelia’s expression turned solemn as she fell into deep thought.
“Tiff, although you are a famous author, you have always guarded your privacy. Therefore, the reporters can’t find your address unless someone leaked it deliberately. Aren’t you worried that someone is planning to harm you?” Amelia said solemnly.
“Babe, what are you getting at?” Tiffany asked.
Amelia continued grimly, “I think someone could have planned this plagiarism scandal for some time. I have just been to your company, and numerous reporters and newscasters were crowding there. I think someone wanted to drag you and Derrick’s company into trouble.”
Tiffany shrugged and said, “Other than the Hissons, I can’t think of anyone who would want to get me in trouble. Only Mrs. Hisson could be that vicious. I think she would even dare to damage her son’s business to make me leave him. I’m quite impressed, to be honest.”
“There’s no use grumbling about it. I think you need to organize a press conference to clear the scandal. Otherwise, I fear it would get worst to the point that the public would believe that you plagiarized your work even if you didn’t,” Amelia said.
“Let me have some food and sleep first. I need to recharge my energy before fighting Mrs. Hisson,” Tiffany replied.
Amelia nodded.
Soon, Jolin sent them back to Tiffany’s neighborhood. The three of them rode an elevator upstairs and entered the apartment. Amelia said, “I’ll make you some pasta.”
“Babe, thank you,” Tiffany replied.
Then, Amelia entered the kitchen and cooked a plate of pasta. Tiffany soon devoured everything.
After that, Amelia let Jolin wash the plates in the kitchen while Amelia showed Tiffany her phone.
“Tiff, the news accusing you of plagiarism is now trending on Twitter. It seems the mastermind is determined to ruin your name. The number of searches on this topic exceeded a million in a mere couple of hours. The mastermind must have pulled the strings behind the scenes,” Amelia explained.
Tiffany glanced at the screen and sneered, “I didn’t expect a novelist like me to be more famous than the hottest celebrities. Celebrities tried every means possible but couldn’t make it to the headlines. On the other hand, I got there without doing anything. These articles do not have any basis or proof. Yet, many people still believe them. I’m impressed with the netizens’ immaturity. They have no idea that their malicious comments could drive people to take their lives. Of course, I won’t end my life.”
Amelia was impressed with Tiffany’s positivity and ability to joke even in such a dire situation.
“Fine, let’s not be angry over it anymore. I will ask Jolin to investigate the origin of the ID used to publish the post feed.” After saying that, Amelia turned to Jolin as she came out of the kitchen. “Jolin, can you get Tiff’s computer from the bedroom and investigate the source of the ID?”
Jolin nodded.
Then, she brought out the computer and used her superb skills to investigate the source of the ID. It took her nearly an hour to find it.
“Mrs. Clinton, the creator of this ID used a fake ID card. They probably sent it from an internet cafe. I have traced it to a bar called Blue Light. Should we go there?” Jolin looked up from the computer at Amelia.
“Is it far from here?” Amelia asked.
