Chapter 91: The Boss Speaks

Brayden was eloquently discussing his strategy when his phone vibrated twice. Casually picking it up, he saw it was a notification from a social media app. Opening it, he froze in place, utterly stunned.

 

"No way!" Brayden exclaimed.

 

It turned out that before he could finish his plan, the problem had already been resolved.

 

Brayden was shocked, and so was everyone else.

 

Nolan, who had never posted on social media, suddenly made a post on his private account, causing a stir among the business elite.

 

The internal WeChat group of FX Venture Capital employees exploded with activity.

 

Anonymous A: [Big news! Big news! Mr. Feng posted on social media!]

 

They attached a screenshot of the post.

 

Anonymous B: [Mr. Feng has a social media account? How come I didn't know? Have I not been here long enough?]

 

Anonymous C: [Three-year newbie here, never knew Mr. Feng had social media.]

 

Anonymous D: [Six-year veteran here, this is the second time I've seen it. Am I lucky or what?]

 

Anonymous E: [Hey, shouldn't the focus be on the content of Mr. Feng's post?]

 

Anonymous A: [Haha, the others are just too shocked that Mr. Feng even has social media.]

 

At a filming site in Shanghai, Owen's assistant rushed over excitedly.

 

"Owen, on social media..."

 

"Is there another issue with Zuri?" Owen asked instinctively, quickly grabbing the phone from his assistant.

 

The assistant finally managed to complete his sentence, "Mr. Feng posted on social media."

 

Owen was puzzled. "So what if my brother posted on social media? It's not a big deal. You nearly gave me a heart attack."

 

Owen grumbled under his breath.

 

The assistant felt exasperated.

 

Isn't it shocking enough that the legendary Nolan Feng posted on social media? You should see how many business leaders are reposting and reacting to his post!

 

The assistant snapped out of his thoughts and quickly corrected, "Owen, wait. What I meant is that Mr. Feng posted to diss the rumor mongers and indirectly defend Zuri."

 

"What?!"

 

Owen quickly grabbed the phone back and checked the social media post.

 

"Holy crap!"

 

The assistant silently noted that Owen was swearing more frequently these days.

 

Seeing Owen's fingers moving rapidly on the phone, the assistant grew cautious and peeked at the screen, then quickly intervened, "Brother, you can't post on social media. Ming instructed that you shouldn't post randomly."

 

Owen ignored him.

 

My social media, my rules.

 

Owen attempted to log in, but then...

 

"When did you change my password?" Owen glared at the assistant.

 

The assistant shrank back. "Ming changed it. He's the only one who knows the new password."

 

Meaning, if you want to post, you need to get the password from him.

 

At the Lin family home, Zuri held her phone, staring at the post that had quickly become a top headline. It was about her.

 

Nolan: [Not speaking doesn't mean being ungrateful. Crying doesn't mean you're righteous. Believing in a misleading video is ridiculous. Coincidentally, I witnessed a fable of the farmer and the snake, and now a tale of an ingrate. Truly spectacular!]

 

Zuri stared at the social media username, lost in thought.

 

"Nolan?"

 

Could it be that Nolan?

 

Last month, she had somehow gotten on his bad side, yet here he was, helping to clear her name. This…

 

Zuri felt a bit guilty.

 

She remembered the two distinguished figures from the surveillance video; one of them turned out to be the famous Nolan.

 

Aaron burst into the room, his face lit with excitement, devoid of any anger.

 

"Zuri, you're such a good daughter."

 

She had managed to convince Nolan to speak up for her.

 

Aaron was thrilled. If it weren't for a senior executive congratulating him today, he wouldn't have known that Nolan publicly defended his daughter. Even more satisfying was the fact that so many prominent business leaders followed suit, causing the Lin family's stock to rise by two percent instead of falling.

 

This was the advantage of associating with major families and wealthy individuals.

 

Aaron's eyes sparkled with joy as he appraised his daughter, growing more satisfied with every glance.

 

His daughter was so beautiful, a perfect match for the Feng family heir.

 

Zuri coldly watched the man in front of her, who had completely changed his attitude. Just yesterday, he wished he could strangle her to avoid implicating the Lin Group. Today, she was his "good daughter."

 

To him, everything was about profit.

 

In her previous life, she couldn't bring him or the Lin family any benefits. Instead, she brought shame and controversy, leading to his indifference towards her and his favoring of Saira, even over his biological daughter.

 

Even knowing someone had an interest in her, he pushed her towards a sadistic, psychopathic man, for the sake of profit, leading her into a life of torment.

 

Recalling the inhuman life in that dark basement, hatred surged through her like a geyser, filling her heart and bloodshot eyes.

 

A murderous intent brewed within her, spreading and fermenting.

 

Aaron, excited, suddenly felt a chill and instinctively hugged his arms. Seeing Zuri's dark expression, he cleared his throat, "Zuri, I was too hasty yesterday and said some harsh words. I didn't mean them. Don't take it to heart. Look, I brought you something."

 

Aaron placed a gift box in front of her, opening it gently to reveal a dazzling diamond necklace.

 

"Do you like it? I had it specially brought in from abroad. It's the latest LB model, not yet available in the country."

 

The dazzling light reflected in her eyes brought her back to her senses. Suppressing her hatred, she said coldly, "If there's nothing else, please leave. I'm very tired."

 

Aaron noticed her displeasure but dared not say more.

 

She was now a little princess who needed to be handled with care.

 

After Aaron left, Zuri took several deep breaths to calm her anger and hatred.

 

She picked up her phone and called Brayden. The phone rang three times before he answered.

 

"Hello, this is Zuri."

 

Hearing the clear, pleasant voice of the young girl, Brayden's lips curved into a smile. He was quite curious about this girl.

 

A girl who could make Nolan speak up and who Owen cared about deeply—what was her magic?

Chapter 92: Suing the Offenders

"Hello, Miss Lin. I thought you wouldn't need my services anymore."

 

After all, Nolan had stepped in, and with just a simple statement, he had turned the tide of public opinion. Along with a group of influential figures amplifying his message, the business and entertainment sections were completely dominated by the news.

 

The narrative was already changing, and soon, Zuri would be vindicated, while the Liu family would face their downfall.

 

With the situation seemingly resolved, Brayden didn't expect her to contact him now. This was intriguing.

 

"Of course, I need your help!" Zuri didn't waste words, getting straight to the point. "I need you to help me file some lawsuits. I want to sue Li Le and Zhao Qianhong for defamation and libel. Also, I want to sue the Liu family for extortion and threats. I'll send all the evidence to your email."

 

"Certainly."

 

Ten minutes later, Brayden reviewed the evidence she provided, and couldn't help but marvel.

 

Is this really a nineteen-year-old girl?

 

Even if Nolan hadn't intervened, she could have cleared her name on her own and made those people pay dearly.

 

This case was too simple; he could win it with his eyes closed. It was hardly challenging.

 

If this client weren't recommended by Owen, he wouldn't have accepted it at all.

 

Zuri logged into the social media app and spent half an hour registering an account. Due to the time required for verification and not wanting to wait, she called Azura, and quickly got the verification done.

 

ZuriV: [All evidence has been submitted to the judiciary. You'll be receiving a lawyer's letter soon. @Li LeV @Zhao QianhongV]

 

ZuriV: [To all the netizens, I hope you don't encounter a "Farmer and the Snake" story in real life. Having money doesn't mean I have to tolerate everything. Being poor doesn't give you the right to be unreasonable. Lawyer's letters are on the way, and you know what crimes you've committed. @RheaV]

 

This social media post didn't attract much attention initially, since it was from a new account.

 

But then, the official Weibo accounts of FX Venture Capital, YS Group, Lin Group, and Lan Group all reposted it.

 

In Oceanic City, the senior executives of Ling Group looked towards Javier.

 

"President Ling, Lan Group has reposted it. Should we?"

 

Javier thought for a moment. "Repost it."

 

It was a simple gesture and could earn them some favor with the Lin family. Truth be told, it was more about respecting YS and FX.

 

Li Family Group

 

"President Li, Lan Group and Ling Group have reposted it. Should we repost it too?"

 

President Li glared at his subordinate. "If they've all reposted, and you don't, are you waiting to be kicked out of the circle? Repost it, immediately."

 

"Yes, yes." The subordinate hurried off to handle it.

 

Zhang Group

 

"Chairman Zhang, the second daughter of the Lin family made a statement, and YS and FX's official accounts reposted it. Lan Group, Ling Group, and Li Family all followed. Should we?"

 

Chairman Zhang cursed inwardly. These old foxes were fast.

 

"Repost! We need to support our old friends."

 

Meanwhile, other enterprises and companies, anyone with connections to YS Group or FX Group, or even other major groups, seeing everyone else repost, dared not hesitate. They all followed suit, causing a flurry of reposts.

 

This avalanche of support made Zuri's social media explode, catapulting her post to the top of the headlines.

 

Returning from a workout, Zuri turned on her phone, and the flood of notifications made it freeze.

 

Zuri stared blankly at her frozen phone, knocking it a few times and muttering, "It's a new phone. Why is it lagging? Such poor quality!"

 

After a while of knocking, it still wouldn't budge.

 

Zuri, frustrated, tossed the phone onto her bed and ignored it.

 

As she was applying moisturizer, a series of chimes erupted, like fireworks, endlessly ringing.

 

What's going on?!

 

Zuri picked up her phone, bewildered, and saw an avalanche of notifications and private messages flooding her social media account, leaving her stunned.

 

Who am I?

Where am I?

What did I do?

 

Zuri's mind was filled with questions.

 

Had her new account stirred up something monumental?

 

After the notifications finally stopped and her phone ceased lagging, she opened the app to see numerous official accounts tagging her.

 

What's happening?!!

 

Zuri, in disbelief and shock, felt unsteady.

 

Not just Zuri, even the spectators were stunned.

 

The official accounts of various companies and groups were reposting her message like a trend, making the onlookers dizzy with astonishment.

 

The bystanders were completely thrown off!

 

[Wow! Did Miss Lin stir up the corporate world?]

 

[Who is this second Miss Lin, with so many groups backing her?]

 

[This drama has been gripping, but I'm most curious about the second Miss Lin herself.]

 

[She must be a real-life heiress, with so many moguls supporting her.]

 

[But without evidence, it's hard to convince everyone. Courts are tricky.]

 

[The comment above is too cynical. If she's speaking out, she must have proof. From what I know, Nolan has a reliable reputation and wouldn't make baseless claims.]

 

[Exactly. The Lin family might be a notable company in Oceanic City, but not enough to make these people cover up for her at the cost of their own reputations.]

 

[That's debatable. The business world is dark, who knows what secrets lie beneath?]

 

Supporters of Zuri and skeptics filled the comments.

 

Hospital

 

Rhea's family also saw the news and Zuri's social media post, along with the numerous reposts by companies and business figures.

 

Mrs. Liu panicked. "That brat Zuri is suing us. What do we do?"

 

Luis, unfazed, said dismissively, "What's there to be afraid of? She's just trying to scare us. If she had real evidence, she'd have made it public. Posting on social media is just PR."

 

Mrs. Liu didn't understand social media or PR, but since her son was so confident, she believed him.

 

Rhea frowned. "We shouldn't delay. I'll call the person in charge at the Lin family and get the money as soon as possible."

 

"Make sure to get the full five million," Mrs. Liu reminded.

 

Rhea was annoyed but said nothing.

 

They needed to get as much as they could now.

 

She regretted not agreeing when they first offered a million.

 

Half an hour later, Rhea returned empty-handed.

 

"How did it go? Did they agree? If not, we can settle for four million," Mrs. Liu said naively.

 

Rhea pushed her away irritably and sat on a nearby bench.

 

"Four million? They won't give us a single penny now."

 

Mrs. Liu was at a loss. "If they won't pay, what do we do?"

 

Luis, with a vicious look, said, "Release the video and recording publicly."
