Capítulo 36: Growing Tension

Here's a paraphrased version of your text:

Meanwhile, Adam tried repeatedly to stop the growing scandal surrounding him, but each effort failed. He even called as many people as possible, but it was to no avail. Finally, he was forced to make a statement online, which only fueled the controversy.

"The Crawfords will not tolerate such defamation and will not spare anyone who dares tarnish our name."

His brief statement quickly gained traction, and responses flooded in.

ANONYMOUSEUSER: "Sounds like a desperate move to me—"

CUTESYQUEEN: "Definitely desperate, lol—"

PEOPLE'S VOICE: "Which Crawford would do something like this—"

JUSTPASSING: "The life of the rich... exciting—"

BYSTANDER: "I feel sorry for his fiancée."
