After looking at the mobile for a while, Eden smiled. She lifted her bright eyes and looked at the partner who were glaring at her.
Finally, her eyes fell on Paulina's self-satisfied face.
"Miss Clark, do you believe it?" Eden smiled, and her tone was very calm.
Irene, Amelia, and Cicely looked at Eden's bright smile in surprise.
They were puzzled by Eden's reaction.
Why was she still smiling?
Paulina's eyes flashed with a trace of viciousness. She took a few steps forward, shook her wavy hair slightly, and curled up her red lips into a sneer, "Where there's smoke there's fire. It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. It is the truth."
"The truth?" Eden said lightly.
Loomis was standing beside Eden, and his narrow eyes suddenly gleamed with interest.
It was rare to see a person able to keep calm in the face of such negative publicity.
Paulina noticed everyone else was enjoying the show silently, so she slowly said, "Director Bleu, I know I have no right to judge your private life, but you should have been more discreet. As a senior executive of a company, you are really disappointing. Public image is very important for an enterprise."
"So?" Eden sneered and cast a weird look at her.
She hadn't expected Paulina to have the cheek to criticize other people's private life.
Looking at Eden's strange smile and clear eyes, Paulina suddenly felt somehow embarrassed.
She couldn't help but think of the moment when she had thrown herself at Victor.
Now, looking at Eden's expression, she felt as if Eden had slapped her in the face.
Seeing Eden unfazed at all, Paulina squinted slightly. She was wondering how long Eden could endure.
One woman could not help but say, "Director Bleu, it is said you are fooling around with married men. How could you do such things? As a woman, I don't want to cooperate with a person like you." She looked at Eden with disdain and disgust.
After she spoke, the others also started to talk.
"Director Bleu, there used to be a lot of rumors about you on the Internet, but you have never clarified them formally. If you are really such a person, your products will be unmarketable"
"Yes, it's the Internet era now. This kind of news can even be conveyed to the villages in the mountains. We can't resell your products unless your rumors are clarified..."
More and more opinions were uttered, but Eden stood in situ quietly, waiting for them to finish.
On the 25th floor.
While Lucian was sorting out the contracts, one manager on the 11th floor came for him and told him everything.
Lucian had been busy the whole morning, so he did not have the time to read today's news.
After the manager left, Lucian immediately checked it online, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
It was not until this morning that the rumors had come out. Obviously, they were well-prepared.
Lucian sneered. He hadn't expected them to provoke Victor in this way. They were courting death.
Just as Lucian was about to report this to Victor, a message suddenly popped up on his phone.
It was a voice message from Kenny. Lucian clicked on it and listened.
''Uncle Lucian, the IP address is in the Jotham Alwynn Group."
As soon as Lucian heard it, he knew that Kenny had already known everything.
He texted Kenny back, asking, "Kenny, what are you going to do?"
Kenny said, "I won't allow anyone to bully my mom. Wait and see."
He cast a sidelong glance at Victor, who was fuming with fury. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and his long and slender fingers were moving swiftly on the keyboard.
After a while, the real-time monitoring image on the 11th floor was shown on Victor's computer screen.
"Come here," Lucian said in a low voice.
Victor looked down at him from the side and wanted to tease Lucian. But when he saw that Eden was being surrounded by a group of people, he instantly got nervous.
Victor stared at the screen.
He then said, "Let's go down there."
Lucian said, "Calm down. Eden can handle this herself. Someone is spreading rumors online today to prevent the partners from signing contracts with us."
Lucian looked up at Victor with a wicked smile, asking, "Eden went to the hotel with different men during the trade fair. Where were you then?"
Victor's expression became terrified. He asked, "Who said that?"
Lucian, "This is what is spreading online."
"Bullsh*t!" Victor swore, "she was sleeping next to me every night."
Victor picked up his mobile from his desk quickly and took a quick look. Looking at the news titles and pictures, Victor was almost out of control.
"Who did it?" Victor threw his phone on the desk heavily.
Lucian looked at the computer screen and said, "The Jotham Alwynn Group, but your son has already been dealing with it. As a father, you're useless.”
But he had to admit Victor was a man of admirable luck.
He had three lovely children, and all of them were smart. How could people not envy him?
"You..." Victor's eyes were red with anger.
