Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 264

Chapter 264

Hamilton was a man of action. By the evening, a video clearing the air was already making rounds online.

And, just as it hit the web, it was like wildfire - shared and commented on by major influencers.

The tide of public opinion, previously one-sided, flipped almost instantly.

What Natalia hadn't expected was Hamilton dragging Patrick into the limelight.

Patrick, the mastermind behind the scenes, quickly became the target of online vitriol.

Following that, the lid was blown off the dealings Patrick had with bribing employees from Ron Group for their bids.

One by one, financial discrepancies and tax issues within Schafer Pharma were laid bare for all to see.

Hamilton had backed Patrick into a corner this time.

Patrick, face ashen, scrolled through the explosive headlines.

A chill climbed up his spine.

He had a sinking feeling that this might truly be the end for him.

He frantically made calls, but no one on the other end seemed willing to pick up.

In a fit of rage, Patrick hurled his phone onto the couch.

Lucinda Lynd, just recently released from detention, still sported bruises on her face.

"Is this mess because of that witch Natalia again?" Patrick's face was a stormy shade of blue.

"Who else but her!" Lucinda's eyes reddened with fury, "I heard Eveleen tried to take her life a few days ago, now bound to a wheelchair, and Hamilton didn't even bother to visit. It's all because of Natalia. Our family is being tormented to death by that witch!" Mentioning this only added to Patrick's frustration.

"But Hamilton's got her back so fiercely, what can I possibly do? I've thought of everything!"

Lucinda burst into tears.

"Patrick, no matter what, you can't let the company fall apart, and you can't just abandon Eveleen overseas!"

Patrick, tormented by her sobbing, snapped, "Can you please stop crying!"

Lucinda froze, "You're yelling at me? Patrick, you're useless. Is yelling at me all you can do?"

With that, she lunged at Patrick, scratching his face.
