Chapter 35

Jordan received the news right away that Irene was being attacked online. He immediately asked the public relations team to delete the nasty posts and freeze the trolls' accounts. However, the attack still made a huge impact. People demanded a direct answer from Irene. David suggested that Irene could offer an explanation. But Jordan shook his head and said even he couldn't stand this kind of vicious smear, let alone a woman like Irene. "It's better to keep Irene out of this and deal with it on our own for now."

Jordan called Kinsey, who certainly knew about these comments as well. She was having a meeting with the public relations team of the TV station, discussing how to deal with the aftermath.

During her call with Jordan, she was so indignant that she told him how Irene was abused by a ruthless mother-in-law, how her husband had an affair and impregnated his mistress, and how she was kicked out of the house with nothing. Jordan was astonished since he never

dreamed that Irene would be bullied like this. Infuriated, he asked Kinsey for the names of the evil mother-in-law and the worthless husband.

Kinsey naturally refused. So Jordan had to give up. Nevertheless, he already had an idea of restoring Irene's reputation. On the same day, a post that clarified on Irene's behalf appeared on the internet.

The post was expressive and emotional, detailing how Irene was bullied by the evil mother-in-law, hurt by her cheating husband, and kicked out of the family without a penny.

Not only did Jordan help Irene tell the whole story, but he also ordered people to find Irene's attackers and sued them.

The websites that reposted the nasty posts about Irene received a summons from the court. The major websites and forums didn't dare to compete with Jordan. One after another, they deleted the previous attack posts and published apology statements, explaining that the posts that had been issued before were hearsay without real evidence.

The situation was reversed all of a sudden. The trolls who started the attack were scared of the police and went into hiding. Lily's plan officially failed.

The table had turned. People were furious about how Irene was treated in the past. Women, in particular, railed against the evil mother-in-law, the sh*tty husband, and the shameless homewrecker.

The public backlash surpassed what Irene went through before. Despite her thick skin, Lily became so angry upon reading the comments that she couldn't eat.

Deborah comforted her daughter, "You need to be able to move on. We will think of another way."

Lily was also tough like a cockroach. After feeling dispirited for a day, she came up with another idea.
