Chapter: 309
Just as the assistant was about to leave, Marcia called out again.
"Wait!"
"What is it, Marcia?"
"Include the photo of Kaitlin and Denton. Upload it as well and suggest that Kaitlin is playing both sides. She won't clear things up with her ex-husband and gets involved with another rich man."
The assistant hesitated, taken aback. “Marcia, that's Mr. Gilbert. Are you sure about this?"
“Just do as I say. Don't talk nonsense." Marcia rolled her eyes, clearly annoyed.
The assistant didn't attempt to argue further and simply agreed.
"Do this job well, and I'll give you a bonus this month. Make sure you keep it a secret and don't tell anyone!"
"Understood, Marcia." The assistant nodded and left the office, letting out a heavy sigh.
If her mother weren't seriously ill and desperately in need of funds, she wouldn't have kept helping Marcia engage in such unethical activities.
She had been enduring Marcia's harsh treatment. But what truly worried her was Marcia's boldness in involving Denton.
If they were caught, she knew she would be the first to be let go.
After some contemplation, the promise of a bonus swayed her decision.
She proceeded to maliciously edit the video and then sent it to a paparazzo, with a cautionary note attached.
"Make sure to obscure their faces. And don't let anyone trace this back to you."
She then expertly transferred the payment to the paparazzo.
The scandal broke out at midnight. By then, most people, aside from a few boring netizens, were asleep.
The faces of Denton and Alan were obscured in the posts, as no one dared cross them.
The focus of the smear campaign was Kaitlin, attracting numerous online gossipers who eagerly tarnished her reputation.
"Look at her, managing to attract men even while pregnant."
"Why hide the men's faces? Clearly, they're Mr. Hewitt and Mr. Brooks."
"An ex-husband and a boyfriend together? Really? Wow, Kaitlin, you're really fortunate!"
“Didn't you see the headline that she's juggling two relationships? Can't you read? Did you even finish elementary school?"
Ernesto was jolted awake by a call from his assistant, who said urgently, "Mr. Collins, wake up. There's trouble with Ms. Gilbert. The video and photos from yesterday's interview have been leaked. She's now trending for all the wrong reasons! They're claiming that Ms. Gilbert was acting arrogant during the interview, and they're also accusing her of juggling two relationships at once."
