Chapter 76 Confound Right With Wrong
Chapter 76 Confound Right With Wrong
Julian narrowed his eyes. "No matter what, take the post down now."
Seth nodded. “If we contact the administrators and ask them to delete the post, it might show that we’re guilty of it. So I plan to...hack the entire Ancient Fox platform!"
Julian considered it for a moment. Soon he understood what Seth was up to.
If they contacted the administrators and asked them t o delete the post, it might imply that what the post described was true. The deleted things would seem rather real. Moreover, more posts would emerge once they deleted that particular post.
So it would not be a probable way to resolve the issue a t hand.
But if they hacked the entire platform, the public would think that the platform had offended a certain hacker. However, they would never know which post had offended the hacker. First, they could divert the attention of the public by hacking the platform. On the other hand, they could suppress the spread of the rumors too.
"How long do you need to hack the entire platform?" Julian asked him.
On the other end of the phone, he could hear the sound of someone typing on a keyboard.
"I asked Jacob to help me. We just need another ten minutes or so," Seth replied.
"Jacob?" Julian was shocked. "Does he know how to d o that?"
After a pause, Seth replied calmly, "Yes. He's quite good at it. It's just that he's still slightly weaker than m e."
Julian did not notice his guilt. He said lightly, "You're indeed quite good given that you could gain Jacob's contact information."
"Don't mention it. I designed a chatting app by myself and forced my appearance on his computer. If I didn't say that it was related to Susan, he might not bother about me." Seth sounded gloomy.
Julian raised his eyebrow. "Then I'll hang up now. Try your best to hack the platform as soon as possible.”
"Sure," Seth nodded.
After Julian hung up the phone, he stared at the post. He refreshed the page casually.
There were still no changes for the time being. Julian took up his phone and almost made a call. But still he did not do so at last.
If both Seth and Jacob were fast enough, it would soon be resolved.
In fact, Susie had just come back for work. It was better not to let her worry about it.
In the gossipy group chat of the company, it was heated with discussion as always.
Susan was busy doing her work while taking some free time to take a look at it.
"I was following the updates on a post in Ancient Fox over the weekend. I'm exhausted because of it."
"Are you obsessed with a post in Ancient Fox too? What a coincidence! I almost forgot to eat because of i t."
"How come? Are we reading the same post? It's been a few days now."
Suddenly, the group chat became heated with discussion. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Susan took a look at it. She was only slightly curious, but she did not care much about it.
Soon, someone asked the others what that post was. Then somebody else shared the link of the post in the group.
"This post is long. It’s more than enough for you to digest for the time being. I'll go and check on the new updates." The person provided the link before disappearing into the background.
Susan smiled before continuing with her work.
"Holy crap! Susan?" Suddenly, somebody screamed in the office.
"Hmm?" Susan thought that someone was calling for her, so she turned around.
The person who called her was a female colleague of hers who had a rather good friendship with her.
That female colleague looked at Susan. "Susie, did you read the link I shared in the group this morning?"
"Ho." Susan was puzzled.
Her female colleague said, "Go and take a look quickly."
"Okay," Susan replied and clicked on the link.
She was uninterested in that kind of gossip. She scanned through it quickly.
"Just read it casually. Then go straight to page 566," her female colleague told her.
Susan replied that she would before going straight to the page her colleague had mentioned.
Then she was stunned.
'Lanyard Construction. Susan Shelby!’
That post exposed her name blatantly.
Moreover, the writer even replied to that comment in a rather vague way. It seemed to be implying that Susan was indeed that b*tch.
In the meantime, a lot of people had read the newest update.
All of a sudden, the others started to look at Susan
differently.
The female colleague who was quite close to Susan was still worried about Susan. However, some other people seemed to be mocking at Susan at that moment.
"Susan always seemed like a gentle person. I never thought that she was such a person."
"We never know how people truly are."
"She went after men just like that. How shameless!"
"Certainly, she's a bloody b*tch!"
They started to condemn Susan in the group chat anonymously.
"What are you talking about now? If you dare, say it to her directly. Don't talk about it anonymously in the group chat," Chance stood up and said unhappily.
"How dare you ask us to stop talking about it since she’s daring enough to do such a thing."
"That's true. She was someone else’s infamous mistress before. How dare she act naive and innocent here!"
"Isn't it rumored that Susan is married? If her husband knows that she was once someone else's infamous mistress, I'm not sure if he'll still want her o r not."
"The identity of the man was exposed too. It says here that he’s the new CEO of Jenkins Corporation, Luke
Jenkins." "Isn't his fiancee the rich young lady from the Ainsley family?"
"Yes. They got married recently. No wonder Susan took some time off work a while back. She went and took a break because of a broken heart resulting from unrequited love."
"It's possible."
"Why was she unaware of the fact that both the Jenkins family and the Ainsely family are rich and influential families? By the way, who did she think she was? How dare she have her eyes on Luke!"
"That's why she was abandoned. She did indeed have too high an aim for herself, but her destiny did not portray such a life for her."
There were more anonymous messages now.
Susan bit her lips. She did not know who was condemning her now.
Since she was hired by the company, she had always been kind to everyone. She never offended anybody. However, a rumor like that could make her be ridiculed by the entire staff in the company.
"Susie, are you alright?" Chance looked at her in concern.
Susan paled slightly, but still she shook her head.
"I trust that you're not a person like that." Chance said.
"Really?" Susan looked at him.
Chance broke into a bright smile. "Certainly, if you're really that kind of person, why did you reject me directly? According to their description of you, you would certainly give me a vague answer and enjoy the excitement of being loved and cherished, isn't that right?"
At last, Susan smiled faintly as she realized how Chance trusted her. "Thank you."
"You don't have to thank me." Chance waved his hand. "But how do you plan to deal with these rumors..."
Susan appeared stubborn but persistent. "They’re nothing but rumors. I just want to ask the writer just what right she has to condemn people like that!"
Susan clicked on the post, intending to write a reply.
However, the minute she planned to send the reply, she found that it was nothing but a blank page.
She refreshed it again and again.
It was indeed a blank page.
Susan was stunned. 'Did someone...hack the website?’
