Ella The door to the conference room had clicked shut behind us, muffling the sounds of hushed discussions from inside.

Chapter 110 Anastasia was about to fall asleep when her phone rang again. On the phone, a voice sounded, “Anastasia!” “What’s wrong?” Anastasia answered, and it was Kimberly. “Something happened. Look at the trending topic,” Kimberly said, and her voice was a little rushed. Anastasia’s heart tightened. She took a deep breath. Anastasia quickly tapped open the trending hashtag and took a look after she hung up the phone. The first trending news story was about Jason. Someone had rummaged through a photo of Jason at school. Obviously, someone had started to slander Jason openly. ミミ [Overseas student from Atharia’s Xosa University. Would do anything to improve one’s social standing.] [The wife of Lopez Group’s CEO had an extramarital affair. The wife cheated on him with a young hunk.] [The young hunk’s identity was revealed. The last name is Gunn. Swindled his way through while overseas. Imposed as a scion to a wealthy family. Fake identity exposed.] [The lover of the wife of Lopez Group’s CEO was revealed. Imposter as a scion of a wealthy family exposed. Swindler, who uses the last name Gunn. Claimed to be the only heir to the Gunn Group.] There were all kinds of news headlines. All sorts of ridiculous information were published on multiple online platforms. Someone even pointed out that the heir of the Gunn Group had used an alternate account and replied: [We don’t have such a person in the Gunn family. Thank you.] In an instant, Jason had been placed in the spotlight and slandered by the mass public. Anastasia trembled and breathed unevenly. Anger poured through her as she checked WhatsApp messages from Felicia. Sure enough, it was Felicia who could not get hold of Anastasia, so she blasted the news of Jason to unleash her anger. Felicia had warned and threatened her on WhatsApp more than once that she would make her regret. Apparently, Felicia succeeded. Anastasia was trembling all over, uncontrollably. Jason, too, had been exposed on the Internet. Anastasia tried to edit a post on Twitter with trembling fingers. However, she pondered long and hard but could not come up with what to post. “How should I put it on Twitter? What can I do to minimize the damage to Jason?” she wondered worriedly. Anastasia was trembling when she called Jason. She requested, “Come back. Come back home, Jason.” Anastasia was scared. It did not matter what she had gone through with the online violence. She was dying. However, Jason could not. She had to keep Jason alive, well, and safe. “Anastasia? Are you scared? Don’t be. I’ll come back right away!” Jason immediately detected the fear in Anastasia’s voice and comforted her immediately. Anastasia hung up the phone and got up. She paced around, wondering what could be done. She thought, “How can help Jason? What can be done to salvage his reputation? Should I up to all the mistakes and plow them on myself Anastasia returned to sit on the couch and started to edit the messages on Twitter. [Alastor and I signed a divorce agreement several months ago. The marriage has come to an end. Jason graduated recently…] Anastasia deleted and retyped it after thinking for a while. She repeated it several times, for she did not know whether there was any flaw in her words. “Anastasia.” Jason came back in a hurry and rushed into the living room. “Have you seen the news? Felicia slandered you. Apart from her, who else can it be? She said she’d make me regret it.” Anastasia choked with sobs and cried. The suppressed grievances that had built up in her instantly exploded. Jason took a deep breath, held Anastasia in his arms, and comforted her, saying, “It’s okay. I’m here.” “What should I do to help you?” Anastasia asked Jason with tears in her eyes. 1/2 11:31 Chapter 110 Jason frowned. “Annie, I’ve admitted to others that I am your boyfriend. Now, you can help me by announcing our relationship publicly.” Those people suspected that Jason deliberately posed as the scion of a wealthy family to get close to Anastasia. After all, the wife of Lopez Group’s CEO and that of Gunn Group were still incomparable.
