“You still haven’t contacted that evil girl?” Balor hung up the phone with a headache and asked the assistant beside him in an irritable tone.

This evil creature, she had caused trouble outside, and in the end, he was the one being chased to find trouble!

The assistant put down the phone. “Miss’s phone is not working.”

Only then did Balor remember that in order to destroy the surveillance video, they had gotten the caretaker to steal Caroline’s phone and get rid of it. After that, no one had thought of returning the phone to her. This meant that no one knew how to contact Caroline now.

He was pacing around the office in frustration when another assistant, Filo, who was constantly paying attention to the news on the internet, suddenly said, “It’s falling, it’s falling.”

Balor said impatiently, “What’s falling?!

Filo directly showed him his phone. the voices of boycotting online were very loud. The shares of those companies fell quite a bit within half an hour, with Taylor Co. declining the most.

Balor looked at the green interface of the phone, and an idea flashed through his mind. The anger in his heart was greatly reduced, and he even laughed out loud. “Good, good, good. Well done!”

The phone in his hand rang again. Balor glanced at it, but he did not answer it like he had before. He directly placed the phone upside down on the table and instructed his assistant, “Is she still in school? Hurry and bring some people to stop her. We must bring her home before others find her.”

Balor’s previous irascibility had disappeared, and he was now in a very good mood because he had thought of a good idea that could kill two birds with one stone.

“You still haven’t contacted Balor?” Irina’s father, Derek, who was also the head of the Taylor family, sat at his desk with a dark expression. His eyes were fixed on his family’s stocks.

“I heard that we could still get in touch with him just now, but he’s not picking up his phone anymore,” the assistant said.

Because Caroline ended the livestream before she made her move, the audience only saw the side of her being bullied. The netizens were all concerned about Caroline’s safety.

Some of the people who were close had already run to Alexandria College.

If it wasn’t for the tight security of the college, these people would have already sneaked into the campus and caused trouble.

At first, Derek had wanted to have Lambert and his daughter in his grasp, and then he would let them have the final say on how they would do it. He didn’t expect that the father and daughter were not honest.

Derek sneered. “That’s just a stupid fox who thinks he’s smart!”

When they came back to their senses and smelled the meat, they would not be willing to let go easily.

“How’s the situation with Irina?” Derek asked again.

“She seems to be quite shocked.” The assistant adjusted his glasses. “The butler is about to arrive at the school. We can only confirm it after he has seen her.”

Derek was a little displeased. “Even a person who hits birds all day will be pecked by birds. It’s time for her to learn her lesson.”

“Chief Eric also called to ask about the situation,” the assistant said.

Because Irina had mentioned that the police chief of the East Borough was an important guest of her family, many people questioned Eric’s favoritism and called him to complain, which caused him a lot of trouble.

“Let him wait.” Derek obviously didn’t have time to care about him.

“Have you found out who’s behind this?” Looking at the negative comments below the official website, he rubbed his chin. “We can’t sit still and wait for death. Since someone doesn’t want it to die down, then we’ll start crisis public relations and shift the focus of public opinion. It must be done before noon.”

If this dragged on any longer, the old guys on the Board of Directors would become restless again. Moreover, at noon, when the people were free, they could have a meal with the gossip news. That was the time when the public opinion was at its strongest.

The assistant shivered and hurriedly contacted the people from the Public Relations Department.

Very quickly, there was an obvious change in the direction of public opinion on the internet. All kinds of ‘black material’ about Caroline popped up like bamboo shoots after the rain. There were comments accusing Caroline of ‘not being a good person’.

Such a way of belittling the victim and putting the victim and the perpetrator on the same level or even lower could not only weaken the crime of the perpetrator and reduce the sense of existence of the perpetrator in the incident, but if handled properly, it could also reverse right and wrong, turning the victim into the perpetrator.

This was a common practice in public relations. Only the ‘perfect victim’ could win the public’s sympathy, and they had caught on to the thoughts of these people.

Caroline could see it, and so could Edwin who had been paying attention to this matter.

“It seems like they haven’t learned their lesson. If you want to go invisible, you’ll have to see if I agree!”

Caroline took out her phone and quickly typed on it.
