Chapter 1069
Brian, who was the head of Bank of Caruna, also issued a statement. 'Miss Reed is right. I was in the hotel yesterday
afternoon. The so-called news on the Internet is utter nonsense. I also ask for you all not to believe it. It is time to
acknowledge your mistakes and apologize, lest you bring trouble to yourself.'
When Sonia saw that her post was reposted by Brian, she was quite surprised.
This microexpression of hers was caught by Toby and Charles as they both looked up at her together.
"What's wrong?" Toby was the first to ask.
She handed the phone to him and gestured for him to look at it. "Mr. Smith helped to clarify things as well."
He raised his chin slightly and said, "As he should. After all, he has received so many benefits from me."
Hearing this, she raised her eyebrow. "Right, I forgot to ask; since you've helped me get the parts back, you should
know how the boss of Dwells breached the contract without authorization and gave the parts to Connor. Based on
your identity, you're not going to let him go easily, aren't you?"
In response, Toby curled up his lips noncommittally.
"Of course." Sonia looked at him and continued, "Then, what are you going to do about him?"
"A blatant breach of contract is no longer just a matter of compensation because he has violated business law. I've
already sent him to prison," he replied lightly.
However, she knew that things weren't that simple.
"Did you do anything to him before you sent him to prison?" She squinted at the man and asked.
Toby smiled and did not answer, but the meaning was clear.
Paul obviously had suffered a lot before getting thrown into prison.
She nodded and asked again, "So, what will happen to Dwells now?"
"As of now, Dwells is about to undergo a change of power, and I believe that the fight will be fierce. If you're
interested in Dwells, you can secretly buy their stocks when the contest is the strongest. At that time, the price of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttheir stocks would be at its lowest. Although Dwells isn't too big of a company, it still has its own strength. Acquiring
its shares wouldn't be a loss." Toby drummed his fingers on the table as he explained to Sonia.
She thought about it for a moment before her eyes lit up. "All right, I just happen to have some money in hand right
now. I'll give it a try when the time comes."
"I'll let you know when's the best time to buy," he added after seeing that she had agreed to do it.
"Okay," she hummed.
Charles, who was listening from across from them, finally couldn't hold himself back and asked, "Wait, Sonny, did
you just say that he took the stolen parts back?"
He pointed at Toby.
This made Sonia smile. "Yeah, not long after we returned from the loan discussion with Mr. Smith yesterday, I
received the news that Toby had taken the parts back."
"Oh, I see." Charles nodded. Then, he looked at Toby and said unhappily, "Then, why didn't you take it back earlier?
If you did, we wouldn't have to meet Mr. Smith and wouldn't have been photographed like this. None of these would
happen."
Immediately, Toby frowned.
The smile on Sonia's face was immediately withdrawn as she turned to speak to Charles unhappily, "Charles, that's
not the case. Did you forget that I didn't want to tell Toby that the parts were taken from me in the first place? And
when he helped to get the parts back later, it wasn't me who told him about it. He just noticed it on his own, so we
can't blame him for this."
After she was done speaking, Toby raised his gaze and looked at Charles contemptuously. The meaning in his eyes
was apparent. Did you hear her? You can't put the blame on me.
Charles was furious, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Indeed, if Toby didn't know about it, what Charles just accused him of was a little unreasonable.
Thus, he stopped talking and turned to the side angrily.
Seeing this, Sonia shook her head helplessly before lowering her head to look at her phone again.
It had been a few minutes since she issued the post to clarify the situation, and with the help of Toby's people to
boost the popularity, her comment area was active. In a blink of an eye, the number of comments that she had was
up to five digits.
In just a few minutes, she had so many comments that some stars in the entertainment industry were envious of
her.
After all, these were comments from real people unlike theirs, where half of them were robots.
Sonia had no idea how these stars felt. She swiped her thumb across the screen to roughly scroll through the
comments.
About 80% of these comments were apologetic.
They had so much fun berating her before this, yet they were now filled with shame as they apologized.
After all, back when they were leaving comments about the scandal, the parties involved were silent. Thus, they
were naturally not afraid of anything.
Now that the people involved had come forward to bluntly mention about the big media companies, the groups,
and other active netizens, how could they just blow their trumpets? The only thing they could do after criticizing
someone was to apologize.
All of them were afraid of being sued.
Although they had portrayed a loud persona online, they were all just ordinary people behind the screen.
They were afraid of the effects brought by the lawsuit; they might be fired from the company and not be able to
find a new job, receive strange stares from others, and get scoldings and disdainful looks from their family and
friends.
Perhaps, if this was recorded in the system, it might also affect their future generations.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn short, thinking of these, how could anyone not be scared? How could they not give in?
They did not doubt Sonia's words at all. Even if they weren't convinced, they had to accept the fact that they were
just ordinary people who couldn't fight with the aristocrats.
For the aristocrats to bring up lawsuits, it was definitely not a game and they were bound to die.
Most importantly, Sonia's appearance reminded them that this wasn't the first time she had sued netizens.
Those who had been sued were detained, fined, lost their jobs, or ridiculed by others...
In conclusion, it was a miserable ending for them.
It hadn't even been that long, yet, they had forgotten what she could do and how tragic the ends were for those
people.
So, the more these trolls thought about it, the more afraid they became. They quickly deleted their comments and
apologized, hoping that Sonia would take pity on them and let them go.
As for whether it was working or not, they had no idea. For a while, they regretted it and wanted to give themselves
a few slaps on the face.
Of course, as there were netizens that left crude comments, there were naturally people who were just watching by
the sidelines in the silence. There were also netizens who believed that Sonia would never have done such a thing.
This group of netizens was starting to come alive.
'Hahaha, I knew that this wouldn't happen to my one true pairing. I've said it before, the person involved didn't even
speak up. You shouldn't be so quick to judge, lest you bite your own tongue. As a result, the content couldn't be
released as it's against the regulations, or if it manages to be posted, it will soon disappear. I'm not the only one
that felt grievance.'
When Sonia saw this comment, she instantly knew what was going on. Then, she clicked to reply, 'Thank you so
much for your support and your trust in me. I am thrilled and moved. As for why the page that posted about me
can't keep posting or their posts are missing thereafter, I'd have to ask Lore Communications.'
As soon as she replied that, there was an instant uproar.
The commenter was even more excited when this happened. 'All! I'm going to pass out! She noticed me!'
Sonia could only imagine the other party blushing excitedly and couldn't help but shake her head as she chuckled.
