Chapter 420
Nathaniel broke out in a cold sweat in his office as he stared at his monitor intensely.
He never imagined that Lily would have such a trick up her sleeve.He did not expect Olivia to have a
record of the research data either.
"No! I can still turn this around!"
Nathaniel stumbled to his feet.He remembered getting Melanie to rewrite a copy of the notes when they
wanted to sue Lily back then.
It could serve as evidence for him this time around.
After digging around the entire room, he found the new notebook buried deep in one of the drawers.He
put it on the table, preparing to take a picture of it, but he froze abruptly.
Nathaniel had forgotten an important detail.
When Lily left, she left problems behind for him, too, because part of the records was incorrect.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey were not glaring mistakes, so Melanie copied everything without making corrections since it was
impossible for her to find them in the thick books.
If he published the notes he had now, netizens might find those mistakes, and the situation would
become even worse for him.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмHe hung up the phone and tousled his hair helplessly,
trying to find some positive spin on the situation.
Nathaniel looked at his monitor and saw tons of new notifications and his almost-exploding inbox filled
with private messages.He did not need to read them because he already knew what they would say.
What else could they be if not reprimands and criticisms? Nathaniel’s mind was blank, and he slumped
back in his chair while staring at the ceiling.It was funny.
Those were just words and comments on the internet, and they were something he could stop seeing if
he just switched his computer off.
However, the words seemed like an invisible net trapping him.It made him feel suffocated from not
being able to escape.He was aware of the terrifying power of public opinion in the current age.
On the one hand, he could cause a stir, gain prominence, and cash in on the public's pity to boost
sales, but on the other, he could find himself on the receiving end of harsh words.
The calls for customer returns and boycotts were warnings of a potentially disastrous start.
After taking a deep breath, he decided to try one last time.
Nathaniel vaguely recalled that Lily had posted a short message to tell everyone that she was innocent
and that she did not care what others thought of her.
Her brief words were so well received that they drowned out the scandals surrounding her job hopping
and betrayal.It even won her new followers, who thought she was cool.
Nathaniel decided to employ a similar strategy.
Instead of blocking the netizens from commenting on his posts or sending him private messages, he
retweeted Olivia's post.
He left a comment, saying, "I did nothing wrong, and I’m not guilty of anything."
After replying to the post, Nathaniel retracted his hands from the keyboard.He called the manager of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe customer support department."Create a special helpline for product returns.Tell the customers that
we’ll accept their return requests only in the purchase sequence.Slow down the process, but remember
to accept some return requests."
The manager was surprised, "Mr.Hall, there are numerous applications for product returns now.Some
had already used the products, and it's vicious of them to do this."
"It doesn't matter.Just do as I say.Tell the customers that’s the procedure, and we hope they’ll wait
patiently.Remember to emphasize that we’ll try our best to meet their needs."
After telling the manager how to navigate the issue, Nathaniel notified the public relations department
to release a statement similar to what he had said to the manager earlier.
Once he settled everything, he walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked over the horizon.
The wind was blowing strongly, making him feel chilly even though the glass separated him and the
world outside his office.
It was a gamble to him.He was gambling for the public’s pity and good impression of him, hoping
everything could turn out differently.
‘Lily, I’m going to gamble with you this time!'
