Chapter 272

The comments on the video continued.

“I wonder who her boyfriend is.”

“She is my colleague. She stole someone else’s ID to borrow an online loan. She’s hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. Her creditors even came to the office to cause trouble, She used to be a rather cheerful girl, but all she thought of were designer brands ever since she met her boyfriend

“Wow! That’s crazy! What kind of man would put her under such a spell?”

“The son of the Morrisons, Jackson Morrison.”

Instantly, photos of Jackson taking Millie to shop surfaced on the internet.

The Morrison family was hardly considered a wealthy family in Seacester and nothing he did would have drawn so much attention.

However,

Millie’s action at the international airport caused the Morrison family to become the center

of attention.

Everything about them had been exposed, including photos of them selling potatoes in a wet market decades ago.

The netizens started calling Jackson “potato” because his family got rich by selling potatoes.

Jackson had gone overseas and wasn’t affected.

However, his parents were livid and had to come forward and clarify on social media that Jackson and Millie were just friends.

All Jackson had done was buy gifts for a friend and those gifts were not at all expensive.

They even claimed that they had never met Millie and didn’t know her.

It was Millie who had been plotting to marry into their family.

Within just an hour, the direction of discussion changed yet again.

Everyone condemned Millie for being greedy and all personal information about her had been exposed online, including the fact that her father was in the hospital.

Aurelia felt a bit concerned.

She immediately got up from the bed and grabbed her bag to leave.

At that moment, the study door opened.

Leslie walked out while buttoning his cuff.

He glanced at her.

“Let’s go.”

Aurelia hesitated.

“Where are we going?”

Leslie put on his shoes.

“You’re heading to the hospital, aren’t you? I saw the video too. Millie’s dad just had surgery, so he can’t withstand any disturbances. Her mom isn’t good at handling situations. If she gets tricked into saying the wrong thing. Millie’s name will be tainted forever.”

Aurelia looked at Leslie gratefully.

“Thank you.”

Through their time together, she realized that Leslie wasn’t as cold–hearted as his exterior suggested.

He just grunted in response and didn’t say much.

When they arrived at the hospital, there were already many online influencers around.

They came here to take advantage of the situation.

Poor Mrs. Parker doesn’t even use the internet, so she had no idea what was happening.

A group of strange people pointed fingers at her and cursed.

“Your daughter is so cheap! How much did you sell her for?”

“Did you teach her to do such vulgar things?”

Mrs. Parker felt at a loss because Millie indeed had done many wrong things.

“Madam, since you’re not saying anything, it must mean you’re agreeing.”

Eager for attention, a male influencer started creating controversy as soon as Mrs. Parker opened her

mouth.

This man had experience in stirring up trouble.

Nowadays, people love taking things out of context on the internet.

Through editing, they would steer the narrative to generate traffic.

Many didn’t mind spreading false information just for a crumb of attention.

“No, I…

Mrs. Parker looked at the group of people in distress.

“Madam, all you need to do is nod,” the male influencer continued.

Mrs. Parker was completely at a loss.

Just as she was about to nod, Aurelia swiftly stepped forward and pulled her behind her.

“What are you doing? How is this any different from forcing a confession?

“Who are you? Could you also be her daughter? Oh, look at what you are wearing. It seems like you’re also into luxury brands. How many daughters did your mom raise?”

He laughed and pointed his phone at Aurelia.

Aurelia shielded Mrs. Parker, sneering.

“Go ahead and record all you want. As a publle figure, you attempted to manipulate an elderly person to answer your questions. Have you no shame? Oh, I guess you don’t. A grown man wearing such thick makeup must be doing it to cover his flaws.”
