Chapter 739

Chapter 739 Do Not Let Her Off Meanwhile, in the hotel, Aubree had also caught up with everything that had happened over the past two days.

Even though she didn’t know who the mastermind was, she was elated when she saw Roxanne getting questioned by the online community.

Ha! I’m sure that b*tch won’t be able to recover from such a powerful online onslaught. That way, she will eventually be forced to leave the country even if I don’t take any action. When that time comes, I’ll have Lucian all to myself!

As a result, Aubree continued to pay close attention to the discussions online, thinking that netizens would continue to attack and scold Roxanne.

To her horror, everything took a sudden turn later that night.

The first wave of anger hit Aubree when Queen Group published its statement, causing her to toss and turn the entire night as she wondered how she could blow the matter up.

Unfortunately, the situation only worsened when Jessica issued a public apology and confessed to spreading the nasty rumors out of sheer jealousy.

Since they were both in Horington’s upper-class social circle, Aubree knew Jessica’s reputation well enough to surmise that the latter couldn’t have apologized on her own. Something must have happened that forced her to take such a drastic measure.

Therefore, as frustrating as things were, Aubree didn’t dare to act rashly.

After staying up all night seething with rage, she was distracted when her phone suddenly rang in the morning.

Upon seeing that it was an unknown caller, Aubree hung up the phone without hesitation.

From the day before till that morning, she felt like she had been on an emotional rollercoaster that sent her plummeting to rock bottom.

When Harvey’s interview came on, the atmosphere around her became even more frighteningly frigid, so why would she be in any mood to answer a stranger’s call?

To Aubree’s surprise, she had only just ended the call when she received a text from the same number:

Ms. Pearson, don’t you want to hear about Mr. Farwell?”

The mention of Lucian instantly grabbed Aubree’s attention as she furrowed her brow and carefully weighed her options.

In the end, she decided to call the number, and the person on the other end answered within seconds.

“Who are you?” Aubree asked coldly.

Eyes blazing with fury, Jessica replied, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t know me, Ms. Pearson. All you need to know is the relationship between Mr. Farwell and Roxanne Jarvis!”

Upon hearing that, Aubree felt her heart sink.

What? I can’t believe she knows about Lucian and Roxanne! If word gets out, what would people think about me as the fiancée?

Aubree replied cautiously, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand what you’re implying!”

“Ha! You’d better keep an eye on Roxanne Jarvis, Ms. Pearson. Because of her, Mr. Farwell pushed Hightower Group to its edge in just one day,” Jessica snapped. “Now that you know what he’s willing to do for Roxanne, what do you think their relationship’s like?”

Needless to say, Aubree’s heart sank even further.

The Farwell Group took action, huh? I’ve always known there was something between Lucian and that b*tch, but I never expected him to go to such lengths for her!

“Wait a minute. Are you Jessica Hightower?” Aubree asked.

A cold chuckle rang out on the other end before Jessica’s voice sounded again. “I’m surprised that you’d even know me, Ms. Pearson. Don’t worry. I won’t divulge anything about the relationship between Lucian and that b*tch. That said, I do hope you won’t let her off!”

With that, Aubree finally heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you for informing me. Since that b*tch has the guts to seduce Lucian, I’ll make her pay for it!”
