CHAPTER 156

“Nina, this is terrible!”

Nina had just finished fixing her outfit in the restroom when Taylor burst in, looking panicked. She asked, “What’s wrong? You seem really upset.”

“It’s about you!”

Taylor hadn’t expected something like this to happen.

“Me?” Nina was still unaware, calmly asking, “What about me?”

“Your aunt and your cousin.”

Upon hearing those names, Nina’s expression darkened. Just hearing those names, she knew trouble was brewing. She then saw the live stream on Taylor’s phone.

Her aunt and cousin had gone too far. Unable to get anything from her family, they resorted to playing the victim in front of reporters, damaging her reputation.

They made up stories, claiming they had sacrificed everything to put her through college. After finally getting hired at this company and making progress, she turned her back on her relatives, treating her uncle and aunt as if they were insignificant. She had never contributed any money to the family.

It was because of funding her education that they had used up their savings, causing her cousin to miss out on attending a good school.

Now that her family was facing trouble, Nina stood by and watched her uncle die without offering any help. This caused people to perceive her as heartless and indifferent, comparing her to an ungrateful brat. The entire scene was being broadcast live, with numerous comments appearing on the screen.

“What kind of world is this? How can such things still happen? It’s truly inhumane!”

“The mother and daughter are so unfortunate. They seem to be struggling financially, dressing so plainly. I looked up Nina online, and she dresses so lavishly and can afford designer bags. I remember seeing her wearing a gown worth millions at the York Corporation’s charity event. The contrast between

them is astonishing!” Content

“I know Nina. We attended the same school, although we were in different classes. I’ve heard rumors that she got her secretary job through connections. Just look at her face, she’s merely a bimbo, if you catch my drift…”

“She has no sense of shame. If she treats her own family like this, one can only imagine how she treats her parents!”

“I’ve even heard rumors that she is involved in affairs with married men! Her impeccable dressing style must be funded by someone else. It’s possible that she obtained her position through… other means…” Taylor was infuriated as she scrolled through the never-ending stream of comments. “These netizens have gone too far, believing everything they hear and leaving random comments everywhere. Why do they feel the need to label you as a mere vase? Just because you’re attractive?”

Taylor strongly disagreed, saying, “This behavior objectifies women and shows a bias against them. Just because someone doesn’t possess certain qualities, they want to strip them away from others. It’s a clear bias against women who are considered attractive!”

The comments were flooded with

sympathy for the mother and daughter, but also contained

countless negative remarks directed at them. The online broadcast, which initially had only a few thousand viewers during the street interviews with sanitation workers, had now surpassed one hundred thousand viewers. The majority of these viewers were angrily condemning others, claiming they were upholding their own notion of justice.

Nina was indifferent to how netizens perceived her. What truly bothered her was the distortion of truth, which allowed them to act recklessly. “I’ll go down there,” Nina declared.

Taylor expressed concern about the potential negative consequences. “Nina, isn’t it risky to go down there now? They might capture you.”

Nina remained unworried. “I’m not

afraid. A clear conscience is not afraid of accusations. Furthermore, if we don’t assert our authority, they will continue to run wild. The damage has already been done, and if they persist in broadcasting like this, it will tarnish the company’s reputation. It is better for me to clarify matters and silence them once and for all.”
