Chapter 331

"What is the PR department doing? How are they this oblivious? If Audrey Hebert can't even handle this, I might as well find someone else who can!"Gritting her teeth, Angela demanded that the PR department suppress the news within an hour.Dexter turned to glance at her. "Don't be mad. Being angry is bad for your health.""That damn idiot! He finally calmed down for a while, and now he's acting up again. I really can't deal with this. Of all the things he could do, he just has to mess around with those people and get himself into such a huge mess. He's absolutely insane! Why doesn't he just—""Calm down." With a helpless sigh, Dexter handed her a bottle of water.Angela took a deep breath before exhaling hard. "I can't calm down."She really couldn't. She felt that all the time she had spent trying to change Zack for the better had amounted to nothing. He was still as reckless and dumb as ever!"A great leader stays composed in the face of adversity. Besides, there's a real cha

"What?" Angela lowered her head, carefully chewing over Dexter's words, yet something still felt off. Was it really just a coincidence?Was Zack really this unlucky? A friend invited Zack out, and a random guy just joined the party. By pure chance, someone just happened to be doing something shady, and Zack just so happened to get caught up in it?"Is there a possibility that this was a deliberate cover-up?" Angela pondered for a moment before looking up at Dexter.Right then, Dexter's expression was particularly serious when he said, "No. I looked into his movements over the past two days."Other than going between the store and home, the only time he went anywhere else was to a supermarket near the store to buy two ice creams. After work, he went straight home to play games as usual. There was nothing suspicious about his behavior."Angela frowned deeply. "Have you found the friend who tempted him to go drinking?""His name is Dylan Burch. He's being brought here right now. He

Angela was momentarily at a loss for words.She pressed her lips together. After a brief moment of silence, she said, "I can only do my best to ensure you suffer as little as possible."Her words turned out to be prophetic.Because of Angela's prior instructions, the PR department of Graham Group handled the matter with sincerity and transparency. They promptly announced an investigation and assured the public that there would be a proper explanation for what happened.As a result, the pressure from public opinion shifted to the police, prompting the Eldmere City Police Department to immediately send officers to investigate.Angela was present at the time. Phil Leach, an officer from the police department, presented his credentials, stated his purpose, and then explained the situation to Angela.With no other choice, Angela handed over Zack's blood test report, proving the claim was true.Phil was a serious man. He carefully examined the report multiple times in silence before c

"It's no trouble at all." Pressing his lips together, Phil extended his hand. "Thank you both for your cooperation. We'll send him back as soon as possible."Angela hurriedly reached out with both hands to shake his. "That would be much appreciated."News of Zack being taken away by the police quickly spread online. Public opinion was divided, but most people criticized Angela for failing to guide him properly, blaming her for allowing such a terrible situation to happen.Angela sat on the couch in silence, staring at her tablet. She felt as if she were suffocating and a heavy cloud had settled over her."Have some tea." Dexter, looking almost like a devoted housewife, walked over with an apron tied around his waist and handed her a cup of peppermint tea. He had brewed it himself."I don't feel like drinking anything." Closing her eyes, Angela leaned back against the couch. Recalling everything that had happened recently only made her feel utterly exhausted.Dexter didn't insist

"Do we really need to beat around the bush with each other? Just give it to me straight—I can handle it." Angela propped her chin up with one hand as she felt a dull ache at the back of her head. She had no idea what was causing it."The message board on our company's official website is flooded with demands for an apology, saying we owe consumers an explanation. So… this…" Clara trailed off. She looked troubled as she glanced at her tablet, hesitating whether to hand it over.Angela took it from her and skimmed through the comments. Clara had actually downplayed the situation.The messages were overwhelmingly unified—everyone was calling Angela out, demanding a public statement. Some even threatened to boycott all products under Graham Group unless she provided a proper explanation. They even said they would drive Angela to bankruptcy if she didn't."Ms. Graham, we don't actually need to take these comments too seriously. Those commenters are just venting." Clara tried to reassure

On the way there, Angela remained lost in thought, not saying a single word.Both she and Dexter had never been inside a place like this before. Even just standing outside, they could feel the cold, heavy atmosphere surrounding the building.A staff member led them to a visiting room where Zack was already waiting. The moment he saw Angela, his expression darkened. Clearly, he was still mad."Why are you here? I don't want to see someone as heartless as you." Zack huffed, his eyes instantly turning red and filled with grievance.Angela felt her heart clench as a sharp sting spread through her nose."How are you feeling? They're not as scary as you imagined, right?" Dexter asked gently, which was rare coming from him.Zack pouted but nodded begrudgingly. "You must've pulled some strings for me. They gave me a private space, so I haven't had to deal with anyone else. The doctors have been nice too, but seriously, acupuncture as treatment? That's too much!"By the time he finished,

Dexter walked out of the visiting room, his expression looking fairly good."Well? What did he tell you?" Angela stepped forward eagerly, her eyes filled with anticipation."There's a new lead. You don't need to worry about it, though." Dexter patted her shoulder, only then noticing that her complexion wasn't great. She looked a little pale.She had been running around constantly these past few days, barely getting any rest."Go home and rest. By the time you wake up, I'll have found the person responsible. All you need to do is decide how to deal with them," Dexter said.Angela looked surprised. "Zack gave you a lead? What could he possibly know from inside this place?""Someone came to see him today, trying to turn him against you. That's why he called us," Dexter explained briefly.Angela's eyes grew wide. She was able to understand a few important things from just those short sentences.First, the mastermind behind all this was growing impatient. Soon, they would reveal the

"That's right. I simply wanted to get back at you, but with how thick-skinned you are, ordinary tricks don't work on you. So I had to target your weakness instead. And as it turned out, it worked well—just look at you now, Angela. You're finally losing your composure, aren't you?" Elena rambled on.This woman was absolutely insane!"And how much better off are you? Who was it that dragged you out of your hiding place? Who brought you here? Isn't it the very man you've spent years trying to impress?" Angela sneered, gritting her teeth.Elena's expression darkened instantly.Right then, she felt a suffocating weight settling on her chest. An inexplicable bitterness gnawed at her insides, making her feel unbearably miserable."As expected, you really are a shameless bitch. You claim to have no interest in Dexter, yet you're constantly using him. You truly have no shame!"Elena's gaze was so sharp it seemed like a cold blade ready to slice Angela's heart out."You want to know why I

Clenching her teeth, Elena glared at Dexter. There was not a trace of warmth in her eyes. All that remained was overwhelming hatred that was ready to explode at any moment."I shouldn't have loved you—is that it? But then why did you give me hope in the first place?" she asked coldly.The current Elena was like a venomous snake slithering through the dark depths of hell. She looked gorgeous and dazzling on the outside, but on the inside, there was nothing but poison."Stop coming up with excuses to justify your sins. I never said I liked you." Dexter scoffed, his eyes filled with disgust.As his gaze fell on Elena, she was stunned at first, and then tears began to fall slowly.She had never imagined that one day, she would have the courage to confront the person she once loved the most. Unfortunately for her, she had lost—completely and utterly.How ridiculous! This was laughable."At the very least, tell me—why her?" After holding back her bitterness for so long, Elena bit her

Chapter 340

Angela needed to have her own career, hobbies, and source of spiritual support. She would never give up on herself. That was probably the biggest difference between her and Elena.No, that wasn't exactly true. Elena used to have those things too, but she lost them.Elena's eyes were wide open as she fixed her stunned gaze on Angela, utterly taken aback. "That isn't love—that's selfishness."She had never thought of it that way, but more importantly, she never believed she was in the wrong. She loved Dexter with all her heart and had given him everything she had when she adored him.And when she hated him, she wished for nothing more than to destroy everything and make him regret it for a lifetime.But why… Why was Angela different? No—Angela had changed."I'm not selfish." Angela sighed, feeling a bit helpless. "I'm just self-aware. I've fallen before, so no matter who I end up with in the future, I will never lose myself again.""Why? Why would you think that way? You're nothin
