Chapter 242 Out of Court
In a circle around Kate, a group of individuals spoke in a tumultuous chorus.
“It was Leslie who led us into this. We were in the dark; we merely followed her bidding!”
“Is this unlawful? Had I known, I’d never have engaged. I do apologise!”
“Yes, indeed, it’s all Leslie’s doing. We were just her puppets.”
Kate regarded these swiftly contrite souls with a cold gaze, her eyes icy and impassive.
It was evident that the Leslie they mentioned was the one taken away by the constabulary, the most vocal instigator and the woman who had turned to violence.
“Ms. Lowe, we never intended to defy you purposely. By the by, Leslie claimed she knew your establishment lacked surveillance, hence our impudence. Apparently, someone dismantled it.”
The group cast wary glances at Kate, none desiring imprisonment or a mark on their records over these trifles, especially under Leslie’s influence.
“And what else do you know?” Kate’s indifferent gaze swept over them, her tone even cooler.
“Leslie was quite ordinary before, but of late, she’s flush with cash, squandering it freely. Her funds must be from shady sources!”
“I’ve seen another woman frequently visiting Leslie. Since Leslie is unwed and childless, that woman must be up to something!”
“I know where Leslie resides. Ms. Lowe, shall I escort you there to find proof?”
Mr. Forester sighed wearily, massaging his brow. He hadn’t anticipated their swift capitulation and disclosure with so few words.
Turning to Kate, he inquired softly, “Ms. Lowe, how do you wish to proceed with this?”
These matters, though not insubstantial, could be regarded as disputes. Despite their disruption at HN Studio, no substantial harm had been wrought. Fundamentally, they could be resolved amicably in private.
Yet, should Kate decline a private resolution, they would be compelled to intervene.
Casting a glance at the group, Kate murmured gently. “It’s a minor affair. I shall settle this privately with
them.”
Mr. Forester nodded.
With their differences settled on the spot and Kate’s permission for them to depart granted, the group dispersed like startled rabbits, each fleeing as though fearful Kate might retract her leniency.

Kate dear. If he learns of this, with his ruthless nature we’re done for.”
“Such frugality has proven an expensive folly. These cruptions upon my skin bear the weight of truth!”
“Indeed! Never again shall Leslie gain our trust!”
Having vented their frustrations at Leslie for a considerable span, the group dispersed. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Kate did not linger on this minor episode.
Yet, as she unlocked her mobile device, she was abruptly confronted by an explosion of activity across the internet!
Surveying the deluge of messages on her screen with a furrowed brow, Kate maintained an outward composure.
Numerous voices online were stoking the flames, asserting that HN Studio’s attire had flunked rigorous quality examinations, labelling their merchandise as flawed. Some even circulated videos depicting Leslie and her cohorts in the throes of confrontation.
In sum, the digital realm resounded with censure, punctuated by demands for reimbursements.
Without delay, Kate captured images of the two test reports, disseminating them via HN Studio’s sanctioned social media platform, imparting a lesson in discernment.
Her post featured intricate visuals, guiding the audience in distinguishing authentic HN Studio garments from their counterfeit counterparts.
