Chapter 1369 In a Tight Spot
"The connection between us? Mr. Thorne, you're mistaken again. We don't have any connections, except that we've met at conferences because I'm a philanthropist."
Kenton tightened his grip on the phone as he continued, "Mr. Thorne, let me remind you. Your words may not affect me, but if 'that person' overhears, it could turn into a much bigger problem. Don't you think so?
At the mention of "that person", Alden visibly cowered, yet at the same time, he felt reassured.
With "that person" in the picture, he had nothing to be afraid of. No matter how big the issue, they could handle it.
However, there was one thing Alden couldn't understand. "How did the Blaise family manage to revive in such dire straits? Was it just a coincidence, or does that lady the Quinnell family brought back really have some abilities?"
In the past, this would never have happened. He had worked with the Wray family more than once before. However, this time, just because of some celebrity, the people online had gone crazy, completely disregarding everything and even daring to cause trouble at their place!
Alden couldn't make sense of it. In fact, those who had been in power for too long could never comprehend that.
That outcry for justice for the Blaise family wasn't driven by the celebrity but by the fact that people had a sense of morality.
Kenton didn't respond to Alden. All he wanted now was for Wynter to regret getting involved with the Blaise family.
Words like "the Blaise family", "applesauce factory", "local goods", and "sold out " had all blown up on trending searches, and they'd stayed there ever since.
The Wray family, unable to reach Kenton, had already thrown a bunch of money into trying to divert people's attention with other gossip, such as who had fallen in love again or who had been unfaithful.
However, it didn't work at all this time. After all, the most influential celebrity was right there on the factory's livestream channel.
For the first time, the Wray family tasted what it truly meant to be in a tight spot. They realized they couldn't let things spiral any further. They had to find something to divert the public's attention!
However, before the Wray family could come to a decision, Kenton had already made his move.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
The troll armies claimed they could trace the IP address behind the defamatory video. Kenton had already found it, and it led to a specialty store.
Although Wynter was on the livestream channel, Tobias and Orson were at the front, talking and introducing the factory and products. Hence, no one knew what she was doing at the moment.
After all, it was extremely difficult for Wynter's fans to spot her on the livestream, and even after searching for a long time, they only managed to catch a glimpse of her clothing.
In fact, Wynter had been observing the online discussions the entire time. She had been anticipating Kenton's move.
Since Kenton wanted her to regret investigating the video and wanted to frame the Whitman family, she would make sure he experienced for himself what it felt like to be targeted by the masses online.
Wynter's lips curved into a smile at the thought.
Meanwhile, Kenton had just settled into his office and intended to contact his nephew, Benette. He made several calls, but no one answered.
Kenton assumed Benette was out having fun and simply wasn't checking his phone, expecting him to call back later. However, after waiting for hours with no response, he called some relatives, only to find out that no one had seen him.
A wave of unease washed over Kenton. The video had been posted by Benette, but it was Kenton who had instructed him to do so.
Now, Benette was missing, and Kenton had no clue what was going on. He had a bad feeling about all of this.
At the same time, Kenton's assistant, Kerry Sullivan, had just arrived with his team at the applesauce factory's entrance, ready to carry out another round of framing.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
