Chapter 98
“I’m not one to let bad behavior slide just because it is my own family. Punishment will come to you if you make a mistake, no matter what. Compensation for any physical or mental damages will be given to the victim, Loraine.”
Public opinion did a turn in the opposite direction after this.
“I never would have guessed that Marina was the thief, not Loraine!”
“I feel so bad for Loraine. She keeps getting piled on with these horrible accusations. First, the affair, and now this thievery. I wouldn’t be surprised if Loraine was being targeted by her ex-husband’s family!”
“Something feels wrong here. Marco and Loraine were already divorced, weren’t they? It seems weird that he would still help her after his mother targeted her.”
“You’re right. I didn’t think about that!”
The Internet took the two statements on a viral rampage.
The Torres Family met to discuss the incident.
Wesley said proudly, “Lorrie, people are defending you now.”
Loraine took a breath of relief. “Thank you so much, Uncle Wesley.”
Wesley complained, “Lorrie, I’m your uncle. You don’t need to thank me.”
Loraine giggled. She stuck her tongue out at him, grinning.
“Sorry,
Uncle. I’ll be sure to not do it again.”
Wesley smiled for a moment before it left his face. “Why would Marco defend Lorrie? What’s his plan?”
Rowan scoffed.
“If he dares to make any shady move again, we can sue him!”
“It doesn’t matter now. Even if he’s trying to be nice and help Lorrie, it’s too late. He hurt my granddaughter beyond measure. He can’t do anything to make up for what he did to Lorrie!” Aldo hissed.
Loraine stared at the statement of Bryant Group, smiling.
“He isn’t trying to help me. He is just saving his own image and that of Bryant Group. It’s his job as CEO, after all. But it would be different if the person he cares about was involved.”
Loraine believed that Keely was the one that Marco held closest.
If Keely stole the documents, Marco would defend her.
Wesley shared information that his subordinate told him.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
