Chapter 104 Office Gossip
Even though Jonathan had taken two days off without proper planning, there was not as much work as one would expect. Thanks to Vincent and his elite team of sub-secretaries, most things were taken care of. Only some important and sensitive things were held off waiting for his approval.
But even then Jonathan had a busy day as there was still a lot to handle and too many meetings to attend. He wanted to finish everything early and go back to his wife and children. His family!
He smiled involuntarily thinking of his family. The word and what it meant to him brought a fresh gush of gratitude and contentment.
The day passed in a blur for Jonathan, but that was not the case for others.
The Smith Group was buzzing.
Jonathan had come to the office that day and was in a splendid mood. This news had spread like wildfire throughout the company.
‘Why did the President take two days off after the auction?’
‘Maybe he was celebrating a mini-honeymoon with Mrs. Liliana. Did you see the light in his eyes?’
‘He seems completely unbothered with the news.’
‘Maybe he simply does not care about other people’s opinion, he is powerful enough to do that.’
‘His scandal had caused an uproar in the city and the shareholders have been lobbying in the company, but our President is not at all unaffected. How cool is that?’
‘Oh My God! Did you see this?’
‘What is it?’
‘Let me see! Oh, dear!’
‘I can’t believe people are so shameless. They have turned a simple group dinner into an affair.’
‘Why are they outside the hospital? And my heart breaks for Mrs. Liliana. Never had I imagined my Goddess to weep so sorrowfully.’
‘Is this real?’
‘The experts are evaluating. Looks real to me though.’
‘Our President is really admirable. Such a beautiful woman is weeping on his chest and he is just patting her head. Any man would have hugged the beauty close. He deserves my respect. I want to marry someone like him.’
‘I knew my idols were the best. Thank God for rewarding my loyalty. Never had I imagined, I would be seeing such raw emotions in my Goddess’s face.’
‘Looks like this really is real, the experts have confirmed. I vote for the people who fabricated this be lynched publicly.’
‘I vote on that too. Such shameless bastards to try and sling mud on my Goddess.’
‘But they do make such an amazing couple.’
‘I hope they both get together if they are both single.’
‘Mrs. Liliana hides her husband and children. Maybe her relationship with her husband is quite bad.’
‘I think she is doing the right thing by protecting their privacy.’This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
‘President Smith gifting a 20 billion dollar necklace to Mrs. Liliana does not make any sense.’
‘They make a great couple. #ship’
‘My Spidey senses are tingling. There is more to them than meets the eye.’
Right after Vincent released the two videos there was an uproar in the company and the world outside.
The mysterious designer of L&L Designs who had won everyone’s heart and earned everyone’s admiration and envy was once again the talk of the town.
The people who had insulted her and gloated on her misfortune were being made to admit their faults by the loyal believers who had decided to believe her charity and contribution over the years and everything they had seen for real rather than photos.
Many such envious people were made to leave the internet and another round of minor cyberbullying continued.
