“But are we just going to let them slander you online?” Jimmy was still frustrated.

Cynthia replied, maintaining her cool
Jimmy wanted to say more, but Cynthia decided to end the call. She asked him not to
worry too much. Given her father’s interest in social media, he would not know about this
short–lived trend. However, just because he did not know did not mean no one would tell
him, like her cousin, Kendrick
“President, this is a trending topic from today. Would you like to take a look?” Lionel Tom

Lionel, who know about Cynthia’s identity, held the tablet out and added, “The trending
topic is related to the young lady.”
Kendrick paused. “Cyn?” He stopped what he was doing and took the tablet. When he saw
the headline about a 200 million divorce, he frowned with puzzlement and disbelief.

girl; it’s not fair to her to form assumptions and place labels based on one’s own
speculation without understanding the truth, is it?”

Kendrick sighed.
“However, the trending topic has been removed. It seems Ms. Cynthia has had it handled.”
Kendrick checked for himself and found it to be true. Supporting his head in his hands, he
thought for a while before making a decision. “You can leave now. I’ll go find Cyn. Don’t
bother coming to the company for the next few days; go home for the
New Year
