Chapter 115
When Phoebe finished speaking, Andrew raised his eyebrows and glanced at Audrey. He thought, ‘Weak girl? I can tell she is a girl but not that she is weak.
Andrew had never seen such a tough girl like Audrey. Even ten of his bodyguards would not be Audrey’s match. He did not know how his mother could tell Audrey was weak.
Audrey cleared her throat. “Godmother, there’s really no need. I’m fine. Besides, I won’t be going out for the next few days. Don’t worry. This matter will be over soon.”
Audrey’s heart warmed slightly. She knew Phoebe was genuinely concerned about her.
Knowing Audrey did not want to stay at the Roscente family’s residence, Phoebe did not force her. She just looked at Andrew, who was sitting on the sofa.
The gentleness on Phoebe’s face disappeared when she looked at her son. She said coolly, “Andrew, select a few powerful bodyguards from the family to guard Auddie in case she is in danger and there is no one to protect her.”
Audrey wanted to say no, but she had already refused to stay with Phoebe. If Audrey refused again, she was afraid Phoebe would be angry, so she did not reject her this time.
“Got it.” Andrew glanced at Audrey and nodded.
When Phoebe saw his son’s unconcerned demeanor, she was furious and could not help but lecture him. “Andrew, what kind of attitude is that? Auddie is your younger sister. How can you be so unsympathetic to her?” Phoebe said with dissatisfaction. Then, she thought for a while and said, “Forget it. I think I should stay here for the next two days in case Auddie is in danger.”
Andrew felt his eyelids twitch. “Mom, if you’re going to stay here, Dad will be irritated with me later.”
Audrey also smiled and said, “Godmother, don’t worry about me. I’m really fine. I got someone to do the security system this residence. Normal people can’t enter.”
“No, I’m still worried.” Phoebe looked at Audrey and said aggrievedly, “Auddie, do you dislike me now? Don’t you like me anymore?”
“No, of course. You treat me very well. Why would I dislike you? I just feel there’s really no need to worry,” Audrey said. “Alright. Then I’ll let Andrew stay here to protect you. If you have anything that needs to be done, let him do it. He’s your brother. It’s only right for him to protect you and care for you. No need to be courteous with him,” Phoebe stated.
Phoebe simply decided to let Andrew stay.
Andrew had just taken a sip of coffee when he heard his mother’s words and almost spat it out. If he really stayed here for the night, that lunatic in the hospital would kill him.
Audrey glanced at Andrew and agreed, “Alright, let him stay.”
Seeing Audrey agree, Phoebe was satisfied. She had lunch with Audrey and asked the driver to send her home.
When Phoebe left, Audrey looked at Andrew and said calmly, “Stay if you want. Or you can leave.”
“Alright.” Andrew naturally could not stay there for the night. But he still listened to his mother and transferred ten bodyguards over from the Roscente family.
Although Andrew also knew that the big shot in the hospital could not sit back and do nothing when such a thing happened, he was really afraid his mother would nag him endlessly.
After Andrew left, Audrey went upstairs to the study.
Following the silence on Audrey’s side, the criticisms on the Internet grew louder. They felt Audrey’s persona had collapsed and her true character had been exposed, so she did not dare to make a sound.
Those people naturally scolded even more fiercely.
On the afternoon of the third day that the news erupted, two phone recordings, a few photos, and a screenshot of a transfer were posted online. Moreover, it was directly released through the official account of Hernandez Group.
Other than that, there was also Hernandez Group’s unyielding attitude. [To anyone who has falsely accused, framed, slandered, and insulted Ms. Audrey Hernandez, the CEO of Hernandez Group, in the last few days, legal measures will be taken against them. In addition, we will pursue legal responsibility for Miss Megan Baxter’s malicious slander. The following is a lawyer’s letter for everyone.]
Below the official statement was a long list of lawyer’s letters. Almost every critic who had insulted Audrey was listed. What was even more terrifying was that their real names were directly revealed.
For a moment, the entire internet was in an uproar.
The critics who were still working hard in front of their computers suddenly fell silent, especially when they saw the lawyer’s letters. None of them dared to say anything.
At the same time, the Clifford Group’s official account also spoke up. [Here’s the evidence that Miss Megan Baxter hired online critics to maliciously attack Ms. Audrey Hernandez. Also included are the lawyer’s letters sent by the Clifford Group to Miss Baxter and everyone who maliciously attacked Ms. Hernandez.]
When Clifford Group’s official statement came, it took the Internet by storm.
Almost no one had expected this. After all, Megan had quite a significant status.
Everyone in Northville knew Megan was the Clifford family’s adopted daughter. She grew up in the Clifford family and could be said to be the daughter of the Clifford family. And Dylan was the Clifford family’s son.
Dylan had directly sent a lawyer’s letter to his family’s adopted daughter. He even exposed Megan’s criminal evidence. Everyone could see Dylan’s attitude.
Previously, there had been rumors Dylan was pursuing Audrey. No one expected it to be true. Moreover, he didn’t even let his adopted sister get away from insulting his true love.
What was even more terrifying was that the Clifford Group had not only sent a lawyer’s letter to all the people who had attacked Audrey online, but they also dug out the real information of those people. Their information was even more detailed than the release from Hernandez Group. It was so detailed that it included even their home addresses. This was what made everyone feel terrified.
Following the Hernandez Group and the Clifford Group’s official statements, Star International, Neptune Investment, and Silvandel Auction House also followed suit to defend their boss’s reputation.
Immediately after, the top celebrity of the entertainment industry, Morgan, the youngest movie queen in history, Elizabeth, and other celebrities under Star International also voiced their support.
At this point, the support on the Internet had turned to side with Audrey. Especially when everyone saw the two voice recordings and all kinds of other evidence, they were stunned.
However, even though the evidence had shown that Megan deliberately hired someone to do cyber violence against Audrey, the photos of Audrey and Franklin were real.
Naturally, some people continued to clamor fearlessly. [You say this is a malicious scheme. Who are you kidding? That photo is real, right? Judging from that photo, they seemed very close. Perhaps they have some unspeakable relationship. After all, one is young and beautiful, and the other is quite famous. Who knows what’s real and what’s fake?]
Although the critics on the Internet didn’t dare to say anything else, there were naturally many people who were still convinced. After all, the photos were not photoshopped. They were real.
Since that was the case, everyone was naturally curious about the true relationship between Audrey and Franklin.
At this moment, Franklin, a contemporary painter who had always kept a low profile and had been in recluse for a long time, directly spoke out.
