Samuel Grant was hesitating on how to explain, and Mrs. Grant finally couldn't hold back: "Stop making a fuss! That's because Daisy is pregnant with Samuel's child! Calling the police won't help, making this public will only make us a laughingstock!"
Sir Grant hadn't known about this before and immediately asked Samuel: "Is what your mom said true?"
The matter couldn't be hidden anymore, so Samuel took a deep breath: "Yes, Daisy seduced me, and after I drank too much I lost self-control, and accidentally—"
"Accidentally? How can it be accidental? She's your sister-in-law! How could you do this to your brother?"
Sir Grant was furious.
However, Samuel just felt irritated.
In such busy times, his father still mentioned his already useless brother?
Samuel sneered: "It's all my fault, but this child is the only hope for our family, and only I can continue our lineage."
Sir Grant roared: "Ingrate—"
Samuel hung up the phone.
An ingrate?
He opened the webpage to browse the various speculations online about this matter.
Many people had started discussing the relationship between the child and him.
Samuel muttered softly: "For my sake and for the last hope, I must protect myself no matter who I have to sacrifice."
Early the next morning, although the issue with Daisy came up, it still shot up the hot search list.
Clara Bennett handled the matter very cleverly.
The privacy of the victim should not be exploited, nor should people demand victims to be immaculate; criminals should not escape responsibility just because the victim is imperfect.
But last night, just as everyone was expecting a fair outcome, the authorities revealed the truth.
It turned out that both parties in this storm had willingly sought the thrill, and ultimately they received some criticism and paid a fine.
This twist left the netizens utterly stunned.
How could this happen?
??
The police specifically called Clara Bennett to explain the situation.
Clara thanked them and immediately notified her team, preparing to move to the next step.
The next step was to continuously create hotspots.
Due to this unexpected turn, the nature of the entire event changed.
Those who had spoken out with a sense of justice realized they had been fooled.
Furthermore, Daisy, as a pregnant woman going to bars looking for men, aroused greater public outrage.
Thus, all accusations turned towards her personally.
This was when the "eyewitness" was supposed to step on stage.
[It truly was a passerby at the scene who saw it. At first, we thought she was an innocent victim; she pretended to faint in the ambulance and fooled everyone.]
[An enthusiastic person said: The girl who tried to stop the tragedy by calling the police was too pitiful, thinking she couldn't prevent the bad things from happening, and is heartbroken.]
[Uh, the woman in this photo looked familiar last night, but I didn't dare to speak out; she seems to be the fiancée of the Foster family's comatose son.]
This comment quickly rose to the top, leaving netizens dumbfounded; is this even news?
The gossip-loving public is like that; wherever there's news, they're there.
By this time, Daisy had already aroused mass anger, and everyone kept pursuing this matter relentlessly.
This made Clara's hired internet trolls feel extremely happy. Usually, they're either harming good people or cleaning up bad deeds, but they didn't expect to stand on the moral side for once, which delighted them to no end.
This time, the trolls were extraordinarily enthusiastic about exposing Daisy's affairs.
Unfortunately, Daisy was quite vain, relying daily on her looks, and the good reputation she had gained from taking care of her comatose husband to establish a clothing brand.
Outwardly, she pretended not to be an internet celebrity, yet behind the scenes, she sold clothes like one, and recently she seemed to want to enter the entertainment industry.
After her account was exposed, people found out that Daisy was performing a deep affection character online, while secretly going to bars pregnant and hanging out with other men.
Such behavior was both bizarre and shocking.
Now, with a target for venting their anger, people could express their dissatisfaction, their anger at being deceived, and their revulsion at the violation of ethics and moral values all online.
[My God, her husband has been in a vegetative state for over three years now, so whose child is in her belly?]
[That's just downright disgusting!]
[Already thought her fake and pretentious, constantly creating various images, and still, there are people buying it! She insisted on marrying into the Foster family because of deep feelings? I'm afraid it was more for the family's care, right?]
[Whose child is it really?]
[My mom ran into a woman at the hospital yesterday, it must be her! There were even police around. My family happened to be getting checked when this woman's relative arrived. I even saw a handsome man visiting her looking anxious, nearly hitting a girl to protect her; I heard that girl was the one who called the police to save Daisy, it's truly absurd, and I even took a photo of the man for everyone to see.]
As for Samuel Grant's identity, it wasn't difficult to find out, considering clues could be found in Daisy's newly posted New Year's family photo.
Netizens, after comparing, joked—
[This is just too outrageous folks, a comatose man lying in bed for three years with a pregnant wife who frequents bars drawing criticism, and the one who anxiously sent her to hospital turned out to be her brother-in-law. Truly amusing, the child born will take the father's surname regardless of who the real father is.]
With more information about Samuel Grant exposing, the topic's popularity skyrocketed.
Initially, it was thought to be just a small circle's affair, but it aroused widespread attention, including news of Samuel having a girlfriend being dug up.
However, Clara didn't intend to step into the discussion herself, so she kept her information as concealed as possible.
As long as people knew that Samuel had a girlfriend and was suspected to have an ambiguous relationship with his sister-in-law, that was enough; the fact that she was Samuel's ex-girlfriend was unnecessary to mention.
It must be admitted, Clara's maneuvers in this whole series were indeed shrewd.
You could say she was guiding the netizens step by step; now the relationship between Samuel and Daisy was firmly categorized as an improper one.
Samuel Grant wasn't idle either; he tried to control the discussions online, but the response he received was: Too much anger has been stirred up, it can't be suppressed.
Samuel couldn't solve the issue with multiple phone calls, getting so angry he wanted to smash his phone.
These people didn't take him seriously at all!
At this time, William Foster gently put down his coffee cup in the new villa.
Butler Zam calmly said: "Boss Foster, we have arranged everything with the media to ensure Samuel Grant won't get any help."
Yes, within the Foster family, who dared to move against him?
It could only be done by their own people.
Although the one in charge wasn't primarily influential in this city, who wouldn't be wary of his name?
