Chapter 719 Shifting Topics and Diverting Attention
The Crossley Group released an official statement at 10.00AM.
The previous rumors about the group mortgaging its assets were all false, and the company was not facing bankruptcy.
There were two reasons the company contacted major banks—first, to prepare the financing materials for the Complex Group’s collaboration with the Crossley Group, and second, to make adequate preparations for the cooperation with the Southwest Group.
After the statement was released, the storm surrounding the Crossley Group died down completely.
As for the Southwest Group, they never responded to the ongoing online disputes.
However, public opinion did not stop there. On the contrary, it escalated even further, and the Pearson Group was dragged into the discussion. It even surpassed the Crossley Group and became the center of the topic.
Justin and Aidan were frequently made into people’s targets of comparison.
Some said that Aidan should have left the Pearson Group long ago and even without him, the company would still thrive. It was only someone like Justin, the rightful heir of the Pearson Family, who had the qualifications to become the president of the Pearson Group.
Others argued that if it weren’t for Aidan, the Pearson Group would never have reached its current heights. The company’s success was all thanks to Aidan’s contributions, and even the company’s current operations were still following his strategic planning.
As for the future of the Pearson Group, it would take a few more years before anyone could see the results.
While the online discussions were in full swing, there was a gossip blogger who posted a video that lasted only a few seconds.
In the video, Theodore’s face was clearly visible. Even though only a silhouette and a profile of the woman next to him could be seen, it was evident that it was Daphne. Theodore could be seen to be holding Daphne’s hand as they walked toward the car.
The topic ‘Daphne Shirley and Theodore Frost Suspected of Rekindling Their Romance’ quickly skyrocketed to the top of the trending list. It was the hottest topic at the moment.

Daphne was highly popular and influential. As soon as the video was released, all the netizens swiftly shifted their attention to this incident, eager to witness the spectacle.

were criticizing their idol’s future husband.’ ‘Goodness! If I were a fan, I would be devastated. What have these fans even been stanning… Instead of wasting money on idol worship, they might as well spend it on their parents.’ ‘I’m shocked even though I’m not a fan. There are so many hot guys in the entertainment industry. Why must she bend over backward for… that?’ Daphne’s fans were dumbfounded when they read these comments. Many of them immediately decided to unfollow her and leave negative comments, while others chose to continue believing in and supporting Daphne while they waited for her response. It was already 5.00PM when Daphne finished shooting the advertisement. As soon as she stepped out of the studio, she noticed the staff outside whispering and discussing something. However, they fell silent and broke up the moment they saw her. She

Daphne opened her Twitter account and saw the news about her and Theodore.
Her eyebrows were immediately pulled together as she enlarged the video and finally saw that it was taken at the entrance of her residential complex.
It must have been the time when Theodore was waiting there when he attempted to take her away forcefully.
However, because the video was only a few seconds long and the camera was focused on Theodore, her fighting against his hold was not captured at all. It actually looked as if Theodore was guiding her to the car.
After watching for a while, Daphne suddenly burst into laughter. How shameless can a person be?
Without hesitation, she switched to a new page on Twitter to clarify the situation.
However, the screen showed that she had to log in again, and when she entered her password, it showed that she had typed in the wrong password.
The assistant’s voice continued to ring out beside her. “The company called this afternoon… They said they will take back control of your Twitter account and handle the postings themselves.”
Daphne’s head shot up and she looked at Fish with an incredulous gaze. “What?”
Fish squeaked, “I asked them about it, but they said it’s a rule from the higher-ups. It applies to all artists under the Pearson Group. There are no exceptions.”
