“Lawyer?” All the reporters and online viewers were taken aback.

“That's right. These trolls sullied my reputation. Some netizens posted nasty, unverified accusations against me to

win likes. All these had caused me great emotional and psychological distress. I am seeking justice for myself,”

Natalie said.

“But that is such a long list of people! Don't you think you are being too harsh?” A reporter felt she was over-

reacting. He reasoned it was just some harmless online comments, so she should not make such a big fuss over it.

To him, she was being petty and vengeful.

“What do you mean harsh? I don't think I am though. Did they remind themselves not to be harsh when they posted

all those vile comments?” Natalie retorted with a mirthless smile.

“Ah...” The reporter was tongue-tied.

Natalie looked away from him and addressed the crowd. “Every one of us has to take responsibility for our own

actions. They should have borne that in mind when they were happily trolling others. I am not worried about the

long list. I will take my time to get to every single one of them.”

Natalie was unyielding. Everyone got the message that she was not someone to mess around with.

Natalie clapped her hands to get all their attention. “Okay, that is all I have for today. The CEO of Thompson Group

will be holding his press conference in a short while. Harrison defamed both Mr. Shane and me, so Mr. Shane will be

responding to his accusation too. If you are interested, do head over to his press conference.”

Even before she finished her sentence, more than half of the reporters were already rushing out.

The rest had smug smiles on their faces. Obviously, they had colleagues already on-site to cover Shane's press

conference.

At the same time, Joyce ended her call and reported, “Nat, I have informed Mr. Campbell. He said they had already

started on their end.”

“Thanks.” Natalie went over to her laptop and log on to Shane's press conference live stream.

Shane was seated in their conference room. He looked straight in the camera and solemnly announced, “Ms.

Natalie had given a very clear explanation, so I shall not go into the details again. From this moment, I will boycott

the Smith Group. This is my punishment to Harrison Smith for his defamation.”

No one faulted him for his decision. They would have done the same if they were in his position. Nobody would like

to be given a bad name.

“Mr. Shane, since there is nothing between you and Ms. Natalie, why did you break off your engagement with Ms.

Jasmine?” A reporter raised this question.

Shane adjusted the microphone and answered his query. “When I announced the decision to break off my

engagement with Ms. Jasmine Smith, I have already stated my reasons. She is a vicious woman who tried to frame

Ms. Natalie on numerous occasions, despite my persuasion for her to stop. On top of that, she is a woman of easy

virtue.”

Easy virtue?

His choice of words and expression set everyone's imagination running wild.

Easy virtue?

His choice of words and expression set everyone's imagination running wild.

Even Natalie was taken aback. He actually said that? Did he just openly hinted at Jasmine's infidelity? Ain't he

worried people would talk behind his back and mock him?

Shane was not aware of Natalie's worry. Even if he was, he would not be bothered since it was Jasmine's reputation

at stake, not his. Moreover, even if there were any gossips about him, no one would dare to speak about it in his

face.

“That's all for today then.” Shane let go of the microphone and walked out of the conference room.

Silas stayed behind to clear the crowd.

Those tuned in to the live stream were astonished. That must be the most succinct statement ever released in a

press conference.

Natalie was surprised too but it was not unexpected. That was very Shane.

Natalie smilingly shook her head. She turned off the projected screen and cleared the remaining reporters from her

studio.

Soon, only Joyce and she were left in the studio.
