The public relations department head stepped into the room, wearing a troubled expression.
“Miss Torres, we have a situation,” he announced.
Loraine looked up, curiosity piqued.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What's the matter?” He sighed heavily.
“The Bryant Group has been facing a string of issues recently, and they've just beca trending topic once again. The negative publicity is far from ideal. | believe it’s twe reconsider our association with them.” Given the recent debacle surrounding the Bryant Group, it wasn’t unexpected for such concerns to surface within their company. What caught Loraine’s attention, however, was the mention of a trending topic.
“What trending topic are you referring to?” she queried.
“It's a leak claiming that the former Bryant Group CEO, Marco Bryant, was not just ousted due to his background but also for a more severe transgression. Allegedly, he exploited personal relationships and divulged sensitive company information during the collaboration with ninja Universe Group. Even after his dismissal, it's said that he deliberately sabotaged several projects, leading to the Bryant Group's complete dysfunction and a consequential stock market crash.” As he relayed this information, he kept stealing glances at Loraine’s expression.
Ever since she took over the Universe Group, Loraine had developed a close partnership with the Bryant Group.
The news leak insinuated her as the personal relationship Marco had taken advantage of.
Everyone was aware of Marco's attempts to win Loraine’s favor. As such, this revelation sparked doubt among B many within Universe Group about whether Loraine had used Marco's position for personal benefits.
But that was only a subsidiary concern. The primary issue was the potential harm this scandal could inflict on the Universe Group, leading to suggestions of cutting ties with the Bryant Group for self-preservation.

Misinterpreting her reaction as disapproval of the suggested severance, the department head cleared his throat before continuing, “The Bryant Group's shareholders, many of whom have lost significant investments, are infuriated. They've taken to social media to express their anger, condemning Marco with severe criticism. Saccuse him of treachery, blaming him for the stock price crash and demanding he be held accountable. Miss Torres, if you maintain an association with him, there's a high risk that the scandal will affect you.” Loraine responded with a sneer, “The situation’s blown out of proportion incredibly quickly. Clearly, someone's manipulating this.
I'm sure there’s a significant number of people jumping on the bandwagon to criticizeas well, isn’t there?” The department head squirmed uncomfortably, reluctant to confirm her suspicion.
Reading his reaction, Loraine knew she was right. Without any bltowards the nervous man, she picked up her phone to see the online reaction herself.
As she suspected, she was now the subject of substantial criticism, painted as a fefatale responsible for seducing Marco, leading him astray and causing the downfall of the Bryant Group.
