Chapter 158 Public Pressure

It was as clear as day that this video was to exert pressure on Nicole. Daniella is using her life to threaten me in the

video. The meaning behind this video is probably that Daniella will take her own life if I don’t drop the lawsuit.

All of a sudden, Nicole felt rather amused. I wonder what’s going on in Daniella’s brain that she’s threatening me

with her own life.

At the thought of this, Nicole closed her eyes slightly. When she clicked open to view the webpage, she discovered

that all the trending topics were about her and Daniella.

‘The Reason Behind Daniella’s Suicide.’

‘Lisa Being Adamant Caused Daniella to Commit Suicide.’

‘Heartless Lisa Has No Regard for Human Life.’

…

Though enraged, Nicole was also amused as she looked at these trending topics. Will those who play victims always

have someone to defend them? Even the issue of Daniella falsely claiming my design draft has somehow become

justifiable. Since when did the netizens become so compassionate?

After viewing that interview video, nearly all the netizens had turned into saints. One by one, they left their

comments.

‘Actually, Daniella did nothing wrong. If Lisa directly stood up and cleared off the issue in the first place, it would not

have turned into such a big fuss. Daniella simply wants to give a clean slate to the design industry!’

‘Yeah, that’s right. Daniella, please stop having suicidal thoughts. We all stand by you. As a Chief Designer, Lisa’s

tolerance seems rather low. Daniella was just trying to do good deeds. Why can’t she just let this slide now that

things are over? Why is she still pressing hard on Daniella? Could it be that she’ll be satisfied only if the person is

dead?’

‘If Lisa still proceeds with the lawsuit, it just means she has no regards for one’s life. She’s a murderer!’

…

At once, these comments were instantly pinned on top of each post, and the number of likes immediately reached

over ten thousand.

I’m simply protecting my self-interest. Yet, people said I have no regards for human life and labelled me as a

murder. How utterly ridiculous!

Scrolling further down the comment box, Nicole discovered that there were still netizens who had clear

consciences.

‘If Lisa didn’t stand up to reveal the truth, Daniella could have gained both fame and fortune by falsely claiming

ownership of the draft. Now, she’s pretending to be the victim once she was exposed? How shameless!’

‘Why would Lisa be blamed when it was clearly Daniella’s fault?’

However, it was a pity that these clear-headed comments were suppressed to the very bottom of the comment

section.

With ease, Nicole could guess the video was merely a self-directed play by both Queenie and Daniella. Their

purpose was to force Nicole to withdraw the lawsuit. However, they had miscalculated, because Nicole would

definitely not drop the lawsuit!

Still, Nicole felt it was amusing. All these netizens did not even bother to understand the truth behind the whole

matter and dwelled on the ‘blame game’. Embracing the righteous spirit of keyboard warriors, they stood by the so-

called weak party and started making malicious comments.

But I must say this tactic employed by Queenie is indeed effective. Daniella pretended to look pitiful and committed

suicide. At once, all the blames are directed at me.

At the thought of that, Nicole curled the edge of her lips. I don’t think Daniella will actually have the courage to end

her life even if I don’t withdraw the lawsuit!

Feeling slightly tired, Nicole rubbed her eyes. In her mind, she combed through the whole matter.

Nicole had decided to proceed and sue Daniella for the matter regarding her false claim on the design draft, and

Nicole was confident that she would win the lawsuit. However, the public opinion on the Internet was not as friendly

as Nicole had hoped.

Therefore, the critical issue to be solved now was to decide how she should react to the public opinion on the

Internet.

The clothing brand under the cooperative tie between F&M Apparel and the Gardner Corporation is about to be

launched. I can’t afford to get into more troubles at such a crucial period.

All of sudden, Nicole felt rather upset. That feeling was even greater than when the netizens condemned her for

plagiarism. At the very least, those who were not aware of the truth would only think it was Nicole’s fault when they

came across the plagiarism scandal on the Internet.

However, in this matter, anyone with a keen mind instantly knew who was the one at fault. Yet, most netizens still

chose to stand on the wrong side.

Feeling her temples throbbing, Nicole closed her eyes.

After resting for a while, Nicole reopened her eyes. She had always been a strong-headed person. The more one

disallowed her to do something, the more she would want to do it!

I can’t wait to see what Queenie will do if I insist on proceeding with the lawsuit!
