?Chapter 107:
“OMG, where is Dani? Why hasn’t she said anything yet? I need some updates now!”
As thements flooded in, the hashtag took over every tform.
Yet, Dani stayed quiet and offered no reply.
Meanwhile, the Bet family became the target of public mockery, their reputation being dragged through the dirt.
Richard spent the whole nightpulsively checking the second trending topic:
“Alexander Takes a Hit and Does Nothing?”
Thements were harsh, ripping into both Alexander and the Bet family.
“Ugh, this guy is revolting! Alexander, was it? What does the Bet family even do? Whatever it is, I’m done with them for good!”
“What a joke! Dani literally told him the shop was on basement level one. But instead of clearing things up with Joyce, this spineless guy let the whole…”
Misunderstanding blow up. Now Dani’s been pped, cut off from her family, and herees Alexander, acting like some big shot, offering to pay for Joyce’s shop rent. Where was this ‘generosity’ when it actually counted?”
“I watched the surveince footage and almost lost my lunch. Alexander, are you seriously this shameless? Youpletely overlooked Dani when she was just a regr woman. But now that she’s the CEO of Elite Lux, you’re suddenly crawling out of the woodwork? And offering to take her to dinner? What, you think she needs your charity?”
“Oh my God, check this out—I just found a clip where Richard straight up says Dani wasn’t ‘good enough’ to marry into the Bet family. And he said it in public! Richard’s been dismissing her for years, acting like she’d only ever be some pretty, useless trophy wife!”
“It all makes sense now. Elite Lux just bought thergest plot ofnd in the Northern District to develop amercial center. The Bets are in construction and renovation. Now they’re clearly desperate to coborate with her. That’s why they’re back, offering dinner invites!” Underneath all these furiousments, one word kept popping up, bold and loud.

“Scumbag!”
Richard stood by the tall windows in his study, his back straight, fists tightly clenched behind him. He took a deep breath, trying to steady the growing storm of anger inside him. He spun around to face Alexander, his tone hard and unforgiving.
“I don’t care what it takes.
You will fix your rtionship with Dani.
You’ll make sure we secure that partnership with Phillips Group. Do you understand? The North District project is vital, and we can’t afford to lose it! And what’s going on with those trending topics? They’ve been live for hours, making this family look like fools! Are you so ipetent that you can’t even get them taken down?”
Alexander closed his eyes briefly.
“I’ve tried. The trending topics were pinned by a hacker. Even the admins can’t take them down.”
The sharp sound of a p rang out through the room.
“Idiot!” Richard spat.
“You better listen carefully. Do whatever it takes.”
“Meet with Dani. Clean up this mess. Lock in that partnership.”
Alexander clenched his jaw, his face clouded with frustration.
“Got it.”
As he stepped out of the house, he checked his phone. There was nothing—no calls, no messages from the Harper family. Not a single word of reassurance. It felt as though they hadn’t noticed the storm brewing.
