Chapter 56
However…
She wondered if Edgar had participated in it, and how much he had participated in it.
Seeing that her face was getting colder and colder, Beth asked weakly, “Ms. Lancelot, what are you going
to do?”
Sylvia handed the phone back to her and continued to work. “I don’t have any plans for the time being. You can leave now. It’s almost time to hand in the plan for the female group talent show. I’ll finish my
work first.”
“What!”
Beth was stunned. “Ms. Lancelot, if you ignore this, they’ll only get more arrogant. Things might get
worse.”
Sylvia didn’t answer and just stayed focused on her work.
Beth couldn’t persuade her.
She could not understand what Sylvia was thinking. She could only sigh helplessly and leave the office.
In just a few hours in the morning, the news quickly spread on the Internet and soon became one of the top three trending topics.
Because Sylvia didn’t make any response, it seemed that someone had hyped it up on purpose. At the time, there was a lot of negative news about Sylvia.
There was news saying that Sylvia was once in an orphanage, even her occupation at the Angle Group was exposed.
A large number of media reps swarmed to the Angle Group, waiting for an opportunity to interview her.
At the same time, in the stock market, the Angle Group’s stock fell sharply by 5% in just an hour, and it was still declining.
The rumors on the Internet were all partial to Nancy.
“Miss Nancy is so pitiable. She and Mr. Fallen love each other so much, but this bitch wants to ruin it!”
“Why doesn’t this woman go to hell? Why did she splash red wine on Nancy? She should be arrested for assault, right?”

“Yes, such a mistress deserves to die. She’s indeed an orphan who doesn’t deserve to have any parents.”
“I’m a fan of this company. I’m asking them to expel their employee with bad behavior immediately! That poorly behaved employee will seriously affect my idol’s reputation!”
“Yes.”
“Me too. I strongly support the collective condemnation!”
Nancy was sitting silently on a lounge chair in front of her phone, grinning from ear to ear.
“Bitch, let’s see how arrogant you can be now.”
She believed that sooner or later, the Angle Group would fire a rookie employee like Sylvia decisively in order to stay out of trouble.
If Patric saw Sylvia’s true colors, he would probably give her a rough kick!
Thinking of this, Nancy couldn’t help laughing. Her delicate facial features became a little ferocious because of her exaggerated laughter.
She seemed to have suppressed her laughter for a long time.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve felt so good!
“Without the company and Patric’s support, Sylvia is nothing.
“How is she going to stay arrogant in front of me?
“Sarah’s plans are marvelous. Working with her is worth it.”
Nancy took a sip of tea leisurely.
At the same time, Beth from the Angle Group was also keeping up with the news. It seemed that things were getting worse!
If this went on, she was afraid that Sylvia would lose her job.
Then, she might be fired too.
She couldn’t sit still, but she could only stay at her desk anxiously.
But what was the point of being anxious?
Sylvia was the point.

But as the person involved in all this, Sylvia didn’t seem to care about it at all.
In her office, Sylvia was still in front of the computer, seriously thinking about the plans for the talent
show.
She paid no attention to the news.
Her cell phone suddenly rang at this inopportune time.
She turned her head and saw an unknown number.
At first, he didn’t want to answer it, but this number had called her three times in a row, and it seemed
that it wouldn’t stop until she answered it.
Sylvia was annoyed by the noise.
She wanted to see who it was.
When the phone was connected, a familiar low and hoarse voice was heard.
Listening carefully, there seemed to be a hint of anxiety in the voice, as well as… some other complicated
emotions.
“How can you still be in the mood to work after what happened on the Internet? Are you careless or
stupid?”
Edgar?
Sylvia was stunned at first. She didn’t expect it to be him.
Moreover, after the divorce, she had changed her phone number. How did this man get her contact
information?
Judging from his tone, it seemed that he didn’t know about it. But even if he didn’t know, it must have something to do with his sweetheart.
Sylvia remained silent for a few seconds.
The person on the other end of the line asked again, “Speak. Are you scared?”
Hearing this, Sylvia laughed.
It was not a big deal. Why would she be scared?
“Since you like to imagine so much, Mr. Fallen, I suggest that you write a novel. Maybe you can make a bigger name for yourself than working in the real estate industry.”

“Can’t you be serious? Cut the crap!”
Edgar suddenly realized that they seemed to be bickering with each other as soon as they talked.
“I am being serious. Rather than having time to meddle in my business, you might as well take good care of your fiancee. If she irritates me, she might not be able to bear the consequences.”
The more she spoke, the colder her voice became. “By the way, please stay away from me in the future. As I said, it’s none of your business.”
Edgar was stunned. Before he could refute it, Sylvia hung up.
He wondered, “What is wrong with her?
“Why is she so angry today?”
As soon as Sylvia hung up the phone, it rang again.
This time, it was Tom calling.
“Sylvia, have you thought of a way to deal with it? If necessary, I can clarify it for you first. I think the
Angle Group is good at public relations and should be able to suppress it soon.”
Tom was truly worried. Judging from his tone, there was no doubt that he was anxious.
He was quite loyal and righteous.
Sylvia was very gratified, but she refused. “There’s no need. You’re a popular male star. If you speak up
for me, it will only backfire. Your crazy female fans will rush to the company building and stab me to
death.
“Besides, what I want is not merely to suppress this matter.”
Tom pondered for a moment. “It seems that you’ve got a plan for it then. If you need my help, just let me
know!”
After agreeing casually, Sylvia hung up the phone and continued to work.
Beth had gone to see her twice, wanting to say something, but stopped on second thought. In the end, she said nothing and left while shaking her head.
The matter kept spreading until noon, and its popularity on the Internet was increasing.
The post showing that Mia took a photo with Nancy in the dressing room before the banquet had also become a trending topic. Many accounts began to hype it up, and Nancy was described as being a kind and beautiful girl.

After Nancy found out about it, she specially registered an account and followed Edgar only.
The post about her and Edgar witnessing their love instantly got 50 to 60 thousand views.
She also posted to thank her fans for following her, which once again gave them a good impression of her.
Facing her phone, she was very excited.
“I didn’t expect this to have such an amazing effect. I’m so happy to get a good reputation by stepping on that bitch Sylvia.”
While she was thinking, she got a notification.
She couldn’t wait to click on it. It seemed that she enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.
However…
The message turned out to say: [So you’re the scheming bitch. You didn’t expect that, did you? Bitch, she’s
posted.]
What the hell?
Why did this person scold her? Who posted?
Just as she was wondering, a second and then a third message came one after another, all of which were scolding her.
How could this be?
Could it be… Sylvia?
