Chapter 283 A Complete Victory
Josh felt irritated by Eric’s tone.
“Aren’t we friends? How can you be mad at me when you have no conclusive evidence that it was Kelly
who did it?”
Josh was supportive of Eric pursuing Abigail. However, he was frustrated at Eric because he was
using Kelly without solid proof, all for Abigail’s sake.
Josh was his closest friend, and he hoped that, in addition to Eric’s feelings for Abigail, the man would
also approach this situation rationally, especially since Kelly was Josh’s sister.
Eric’s direct suspicion of Kelly seemed to disregard his feelings as a friend.
In a gold tone, Eric said, “I’ve known you for many years, and I trust you. But I don’t know Kelly, so I
have no reason to believe her. Shouldn’t you consider the time you’ve known her? Just tell me
Thav if she knows your password.”
“How could she possibly know that? Besides, I will find out how my money was transferred to Abigail,”
Josh exined.
“I trust Abigail, and I’ll always stand by her side.” Eric dered his determination and promptly hung up
the phone.
It was peaceful and quiet at L.Moon Studio throughout the morning. However, during lunchtime, Katie
published a post on Instagram.
There was no caption, but she tagged the official ount of Pendorf Police Station and attached
photos of Chad in the hospital, along with a medical report confirming his injuries. His eyes were
swollen, his face had numerous wounds, and he had a cast on one leg.

This post stirred up a significantmotion.
Abigail frowned as she clicked on it and saw that thements were filled with conspiracy theories.
‘Katie has been renowned in the jewelry business for a century. Even if they are making customized
jewelry for someone, do they really need to force them to buy pearls from someone else? Besides,
doesn’t Katie have the connections and resources to purchase Tahitian pearls?‘
‘Katie once released limited edition jewelry with Tahitian pearls. Who knows how much of what na
wrote is true? Moreover, ever since her studio became well–known, it’s been frequently trending online.
How can she prove her innocence?‘
‘Let’s hope theizens stay rational. Even if Chad appeared overly aggressive in the video, beating
someone to the point of severe injury is too much, isn’t it? Are people from Pendorf this fierce? I’m
scared to visit the studio now in case I say something wrong and get beaten.‘
Clearly, there were sock puppets trying to shape the narrative.
However, Chad’s injuries were real. The question remained–who was responsible for this incident?
Abigail was skeptical of someone, but she couldn’t be sure.
Faced with Katie’s attempt to manipte the situation, Abigail wasn’t worried. The fact that Chad
wasn’t causing her trouble anymore was a positive development. As for the sock puppets, it wouldn’t
affect her. After all, she was innocent, and any investigation would only prove her
innocence.
“Will this have any impact on us?” Abigail’s assistant expressed concern, her face filled with worry.
“We didn’t hurt him, so how could it affect us? But judging from the way he speaks, I’m sure he’s bound
to get himself into trouble sooner orter,” Abigail calmly replied before eating her meal again.
Her assistant sighed without another word.
After they finished their meal, the police from Pendorf Police Station replied to Katie’s post.
‘Upon further investigation, it is confirmed that during his visit to Pendorf, Chad Lae threatened
and intimidated one of the responsible individuals from L.Moon, Abigail Quinn. After a failed attempt to
force her into a business deal with him, he privately contacted Ms. Quinn’s grandmother. He is
suspected of deceiving the elderlydy into befriending him. While deceiving the elderly woman, Mr.
Lae also personally visited Ms. Quinn’s home. After being driven away by her, he continued to
threaten her without any remorse. He was seen by a passionate young man who identified himself as
Mr. Hopkins. He misunderstood Mr. Lae to be a morally reprehensible man. In order to stand up
for justice on behalf of women, Mr. Hopkins took the matter into his own hands and gave Mr. Lae
a beating during the night. Our department has strongly reprimanded Mr. Hopkins, who has caused
harm. We have also imposed a fine of 300. We hope that all members of the public will exercise
caution in their words and actions and refrain from crossing ethical boundaries at any time and in any
ce.
Upon reading this statement, Abigail nearly sprayed the water she was drinking onto herputer
screen.
On the other hand, Luna burst intoughter while clutching her stomach. “Chad is insane! How could
he deceive Old Mrs. Quinn into being friends with him?”
Abigail wiped her mouth with a tissue, pondering whether ‘Mr. Hopkins‘ was actually Cameron Hopkins.
She scrolled through thements to find that everyone was having a goodugh.
‘I hope I misunderstood the text about befriending and tricking the olddy. Otherwise, Chad is truly
abnormal. I must also say that this gossip is genuinely hrious. Mr. Hopkins, the passionate young
man, sounds like a modern–day Spider–Man. Even though we don’t know what he looks like, he
sounds pretty cute.
Mr. Hopkins did a good deed but got fined 300? Being a passionate young man surely isn’t easy! Katie,
please don’t cry foul. Threatening someone by showing up at their home to do business? It’s
challenging my worldview. Is this the modern way of conducting business? If they are not stirring issues
on social media, they’re showing up at people’s homes in real life. Can’t they engage in a more
sophisticated form of businesspetition?‘
‘Is Katie’s social media filled with sock puppets? The police have confirmed that Katie’s CEO, Chad
Lae, threatened people, deceived the elderly about pearl purchases, and feigned being a victim. It
is truly mind–boggling! What kind of CEO is he? Has he lost his mind? He’s the worst. corporate
executive of the year. Such oundish actions can only be carried out by someone foolish.
