Chapter 1103
Perchance, Lore Communications perceived theizens as a fool, who would take that official
statement as an apology to them.
It was possible for them to have that kind of idea.
They assumed that theizens were ordinary citizens, who admired the strong and respected the
powerful people. Thus, theizens would take that as an apology directed at them.
A part of theizens might think so, but unfortunately, the majority were indeed ordinary people.
However, they did not feel so inferior to take an apology statement from the prestigiouspany as
an apology toward them.
All Sonia could say was that Lore Communications had taken theizens lightly by
underestimating them.
In fact, the destructivements were easy to deal with. The issue could have been settled if only
Lore Communications apologized to them sincerely or mentioned them in the statement.
In doing so, she believed that Lore Communications would be able to earn forgiveness since no one
was silly enough to go against someone with power.

Still, thepany did not do that as they might have forgotten about the fact that they were the
instigator. Lte had enraged the public and stirred turmoil in the stock market, so it would not be
wrong to say that Lore Communication used them first.
When they were osted by bacshes, neither did they apologize nor mention theizens.
Therefore, it was obvious that they thought lightly of theizens.
How can the people not be angry and not attack them again? I bet they''re driven to the edge by
now.
Sonia smiled while wondering whose idea was it to release that statement. Was it the public
rtions team or the Lore Family themselves?
If it was the PR team, they could bid their job a sweet goodbye because nopany would want a
troublemaker as their employees. If it was the Lore Family, they were destined to be done for.
Great men''s sons hardly do well. I reckon the Lore Family would not be able to secure their status
for any longer. It''s their shoring to have such a leader.
Sonia shrugged her shoulders with a smile and backed out from Lore Communications'' page to her
own page.
Under hertest post, the number ofments proliferated almost over ten thousandpared to
the time she left.
Raising her eyebrow, she clicked on thement section to have a look of it. It was flooded with
comments asking her to not forgive Lores.
It seemed like they leftments on her page upon reading the infamous apology statement.
Furthermore, there were even some of them who were worried that she might not decipher the
implicit meaning behind that statement. So, they interpreted the content for her before tagging her in
order to let her know about it. They were concerned that Sonia would take it as a sincere apology
and forgive Lore Communications and Lte.
Sonia was touched at that and giggled, prompting Toby to take a nce at her. Although he did not
say anything, it was obvious that he was questioning why she wasughing.
Without hiding anything, she waved her phone and exined, "It''s theizens. They''re cute."
"Cute?" He frowned. "Have you forgotten how they criticized you?"
"Those people are racking their brains to find a way to win thewsuit. They don''t have the guts to
leave anyments here. So, thesements are basically from the good ones." Sonia stuck out
her tongue.
Then, she decided to reply to the most likedment. "Thank you for the reminder. Don''t worry. An
empty apology doesn''t deserve to be forgiven, much less when they excuse a mistake made by an
adult with immaturity. They should''ve sought agreement from the victim on whether to understate
the issue first."
Soon, people screenshotted and posted her reply, bringing it to the trending chart. After all, that
reply from Sonia implied her attitude toward the Lore Family.
She was not going to forgive them.
Almost instantly, everyone rejoiced at her answer and mocked Lore Communications by leaving
comments on their official page. Thepany''s stock price declined to rock bottom.
The whole PR team was dumbfounded, except for their head department—Joshua, who sat in front
of hisputer with a cup of coffee. Looking at the data shown on the monitor, he calmly drank his
coffee. "Told you so. The apology statement mustn''t be released. If President Lore held a live
broadcast in person to apologize to Paradigm and the public, it would''ve been for the best, but you
wouldn''t listen. Look. They''re not holding back with their words."
Grayson''s secretary, Jack, stood behind the head department and saw the datas as well. The stock
price decline made him anxious.
"What else could I do? It''s President Lore''s orders and I''m just a secretary. How could I not obey his
orders?" Jack scratched his head in frustration.
Joshua looked at him. "Can''t you advise him? Frankly speaking, he doesn''t have what it takes to be
a president. He''s meh. If it wasn''t for the Fuller Group''s help, thepany could''ve announced
bankruptcy long ago. So, do you think that his idea is feasible?"
"I am aware that it''s ridiculous, but you know how he is. He doesn''t listen. He''s full of himself. Even
if his strategies are wrong, he won''t listen to others and thinks that his orders are right. We have to
execute his orders or we''ll be asking for trouble. Do you think I would have been able to dissuade
him in this kind of situation?" Jack smiled bitterly.
Joshua sighed. "All of the Lore Family members are scoundrels."
"What do you mean by that?" Jack lowered his head to look at him.
Joshua blurted out, "Miss Lore contacted the technical department to make the issue trending so
that President Fuller wouldn''t be able to appease the online rage. Mr. Whitlock—he works in the
technical department—knew that President Fuller was on the move to bring the issue down and
tried to convince her to stop. Obviously, it won''t do anyone good if we offended him, but Miss
Lte is the same as her father. She''s stubborn as a bull and just wouldn''t listen. She thought that
Toby wouldn''t mind, since her grandfather was his tutor. Mr. Whitlock had no choice but to bear the
pressure and do as he was told. Two hours ago, he resigned from his position. He''s afraid that it
would be difficult for him to escape when President Fuller takes revenge."
Jack heaved a sigh without saying anything.
Joshua set down his cup. "It seems like I gotta think of an escape n too."
"Are you going to resign?" Jack was shocked.
Joshua kneaded his temples. "Yup. Look, President Fuller is genuinely livid and everyone is saying
that he''s going to cut ties with ourpany. Otherpanies are waiting for the show to begin.
Once President Fuller clearly states that it is true, they will join hands to take Lore Communications
down. When the timees, it''ll be difficult for us to hunt for another job. Thus, it''s better to hand in
our resignation letter ourselves. At least, we won''t be dragged into the fray before the war starts.
Jack, we''ve been good friends for more than two years. I think you should give it a serious thought."
Jack fell silent for a moment. "I''ll think about it, but I should report thetest news to President Lore
for now. Let''s talk during dinner."
"Sure. Go on." Joshua waved his hand.
With his documents in hand, Jack walked out of the office and headed to the presidential office at
the top floor. He reported theizens'' reaction to Grayson.
Hearing that, Grayson asked in disbelief, "How did this happen?"
