Chapter 1030 Go Clubbing
Although most news outlets dared not offend Lionel, there were always a few who risked it all for the sake of money.
Lynda may not have much else, but she certainly had money. She spent hundreds of millions to acquire several small newspaper agencies,
instructing them to publish the photos taken at Violet Rosette.
There was no need to make a big fuss. She just asked them to spread the word around Hallsbay.
With hundreds of millions in acquisition funds, those small newspaper agencies would naturally be willing to participate.
Their annual turnover was only in the millions, but then Lynda had given them over a hundred million. Even if they were to be retaliated
against by Lionel in the future, they could start over somewhere else.
With money in hand, nothing was a problem.
So, several newspaper agencies exhausted all their resources to spread the few photos taken by the paparazzi to every corner of Hallsbay.
Upon receiving the news, Lionel immediately activated LG Corporation''s public rtions to suppress the matter.
The public rtions of big corporations were indeed impressive. They managed to quell the storm in just an hour or so.
However, Lionel, the person in charge of LG Corporation, had indeed won theplete admiration of all the citizens of Hallsbay with his
ir.
That included Victoria.
Several newspaper agencies gave her special attention, deliberately prepared a folder for her, and then sent her a series of photos of Lionel
carrying Lynda into a hotel room.
At that moment, she was discussing website development matters with the research and development team when an email suddenly popped up
on herptop.
She instinctively clicked on it and saw the videos and photos inside.
At that moment, her mind was aplete nk, filled only with the thought of that man taking another woman to a hotel room.
Especially when he, cradling that woman, pushed open the door and walked in, the scene of the woman leaning in to kiss his earlobe deeply
pierced her eyes and heart.
She suddenly spaced out, and the head of the research and development team called her several times without getting a response. They even
thought there was a problem with their theoretical framework. “Ms. Saunders, do you have anyments on my n? If so, feel free to voice
them. We can improve it together.”

Victoria stared nkly at theputer screen in front of her, her eyes unable to find any focus. They were deep and mysterious, like a cosmic
vortex, seemingly endless at a nce.
The head of the research and development team was about to speak when Vanessa hastily interjected, “Mr. Norris, I apologize. Ms. Saunders
has been affected by some personal matters. Let''s wrap up today''s meeting here. Once Ms. Saunders adjusts her schedule, we can reconvene
for further discussion. As it stands, we can''t really negotiate anything given her current state.”
Peter Norris exchanged nces with a few members of his team, then picked up his documents and left the conference room.
Vanessa sighed silently when she looked at Victoria, who was in a state of despair. Even though this foolish woman keeps saying she doesn''t
love him anymore, that she''s given up, anyone with eyes can see that she''s hopelessly in love with Mr. Gezmond. If there was no love, how
could such a slight disturbance cause such a profound distraction?
“Ms. Saunders, things may not be as you imagine. What you see may not necessarily be the truth. You should trust in Mr. Gezmond''s feelings
for you. You''ve been in love with him for so many years. You should know his character better than anyone else. If he''s truly pursuing Lynda,
I don''t think he''ll bother you anymore. But we''ve all seen how much he''s cared for you in the past month,” Vanessa said.
Victoria gradually regained her senses, her gaze falling on the seat opposite her. She furrowed her brows and asked, “Where are Mr. Norris
and the others?”
Vanessa found it somewhat amusing. Themotion caused by Mr. Norris and his team when they left just now was quite significant, yet this
woman didn''t notice it at all. Isn''t this enough to prove that her heart ispletely filled with Mr. Gezmond?
“You''re not in the best shape, so I asked them to leave for now. Let''s talk about work once you''ve had a chance to gather yourself,” Vanessa
urged.
Victoria furrowed her brows, speaking in a soft voice, “I''m perfectly fine. You overstepped your boundaries by making decisions on your own.
I''m docking a month''s worth of your sry.”
Vanessa chuckled, teasing, “I get paid annually.”
“Then, deduct a year.”
Vanessa looked at her with a hint of amusement, reaching out to pinch her cheek. She chuckled, “How about taking a break? I can take you
out for some fun. What do you say?”
Victoria reached out, pushing the notebook in front of her away, and abruptly stood up from her chair.
“All right. I''ve long since stopped wanting to deal with these messes. Let''s go out and have some fun.”
Inside the CEO''s office at LG Corporation''s subsidiary, Lionel leaned back on the couch while his executive assistant was updating him on the
progress of handling those rumors.
“Mr. Gezmond, that''s pretty much the situation. Those newspaper agencies have limited capabilities, so the rumors haven''t spread beyond
Hallsbay. However, this incident has caused quite a stir in Hallsbay. I''m afraid that Ms. Saunders has already received the news,” the executive
assistant reported.
Lionel reached out, massaging his forehead. I underestimated Lynda''s tactics. That woman is so cunning. She didn''t aim to spread this scandal
far and wide. She just wanted Victoria to see it. There were already many barriers between me and Victoria. Now, with this new development,
things have be even moreplicated. And that''s exactly the effect Lynda wanted. True to form for a sessor groomed by arge
corporation, she wlessly yed the game of heart-piercing strategy and sessfully drove a wedge in my already tenuous rtionship with
Victoria.
Beep!
The phone on the desk rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from the detective he had stationed near the Saunders Group.
“What''s the matter?” Lionel asked.
“Mr. Gezmond, Ms. Saunders and her assistant have left. They are heading toward Aurelian Club.”
Are they going clubbing in broad daylight? It seemed as if Lionel had thought of something, and a smile inevitably curled up on his thin lips.
So, is she getting jealous? Otherwise, given her nature, she wouldn''t indulge herself like this. After all, there''s still a lot of mess waiting for her
to handle at Saunders Group. Now, she has given up all her official duties to have fun and seek thrills, proving that I''ve influenced her
thinking.
“All right. I understand. Send a few people to apany her, ensuring her safety,” Lionel ordered.
After he finished speaking, Lionel immediately ended the call. Rising to his feet, he headed toward the door, saying as he walked, “Prepare the
car. We''re going to Saunders Group.”
Saunders Group? The executive assistant was taken aback. Shouldn''t we go to the club?
“Mr. Gezmond, Ms. Saunders has gone to the club,” the executive assistant said.
“I know. She''s doing her thing, and I''m going to help her managepany affairs,” Lionel replied.
Isn''t that sweet? Mr. Gezmond is truly spoiling his woman with his capabilities. He''s going to personally handle the affairs at Saunders Group.
The employees must be pleasantly surprised by his favor. After all, Mr. Gezmond is the head of the world''srgest mediapany. Managing
Saunders Group is just a flick of his fingers. Moreover, his move is clever. Lynda was trying to drive a wedge between him and Ms. Saunders,
right? If Ms. Saunders is angry, he will help manage herpany and let her have some fun. The executive assistant thought Lionel was
pampering Victoria.
Bailey and Artemis originally nned to go to the resort to have fun.
After seeing the overwhelming amount of gossip about Lionel online, they became worried about Victoria and decided to abandon the trip.
Bailey called Victoria, but it was Vanessa who answered. Vanessa informed her that Victoria was letting off steam at the Aurelian Club.
Bailey chuckled, allowing Artemis to escort her to the club.
