Rebirth Of Vengeance

Chapter 187.

Cody lowered his voice and said, "Mrs. Simpson released an official statement online to prevent the company's

stock from plummeting. She's publicly cut ties with you both personally and professionally. From now on, she

won't intervene in your company or any of your affairs." Vance blinked, and tears immediately welled up in his

eyes. He thought, 'Is Mom serious?’ He couldn't understand why she would do this to him.

He quickly wiped away the tears, forcing himself to stay composed. Looking at Cody, he said firmly, "Find a way

to fix this. | can't afford to let my only company go under."

Cody kept his head down, pursing his lips in silence.

Vance's gaze turned icy. "What are you waiting for? Get moving! Do whatever it takes to bury the trending topic."

Cody shook his head, his expression troubled. "Mr. Simpson, it's no use. What you said earlier can't be explained

away, and it was live-streamed. Everyone knows now that Natalie was brought into the Simpson family as a

stepping stone for Ms. Simpson.

"And those photos-they're obvious fakes. Experts can spot the edits right away. Now the narrative has flipped

completely, and everyone can see you were trying to set Natalie up."

"Get out! | don't care what it takes. Bury that trending topic!" Vance roared, his frustration boiling over. For the

first time, he didn't know what to do.

Wendy had always been the backbone of their family and the company before. No matter what happened, she

would always step in and fix it. However, this time, she had left him.

Vance was panicking, completely losing his composure. "I'll go to see Easton. You hurry up and deal with the

trending topic." Vance rushed back to his office, grabbed his car keys, and headed out. There were only two

people who could fix everything/ for him. He relied on his mom for everyday issues, and for serious crises, he

turned to Easton.

To him, Easton was someone who would always drop everything for him.

Meanwhile, Natalie sat in the car, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Luna. "Having relatives like this

is quite exhausting, isn't it?"

Luna, being straightforward, exploded with indignation. "Why even bother with family like that, Natalie? You'd be

better off without them. All they do is schagainst you, and the moment you're no longer useful, they toss

you aside.

"Alright, how about | take you out for sfood? Something delicious will cheer you up!"

Natalie shook her head with a soft smile on her lips. "Didn't we just eat? Let's head back to work."

Natalie knew the rumors were bound to collapse. She had to make sure that the fashion show would be a

success and that Jennifer could never becan actress again.

She was determined to make Jennifer walk the path she had taken earlier. She was also set on uncovering the

man backing Jennifer and ensuring he couldn't harm Gordon.

As Luna drove back, Natalie got a call from Maurice. "Are you okay, Natalie?" Maurice's deep voice was filled with

concern.

Natalie smiled faintly, her tone calm. "I'm fine, Maurice. I'm on my way back to the office right now. Don't worry

about me. | can take care of myself."

Maurice replied, "Alright, I'm waiting for you downstairs at your office. See you in a bit."

"Got it!" Natalie replied

Almost immediately, her phone lit up with calls from Tiana, Zoe and James, each of them checking in on her. She

reassured them one by one, letting them know she was fine.

Meanwhile, chaos erupted online. Vance was hit by the sheer volof criticism. For the first time, he

experienced what it felt like to be at the center of an intescandal. In the past, he had felt smug watching

people hurl insults at Natalie. However, reading the countless comments branding him an asshole and liar, he

was consumed with rage, yet completely powerless to refute them. He knew this was all part of Natalie's plan.

Then again, he remembered that he was the one who started this mess by slandering Natalie online.

He thought, 'So this is what it feels like to be vilified. If only Natalie had stayed in her impoverished town and out

of my way, none of this would have happened!

As Vance parked his car at his company's entrance, his phone rang-it was Jason. "Did you see the live stream?

Natalie is so cunning! She completely setup!" Vance burst out.

Jason said calmly, "Didne tell you to stop being so cruel to Natalie right after you cback? She didn't do

anything wrong. You're the one who provoked her first."

Jason's tone remained steady, but he knew his stubborn younger brother wouldn't listen. Vance was determined

to help Jennifer.

Jason's words hit hard. "Natalie is our younger sister. She was taken away as a baby and she didn't have a choice

in any of this. And yet, you're hurting her for the sake of Jennifer. Think about what you're doing, Vance." Before

Vance could respond, Jason ended the call abruptly.

"Hello? Jason?" Vance was furious but didn't dwell too long on Jason's scolding. He stepped out of the car,

heading straight for Easton's office. However, as he approached the entrance, a security guard blocked his path.

Vance frowned. "You don't recognize me, do you? I'm the future brother-in-law of your boss. Let him know I'm

here and tell him to cdown right now."

The security guard looked unimpressed. "Sorry, Sir. Mr. Garcia has instructed us not to let you in. Please leave."

Vance froze. He thought, 'Did Easton know | was coming? And he didn't want to see me." Anger boiled over as he

pulled out his phone and called Easton.

To his surprise, the call connected. Vance sounded excited. "Easton, you saw the live stream, right? Natalie set
