Chapter 320 Firm Denial

No one else would have done it.

‘Nope. Cameron told me about it. He still treats you like you’re one of his bosses. Sean shifted all the blame onto the innocent Cameron.

Abigail bit her lip and responded to his text. Cameron takes such good care of me. I’ll get him a gift. Thank him for me.”

The reply left Sean with a heavy heart.

Without receiving a response, she set her phone down. Her mind was now free of any lingering

concerns.

The next day, Abigail stayed in the hotel waiting for Tony’s call. She took the chance to discuss the promotional schedule for the designs for Freshie TV with Ronaldo.

“Do you think it’s enough only to release a promotional video in September? Must we wait until December?” He expressed his desire for an earlier program release.

She reassured him, “Not to worry. I have a unique design to unveil, and I’ll handle the program’s promotion as well. Publicity won’t be an issue..

He looked at her silently for a moment before saying, “I haven’t even seen the design yet. How will I know if it’s good enough?”

She responded, “You won’t be able to see it. This design is part of a collaboration with a special industry, and I’ve signed a non-disclosure agreement.”

“Fine. It’s only a few days till September. Even if I disagree, I can’t do anything about it,” Ronaldo said, although he had faith in Abigail’s designs. There were always risks involved in creating a program, as many directors and production crews thought a show would be a massive success, only for it to turn into a failure,

“Trust me. I won’t let you down,” she promised.

He was about to speak when there was a knock on the door. “I’ll get it,” Then, he leaped to his feet.

As soon as the door opened, Lacey huffed, “Do you think just because you came in person- Ronaldo? What are you doing here?”

Ronaldo pulled her into the room while questioning, “Are you here to apologize or to start a fight?” He easily dragged her in before closing the door behind her. “Apologize to Ms. Quinn!” He stood in front of the door and instructed with a rare display of sternness.

“Why should I apologize? I wasn’t the one who sent those messages! Her haters did it!” Lacey crossed her arms and retorted haughtily. She had no intention of admitting her wrongdoings.

“Why are you lying when there’s even an audio recording?” Ronaldo sounded noticeably angry.

Abigail sat on the couch and eyed Lacey indifferently. She suddenly realized there was more to Lacey than she let on.

“Aren’t there a ton of platforms where you can use AI to change a person’s voice? Some people. even got conned out of their money with Al-created videos of their friends and family! Why would I stoop so pick a fight with her?” Lacey staunchly defended herself with a slew of reasonable-sounding excuses. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“You’re certain it wasn’t you, correct?” Abigail asked.

Lacey rolled her eyes at Abigail. “Anthony is my fiance. Why would I pick a fight with you? Do you think I have nothing better to do? And you, what a joke you are to come and complain to my parents when all you have is some texts and a fake audio recording. Are you even an adult?

Abigail nodded. “Since it’s not you, that makes things easy. I’ll file a police report. They can trace the numbers to see who did it. Since it’s not you, I won’t have to show any mercy. If they’re students, I’ll just have to make sure it becomes a part of their juvenile record. If they’re already working, I’ll make sure this leaves a mark on their careers. I won’t let anyone get away with this.” Once she finished speaking, she clearly spotted Lacey tremble..

“You’re so petty, Ms. Quinn. You have so many haters. Are you going to catch them all?” Lacey stubbornly retorted.

“If they had limited their actions to posting scathing comments on Twitter or sending me private. messages, I might not have taken any action. However, my phone number has never been. disclosed. The fact th these online harassers could employ multiple phone numbers to insult me suggests that someone has breached my privacy. Such an intrusion demands a serious response.”

Abigail maintained her composure, wondering if Lacey truly believed she could outwit her. She held a strong conviction that Lacey, like many others on the internet, had a limited. understanding of the law. Lacey might have thought she could craft a flawless lie to evade consequences, but in reality, she was only digging a deeper hole for herself and her friends.

Ronaldo intervened, “Lacey, are you still going to lie about this? Ms. Quinn approached your parents to give you a chance. Don’t let your parents suffer because of your actions.”

Lacey vehemently denied, “What do you mean I lied? I didn’t lie!”

He smiled at Abigail and proposed, “Why don’t you allow me to delve into this further and explore the possibility of resolving it privately before considering a police report?”

“Fine. Abigail agreed. She was willing to do this for his sake. It was evident to anyone with a discerning eye that Lacey was being dishonest. If a police report were filed, those responsible for her actions would face consequences. Moreover, Lacey’s parents were not ordinary individuals. If news of their daughter’s actions spread online, it could tarnish their reputation and draw them. into the controversy.

Ronaldo dragged Lacey out of Abigail’s room.

As they left the hotel, she wrestled free from his grip and seethed, “Has that two-faced b*tch cast a spell on you? I knew she was a sly one! She keeps saying she and Anthony are nothing more than friends. These fake b*tches like to use the same excuse. In the end, they’re just attention-seeking whores who rely on their looks!”
