Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 1068 Sydney and Luke Clarified the Rumor

In this way, they could use the media to get back at Erin.

The woman bribed the media, hired a lot of internet trolls, and used the McDaniel Group's PR department to start this trending rumor. She tried to convince the netizens that Sydney cheated on Julien with a man.

But people knew that Sydney and Luke were good friends. The two families were very close. It was unlikely that they were in that kind of relationship.

Therefore, as soon as Luke clarified it, the netizens would realize they were manipulated.

The person wanted to use the netizens' sense of justice and manipulate them to attack Sydney. Why else would Luke's face be blurred out in the photo? Obviously, the person didn't want people to know it was Luke.

Once the netizens realized they had been used and fooled, they would be mad. They would definitely attack the person who manipulated them.

By then, the McDaniel Group and Erin would be in trouble.

Luke and Julien explained it so clearly. If Sydney still didn't understand it, she was a stupid woman.

She nodded and accepted their idea.

"Julien, I think I will follow Luke's suggestion. Send him the surveillance footage when you get it." Sydney said as she looked at Julien.

Julien nodded slightly. "All right."

Julien then turned to Luke with cold eyes. "Don't screw it up."

Luke grunted, "I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I won't screw it up."

"I hope so." Julien averted his eyes and said nothing more.

Just then, Julien's cell phone rang again.

It wasn't a call, but a message from the IT department reporting about the surveillance footage.

Reading the message, Julien curled his lips and said, "The surveillance footage has been restored. They're sending it to me right away."

He handed Sydney his cell phone so she could send it to Luke.

Sydney took the phone and smiled, "Great."

"Besides the surveillance footage, the rumor and topics are deleted," Julien added.

The IT department reported that as well.

They had deleted the rumor and topics twice before, but the topics had been brought back by the McDaniel Group.

After learning that it was the McDaniel Group that brought back the rumor, Julien had Zach call the McDaniel Group and they didn't dare to do it again.

Now the rumors were gone from the internet.

"Let me check it." Hearing Julien's words, Luke stopped playing the video game and opened Twitter.

Sure enough, as Julien said, the rumor and topics about Sydney were gone.

Sydney didn't check it. She was sending Luke the surveillance footage.

She didn't want to check it and she didn't think she needed to because she believed Julien. Since Julien said the rumor and topics were gone, she believed they were.

She didn't need to check it herself.

Just then, Luke burst out laughing. "Netizens are so funny. After they realized the rumor and topics were gone, they knew we interfered. Many left messages on Syd's Twitter saying 'Since you did it, acknowledge it. Don't delete the topics.' They're insane!"

The netizens loved gossip.

But Sydney and Julien weren't as outraged as Luke.

Sydney gave Julien back his cell phone. Then she looked at Luke and said nonchalantly, "I had expected this when Julien had the topics deleted. People were so excited about the rumors. Suddenly, the topics were gone and they had nothing to gossip about. Of course, they're angry. Then they turn to my Twitter account and attack me. I've been through a couple of such attacks. I'm not surprised."

Sydney shrugged her shoulders. She was used to it.

Luke looked at his phone and gave a disgusted look. "Netizens haven't learned their lesson. Last time we sued so many people for spreading rumors. It hasn't been many days and they're doing it again. They're so annoying!" Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Julien picked up Sydney's glass of water and spanned it around. His eyes dimmed when he saw the lipstick mark on the glass. Then he pressed his lips to the lipstick mark and took a sip. "Those people don't care about fines or detention. When they get another rumor next time, they'll probably do it again. There will always be people like that. We can't ban people from doing that."

After that, Julien put down the glass.

Sydney glared at Julien, and the tips of her ears went a little red.

Julien's glass of water was right in front of him, but he grabbed her glass, and he deliberately pressed his lips on her lipstick mark, which was like an indirect kiss.

Julien ignored Sydney's glare. He smiled gently at her and asked, "Have you sent Luke the surveillance footage?"

"Yes." Sydney replied when she snatched the glass from Julien's hand. Then she pushed Julien's glass toward him and said, "Here's your glass."

Julien did not respond.

She was forbidding him to drink from her glass.

Julien cast an unhappy glance at the glass in Sydney's hand.

Coincidentally, Luke, who was sitting across from him and was receiving the surveillance footage, caught the scene.

Luke showed a smug face. "Great!"

Julien's face darkened. "Do your job."

Luke let out a snort and stopped talking.

Sydney picked up her phone. "I should tweet the clarification now."

"I'll post a tweet, too." Julien picked up his phone as well.

Even though the rumors didn't mention Julien, he was also involved in the incident.

After all, he was Sydney's boyfriend.

If Julien didn't speak out, only Sydney and Luke's clarification wouldn't convince people.

If Julien didn't say anything, people would assume that the rumor was true, so Julien decided to post a clarifying tweet.

At the same time, the three all took out their cell phones and started posting clarifying tweets.

Sydney was the first to tweet. [I've heard about the rumor. It's not true. I would never betray @Julien. The guy in the photo is my friend, @Luke. We went to the hotel to meet with the president of Port City Branch of Mediana National Bank to talk about a loan. The rumor is a lie. We will file a lawsuit against @the McDaniel Group and @the Squirrel team to protect our interests. I will never accept a negotiation. In addition to that, I will have my lawyers sue all the media outlets and internet users who spread the rumors and made up the story.]

As soon as Sydney sent out this clarification, it immediately hit the top of the trending topics list.

That was Julien's arrangement.

Julien instructed the PR department that as soon as Sydney posted the clarification tweet, they should make it to the top of trending topics, so netizens would see it immediately.

That was how Chaim saw Sydney's tweet.

Chaim didn't hear about the rumor. Julien's fund last night saved Chaim's seat, so he had a lot to do. He didn't have time to pay attention to what was going on online.

Chaim's assistant told him about the rumor. Sydney mentioned Chaim in her tweet, so he thought he better show his support.

Julien had just done him a huge favor, so he couldn't stay silent. He immediately retweeted Sydney's tweet.
