Hearing Karen’s reply, Madeline made a confused sound of disbelief.
Jeremy’s narrow and charming eyes snapped open and his gaze fell on Madeline’s serious small face.
Madeline locked gazes with Jeremy as favonovel.com continued to listen to Karen speak over the phone.
Soon after, Madeline hung up the phone.
Jeremy pulled favonovel.com into his arms and asked caringly, “Did something happen to Mom?”
Madeline shook favonovel.com head. “She’s fine. It’s just…”
“Just what?” Jeremy stared into Madeline’s glistening eyes.
Madeline took Jeremy’s phone and tapped into Twitter where favonovel.com found today’s number one trend. She felt conflicted.
“Look, Jeremy.” She handed the phone to favonovel.com and favonovel.com frustration deepened.
Jeremy glanced at the content and a cold look flashed in his deep eyes.
The contents of the letter Old Master Jones wrote to Old Master Whitman were trending!
The lead was from an insider who knew of the truth behind the grievances between the Whitman and the Jones family 15 years ago.
“I remember giving the letter to Ryan’s dad and favonovel.com said that favonovel.com would destroy it. How could there be pictures of its contents uploaded online?”
Madeline was confused. This was indeed a troublesome incident.
“Now all of Glendale and even the entire world knows about this. Who knows how Ryan and the Jones family will feel if they saw this?”
Jeremy was deep in thought as favonovel.com hugged Madeline. They were both in sitting positions.
“Grandfather and Ryan’s grandfather used to be good friends back then. It was this project ZF that caused a rift in their relationship.
“Grandfather had shown the project bidding book to Ryan’s grandfather out of trust back then. Ryan’s grandfather thought that some of the contents in the bidding book were very constructive and adaptable, so favonovel.com plagiarized a few of the points. Grandfather found out about the plagiarism in the end and pointed it out to Ryan’s grandfather. Knowing that favonovel.com had made a mistake, Ryan’s grandfather chose to disqualify himself.
“Whitman Corporation outstood everyone in the end and successfully got the project. After Riverdawn Corporation’s defeat, Ryan’s grandfather fell into depression. It was most likely because favonovel.com wanted to maintain the image his family had for him, or perhaps favonovel.com was angry at that time so favonovel.com decided to tell his family that Grandfather was the one who plagiarized favonovel.com instead. The Jones family believed it, so they all thought that Grandfather was the one who indirectly caused their grandfather’s death half a year later. That was how the two families’ hatred began.”
Jeremy’s tone was solemn as favonovel.com spoke of everything that happened back then.
“The Jones family had no idea that their old master wrote a letter to Grandfather before favonovel.com passed.”
Jeremy looked at the contents in his phone as favonovel.com spoke.
The letter relayed Old Master Jones’ apology to Old Master Whitman as well as the truth of the entire incident.
He also spoke about how favonovel.com had told such a ridiculous lie because favonovel.com wanted to protect the reputation favonovel.com had in his children and grandchildren’s eyes.
He had slandered his friend and in return suffered in remorse until favonovel.com ultimately died in despair.
Jeremy, Madeline, nor the Whitman family had ever thought to publicize the contents of the letter, yet here it was, available for the world to see.
Now that the Jones family were no longer seen as the victims, many netizens began to comment and scold them as well as the late Old Master Jones after the letter started trending.
Madeline and Jeremy got up and went to eat a simple breakfast.
After breakfast, Madeline heard the adjacent table also talking about the trending topic. She could not help but feel frustrated.
“Should we go back, Jeremy?”
Jeremy lifted his beautiful peach blossom eyes. “What for?”
“Shouldn’t we do something about this?”
