Chapter 337 Forced Apology
Chapter 337 Forced Apology
Silvia had her people gather all the dirt on the Tao Le family, not just their shady business dealings but also their personal lives. Each piece of dirt could cause a huge scandal online and with the authorities investigating their company, things were getting serious. Their stock prices were plummeting, and it was nerve-wracking.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
"If we had known, we should have done this earlier. They've caused us so much trouble. If we don't reflect on this, they'll think we're easy targets. Little sis, don't worry, I've got your back this time. And there are my own issues too. Can you help me with those? I can't even go out now without everything I do being blown out of proportion. I don't mind, but it's getting annoying, especially for the captain and our third brother. Look at his situation, it's pretty bad. I wanted to visit him, but with our current situation, I'm too scared to go anywhere. I've been cooped up at home going crazy these past few days."
Balk had been stuck at home for the past few weeks, unused to being idle. Though he had written some new songs, he felt restless. He needed to sort things out, starting with the family issues.
"Don't worry about it. We're at the final stage. The authorities are already investigating their family. If they don't want to go down, they'll have to apologize to us. Otherwise, it's over for them."
Silvia was ready for them to come and apologize, and they had no choice but to come.
But when the apology came, it was clearly forced. They sent their father to handle it, while they watched from upstairs, feeling vindicated.
"Last time, this guy met with the boss and hinted not to mess with our girl. Now, he's here to apologize. Look at how ashamed he looks. Dad must be thrilled."
Balk chuckled as he watched his father maintain a serious demeanor despite his obvious happiness. It was amusing how he had to pretend to be serious even though he was pleased.
"After all, they were rivals in love. Dad might have won, but it still bothers him after all these years. If this hadn't happened, who knows when he would have had his revenge. Anyway, Dad benefits from this."
Seeing their father's
hard-to-suppress smile, both siblings remained silent for a moment before calling Bruce to inform him of the day's events. Bruce had been preparing for this, and how they would proceed with their plans after the apology. However, they needed to see how sincere the apology was first.
"Now that that's over, how about sorting out my issues? Mine seem more complicated, and I don't know what this person's problem is. Why do they keep spreading these rumors about me? Can gossip even be called gossip when it's
completely baseless?"
With the family matters resolved, their recent losses would soon recover. However, dealing with the Tao Le family would take longer. But they had no choice; they couldn't continue with them anymore.
Now, it was Silvia's turn. She
seemed a bit anxious. She had
planned to sort out her brother's issues while dealing with their family problems. But her brother's situation seemed more complicated than expected, as someone seemed
intent on dragging him down.
"I just received word that there are more rumors about you circulating."
Silvia showed Balk the latest rumors on her phone. He was shocked to see a photo of him with several girls from high school being used as evidence. How could they twist that into a scandal?
"How can they turn this photo into a scandal? It's ridiculous. But who's behind this? Do they want me dead or something?"
Balk felt really uncomfortable. Once he regained his composure, he vowed to go after those intentionally trying to tarnish his reputation.
