The Broken Warrior's Daughter

Chapter 661

After leaving the company, Sadie immediately rushed back home.

She looked at the photos she had backed up, her eyes filled with satisfaction.

She had already instructed her assistant to contact the entertainment news reporters.

With these photos in hand, she could easily frame Harriet with a scandalous reputation overnight.

Thinking that, she inquired about the current situation from her assistant at once.

The assistant made the call. They had already arranged for the news to be released.

All articles were edited and ready for her review.

"No need to show me. The more sensational, the better!"

She instructed, "Keep it confidential. No one must know it was me."

After these brief instructions, the call was disconnected.

The news spread rapidly, with Sadie even hiring online influencers to stir up the controversy.

Within an hour, photos of Harriet and Delbert had become explosive news.

Negative public opinion quickly shifted towards Harriet, accusing her of betraying her husband and engaging in an affair with her assistant in Imperium.

Women who had previously admired Delbert now turned against Harriet upon learning of her alleged misconduct.

They even went to great lengths to find her residence and spread even bigger lies.

Public opinion didn't require any cost.

A few words were enough to strip a person of their innocence.

The scandal erupted swiftly, catching Harriet and Delbert unaware as they were immersed in their own blissful world.

The next morning, as they opened the door to leave for work, they were met with a crowd of angry people demanding an apology from Harriet.

"Harriet, you deceitful woman, you finally show your face! We've been waiting here for you! Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"I can't believe you're actually cohabitating with your assistant behind Mr. Delbert's back. That's really shameless!"

The lead woman shouted, accusing Harriet of infidelity with her assistant while being married to Delbert.

Upon hearing that, Harriet was stunned.

Could it be that they had mistaken her for someone else?

She had never done anything to betray Delbert.

"Is there a misunderstanding? This’s my husband. We have a good relationship. I’ve never..."

"Harriet, you’re a liar. The evidence is clear. How dare you lie! You were publicly intimate with your assistant in the company. There is evidence online. Do you still want to argue?"

Before Harriet could respond, she was interrupted.

She finally realized that she had been set up.

Recalling Sadie's harsh words from the day before, she was certain Sadie was behind it all.

Delbert and Harriet exchanged a glance, falling into silence as people raised their phones to record.

Some even livestreamed the confrontation, demanding Harriet apologize publicly and admit her wrongdoing.

"If you apologize in front of everyone today, leave Delbert, and run off with your assistant, we'll let this go!" they demanded.

"You are not worthy of Mr. Delbert! Hiding behind this facade, you‘re actually a fickle woman at heart!"

The insults grew harsher, prompting Delbert to intervene.

"Shut up!" he roared, protecting Harriet and leading her back inside.

As he turned around, Delbert's gaze swept through the crowd and happened to catch a glimpse of a very familiar figure in the corner.

The person wore a hat and sunglasses, covering up well, but couldn't escape Delbert's eyes.

It was Sadie, the real manipulator behind the scenes of public opinion!
