Submitting To My Billionaire Ex-Wife by Allison Mild ( Genevieve)

Chapter 97

After all, Samantha’s influence in the industry was evident, serving as the final judge for major domestic and international film festivals. Since the beginning of her career, she had almost no scandals.

However, as she aged, people began discussing her personal life.

She had never personally admitted to anything, and there was no concrete evidence. No one knew the truth.

Today, with rumors and speculations of this nature, it was a significant blow to Samantha.

Removing the trending topics might make it seem like she and those on her side were guilty and trying to divert attention. However, responding to them would inevitably expose her private life.

Regardless of the approach, Samantha found herself cornered.

Public opinion was developing too rapidly.

While Eagle Entertainment pressured the platforms, the other party was also putting in pressure, leading to a more polarized

discussion.

Some believed Samantha, seeing this as a conspiracy.

Others were entirely deceived, following the trend of discussing the mysterious backer behind Samantha.

Saman

Finally, Genevieve called Samantha,

Samantha was so angry she couldn’t even eat.

Genevieve said gently, “Mom, it’s time you give Dad a proper title after all these years.”

“What? I’m doing this for his good. Otherwise, he’ll be watched every time he goes out. Besides, if I compromise, wouldn’t it be admitting defeat?”

Samantha was angry and anxious while Darrell rubbed her shoulders. “I think our daughter is right. Why don’t I step in? Everything will be resolved. I have status, reputation, and money. What’s there to fear? We’ve been together for decades, and seeing you being slandered like this hurts my heart!”

Samantha sighed and leaned on his shoulder. “I am a public figure. If you announce our relationship, it will be blown out of proportion by others. I don’t want you to be speculated and gossiped about!”

Darrell chuckled. “I’m not afraid. I didn’t do anything wrong, so I’m not afraid of being discussed.”

Samantha fell silent for a moment and nodded.

On the other hand, Darrell picked up the phone and told Genevieve, “Don’t worry. I will see the light of day soon!”

Soon, a statement from Lawrence Group directly pushed Samantha and Darrell’s names to the top of the trending topics.

The statement read: [Mrs. Samantha Lawrence and Mr. Darrell Lawrence were married 20 years ago. Their relationship is stable. The recent unfounded rumors are attempts to shift public attention away from scandals. Our company will hold those responsible accountable]

It was signed with the handwritten signatures of Darrell and Samantha.

In an instant, this news was surged with comments.

Those who had spread rumors about Samantha immediately deleted their accounts, and their competitor also began automatically withdrawing the trending topics.

They had initially intended to use the entertainment industry’s heat to shift attention but unexpectedly hit a hard wall.

Samantha tumed out to be the lady of Lawrence Group, the wife of Darrell, People were dumbfounded.

Moreover, Lawrence Group explicitly stated that this was a conspiracy to divert attention. This made the news that Hoffman Group tried to suppress to rekindle.

The comments section had a turn in the tide.

[I only thought they were a good match, but I didn’t expect them to be a couple

[No wonder Mr. Lawrence attended every award ceremony. It turned out he was accompanying his wife]

[Doesn’t anyone find it abrupt that the news of Mr. Hoffman’s affair was suddenly withdrawn?

[Does Mr. Hoffman think people in the entertainment industry are easy to bully? They are much cleaner than him All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

[What Hoffman Group did was underhanded. Mr. Lawrence was angry and protected his wife“]

[There’s no comparison between the two rumors. They were both chairmen!]

[It was interesting how Mrs. Hoffman got together with Mr. Hoffman. It seems he can’t differentiate who he sleeps with!]

Things tensed up between Hoffman Group and Lawrence Group.

However,

the Hoffman family’s low–handed approach led to them being reprimanded, and the comment section was closed

At Hoffman Group, silence prevailed in the office.

Presley’s face looked gloomy, and Quincey was furious.

He scolded, “Is this how you handle things? We spent so much money acquiring your company. Eagle Entertainment hasn’t even taken action yet, and you’re already surrendering. What use are you to us? Now, find a way to take down the news. I don’t want to see any more gossip about this scandal!”

The employees kept their heads down, not daring to speak.

The people of the public relations department were also silent, not to mention the director of the newly acquired Sidus

Entertainment.

They looked so pale and didn’t dare to say a word

A member of the public relations department couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Presley Hoffman’s secretary only wanted to extort money from him. We have already paid 600 thousand dollars, and she stopped making trouble. It was the people of Sidus Entertainment who had to offend Samantha. Now, we’ve offended not only Eagle Entertainment but also Lawrence Group. The stock price of Hoffman Group fell when the market opened…

been captured by the paparazzi. Besides, to suppress Mr. Presley Hoffman’s scandal, we needed a bigger scandal to expose!”

Quincey had a contorted expression, and she threw the cup in front of her on the ground in anger. “I told you to arrest that woman for fraud, but you gave her money. Who agreed to that?”

The people of the public relations department exchanged glances before they lowered their heads to look at Presley

done.

This time, the woman was the most ignorant one, actually daring to threaten him.

At this point, things were out of control.

“That’s enough. Do you want to make it worse?” Presley scolded, and Quincey reluctantly turned her head to endure it.

In the end, it was all his fault.

Anthony, who had been silent all along, seemed indifferent, even though the scandal involved his family.

The public relations department looked at Anthony and said, “Mr. Anthony Hoffman, why don’t we take the initiative to apologize to the Lawrence family? It’s much better than letting things get worse!”

It was impossible to discern what Anthony was thinking.

On the side, Presley nodded. “I think that’s the only way. It’s best to have them cooperate in deleting their explanations. Ask your

mom to pay a visit with you.”

Quincey jumped to her feet. “I’m not going. Isn’t it embarrassing enough?”

She thought, Samantha is only a stupid actress. She married someone no worse t than me and had a great career and love. No wonder she dared to ignore me and chatted with Genevieve in the parking lot.

Presley looked at her indifferently. “Well, then don’t go. Let’s see what everyone is going to say next. No one can escape from this!”

Then, Presley stood up, snorted coldly, and walked out.

Quincey’s expression changed, and she trembled with anger.

Presley had caused all this trouble, but now everyone turned their attention to her. Hence, she felt aggrieved.

Just when she thought she didn’t need to stay on guard of the Hoffman family anymore, as Frank and Margaret went abroad, her

husband caused massive trouble.

Anthony remained silent the entire time. He was already accustomed to his parents‘ affairs.
