Chapter 169: Chapter 169
Lucas Harlow glanced at him, "Did you send a private message to Lawrence Winters? What did you ask her?"
"I asked her if she knows this ’Nora Winters’... They’re both senior students in the public relations department at Capital City University!"
The assistant didn’t raise his head, continuing to send private messages to "Lawrence Winters" on Weibo.
Lucas Harlow rubbed his temples impatiently, "Stop slacking off, go find my manager, ask for a few days off for me. I need to go home and rest for a few days."
"Huh?! Don’t you have a few important scenes to shoot tonight?!" The assistant immediately forgot about the gossip, jumped up, and argued with Lucas Harlow.
"That’s your problem, you go coordinate, let them shoot someone else’s scenes first, I’m feeling a bit unwell and need to rest." Said Lucas Harlow, standing up and walking away.
He walked so fast that by the time the assistant ran out, Lucas Harlow was already in his sports car, speeding away.
The assistant had no choice but to toughen up and go find Lucas Harlow’s manager to reschedule the shoot.
Of course, the manager scolded him harshly, but there was no other option since Lucas Harlow had already left. He had to go negotiate with the director.
At this moment, Lawrence Winters and Kenneth Osborne were sitting in the office of the head of the public relations department at Capital City University, in a meeting with the main leaders, professors, and her class advisor.
"Lawrence Winters, can you tell us what really happened?"
The department head, knowing that Lawrence Winters’s uncle was very familiar with the vice president of Capital City University, didn’t want to make things difficult for her.
The key was that he knew Lawrence Winters was not "mentally ill" as rumored.
Spencer Group’s sudden maneuver not only angered him, but also infuriated the leadership of Capital City University.
This was like dumping a bucket of dung on the head of the entire university!
This cannot be tolerated!
The president and vice president of Capital City University called him several times, asking him to stand up for his student, ensuring she wouldn’t be bullied without reason.
Lawrence Winters calmed herself, first recounting the interview process in detail, then said, "That’s how it happened. I absolutely didn’t shout back at her nor did I go crazy and trash her room. In fact, I left right after speaking, and also retracted my application, not accepting any offers from them."
Everyone in the office, after listening, felt her explanation was reasonable.
Because there was no need for Lawrence Winters to trash the interview room unless she truly had a mental illness.
Even though they weren’t very familiar with her, this student had taken every final exam herself for the past three and a half years, consistently ranking first in her grade.
What mental patient has such incredible self-control?
Kenneth Osborne, sitting beside her, also commented blandly, "Just because they say it’s a mental illness, it’s a mental illness? Is Spencer Group not a real estate company but a psychiatric hospital?"
"Everyone knows only a psychiatric hospital can diagnose psychiatric conditions."
Upon hearing this, Lawrence Winters was overjoyed, wishing she could immediately post Kenneth Osborne’s words online to counter Spencer Group’s public relations department.
What she didn’t know was that Kenneth Osborne had already taken out his phone on the way up, using a small program he wrote to launch a counterattack against Spencer Group.
Meanwhile, on Weibo, an unknown netizen had just started a topic.
#CapitalCityUniversityGirlWronglyAccused—DiagnosedFromNowhere, Is Spencer Group a Real Estate Company or a Psychiatric Hospital?!#
As the topic was trending with hot keywords like "Capital City University," it quickly made it into the top ten trending topics.
Kenneth Osborne’s small program had an extraordinary effect, even overwhelming the internet trolls hired by Spencer Group’s public relations department.
Seeing this, Spencer Group’s business rivals couldn’t resist stepping in to add fuel to the fire as any qualified competitor would.
As a result, many businesses began to repost and deliberately tagged Spencer Group’s chairman, Cameron Spencer, on his official Weibo account, intentionally mocking him.
@Cameron Spencer, Brother Spencer, when did you convert Spencer Group into a private hospital? The Spencer Psychiatric Hospital, incredible!
@Cameron Spencer, Big Boss Spencer, truly powerful and affluent, using the company’s wealth to attack an ordinary college girl, I salute! No wonder I can’t beat you in business bids, obviously, my face isn’t thick enough! My heart isn’t narrow enough! My methods not ruthless enough!
@Cameron Spencer, Mr. Spencer, always so charitable and amiable, not only ranked tenth on the national rich list last year, but also third on the philanthropy list, who would’ve thought... A renowned reputation lost in a day, what a pity! What a pity!
Even the internet celebrity "Great Heavenly Master Zhang" tagged him in a post.
@Cameron Spencer, Big Boss Spencer, do you believe that good and evil will be repaid in the end? Is this how you treat your savior?!—I think your Spencer Family’s fortune is about to end!
This post was fervently shared, with people speculating about the hidden story within.
The "Great Heavenly Master Zhang" bluntly issued a statement, claiming he had received information that before last year’s Spring Festival, when Big Boss Spencer attended the national rich list award ceremony in River City, he was unexpectedly endangered and it was Lawrence Winters from Capital City University and her friends who saved him, yet now his company is tarnishing her as "mentally ill!"
Upon examining Spencer Group’s public statement, netizens found every detail matched precisely.
Because Spencer Group is a publicly listed company, their CEO encountering an accident in River City and later recuperating in Capital City was publicly announced by their PR department.
In a publicly listed company’s financial reports, many messages related to important company leaders, such as health issues, which are private matters to ordinary people, must be disclosed.
Coincidentally, the public relations senior class at Capital City University has a girl named "Nora Winters," who was admitted from River City High School with the highest score!
Comparing the two sides, the identity of Big Boss Spencer’s savior became immediately apparent.
And the most remarkable post came from the official blog of the Foster Consortium, ranked fifth on the national rich list.
@Cameron Spencer, Boss Spencer’s business tactics are still the same old tricks... consistently ungrateful, striking hardest at those who help himself!
This Weibo post carried infinite implications, leaving the general public disregarding love-hate stories in the entertainment industry and turning to watch the real-life entanglements of business tycoons.
This is the second update; the third update will be at 7 PM.
