Chapter 1118 Internet Disputes
‘Oh, dear. This old lady is the most wicked grandma I’ve ever seen.’ ‘You pointed your
finger at Tessa and her brother and called them ingrates, but why don’t you take a look at
yourself and reflect on your own mistakes?’
‘No wonder people say stepmothers can’t be trusted, and it doesn’t just stop there. Just
look at this case. The stepmom gave Tessa a stepdad and a step-grandma not long after
that. When they didn’t need her, she was tossed aside like trash. However, when they did,
they’d go to great lengths just to make her do their bidding.’
‘If what the Internet says is true, then I think Tessa did nothing wrong.’
‘Who did this old lady think she was? Did she think she could do whatever she wanted just
because of her old age?’
‘If you ask me, had it not been for Tessa, that old lady wouldn’t even have had the chance
to be treated in a hospital.’
‘You’re absolutely right. I just watched the video that was posted earlier and found out
that the ward in which the old lady stayed cost a few grand per day.’
Although many of the netizens began to side with Tessa and attacked Amber, some of
them continued to remain skeptical about Tessa’s past.

‘Wait a second. Could this be Tessa’s way of restoring her innocence?’
‘That old lady might have done something terrible, but that was no way to treat an elder.’
The netizens, who defended Amber, were quickly met with objections and disagreements
from many others.
‘Well, you shouldn’t preach if you are not in their shoes.’
‘This old lady didn’t treat others with respect, so what made her think she deserves any
respect? Times have changed, and people have become smarter these days.’
‘Think about it. Do you seriously think the Sawyer Group would create fake news about
something that happened a year ago?’
While neither of the netizens in the dispute chose to give in, Tessa’s supporters from
abroad joined in shortly after and showed their sympathy for her. It turned out that the
viral news had caught the attention of the media abroad as they broadcast the story
locally. ‘Oh, gosh! I’m sorry for my idol, Tessa. How could someone ever treat her family
member so badly?’
‘See? I knew the whole world was wrong about my idol. That old lady must have done
something so wrong that my idol eventually lost her patience and went physical with her.’
‘Technically, this old lady already had nothing to do with my idol, Tessa, but for old times’
sake, she made sure to have her sent to a hospital for treatment when she fell ill. If that
wasn’t kindness, then I don’t know what was.’
‘That’s right. That old lady owes a great debt to our idol!’
While it appeared that more and more netizens stood on Tessa’s side, there were still
some skeptics who remained distrustful of her. ‘No matter what you said, I will not change
my stance until I hear from the reporter himself.’
‘You’re totally entitled to your opinion, but I believe in Tessa. After all, a mother-to-be like
her would have never committed any bad deed.’
‘Guess what? Maybe someone was trying to ruin Tessa’s reputation because she was
jealous of her.’
‘That’s not entirely impossible.’
‘As if that person had nothing better to do with her time. Who would risk rubbing the
Sawyer Family the wrong way just to defame Tessa Reinhart?’
‘Well, there are all kinds of people in this world, including the kind who gets jealous easily
without anything else better to do.’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the netizens went on to argue and debate about Tessa’s innocence on the Internet, the
situation seemed to work perfectly in her favor. At the same time, Wanda was secretly
following the development of events, feeling dissatisfied when she could tell that Tessa
was gaining more favors from the netizens.
However, she knew the Sawyer Group was responsible for the change of events by
creating distractions over the Internet. Besides that, she also believed Nicholas had been
pressuring the media company into handing the reporter over to him. Therefore, it
naturally occurred to her that the reporter was the key, which could tip the scales of the
situation in either Nicholas’ favor or hers.
The evidence that Nicholas is looking for is now exactly with the reporter. Squinting in a
preoccupied manner, Wanda believed she needed to prevent Nicholas from luring out the
reporter as she feared that the truth would dampen the impact of the false rumors she
had been disseminating. Nevertheless, there was one thing that she feared even more,
which was the risk of being exposed. Thus, she quickly decided that it was for the best to
send the reporter away after contemplating it for a few moments.
Without hesitation, she instantly grabbed her phone and started dialing a phone number.
“Hey, where are you now?”
“I did as you said and lay low in a hotel.”
