Chapter 602 After he finished speaking, he hung up directly, ignoring whether Remus had any more to say.
Initially, he wanted to let Edward take care of this, but he gave it a thought and changed his mind. Since
the Stone Family was so keen to seek their end, then he didn’t need to hold back, either.
With his cell phone in his hand, he called Kieran and said in an aloof voice, “Regarding the rumors about
the company, do as I tell you.”
After that, he told him about how Hayley hired an assassin abroad, and Kieran listened intently on the
other end, holding his cell phone tightly.
Then, a short while later, he lashed out in anger, “The Stone Family is too much! Don’t worry, Nicholas.
I’ll take care of this matter properly and stand up for Tessa!”
In the afternoon, news about Hayley’s attempted murder abroad and becoming a wanted criminal was
the headline in several news portals. The moment this information was published, the netizens were
abuzz with activity.

‘Is this news real? How did the young lady of the Stone Family become a wanted criminal?’
‘It doesn’t seem like fake news because there’s even a warrant from abroad.

‘Yeah, why did she want to kill somebody? Why can’t she just enjoy her amazing life as a young lady
from a wealthy family?’
Kieran ignored the comments on the Internet as he instructed the company’s PR department to release a
notice soon after the news was out.
The brief idea of the notice was that the Stone Family was unhappy about the Sawyer Family canceling
the marriage and, thus, defamed the Sawyer Group in the dark. Because of that, they would pursue the
Stone Group for damages to their reputation.
The Sawyer Group also asked a food for thought question at the end of the notice. The general idea
was, with the Sawyer Family’s status in the business world, would they have wanted to have a woman
with such misconduct as their family?
The netizens who read the announcement that was initially doubting if Hayley was really capable of
murder were beginning to sway.
In the meantime, the bloodhounds within the media picked up on the fact that a juicy piece of news was
just ripe for the taking and immediately took action. Therefore, in less than two hours, a well-known
media confirmed that it was a fact that Hayley attempted to murder someone overseas.
As it turned out, these media managed to contact the Vienna police through various channels, and even
a more prominent media company instructed their employees in their branch once in Vienna to do a live
interview.
Soon, videos of the live interview also appeared on the Internet, and the netizens followed this topic
closely. Very quickly, the clicks on the interview video had reached tens of millions.
In the video, the journalists interviewed the police officer who was dealing with Hayley’s case at the time.
“Can you please tell us the motive behind Hayley Stone’s attempt at murder?”
“This is what we’re trying to find out as well,” the officer said diplomatically.
The journalist continued to ask, “Then, can you please tell us who was the person she tried to murder?”
“I’m sorry, but we must protect the victim’s privacy.”
“Alright, we’ll change the question, then. Is there any progress on Hayley Stone’s capture?”
“Previously, we found some leads regarding her whereabouts, but she escaped after that. Thus, we
suspect that she might have left Vienna and may have been smuggled into Xerthania.”
At this point, the netizens totally lost their grip on their rationality at this outrageous news.

‘The Stone Family is simply too disgusting. They’re the ones who behaved immorally, but they made use
of us to defame the Sawyer Family. So, I’ve decided that from today onward, I’ll boycott all the products

The uproar on the Internet traveled into Nero’s ears very quickly.
“D*mn it. Nicholas Sawyer actually leaked out all of this. Does he plan to burn the bridge completely with
us?”
He ground his teeth in anger; in fact, he was so furious that he could throw up blood as he never
imagined that Nicholas would do this.
As Nero read through the comments from netizens who were screaming to boycott the Stone Enterprise,
he suddenly felt that he had shot himself in the foot.
That afternoon, the Stone Enterprise was greatly affected by this incident, and its stock value kept falling.
Many journalists even went to the Stone Enterprise just to get a shot of the Stones.
