Chapter 188:
The photos taken indoors last time were very good. Annabel pursed her lips in satisfaction.
“Oh. My. God!” exclaimed Eve, the employee sitting next to Annabel. “You have got to see this, Annabel! You are trending online p>
She was trending online?
Annabel whipped out her phone from her bag and logged into Facebook. A viral post popped up on her feed. It read, “An employee of Benton Group has been accused of attempted murder and publicly assaulting the victim’s mother p>
There were pictures attached to the post. It stated that Annabel had intentionally pushed Nina into Lover Lake and that two eyewitnesses had already testified against her, yet the police still had not detained the culprit.
It further claimed that Nina’s mother had gone to seek justice for her, but Annabel had beaten her and pushed her to the ground.
The attached photos showed Annabel pushing Talia to the ground. However, the truth was that Annabel had only given Talia a light push in self-defense. The cunning middle-aged woman had then sat on the ground to elicit sympathy. In contrast to what had really happened, Talia was portrayed as the pitiful victim in the post, while Annabel was labeled a vicious and unrepentant attacker.
The comments that flooded the section below were harsh. Everyone was roasting Annabel without holding back.
Annabel stared at the screen for a while and frowned.
This matter was turning into something else.
The police had not yet concluded their investigation, but the public was already crucifying her and accusing her of crimes she had never committed. It was strange that everyone was against her without knowing her side of the story. The trolls seemed to have been paid to add fuel to the fire.
Talia was an ordinary middle-aged woman. There was no way she could afford to do such a thing.

It appeared that one of Annabel’s many enemies was working against her now.
Who could it be?
Annabel was pondering this when her phone suddenly rang.
As soon as she answered, Anthony’s voice came through. “Hey, have you seen the viral post? Why are you trending p>
“Yes, I just saw it.” Annabel smiled. “It’s nothing, actually. Someone just wants to ruin my reputation p>
“Okay… but do you know who is behind this? Just give me a name and I will sort this out for you right away!” Anthony said angrily. “Damn it! How dare they slander you? I must put a stop to it. I’ll hack the media system and clear it all up p>
“You don’t have to do that,” Annabel replied casually. “Since this person is so hungry for cheap popularity, they can go ahead and enjoy it while it lasts p>
Anthony was surprised. “Aren’t you afraid that it will damage your reputation p>
Annabel sneered. “I have been bored lately. This uproar is something interesting for a change. Let’s just watch as the drama unfolds. I can tell it’s going to be fun p>
Anthony thought for a while and said, “You mean p>
“Run a check on Nina for me,” Annabel suggested, leaning back in her seat. Since Nina had tried to hurt her, there had to be some clues left behind.
