When Sadie arrived at the 68th-floor office, Ryan, Chloe, and the top executives of VIC Group were already waiting.
Sadie and Ryan decided to hold a press conference the next afternoon, where Chloe would announce the news.
However, Ryan was still worried. "Given the current situation, I suspect the media might have been bribed. If we hold a press conference and they refuse to listen to our exnation, instead choosing to attack you, what will we do?"
"Have the legal team attend the press conference as well," Sadie ordered decisively. "We''ll present the facts and evidence, record the names of all media outlets, and if any nder urs, we''ll send out legal notices immediately."
"That''s a good n," Ryan nodded. "I''ve already sent people to investigate. Hopefully, we can find out who''s behind all this trouble."
"Whoever is bold enough to target the Clemens Group like this must have significant backing," Sadie frowned deeply.
"Who could it be?" Ryan was genuinely puzzled. "At this point, I can''t think of anyone who would target us like this."
"Let''s not dwell on it for now. Focus on preparing for the press conference," Sadie remained calm. "We need to tackle this step by step."
"Alright."
Ryan left.
Sadie was about to handle some documents when Chloe came in to report, "Ms. James, there''s a new rumor circting."
"What now?" Sadie asked while flipping through the files.
"This time, they''re dragging Mr. James into it. Someone''s iming he''s the mastermind behind your return for revenge, plotting against Mr. Clemens to seize the Clemens Group''s assets," Chloe said softly.
Sadie paused, took Chloe''s tablet, and scanned the news. Her face turned pale with anger.
The online rumors used Tristan of mismanaging the James Group, leading to its copse and the downfall of the James Family.
They suggested he was now trying to make aeback by targeting the Clemens Group through Sadie.
The articles even listed past conflicts between the James Group and the Clemens Group, presenting them as if they were factual.
Reading this, Sadie felt a surge of fury.

It was one thing to nder her, but now they were dragging Tristan into it.
Tristan had always been proud and disdainful of taking anything from others. He wouldn''t even ept something given to him for free, let alone plot to seize it!
"This news is gaining a lot of traction. Many people online believe it," Chloe said cautiously. "Numerous media outlets have contacted our PR department forments."
Sadie was angry but remainedposed. She set the tablet down and said calmly, "We''ll address everything at tomorrow''s press conference."
Chloe looked at her nervously. "But new rumors keep emerging. By tomorrow, the Clemens Group''s stock might plummet."
"What other rumors?" Sadie asked, clearly irritated.
"Just a minute ago, there was another rumor..."
Chloe hesitated to continue.

"See for yourself," Chloe said, opening another link on the tablet.
Sadie took the tablet and, upon seeing the news, mmed her hand on the table. "Damn it!"
The news imed that Noah, Nathan, and Mia were not Micah''s children but Tristan''s.
The article included photos of the three children, asserting they looked exactly like Tristan and nothing like Micah.
The news didn''t rify Tristan and Sadie''s rtionship but left enough ambiguity to fuel spection.
In short, this news undermined Sadie''sst card.
Without concrete evidence, it would be nearly impossible to clear her name.
And with Micah already dead and no heirs in the Clemens Family, even DNA verification was out of the question.
