<h4>Chapter 99 - Lets Go</h4>


    While Madam Collins was still processing the shocking news, Spencer received the same information from his own people at the office. As he watched the broadcast, his hand clenched into a fist, and he felt a headache stard to form.


    It seemed reporters were already hounding them, demanding answers—why had his mother done something like this to her own daughter-inw when during that time, Mnie had indeed been working with ABC Industtries? They wanted to know if there was internal strife within thepany for two of it''s directors attacking each other like this?


    Without having anyone to tell him, he knew that the shares of thepany would definitely be affected today. And at present he needed to do damage control.


    But, to make things worse, Peter Berkus had officially filed thewsuit and then left the country. Which meant that there was no way they could make hime forward and im that this was all a misunderstanding.


    Peter was refusing to listen to any exnations, making it clear that his side would only speak in court. There was no room for discussion after the betrayal. To have orchestrated the entire incident of giarism and then sympathised with him as if Mnie was the one who was controlling everything! He had sent quite a long ''letter'' to them...


    Spencer grimaced. The video circting just now wasn''t very clear, but Spencer had no doubt that it was real. He knew exactly what his mother had done. But the bigger question was—how did Peter get his hands on it?


    And yet, even as he asked himself this question, the answer came to him almost instantly. It had to be Mnie.


    He remembered his mother mentioning that Mnie had given Peter a file, calling it a "gift" before she left the party yesterday. At the time, he hadn''t thought much of it. Like his mother, he had believed that it must be Mnie''s proposal for Peter regarding the partnership.


    But now, with everything falling apart, it made sense. That file must have contained the video. Mnie had intended to prove herself innocent before making the proposal. But when Peter Berkus had humiliated her, she had simply left the file with him and walked away, knowing that once the man realized the truth, he woulde to her. And this time, with Peter having humiliated Mnie wrongfully, she would have the upper hand.


    So, Mnie had to be the one who sent it out. He never could have imagined that she would be so insiduous.


    Frustrated at having his mother ruining everything for petty games, he asked his own assistant, "What about the person who was supposed to keep Mother informed about Mnie? The spy? Why didn''t he warn her about what Mnie was doing or what was in that file?"


    The man shook his head and exined hurriedly, "ording to Lisa the spy didn''t know anything. Mnie never told anyone about her n—not even her own assistant who apanied her. Also, the assistant is now looking into the matter of the leaked ns so Mnie has also discovered that we have a spy in her office."


    Spencer let out a sharp breath. That meant Mnie had been careful, keeping everything a secret until it was toote. And now, the damage was already done.


    In her desperate attempt to bring about Mnie''s downfall, his mother had instead ruined everything. What was supposed to be a carefullyid trap had backfired spectacrly, and in one swift move, Mnie had turned the tables, bringing his mother down instead.


    Spencer''s mind was still racing, trying to figure out a way to control the damage when the door to his office swung open and Hallie strode in.


    "Spencer even though everything is in chaos right now, I think we might have a way to fix this mess. If we handle this correctly, we can shift the me onto Mnie and make your mothere out as the hero in all of this. Look at these pictures."


    Spencer''s brow furrowed as he took the folder and flipped it open. The moment his gazended on the photographs, his body went rigid. His grip on the edges of the paper tightened. This was...


    "We can im that Mnie was out of control. That she had no morals, no integrity, and that your mother was simply trying to protect Adam. That she couldn''t stand by and let Mnie''s characterless ways tarnish his name any further.


    You have a few pictures with Mnie from back then. Even though they are normal, with pictures like these ones, it will be easy to change the narrative. We can say that Madam Collins never liked her because she knew Mnie''s character. How she first tried to seduce you and then seduced Adam, ying with both your hearts.


    Since both of you were away, Madam Collins did the only thing she could, hoping that when Adam returned, he would break things off. But instead they eloped. And yet,ter, Mnie continued with her wayward ways, and was now having an affair with her assistant."


    "We can turn this whole situation around, Spencer! If we control the narrative, the public will sympathize with your mother instead of condemning her."


    While Spencer knew that this could be done, he coudl still not control his jealous as he looked down at the pictures in front of him. Was Mnie really like this? It had not been long since they had ''broken up'' and already she was moving from one man''s arms to other. Justst week it had been Adam and now it was this Ben! How did she be such a sl*t!


    He picked up the pictures. Or was she always like this? And he had been the one too blind to notice it. Hallie had said this when she''d mentioned how easily Mnie had married Adam and how they seemed to already be close. He''d thought that this was just Mnie trying to get back at him but now... What if there had already been an illicit rtionship between her and other men? He''d been the one yed for a fool all this while!
