Chapter 593 Give Me a Chance

Lawrence and Scarlett had gone home for breakfast. Only Sean and Abigail were left. Meanwhile, Analise was

washing herself up.

Sean made some tea. “Are you going to keep Howard around?”

“I can’t fire him. We made a deal with him. Once Xavien finds out about the truth, I’ll make another statement. Give

him a chance.” Abigail had calmed down now. After the case had made its way to trending. Abigail finally calmed

down. She was frustrated because things were uncertain before.

Sean looked at her, thinking that she had a flexible mind and could accept a lot of things. Yes, she could get mad,

but she would calm down eventually. He finished making the tea and gave her a cup. “I had some. I think it’s nice,

so you should try it.”

Abigail took the cup and had a sip. She cocked her eyebrow in surprise. “It is nice.” She whipped out her phone and

opened up an online shopping app. The tea wasn’t expensive, and it was nice. And now she thought better of

Scarlett and Lawrence. People who could buy cheap and nice things couldn’t be too bad.

Sean knew she liked the tea. Oh, good. At least they did one good thing.

Fairy Meadow’s Twitter page was still overwhelmed. At noon, there were already more than 50 thousand comments

cursing Howard. Some people were trying to dox him, too. In the end, due to the great pressure, Howard posted an

apology statement.

‘I have let L.Moon and Alana down. After taking too many presents over the last year, I have lost my way. What

happened this time isn’t what the internet made it out to be. It was my greed. Adam Strong. GM of Fast Step, used

my greed and set me up. I have told the cops about his attempt at extortion. He and that woman set me up just to

get priority for Loveme. Leap Gaming developed that app, and Alana invested in it through L.Moon. The investor

has exclusive use of that app for six months. That’s Fairy Meadow. The app will then be open to other companies

after that, but for his company’s profit, Adam set me up. I will not defend myself for what I did, but I will take up

arms against Fast Step

That statement sent ripples throughout the company. Abigail was surprised Howard would take. up responsibility like

a man and fight Adam.

“Oh, first I’ve ever seen a business war. Extortion, eh? That’s the only plausible reason. I think it’s true. It’s been 24

hours since the video of Alana arguing with him in the hotel. If the victim really was violated, they would have called

the cops right away.”

You deserved that slap. I want to slap you, too. Haven’t you made enough through Fairy Meadow? Your greed

knows no bounds. Now you got Alana and Fairy Meadow into this sh*tshow. Damn you!”

Hey, you’re trusting him even without evidence? Show us the evidence. Besides, Fast Step has been in the market

for ages. Do you think they would extort someone? I bet this is slander because he didn’t get anything from this.”

As for Fast Step, they made an official statement on their Twitter page too. They claimed that Howard’s statement

was libel. Their lawyer had made a statement too.

The internet mocked them

1/2

Hey, they’re calling the cops now. A lawyer’s statement is weak sauce. You call the cops too, or it’s going to be hard

to believe you’re innocent.”

‘Exactly! If it’s libel, you should call the cops instead of making a statement. Or are you nervous?’

‘Fasi Step has been in the market for years, but they do have scandals too. I know Adam. He was embroiled in

something similar years ago. It was a new shoe brand, but the company folded after he was caught in a scandal.

Abigail made sure Fast Step’s statement got to the top trending before she posted a video of Howard going into

Adam’s car.

‘I filmed this that day. Thanks to my phone camera’s enlarged function, I caught the plate number even from the

top of a building. I believe this is your car, Mr. Strong.

Howard was thankful for that video and he called Abigail. Thank you for posting that video. I know I did the wrong

thing this time. Can you give me another chance?” he asked humbly.

Abigail was silent for a moment, then she said, “Are you back in Capitalis?”

“Yes.”

“We’ll talk tonight. You set up the place,” Abigail commented coolly.

Howard agreed, but he was still nervous. He knew that Abigail could purchase Fairy Meadow if she wanted to. The

Pearsons and Sean were not to be trifled with, after all, and Abigail was a big shareholder of Fairy Meadow.

Abigail hung up and heaved a sigh..

Sean was displeased. “You’re seeing him tonight? Couldn’t you just talk to him on the phone?”

“Some things are better dealt with face to face,” Abigail answered calmly.

Sean looked at her for a moment. “Why don’t I come with you?”

“Sure thing.” Abigail didn’t refuse his offer. Howard was already relenting. It’s alright that I bring Sean with me to

make sure everything goes right, no?

Sean smiled, happy that she wasn’t refusing.
