The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 99

Charles could already imagine what would happen after this. Then he rubbed his forehead and tried to calm his anger.

"Inform everyone that Ethan is fired from the manager position of Dawson Group from now on. Ask him to work starting from the bottom! As for Sophia, ask her to get lost after causing such a huge mess!"

Meanwhile, during the official apology press announcement, Ethan and Sophia were totally being humiliated.

Sophia hated the fact that she needed to apologize to Paige publicly. She felt like a fool that was being ashamed under the flashing lights all over.

The reporters bombarded her with countless questions. In the end, she pretended to faint to escape from the tense situation.

Back at home, Sophia received a notification from Dawson Group, saying that she was being fired from her position. However, she didn't seem to be very angry.

In contrast, she was infuriated by the news of her slandering Paige, which had been widely spread online.

The netizens were filled with indignation and cursed at her by leaving negative comments under her social media. In no time, Sophia turned into the most hated person on the internet. Those people who attacked Paige previously for plagiarism immediately switched their standpoint and targeted Sophia instead.

Her phone number and social media account were experiencing a breakdown. She was forced to cancel her number because of the unstoppable incoming calls.

She was afraid of going out and was frantic to read the news. She continued hiding in her house out of fear.

However, she remained unapologetic and was ignorant about the mistakes that she had done. The worst thing was, she cursed rudely on Paige together with her mother, Isabella.

"I won't let her go that easily. I must take revenge and let Paige know how powerful I am!"

Although Sophia was receiving severe hate and criticism, Ethan wasn't any better either. Sophia had been bearing all the responsibilities instead of Ethan, and everyone in the Dawson Group, who was familiar with him, knew what was actually going on

However, no one dared to discuss him publicly due to the presence of Elizabeth.

Even so, they were actually looking down on him and talked bad about him behind his back. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Besides, Charles demoted his manager position to a normal staff. As such, Ethan had nothing left anymore.

Elizabeth knew that this issue would be a big blow to Ethan. Therefore, she went to find him personally to cheer him up.

"It's just temporarily because things have gone out of control this time. Your grandpa issued this order, so your uncle-in-law can't do anything about it either. Just endure it for a few days and I’ll help you

restart after some time."

Ethan lowered his head dispiritedly. He used to think that his aunt was almighty. However, after this incident, he realized that Elizabeth was nothing in comparison to Charles. She had no say in front of him.

Apparently, he was fooled by her outstanding appearance.

"I regret it!" Ethan murmured, "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have hook up with Sophia. In fact, I'm not planning to have a future with her. I just did it because I wanted to make Paige angry..."

"Why are you thinking about her when Paige made you like this? Aren't you silly?" Elizabeth said seriously.

"Aunt, Paige has half of the shares of her family business. I was too silly that time, I should've borne with her even though she slept with another man. I should've got married to her first, but everything's too late now."

Ethan rubbed his head and said, "Aunt, should I return and beg for Paige's forgiveness?"

"Are you crazy?" Elizabeth widened her eyes.

"I'm not crazy. Paige is soft-hearted and always regarded me as her life savior. If I plead to her and admit my mistake, she will definitely forgive me. I'd probably have a chance to restore our relationship."

"But isn't Sophia pregnant with your child?" Elizabeth reminded.

"Let her get an abortion!" Ethan said heartlessly.
