“What story?” he demanded.
Owen paused, realizing Lionel had been in meetings all morning and was completely unaware. He quickly handed his phone over, carefully scrolling to the comment section.
“Sir, I’ve had the team trying to suppress it, but someone is pouring money into keeping it trending. Every time we get it taken down, it pops right back up. They’re even recirculating the old stories, and there are accounts deliberately steering the conversation in the comments.”
Lionel’s gaze swept over the vitriol. Aside from the insults and threats to find Hannah, a vocal group was insisting that Sandra was his real wife. Both of their social media accounts had been dug up. Hannah’s was flooded with hate, while Sandra’s was filled with messages of support for the “wronged wife.”
“Double our efforts. Get it taken down,” he ordered, rubbing his temples as a dull ache began to throb. After a moment, he said, “Give me your burner phone. I need to call Hannah.”
Owen handed it over and left to carry out his orders.
Hannah had just finished a meeting when her phone rang. Seeing an unknown number, she ignored it.
“Whoa, Hannah, you’re trending!” Anna exclaimed as she walked over. “Everyone online is saying you’re the other woman. The comments are horrible.”
