THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 699

The tide of public opinion was like a massive, unstoppable avalanche.

"I know," Suzanne nodded.

Just then, a thought occurred to her. "Justus, do you think we should buy some of that CA Antidote, just in case?" Even if Caitlin was just fearmongering, it was better to be safe than sorry.

Justus looked at her with disdain. "Grandma, those are the ravings of a lunatic. Why would you waste money validating her insanity?"

Suzanne conceded that he had a point.

As the news of the shareholder exodus spread, corporations that had once partnered with Gonzales Holdings began issuing public statements, distancing themselves from the embattled company. Everyone was afraid of being dragged down with them. Suddenly, Gonzales Holdings was radioactive, a pariah to be avoided at all costs.

When Justus learned of this, he immediately went to his grandmother. "Grandma, things are getting worse! Even families that were once close to the Gonzaleses are cutting ties. Your friendship with Keira is well-known. Even if you don't help them publicly, if someone digs up your connection, it could damage our company."

Suzanne's expression grew heavy.

"Grandma, I think we should issue a statement too," Justus proposed. "We can say that you've been living abroad for years and have lost contact with everyone here. It's better to get ahead of the story before someone else tells it for us."
