Chapter 84
At the Wilson Group.
Bryan rubbed his temples in frustration. The deal with Harding had been snatched by competitors, making this quarter’s financial report look dismal.
Flipping through the documents submitted by his sinprdomate, Bryan felt relieved. At least it was only the new project that had issues. Everything else seemed fine.
Bryan tapped his fingers rhythmically on the desk as he pondered. If it really came down to an all-out war, even the Turner Group wouldn’t escape unscathed. Since Bowen hadn’t made any other moves elsewhere, Harding’s deal was clearly just a warning shot.
The assistant knocked and entered, reporting, “Mr. Wilson, I’ve completed the task you assigned. Everything at Rithol Art School has been arranged, and the person has already been sent abroad as planned.
“However, I’m not sure if we should make it public now, so I wanted to check with you first.”
He slid the tablet across the desk to Bryan.
To cover up Carmen’s plagiarism scandal, Bryan arranged a scapegoat for her.
Just like in her previous life, when the Wilson family pushed Aubree out as a scapegoat for Carmen’s plagiarism.
This time, Bryan targeted one of Carmen’s sidekicks at Rithol Art School, someone eager to curry favor with the Wilson family, since Carmen had never hidden her identity after enrolling.
Bryan promised to sponsor that girl’s overseas education, with all expenses covered by the Wilson family, a tempting offer she couldn’t refuse. Her job was to publicly claim she was close to Carmen and, in order to ingratiate herself with the Wilson family, had tampered with Carmen’s art assignment without Carmen’s knowledge.
Once this story was out, whether people believed it or not, at least the Wilson family would save face. With a bit of clever PR, Carmen could come forward with a tearful apology and voluntarily withdraw from Rithol, transforming from a shameless plagiarist into an unwitting victim.
The public would take pity on Carmen for being forced to quit school because of someone else’s mistake.
Bryan frowned and think, ‘Did they really need to bother me with something so trivial?’ He took the tablet and saw a video. of the incident at the school gate.
‘What is Mother up to now?’ he thought, exasperated.
The assistant carefully observed Bryan’s expression and cautiously said, “Sir, ever since Mrs. Wilson made a scene at Aubree’s school this morning, there’s been a surge of new speculation online, especially because, in the video, Aubree claims that many of Carmen’s competition pieces were actually ghostwritten by her. With Carmen just exposed for hiring a ghostwriter, there’s already a heated discussion about it online. If we release our statement now, public opinion would likely turn against Aubree.”
In the past, the assistant always knew exactly what to do. When it came to Carmen and Aubree, the boss’s preference was
clear-cut.
