Chapter 845 - 870: Looming Storm, Second Update (4)
The power of readers is immense, they can drown them with their criticisms!
Before Bob Ginger went out in the afternoon, he saw many comments filled with a deep sense of justice, which only made him feel a headache. He had arranged to meet with Zuri Ginger at Pizza Hut, and as soon as he started speaking, naturally, he hoped that Zuri could find a way to delete the current book.
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
His Aunt Cooper also had a big company to manage.
What bothered him the most was Mia Ginger.
She was clearly supposed to be the princess Ginger Aiden and Aurora Cooper cherished, Koa Jackson’s fiancée, and a true young lady of the Ginger Family. She had already suffered so much, losing her hearing in one ear because of Charlotte Chester, and just recently recovering from a car accident.
She had just married Brother Jackson and found some happiness, yet hadn’t even regained her memory to enjoy good days, and then such a thing happened.
Actually, it could be clarified.
Aiden Ginger and Aurora Cooper could certainly find a way to handle this matter.
But he couldn’t stand it.
He couldn’t bear the enormous pressure and insults Mia Ginger had to endure before the matter was resolved.
Even more, he couldn’t stand the insults she was already bearing.
Zuri Ginger’s readers were all girls, and the harsh things they said were unbearable, as if they had used the most venomous curses in the world on her, he couldn’t wait another minute.
He also had to consider Charlotte Chester.
No matter what, she had given birth to him.
If everything were to be made public, what would Charlotte Chester do?
Her face and reputation would be ruined.
The best solution Bob Ginger could think of was for Zuri Ginger to stop writing that book and find a way to delete it to stabilize her reader base.
After all, those who love reading romance novels are only a part of the female demographic. As long as this matter isn’t spread outside this circle and is resolved first, it shouldn’t cause too many problems, Bob thought.
But—
Zuri Ginger’s attitude was intolerable to him.
He could understand her not wanting to go to prison. Her probation for a year naturally made her want to find a way to avoid jail.
But the demand for money was something he couldn’t accept.
Primarily—
He was generally a well-behaved guy, even though he had some private savings, it didn’t amount to five hundred thousand.
His dad wasn’t greedy; their family didn’t have mountains of gold and silver!
Asking Aiden Ginger for that much money was improbable, let alone asking Mia Ginger and Aurora Cooper. He wasn’t shameless like that.
Seeing his troubled expression, Zuri Ginger sneered, "I heard you’re living in Cooper Manor now, how is it possible you don’t have five hundred thousand? Five hundred thousand is too little, I think asking for a few million should be easy, Aurora Cooper wouldn’t care about such a small amount!"
"It’s their money, why should I ask for it?" Bob Ginger frowned tightly, "She’s not my mom, and even if she were, she wouldn’t give me hundreds of thousands just like that; money doesn’t just fall from the sky."
"I don’t care!" Zuri Ginger lost her patience, getting up and saying, "I’ll give you three days; in these three days, I’ll calm my readers down. After three days, you’ll see Mia Ginger being doxxed. If you truly care about her, you won’t let her be called those vile names!"
"You!" Bob Ginger stood up, equally furious.
"That’s all I have to say." Zuri Ginger sneered coldly, "Do as you see fit."
As her voice fell, she turned and left.
Bob Ginger could hardly breathe and turned his head saying, "You’re supposed to be my sister; you’ve lived with Dad for so many years. Do you have to use this method to make our family a laughingstock for the whole world?"
"Ha." Zuri Ginger stopped, turned to look at him, and slowly said, "That’s your dad, not mine. If we talk about feelings, he shouldn’t have sent me to prison. I’ve come to this, why should I care about you guys? Those who have nothing to lose don’t fear those who do!"
"That’s because you did something wrong!" Bob Ginger emphasized.
Zuri Ginger barked back angrily, "Did Mia Ginger have any issue? Did I harm her in any way? She’s living so splendidly, marrying Koa Jackson, becoming the granddaughter-in-law of the Jackson Family, hahaha, so great. Does a few insults from netizens matter to her? Right? It doesn’t cut her flesh..."
Before she could finish, Bob Ginger couldn’t stand it anymore, grinding his teeth, "That’s enough, I agree!"
Zuri Ginger sneered, "Within three days."
"Got it." Bob Ginger gritted his teeth, giving her a hateful glance.
Zuri Ginger clutched her purse and went downstairs.
Once outside, she walked straight to where the car was parked.
In front of the black Audi, Edward Davis looked at her with a gleeful smile, "Was it a success?"
"Yes." Zuri Ginger smiled slightly.
She actually had money.
After Grassy was imprisoned, not long after, Rowanda Peterson tried to make amends and gave her a good sum of money.
Of course, she wouldn’t live with Charlotte Chester and that man.
She first bought a two-bedroom apartment within the city.
She would occasionally go to provoke Charlotte Chester.
Lately, the divorce settlement Charlotte Chester received was almost depleted, she gambled, and the man gambled along with her. Their luck was bad, and they somehow lost a lot. These days they’ve been fighting at home every day.
She found it annoying and didn’t want to see them.
Whenever she was free, she went to bars seeking excitement, living in debauchery.
Coincidentally, she met Edward Davis.
Edward Davis’s family business had taken a hit earlier due to Aiden Ginger, and only recently did they pass the downturn, giving him time to party.
The two stayed in a hotel for a few nights, eventually getting together.
Edward Davis knew a bit about her troubles but couldn’t help, primarily because someone had earlier intervened in her case, and money couldn’t settle it.
That’s how she came up with the idea to write a novel.
She knew Bob Ginger, and also knew Bob Ginger had classmates who were her fans.
She naturally knew that Bob Ginger would come looking for her.
Actually, she didn’t dare openly challenge Aiden Ginger; she was just trying to scare Bob Ginger.
In Zuri Ginger’s eyes, she had already reassured the hardcore fans, and no matter what, they wouldn’t let this matter escalate on Twitter, would they?
How could she miss such a rare opportunity to drag him down?
Conduct issues are actually never a small matter.
