Chapter 1069 Suing You
Chapter 1069 Suing You
The Mediana National Bank's head office manager, Chaim Houston, tweeted: "@Ms. Raines is right. I was also at the hotel yesterday afternoon, so the so-called news online is completely unfounded. I hope you guys won't be fooled. Those involved in it should apologize and admit their mistakes to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Seeing the content posted by Chaim, Sydney was quite surprised.
Julien and Luke looked up at her together.
"What's wrong?" Julien asked first.
Sydney handed him the phone and said, "Chaim also helped clarify."
Julien raised his chin slightly, "He should stand up since he received so many benefits from me."
"By the way, I forgot to ask. Since you helped me get the parts back, you should know that the owner of ZX breached the contract and gave the parts to Dallin. Given your personality, you probably won't let him off the hook," Sydney said, raising her eyebrows.
Julien curled his lips, neither confirming nor denying.
"Sure enough." Sydney looked at him and asked, "What happened to him?"
"Openly breaching the contract is no longer something that can be resolved with compensation alone. He violated commercial law, and I threw him into prison," Julien replied casually.
Sydney knew that things couldn't be that simple.
"Did you do anything before throwing him into prison?" Sydney asked, narrowing her eyes.
A smile was his only answer, but his meaning was clear.
Before going to prison, the man must have suffered.
"How is ZX now?" Sydney asked again.
"ZX is about to undergo a change of power. I believe they will fight fiercely next. If you are interested in ZX, you can secretly buy its stocks at their lowest price. Although ZX is not very big, it has some strength. It won't be a losing business," Julien replied, tapping on the desk.
Sydney pondered for a moment before her eyes lit up. "Okay. I have some money now. I'll give it a try."
"I'll tell you when is the best time to buy," Julien added.
Sydney hummed in consent.
Sitting across from them, Luke couldn't help but chime in. "Wait! You got the parts back?"
He pointed to Julien.
Sydney smiled at him, saying, "Yes, shortly after I returned from borrowing a loan from Chaim yesterday, I received news that the parts had been brought back by Julien."
"I see." Luke nodded in realization, then looked at Julien dissatisfiedly, "Then why didn't you get it back earlier? If you had, we wouldn't have had to find Chaim or have been photographed. All of this could have been avoided." This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Julien frowned.
Sydney put away her smile and said unhappily, "It's not like that. I didn't tell Julien about the parts being intercepted. He didn't know. Even if he helped get the parts back later, it wasn't because I told him, but because he found out by chance. So, you can't blame him."
Julien raised his eyelids and looked contemptuously at Luke. The meaning in his eyes was very clear.
'Did you hear that?
'Don't even think about blaming me for everything.'
Luke was annoyed, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Indeed, if Julien didn't know, his words just now were a bit unreasonable.
Luke turned his head away, huffing.
Sydney shook her head helplessly and looked back down at her phone.
Her clarification message had been sent out for a few minutes, and with Julien's people helping promote it, the comments under her tweet were quite lively. The number quickly soared to five digits.
Such a feat would even make some celebrities envious.
After all, these are comments from real people, unlike theirs, among which half were robot comments.
Sydney didn't know how these celebrities felt. She slid her thumb to skim through the comments.
Eighty percent of them were apologies.
They had enjoyed themselves so much while hurling insults before, but now that they had to apologize.
After all, when they were insulting, those involved in the news had not come forward, so they naturally had nothing to fear.
Now that Sydney had come forward and said that she would sue the media outlets and trolls, they didn't dare to be arrogant again. Instead, they quickly apologized one after another.
They were afraid of being sued and facing legal consequences.
Despite their wild behavior on the Internet, they were just ordinary people who could not afford to be sued.
They were also afraid of the various consequences that might come with it, such as being fired by their bosses, being unable to find a job, being looked down upon by others, and even being despised by their families and friends.
Perhaps it would even be recorded in their files, affecting future generations.
The thought of the consequences drove them to back off and give in.
They didn't think Sydney was joking. Even if they were reluctant, they had to admit one fact. They were ordinary people who could not fight against capital.
Since Sydney meant it, they would be destined to lose.
Most importantly, Sydney's appearance reminded them that it was not the first time she had sued netizens.
Those people had been either detained or fined. Some lost their jobs and were ridiculed by others.
They had all ended up miserably.
It hadn't been long since that happened, but they had forgotten about it.
Now remembering it, the netizens were frightened. They quickly deleted their comments and posted their apologies, hoping that Sydney would spare them.
As for whether it would work or not, they were not certain. For a while, they regretted it and wished they could slap themselves.
Of course, there were some who had been watching without posting anything and some who had always believed in Sydney.
They were happy about the development of the matter and left their proud comments.
"Hahaha, I knew it. The couple I ship won't collapse. As I said, don't rush to take sides before the people involved come out to speak. But our posts were banned or taken down. It wasn't just mine. Many fans like me were treated unfairly."
When Sydney saw this comment, she instantly knew what was going on and replied. "Thank you for your support and trust. I'm very happy and moved. As for why your posts couldn't be published or banned, you'll have to ask @the McDaniel Group."
Sydney's reply immediately caused a huge uproar, especially the author of the post.
"Ah, Sydney replied to me."
When Sydney saw this comment, she could imagine the other person's excited face. She couldn't help but shake her head and smile.
