A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1526

When rumors spread like wildfire by word of mouth, those rumors would soon be recognized as the truth.

In the eyes of the masses, Norton Corporation at present was an evil force that would use its own power to harm the interests of the public in order to get what they want.

Larry had also become an unscrupulous homewrecker, as labeled by the public, who forcibly trampled on other people's feelings!

And just like that, Joan, Larry, and the entire Norton Corporation were suddenly in the eye of the storm.

Not long after, the news traveled to Joan's ears.

When she heard about it, she was in utter disbelief.

Cory is only a fake name! The man's real name is actually Carl!

For the longest time, Joan thought he was a nice person. He was gentlemanly and displayed impeccable manners, and when Larry reminded her to watch out for Carl, she failed to take heed.

Right then, she realized that she had been too naive. Carl merely approached her just so that she would let her guard down around him and enable him to achieve certain goals.

In a fit of rage, Joan called Carl on the phone.

“Hey, Carl, is it? Why did you do this? When have I, Larry, and the entire Norton Corporation ever wronged you? What can you possibly gain from framing us?”

Joan, on the verge of losing her mind, shouted angrily over the phone.

“Oh, it's you, Joan. I didn't mean for anything like that to happen. It wasn't my intention at all.”

Carl was still putting up a pretense.

“What do you mean it wasn't your intention? You defamed Larry and me in front of all those journalists. You even framed the whole Norton family. And now you're telling me it's not your fault?”

Joan questioned him harshly. Never in her life had she met someone as brazen as him.
