His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 790

“Mr. Tanner, I'm sorry, but this is important! Do you remember how Naomi Schiffer was hospitalized?" The assistant asked anxiously.

"Yeah, I do. What's wrong? Didn't I get someone to send a get-well-soon gift basket for her? Is she trying to pull some strings?" Damian immediately assumed the worst when he heard this from his assistant.

It didn't matter if she was a supermodel. The advertisements had been filmed, and she had also been fully paid. If she tried to pull something shady, Tanner Corporation had a professional legal team ready to fight her to the bitter end.

"No. Naomi's team is saying that she was hospitalized because of her allergies, and the allergens are…"

Damian became impatient as the assistant hesitated because he wanted to get back into the meeting room as soon as possible. Damian kicked him and prodded, "Say it!"

"She said that she's allergic to our perfume and that our perfume contains ingredients that are harmful to humans," Damian's assistant spat out in one breath. Then he quickly stepped back to prevent himself from getting kicked again.

"What?!" Damian was furious. "She must have lost her mind! How is that possible?!"

"I-I don't think it's possible as well." Damian's assistant did not dare to say much because the information he received from an insider was unclear.

"She's slandering me! That's nonsense!" Damian barked. "Sue her! Find me a lawyer, and we'll sue her for slander! That b*tch!"

He started to pace when he cast a glance into the meeting room and became serious. "Nothing of the sort must occur. If they knew about this, what would they think of me?’

"Keep this under wraps first. Get someone to find out what that woman is trying to do and if she’s trying to blackmail me. Warn her to stop talking nonsense, or she’ll regret it!" Before things escalated, he hoped to sweep this issue under the rug.

However, his assistant's face twisted as if he were about to cry. "Mr. Tanner, it's too late! Reporters were at the scene, and I think it must’ve spread all across the Internet by now. I can't do anything about it!"

"Why were there reporters around?!" Raw anger shot through Damian as he yelled, "This is all planned by her! How could reporters be there so quickly?!"

Damian's assistant remained quiet for a while before cautiously saying, "It must’ve slipped your mind that you were the one that arranged the reporters. You wanted to take a few photos for publicity when the gifts were sent to Ms. Schiffer."

Damian was speechless. He had indeed made such an arrangement, but who would expect this turn of events?

He may as well have shot himself in the foot now. He expected the press to write glowing profiles of him at first and had no idea Naomi would announce that she was allergic to the perfume. He would suffer irreparable harm once the news got out.

Damian was in a state of bewilderment. Given that he had never been in such a predicament before, he was at a loss as to how to proceed.

"F-Find a way to stop this from spreading as much as possible. Then see what that woman's deal is. Calming her down is the most important thing!"

If Naomi could rephrase what she had said, Damian might be able to redeem himself.
