Chapter 597: Clarification

What frustrated Amelia the most was that many potential clients canceled their plans due to the government's investigation, causing the company's stocks to plummet and leaving the entire group in panic.

Out of options, she asked Benjamin Parker to find Daniel Cooper, only to learn that he had gone abroad to inspect a major project, and couldn't be reached during his half-month trip.

During the investigation, her freedom was restricted and she could only stay at home, awaiting the results.

Every day, she hoped to see the truth come out on the news and clear her name.

But the situation worsened when the official implicated her in a scandalous affair, and several false witnesses appeared out of thin air.

As the online backlash grew, she grew increasingly upset and worried when seeing the strong-worded smears.

She worried about her grandfather and grandmother getting upset by the news coverage, and the White Group being affected by the scandal, to the point of never recovering.
