Chapter 357: It’s Not Over
Watching the videos, everyone gasped in horror, seeing how Rio cursed Lana each chance she got, every day in her life. In her own words, she was like a crazy maniac who was planning and plotting on how to get Liam's affection and remove Lana from her way.
In these videos, netizens could also watch for themselves how many times Rio maltreated her manager and driver emotionally with harsh words.
She had even called her fans dummies, she would always ask for alcohol in return whenever a fan got to touch her, it was all very different from her image in front of the camera, where she gave out wide smiles and sweet replies towards the fans.
Then the video played from after the party where Rio and Lana had an encounter at the exit door of the basement parking.
"Those idiot netizens will believe me more than that b*tch once they see the clip of her slapping and pushing me. They wouldn't bother to confirm my story, I can easily convince them of anything I want to. Make sure I get a copy of that CCTV clip! Stupid moron! How dare that b*tch lay her dirty hands on me! I will kill her!!!" Rio yelled inside the car after that event slapping encounter with Lana at the party.
Liam then ordered them to stop playing the videos
"Obviously, those videos are not edited, you must have realized that by watching her having those dialogues alone, right Mr. Reporter? We have a lot more, but I think it's unnecessary to show them all since it's just all about how bad Rio's characters are.
But if you will still insist and want to watch more, then we will play everything accordingly but it shall be arranged privately." Liam explained and the reporter could understand why because Rio Tang still had a family left behind and it would be too insensitive to play those videos live with them watching it.
Rio's manager had explained to Liam how Rio Tang was a family-oriented woman. She could be harsh to other people, but Rio had a big heart for her family. So Liam did not want to live broadcast any videos that were not involving Lana. He only played those videos where Rio was bad-mouthing Lana and planning something against her to have him.
The conference ended on a positive note and there were a lot of comments online where everyone apologized to Liam and Lana because Liam had announced that he would take legal actions against all the people who slandered him and Lana online and especially Lana's mother and her company Zhao group.
Among the people who witnessed the conference was one person who glared at Liam and Lana, who was obviously not pleased with the outcome…
'It's not over… Rejoice now, while you can……' that person mused with gritted teeth before turning around and leaving the premises.
Liam and Lana then went back to his office……
"I feel so exhausted, even when I did nothing……" Lana burst out as she lazily slumped herself on Liam's couch…
"Do we have a lead on who could possibly be behind all these?" she asked with eyes closed.
"Give your poor husband some more time… It will take days to track that person down if that person was not a professional but, a week at least if the person who is good or powerful is behind it." Liam whispered in her ear. He did not want to think that someone powerful caused this or was behind him because it would be alarming and dangerous.
Lana chuckled and opened her eyes to look at him She patted his head lovingly and said, "Good work, love… You managed to clear everything out on the very same day. Such a fast solution… Only Liam Sy can pull something like this off…… My Liam Sy…. My husband…"
"Whatever happened today, it threatens yours and our baby's safety from netizens, and I will not allow a day to pass without clearing everything out…" Liam mumbled and pulled Lana in for a tight hug.
"Hmm, you did a great job, love," Lana whispered and nuzzled him so she could give him a kiss. At that time Miley barged in.
??Oh. Looks like I came at the wrong time," she mumbled with a crumpled face.
"Well, I thought I could pick Lana and proceed with the fitting instead of you coming with her. You know there's this saying that the groom must not see the wedding gown before the Marriage ceremony. I called, but no one from the two of you was picking up the phone. I guess you two are really busy……" Miley continued with a tease.
Lian chuckled and said, "Are you superwoman? How come you're here that fast?"
"Mom Ana dismissed me immediately, saying that Lana and I should check the fitting of the gowns now and see if an adjustment is needed. She said Lana is getting bigger so…" Miley hanged the words.
Lana laughed and said, "That's okay, Miley. Mom always teases me about how I'm gaining weight. But then me eating a lot that eating nothing…"
"Yeah, mom Ana said we should change the design of your gown and put a garter on the part of the body that will grow. Anyway, let's hear the designer since she knows best." Miley commented and soon pulled Lana out from Liam's office.
Liam still put tight security around Lana. Someone was messing with him and Lana and her safety was still his top priority. He would not feel at ease until the mastermind behind those videos got caught.
He called out his security management in the building to take out precautionary measures. He just could not leave any loose ends.
"Are there any other reports of unnecessary entering and exits in the building? I want every client's log to be checked. Make sure to check their profiles. Make sure that every appointment is implemented strictly. Don't accept any walk-ins. Check all departments thoroughly. Any irregularities… Report it to me immediately." Liam instructed.
As soon as he dismissed everyone, Daryl and Jorge went inside.
"The police called. There's a man who surrendered to them, saying he is responsible for everything. We are still verifying it and will go there to know exactly what is going on…" Jorge commented.
"You stay here Jorge, I will personally check i3t with Daryl…" Liam instructed.
"How about we contact Luo? You know she's the best one things like this……" Daryl suggested.
Jorge patted Daryl's shoulder and said, "Dude, Luo is no longer a part of our firm. She officially left yesterday, remember?"
"Jorge is right. We can solve this, besides you're equally as good in these kinds of things…." Liam encouraged him with a reassuring smile.
