Chapter 423
Chapter 423:
“Hi, everyone. I actually work at WorldLink. Most of us wanted to tell the truth when those false rumors began spreading, but we were in a tight position back then. Since Mr. Haynes himself has clarified it to the public, we have no reason to hold back. Miss Powell has always been a workplace bully. She uses her alleged relationship with Mr. Haynes to throw her weight around. We had no choice but to keep our heads low and our mouths shut. We just wanted to protect our jobs p>
“How arrogant of her! I can’t believe she has been acting like Ryan’s girlfriend the entire time. She must be delusional p>
“It’s no wonder that Maisie always went against Sloane. She must have known that Sloane is Ryan’s wife. I guess jealousy can really drive a person to do horrible things p>
Gradually, more and more netizens switched sides and expressed their support for Sloane.
“I feel really bad for Sloane. To think that she has been attacked multiple times by the same person, just because Maisie wanted the position that rightfully belonged to Sloane, anyway p>
“And Maisie’s fans have the audacity to say that she is the pitiful party! That vicious woman is a shameless backstabber. She deserves to rot in jail for all the crimes she committed p>
“I agree! She needs to be thrown behind bars as soon as possible! That woman is insane! She is bound to hurt someone if she is left out in society p>
Maisie collapsed to her knees in utter despair. She never imagined that she would end up like this.
Originally, Maisie hadn’t thought much about Jenessa exposing her. She had been banking on her father’s connections to refute the accusations. Jenessa had never been a threat in her eyes.

But then, Ryan appeared at the press conference himself, and he didn’t even bat an eye when he announced his relationship with Jenessa.
Maisie went cold as the color drained from her face. She had no way out now.
She heard a brief commotion at the door, then Benny stormed into the room and slapped her across the face.
“You piece of trash! Your foolishness has dragged the entire family into this fiasco! We will be ruined p>
Maisie slumped completely onto the floor.
“I never meant for this to happen, Dad!” she wailed.
“Believe me, I wasn’t expecting this! I know I did wrong, I will never do it again! Please help me p>
She grabbed at Benny’s trousers and begged for mercy, but he just pried her hands off and shoved her away. He pointed a trembling finger at Maisie and said, “Now that Ryan has publicly acknowledged that Jenessa woman as his wife, you are no longer of any use to us p>
Just then, as though the heavens were mocking her, the police arrived.
“Is Maisie Powell here? We need you to come down with us to the police station p>
Maisie frantically shook her head.
“No, no, you can’t! You can’t take me p>
One officer stepped forward and turned to Benny with a frown.
“And who might you be, sir? What is your relationship with Miss Powell? Are you an accomplice p>
“I have nothing to do with her.” Benny’s reply was swift and decisive.
“I severed all ties with her a long time ago.” With that, he strode away without a backward glance.
