Chapter 977


    The video capturing Sophia and Betty at Nina’s funeral went viral online. One wondered if Jonah


    influenced the narrative or if the reporters had ganged up against Sophia because of the absence of


    scenes featuring Alyssa and Jasper.


    Instead, the footage showcased Rosie’s usations against Sophia and Nina’s grandmother’s soup


    attack.


    Alyssa and Jasper’s divorce should have been more sensational news than maid abuse allegations


    against Sophia. Still, cowed by the pressures exerted by Jonah and Jasper, no reporter dared broach


    the subject of the divorce to protect their career.


    Despite brief online gossip regarding Alyssa and Jasper’s secret marriage, the discussion soon died


    down after all the media attention on Sophia’s behavior.


    Theizens turned the photo of Sophia drenched in soup into a gif and shared it online. Not only that,


    but it was also transformed into various jokes and puns. The situation spiraled beyond the control of the


    Beckett Group’s PR team.


    “ROFL! I can’t wait for more Sophia Kirkman scandals! Living for it!”


    “She deserves jail for exploiting someone’s death and mistreating her staff.”


    “Like mother, like daughters. Bet her two girls are no better.”


    “Eldest daughter’s a real piece of work, but the second one keeps a low profile. She might be alright.”


    “A woman like Sophia Kirkman can’t raise a decent daughter. They’re all cut from the same cloth!”


    reputation plummeted, and Betty, who had her fair share of scandals, suffered a blow to her standing,


    all due to her mother’s actions.


    However, Sophia and Betty’s reputational damage failed to satisfy Alyssa and Jasper. They wanted to


    utterly ruin Sophia and Betty’s lives.


    After Landon was done with work and making arrangements for Jasper, he headed home to say


    goodbye to Lauren.


    In the car, he scrolled through thements on Twitter and event created an alternative ount to


    argue with theizens who had involved Lauren in the scandal.


    It was amusing to see the arrogant Landon Harper engaging in petty arguments for the sake of his


    beloved wife.


    Trembling, the driver wiped away his sweat and tried to focus on driving. Suddenly, Landon yelped,


    “Angie!”


    The driver paled and responded with fear, “M-Mr. Landon, you made Angie look after Madam Lauren at


    the vi. She’s not here.”


    “Oh, fuck. I forgot,” Landon replied, rubbing his forehead and sighing.


    Those who worked for Landon had been instructed to address Lauren as “Madam”.


    Landon had even nned to transfer half of his stock ownership and all his properties in Sna City


    under Lauren’s name. It was a n he had thought about for a while but had yet to carry out.

    He nned to formally propose the idea after seeking Lauren’s family’s blessing for their marriage,


    which he intended to do after his Teulu trip. Before proposing the marriage, he needed to lend a hand


    It was not purely out of his loyalty to Jasper; he made the decision for his benefit because he refused to


    have a bitch for a mother-inw. Why would he want a ticking time bomb in his marriage?


    Unable to contain his impatience, Landon called Angelina. “Angie, monitor onlinements! Catch


    anyone speaking ill of Lauren, and I’ll beat them to a pulp. I’ll sue thoseizens gossiping about her,


    too!


    “I have been on it without you mentioning it. Just like you, I do not wish to see Madam Lauren harmed


    by the scandal,” Angelina replied.


    Having worked under Landon for many years, she knew his character and thoughts well.


    “Excellent work! I’ll increase your bonuster.” Landon nodded with satisfaction.
