Aiden ced the steaming-hot pizza on the coffee table in front of Sarah.


    Sarah licked her lips while staring at the pizza that looked just as good as it smelled.


    "What do you want to drink?", Aiden asked.


    "Soda goes good with pizza…", Sarah said while observing Aiden''s reaction.


    He told her more than once that soda is not good, and she should not have it during pregnancy, but it goes well with pizza. It''s a match made in heaven… Just like Sarah and Aiden.


    Aiden groaned. With every passing day, he was finding it more difficult to refuse Sarah''s requests.


    "Fine. Only one because we are having pizza."


    Aiden chuckled when he saw Sarah grinning and nodding vigorously. For a woman who can have anything she wants, simple things (like one serving of soda) were enough to make her happy. Aiden could not help himself but love her more.


    "Pick a movie while I get drinks."


    He gave her a light kiss on the lips and grumbled on the way to the pantry: "If I knew that you would trick me into having soda, I would order something that does not require beverage with sugar and caffeine…"


    Sarah smiled at his grumbling, knowing that it''s his way of caring about her (and their baby). But the doctor said that both Sarah and baby Logan are in good health and that indulging in cravings once in a while is fine.


    With the knowledge that she scored a soda, Sarah happily started picking a movie on demand. What should they watch? Ah, they didn''t watch any movie in a long time and there are so many options! She decided to start scrolling through the popr ones.


    Sarah''s movie-picking was interrupted when her phone started beeping. She paused when she recognized the sound of her app which is notifying her when they start trending on social media. Now what?


    Aiden sat on the sofa next to Sarah with two cans of soda in his hands and a frown on his handsome face.


    "What was that?", he grumbled while pointing with his chin toward Sarah''s phone she was holding.


    Aiden heard it beeping while he was fetching them drinks. What happened with feeding her and rocking his child? They came here to disconnect and enjoy a few days, but this vacation is turning into a workation. Why can''t they just rx?


    Sarah responded a few secondster: "Someone is ndering us and nc…"


    Aiden let out a long exhale. Based on the timing, he guessed that this was done by those ex-employees who lost their jobs earlier that day.


    Aiden felt like crying. Why can''t they enjoy their pizza in peace? He was thinking that for their next vacation, they will go to the ind and he will turn off the inte… even if the world burns down in mes, he won''t care. There will be no people, no inte, and it will be perfect.


    Oblivious to Aiden''s vacation ns, Sarah was scrolling through articles that started trending on social media and triggered her notification app.


    [nc is exploiting employees]


    [Sarah White abusing her power!]


    [The shocking truth! nc exposed!]


    [Aiden White, can rich people have it all?]


    [nc luxury? Only for the owners!]


    Sarah rolled her eyes and just like Aiden, she guessed who are the culprits behind this.


    "Eve…", Sarah called. "Wipe off all damaging content that resurfaced today rted to me, Aiden, and nc, and prevent users frommenting further on it. Maintain the cache for the creators so that they believe the content is still online, and make them think they sessfully created a buzz…"


    "Should I get ourptops?", Aiden offered.


    "Yes, please…", Sarah said with a smile, happy that he guessed her thoughts.


    Instead of watching a movie, Sarah and Aiden had their pizza (and sodas) with a side of hacking.


    They verified that Bryn and Kaia were behind the articles. The two of them wrote ndering articles and created a number of fake ounts to spread the word on social media and make it believable. People like gossip, regardless of if it''s true or not, so it took off like wildfire.


    By the time any respectable media outlet reaches out to nc in order to clear up the misunderstanding, the damage Bryn and Kaia caused would be irreversible, and no public statement made by nc would fix this. Luckily, they have Eve, and Aiden and Sarah are not pushovers either.


    Sarah and Aiden tapped into Bryn''s and Kaia''s cellphones in order to confirm their location.


    "The two wenches are in Kaia''s home…", Sarah said before taking another bite of pizza angrily.


    At the mall, Aiden was surprised that Sarah let them off easily, and he hoped that those two would be grateful that the only things they lost were their jobs with a hit to their egos. However, it seems that they were unable to recognize that Sarah was generous. On top of cking at their jobs and flirting with Aiden, by starting this smear campaign, Bryn and Kaia dug their hole deeper.


    "You want to punish them?", Aiden asked, even though he knew the answer.


    "Yes!" Sarah eximed with her mouth full. "They ndered me, my husband, and mypany. Did you think they can go scot-free?"


    "Of course, not!", Aiden said with urgency, and he got an idea. "Let''s see what they are up to…"


    His fingers moved over the keyboard like a sh and Sarah leaned closer to see his screen better. She smiled when she realized that he hacked into the web camera on Kaia''sptop.


    Aiden ced hisptop on the coffee table and took another slice of pizza. "Here is a movie for us to watch."


    Sarah''s expression softened. "I love your idea. This is brilliant."


    Aiden chuckled. He loves when Sarah praises him, it never gets old.


    The two of them watched Kaia and Bryn gloating about all the damage that their articles created.


    Poor Kaia and Bryn had no idea that all the <em>''damage''</em> was a simtion Eve showed to them. For Kaia and Bryn, the inte was buzzing with negativements about nc and its owners, and people were raging about how they will never step a foot into nc stores, how nc should be closed, and its owners put behind bars.


    Kaia sneered. "I wish I can see their faces…"


    Bryn was happy with the mess they created. "We will see them in a day or two. In news."


    "Do you think they will end up in jail?", Kaia mused.


    "With them being so young and rich, I''m confident that there are some shady deals going on. How else would nc be so sessful? But even if they avoid jail, this negative reputation will be difficult to shake off. This is what they get for messing with us.", Bryn said with malice in her voice.


    "We should celebrate!", Kaia eximed to what Bryn agreed.


    "Let''s dress up and go to Reflex!"


    Kaia approved of the location Bryn suggested. It''s the best nightclub in Fairfield.


    The twodies moved out of the view of the camera, but based on the chatter that was heard, Sarah and Aiden guessed that those two were going through Kaia''s closet, picking what to wear.
