Chapter 316: 0316 A basketful of things_1

Now, no one dare think any less of Ellen Young for not returning to her family home.

Instead, Ellen Young’s fans felt unbearably sorry for her.

[#EllenYoung’sBrotherKillsSomeoneWhileDrunkDrivingAbroad#My God, I never expected such a tragic incident. Isn’t this son just the worst?]

[#EllenYoung’sBrotherKillsSomeoneWhileDrunkDrivingAbroad#Damn it, Lucy Wood is his sister too, and they grew up together. Why are you dragging Scholar Young into this rhythm? Are you out of your minds?]

[#EllenYoung’sBrotherKillsSomeoneWhileDrunkDrivingAbroad#What the hell does this have to do with Ellen Young? Scholar Young has never acknowledged him from the beginning. Bail is a normal procedure in American law, it does not mean he’s escaping responsibility. The Wood Family is not broke, what does this have to do with Scholar Young? And now you start accusing Scholar Young of covering up the sky with one hand?]

[#EllenYoung’sBrotherKillsSomeoneWhileDrunkDrivingAbroad#This topic is a bit subtle... Could it be intentional? Twitter with foreign capital is proven, why is nobody taking care of this rhythm against a scholar?]

[#EllenYoung’sBrotherKillsSomeoneWhileDrunkDrivingAbroad#I’m so fucking speechless with Twitter, after all the incidents, they brush up on Ellen Young’s negative comments. Someone who has made such great contributions to the country as a scholar is just going to be humiliated like this?]

[#EllenYoung’sBrotherKillsSomeoneWhileDrunkDrivingAbroad#It’s not her fault she was born into such a family. It was just her brother who committed a crime, not the entire Wood Family. Besides, the fact that this incident got out proves she didn’t intend to hide it, what does it have to do with her?]

...

The matter escalated so much that the higher-ups started to intervene.

Cecil Jack also called Ellen Young, expressing his frustration: "This is too much, what does your brother’s trouble have to do with you? How can people be so easily incited?"

On hearing this, Ellen Young laughed lightly, "You are much too anxious. Many people online are speaking up for me. Moreover, it was I who decided to release the news."

Cecil Jack was taken aback, "Why?"

The news could have been completely concealed if she wanted it that way.

Ellen Young said, "You are considering this from my perspective. I have nothing to do with the Wood Family, but it’s really annoying how they keep getting associated with me over and over again."

Cecil Jack, being exceptionally intelligent, quickly picked up on something deeper, "Has someone said something to you because of the Wood Family’s issues?"

Ellen Young simply replied, "This is my business; there’s no need for you to worry. I’ll handle it. Rest assured."

Indeed, someone had said something.

Cecil Jack thoughtfully said "Okay," and then hung up the phone with Ellen Young.

There were other elders who were indeed wise, but sadly they were too fixated on this matter.

They would occasionally call to advise Ellen Young that returning to her family was a good thing.

Even if it was advice coming from her elders, things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

Once this incident blew up, it would finally be put to rest.

Events always take time to unfold. The next day, the trending topic was forcibly suppressed, and to resolve the matter quickly, Olivia Johnson realized that relying on Ellen Young and Lucy Wood was hopeless and had to find her own solution.

They paid a heavy price to obtain evidence, which saved Edward Wood. Unfortunately, the drug issue remained unresolved.

Add to that the old conservatives in the country who sympathized with Ellen Young and were utterly disgusted with the Wood Family, decisively stepped in this time to prevent Olivia Johnson and her group from returning to the country.

Within the country, Daniel Wood realized he simply couldn’t withstand the series of reactions that followed within the Wood enterprise. His temporarily assumed position as chairman was directly challenged by the shareholders demanding his resignation.
