Chapter 51: Live Stream Chaos

Jessie found it strange, trying to see the picture more clearly. Lilian suddenly ran in from outside, immediately capturing the attention of the customers inside the store.

"Jessie, see how life imitates novels? A rich heiress pursuing a business prince—such a novel plot is currently happening in real life!" Her eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked at the news. She continued, "However, it seems the prince, Mr. Harper, hasn’t made a move at all. I have a feeling..."

Jessie sighed helplessly and shook her head. "Lilian, you really shouldn’t just be an employee at the company. You should write novels and make full use of your talents."

At that, she convinced herself that she must have been mistaken earlier. After all, Kevin was only a repairman. Considering the fact that she had often misunderstood before, only to realize it was all a misunderstanding, it must also be the same thing this time.

"Jessie, don’t say that. I actually do want to write a novel about you and your husband. He’s a hidden tycoon, and you’re his beloved wife. The two of you will go through a love-hate journey and ultimately be together in a beautifully tragic love story. What do you think? Could it be a bestseller?" asked Lilian while casually flipping through her phone. Then, she suddenly paused with a surprised look on her face as she entered a live stream.

Jessie put down her coffee cup and was about to say something, but when she looked up, she saw Lilian’s stunned expression and was a bit confused. Suddenly, a familiar voice crying out reached her ears.

"Everyone, you must help me! My granddaughter is so ungrateful. We raised her with hardship, and now that she has become successful, she has abandoned us two old folks."

Her brows furrowed. Wasn’t that voice a bit too familiar?

"Jessie, could these people be talking about you? They’re showing your name and childhood photos with Aunt Laura. They’re claiming you’ve abandoned them over the years, and now you won’t even recognize them as their grandparents." Lilian’s expression grew dark as she handed Jessie the phone.

Taking a closer look, Jessie saw that the photos being shown in the live stream were indeed of her with Laura when she was younger, published by those money-leeching relatives. The title of the live stream was infuriating.

[Shocking! Ungrateful Descendants and Vicious Daughter-in-law are Neglecting Their Elders!]

Not only had her photos and phone number been exposed, but they had also labeled her with a malicious identity.

With all of this, the live stream’s popularity surged, with nearly all of the comments cursing Jessie and Laura out

[How could such people exist? It’s just too much!]

[These two seem nice, but who knew they would be so wicked behind the scenes?]

In the end, Grandpa Moore put on a pitiful act and cried, “I hope everyone can help us find them. Right now, they’re hiding and refusing to come out. We two old folks truly have nowhere else to turn and don’t know what else to do.”

Jessie had to admit, Grandpa Moore was certainly a good actor, talking as if he were bringing the truth.

In society, people often sided with the underdogs, and thousands in the live stream were all busy criticizing Jessie and Laura.

Their aim was simple: to manipulate public opinion to force Jessie and Laura to agree to their unreasonable demands so that they could achieve their goals.

Although Jessie and Laura weren’t celebrities and simply ordinary people, what they were doing was essentially subjecting them to online harassment. Moreover, those online couldn’t care less about the truth. They would only believe what they saw, hiding behind the internet to slander them.

After all these years, Jessie once again realized their obnoxiousness. Since the previous bullying wasn’t enough to satisfy them, they were now finding new ways to exploit them.

How could some people be so despicable?

Seeing her gloomy face, Lilian expressed her concern, "Jessie, are you alright? These keyboard warriors don’t have any working brain cells. They’re just too bored, which is why they’re attacking you. They’re idle and have nothing to do, so don’t take their words to heart."

Jessie didn’t respond, but she was staring at the live stream comments. She read through message after message, her face growing darker with each one that insulted her and Laura.

Among the comments, there were some who were advising the others against judging without knowing the full story.

However, these comments were quickly drowned out. She couldn’t believe her grandparents had the wits to start a live stream to incite online harassment against them—it had to be her cousins’ idea.

Back when they pressured them for money, her grandparents had always listened to their nonsense; it was utter nonsense.

As she thought about this, the bell over the door rang.

"Jessie, are you okay?" Laura, holding Luke, hurried into the store. Seeing her, Jessie was briefly stunned before rushing forward. f r\eew,eb novel.c(o)(m)

"Mom, I’m okay, don’t worry. But why did you suddenly rush over?"

Hearing this, Laura’s face was filled with rage. "I saw those comments and messages online. I never thought they would be so heartless and disregard our own lives! Wasn’t it enough that they exploited us so much before?" free we\bnove(l).com

“I don’t really care about myself. After all, I stay home every day and hardly interact with anyone. But I was worried something might happen to you, so I rushed over with Luke to check on you.”

Jessie shook her head and asked Laura to sit down and rest. She replied, "It’s okay. They can’t find us that easily, after all."

As soon as she said this, some customers in the store who had opened the live stream began looking at her. One of them spoke up, "Ma’am, could it be you?"

Before Jessie could respond, Lilian stepped forward to defend her.

"Dear customer, I’m a regular at Jessie’s store, and I’ve seen you several times here as well. You should know how Jessie is, right? Do you really think she’s like they say on that live stream? Ask yourself that."

There were some things Jessie couldn’t say, but Lilian could.

The customer paused for a bit before looking down. "I’ve only seen Jessie as someone very kind."

After all, she would always give him discounts or free samples of new products—how could she be a cold-blooded person as the live stream claimed?

When one person stood up, the other customers began to agree.

"Yes, I think the people on the live stream are lying. I’ve known Jessie for a while now, so how could I not recognize her personality?"

"Those people are just too despicable. Aren’t they maliciously smearing Jessie’s reputation?"
