Chapter 256 A Last Resort (2/2)

Stunned, Emily was afraid that Jacob was going to ki

ame a major hit with everyone in Jingshi City, who would talk about it over a meal or at tea time.

The female socialites talked about it the most, as gossiping was a specialty of theirs.

”I told you that Emily was not the murderer! She is just as innocent and softhearted as she looks. How could she do such a terrible thing!”

”Tina is not the real daughter of Mr. Tao! Emily is! Tina is finally paying for her arrogance. Perhaps Tina murdered the Bai couple because she could not bear to accept the fact that she is just a little girl from a poor family. How conceited and disdainful!”

”An animal like her deserves to be locked up in prison! I've never seen people of her social status behave so arrogantly. She was always rude! I hope that she'll be punished accordingly.”

Everyone sniffed at Tina.

Meanwhile in the office, Mark was furious by the headlines, but there was nothing he could do. Fists clenched, he smashed his fist down onto the table. ”Bang!”

”Censor these damn news!” he shouted angrily.

Mark's subordinates responded gingerly, ”The news spread so fast. There's nothing we can do at this point. It's obvious that someone spread it intentionally. It will be hard to censor all sources in such a short time.”

”Try to snuff it out as soon as you can!” Mark exclaimed. Mark knew that spreading the news all over the city was Jacob's doing. He knew well that Jacob wanted to bring ruin and everlasting disgrace upon Tina and the Tao family. But Mark had to do whatever he could to try and keep the news redacted.

”Yes, sir!” answered the subordinate.

”Then go now,” Mark said sullenly. Like a storm out a sea, the anger he was brewing frightened the people around him.

'That's ridiculous! Damn you, Jacob. Do you think that you can destroy Tina by spreading the news? I won't allow anyone to hurt her! Although you have ruined her name, I won't let you ruin her life!' thought Mark.
