Everybody had borne witness to Serenity’s character.
Even the other booksellers down the street, despite the competition among businesses, believed Serenity was not that kind of girl.
Now that they got the whole story, everybody was fired up to put the truth across to the netizens.
The Hunts should not get away with this.
Now that was a low blow even for the Hunts.
They were stepping on Serenity and her sister because their parents were not around.
Spotting Zachary, Jasmine elbowed Serenity who was scribbling something off the notepad.
Since the whole debacle took off, Serenity did not turn off her phone or change her number.
However, she only took calls from friends and rejected unknown numbers.
The demeaning text messages that netizens bombarded her phone with were left unread.
Calm and collected, Serenity wrote a retaliation strategy down on the paper.
“Your man’s here, Seren.” Jasmine was really liking Zachary now.
He rushed to Serenity’s side in her time of need.
Even though they married in a haste, Zachary took upon the role of a husband.
Serenity lifted her chin as Zachary took steady paces over.
Zachary quickly stood before her desk.
Jasmine gave them some space.
Zachary first assessed Serenity’s emotional state.
He was at ease to find her level-headed.
With his eyes drawn to the paper at the cash register, he picked it up for a look.
His eyes reflected commendation by the time he shifted his gaze back to her.
“What brings you here?” Serenity asked.
To be frank, Serenity was swallowed into a warm embrace when Zachary stepped into the room.
He told her before that he would have her back.
Zachary was true to his words.
He came over the moment she was in trouble.
“I was worried, so I came to check on you.” Zachary’s voice was husky.
“I can relax now seeing that you’re coping well.”
“Did you take time off? Would that affect your work attendance?”
Zachary’s attendance at work seemed to be more of a concern to Serenity than her own situation.
Attendance must be crucial at a major corporation.
Serenity would feel bad if her issue got in the way of his work as that was the last thing she wanted.
Zachary said faintly, “I’ve been with the company for many years, so being a senior has its perks.
Don’t worry about my job.
What’s taking a few hours off just to see if you’re okay?
“Come on.”
Serenity fell into contemplation before agreeing to let Zachary come with. Walking around the cash register,Serenity told her best friend, “I’m heading out for a while, Jasmine.I’ll leave the shop in your hands.Reassure my sister that everything’s going to be okay when she comes over.I’ll sort things out.”
“Okay.”
After telling her best friend to be safe, Jasmine watched as Serenity and Zachary took off.
Sitting in Zachary’s car, Serenity asked him, “Mr.York, do you know anyone in the media?”
“Yes.Do you need their help with something?” Serenity replied, “I’m going back to my hometown to take photos of my uncles’ houses.It’ll be more convincing with a third party validating it.I still don’t know what my relatives do for a living.”
Her grandparents were still hogging her family home too.
Serenity intended to snap photos of their living conditions.
A visual proof was crucial to disapprove their claims.
As for the public witch hunt online, Serenity was not going to go into that for now.
She should let sparks fly for a moment.
With online trolls taking the lead, the netizens tore into the sisters like never before.
Once the finger-pointing was reversed , the netizens would realize they were used and unleash their fury on the Hunts.
Serenity was only paying back an eye for an eye.
“I got some friends to dig into your relatives’ jobs and incomes.You can write about what happened once you get pictures of their houses.I can find someone to write for you if you need help in that department.”
“Thank you.That won’t be necessary because I won’t be posting a tweet.My sister had the habit of keeping a diary and accounting for what happened.She still has the diary, so I’m going to take photos of her entries to put online for everyone to see.
“My grandparents signed a contract with us when they took a share of the insurance money.There are three copies of the contract.The town council and my relatives each hold a copy while my sister and I have one.I’ll share the contract on the web too.
“The truth will prevail and justice will be served.” Serenity was completely unfazed.
“It’ll be more convincing if the town council tweets their copy.”
“My sister and I have been away for a long time.The town council won’t help me, considering we don’t live there.Granddad mentioned that John is doing well for himself and earns an annual income of a million.The whole town is one big family.I’m sure the town council will be on their side since they’re affluent there.”
Zachary quietly navigated the road.He knew Serenity had a point.
“My sister’s diary and the contract in our possession should be enough.”
Zachary remained silent.
He decided to wait until he got to a rest area to give Josh a call.He needed Josh to get the community’s seniors and the people from back then to speak up for Serenity.
Josh was more than capable of making it happen without being there.
Poor Josh would be speechless to hear about this.
However, it was not an overkill to get Josh involved as Zachary was more well-versed in the dark nature of human beings than Serenity.
The evidence Serenity intended to provide could very well be used against her.
It was hard for the sisters to walk away from the scandal should the Hunts question the authenticity of the contract.
The key for the sisters to turn the tide was to get the
insiders to speak up and prove the Hunts did Liberty and Serenity dirty.
The few people from the media who adopted Mike’s story could expect to be banned from journalism forever!
