Chapter 170 Utterly Incompetent
In just one morning, the online narrative had been completely controlled.
Accounts spreading false information about Eric’s critical condition were banned, and those who had been the most aggressive received legal notices from Davison Group’s legal department.
Suddenly, no one dared to spread false information about Eric. The public interest shifted to concern for Eric’s current health, and Davison Group’s stock price stabilized.
Simultaneously, the Davison Group decisively cut ties with numerous opportunistic companies, eliminating all who were only after profits with a swiftness that left people astonished.
Once the attention on Eric subsided, the public’s focus shifted back to Kate and Miles.
Miles‘ coming out drew considerable attention, but since he wasn’t a local, it didn’t significantly affect K.M. He even engaged with people online, and K.M’s PR team issued legal notices to the loudest detractors.
As a result, the buzz around Miles gradually died down.
Kate, however, faced misunderstandings due to the international design competition. Many online questioned whether she deserved the championship, accusing her of benefiting from insider dealings. An influx of cyber–trolls joined in, attacking and defaming her, alleging improper relations with Miles and plagiarism among other accusations.
In response, both Davison Group and Lowe Group united their PR teams to quickly issue clarifying statements. Additionally, officials from the international design competition confirmed. Kate’s championship.
Unscrupulous journalists, media outlets, and social media influencers spreading false information about Kate were all served with legal notices, and numerous accounts inciting trouble were banned.
Within half an hour, the uproar surrounding Kate had been quelled.
“Damn!”
Observing the internet conversation, Simon swore loudly as he noticed the unfavorable report about Kate getting cleared. He clenched his phone, intending to crush it out of frustration.
He had spent tens of thousands hiring cyber–trolls to defame Kate, but before any significant impact could be made, the accounts were banned, and the influencers received legal notices.
His face twisted with anger as he thought about the sequence of events.
Aside from Eric being injured in the explosion and still unconscious, they hadn’t gained any advantage.

Chapter 170 Utterly Incompetent
Simon’s phone vibrated, and the name Mr. Younghusband flashed on the screen.
Simon took a deep breath and forced a sycophantic smile as he answered the call, “Mr. Younghusband…”
Finished
He was immediately cut off by Mr. Younghusband’s furious voice, “Simon, are you playing me?!”
Stunned, Simon couldn’t respond before Mr. Younghusband continued angrily, “You said Kate was just an incompetent pretty face! You said she had no design talent and that her sketches. couldn’t possibly be her own! How did things turn out like this?”
Simon quickly explained. “Mr. Younghusband, I didn’t expect Kate to have drawn those designs herself. I thought-
“I don’t want to hear your excuses!”
Mr. Younghusband’s voice was filled with malice, “You handled this terribly. You’re an idiot!”
If it weren’t for exploiting Eric’s vulnerability, they would have been utterly defeated in this confrontation.
Simon was a complete fool and utterly incompetent!
