Chapter 793
Sophie raised an eyebrow. “This has nothing to do with status. The owner of this newspaper is quite the character. Set up a meeting for me; I think I’ve stumbled upon another goldmine.”
Sophie settled comfortably at the office desk. Though Reece felt a bit uneasy, he’d never say no to Sophie.
Reece handed the newspaper to Tricia. “Get on it.”
Tricia nodded and was about to head out when she stopped at the door and turned back.
Sophie noticed and asked, puzzled, “Weren’t you supposed to contact them? Why are you back already?”
Tricia picked up the newspaper. “Ms. Sophie, the contact info… it’s right here, bottom left.”
There, at the bottom of the newspaper, was a square section with a lacy border. A cartoon of a determined Black Cat Sheriff was on one side, with the words, “Eradicating injustices everywhere! Scan the Black Cat Sheriff’s QR code for submissions. (PS: I’m the boss, satisfaction guaranteed!)”
“Well, that’s… quirky,” Sophie muttered, her mouth twitching slightly.
With a bit of effort, Sophie pulled out her phone and scanned the QR code. A profile popped up almost immediately.
The profile picture showed the Black Cat Sheriff saluting with one hand, staring ahead with a firm gaze.
Sighing and rubbing her forehead, Sophie added the contact.
After a moment, the other side accepted the friend request.
Black Cat Sheriff: [Who is this?]
Sophie: [I want to make a submission.]
Black Cat Sheriff; [Awesome! Tell me everything!]
The other person seemed overly excited, sending a meme that screamed. “gossip time!”

There was no formal submission format, ne need for contact details. It fall more like a casual chat about the latest rum
After a brief pause, Sophie typed her message.
Sophie: I’d rather discuss this face–to–face. I’m near your office. Can I drop by
Silence.
Sophie waited, but after a few seconds without a response, she sent a question mark. It showed message rejected!
Sophie’s face darkened. Tricia, ever observant, said, “Looks like they’ve blocked you.”
Sophie shot Tricia a side–eye, and she quickly shut up.
“Get the team ready. We’re heading to their placet”
Sophie was furious, and when Sophie was furious, things got serious.
Tricia swiftly gathered a few security guards from S Corporation. The entourage was so large that even a van couldn’t fit them all.
The van headed straight for the Emerging News office. As soon as Sophie got out, her team surrounded the building.
Sophie stormed through the door, and the staff inside, noticing the crowd, panicked and crouched down, holding their heads.
“Where’s the Black Cat Sheriff?” Sophie demanded coldly,
The employees exchanged bewildered looks, clearly confused by her question.
Sophie’s voice grew even colder. “I’m asking where your boss is!”
Realizing she was looking for the boss, one employee quickly pointed towards the CEO’s office a short distance away.
