On the Internet, people kept praising Roxanne and scolding Stephanie.

Before Stephanie could digest all the information, Jeremiah called.

Stephanie hesitated and picked it up.

“Roxanne is so shameless!”

Jeremiah couldn’t help but curse.

“Stephanie, did you see the short video Roxanne posted? Damn it!

“They gave us 1.5 million dollars, but that’s for the right to use the song only! How dare she say that she wrote the song!

“In our country, the creator of an original work automatically owns the copyright. You wrote the song, so you own the copyright. You should sue her!”

Hearing Jeremiah’s angry scolding, Stephanie felt grateful and smiled.

She told Jeremiah, “Mr. Conway, calm down.”

“I can’t!” Jeremiah was so furious. “Don’t check the comments online recently. I heard that Roxanne is using the public to attack you everywhere!

“Among all the songwriters and composers, Roxanne is the only innocent one? Come on! Give me a break!”

Jeremiah was so indignant. Stephanie felt warm.

“Jeri, listen to me.”

Stephanie told him, “First of all, she’s just saying that she’s the creator of the song. If later, the song goes online under the name of Daphne or Conway Entertainment, then it’s not a big deal, and we can ignore her

“If we sue her, the plaintiff will be Conway Entertainment and Daphne, and my real identity will be exposed.

“Jeri, I don’t want to expose myself for now.”

Hearing Stephanie’s words, Jeremiah calmed down.

He admitted that Stephanie got a point.

Before the song was posted online, things weren’t settled.

Moreover, he calmed down because Stephanie called him “Jeri“.

“Those comments are so dirty,” Jeremiah said. “She’s bullying you.”

Stephanie looked out at the city, view through the car window and chuckled.

The public knew nothing about her.

Even Maxwell had no idea what she was capable of.

The Shelton family didn’t only pamper their daughte

They cultivated her

After the Shelton family declined, Stephanie was planning to reclaim its former glory.

But Maxwell had never realized that. How innocent

Stephanie didn’t say much. But her mind was clear.

However, the comments online were indeed dirty.

She could usually take a lot, but this was too much.

And Maxwell…

Stephanie thought, “What was he thinking when he saw Roxanne do this to me?

“Or maybe…

“It was Maxwell’s idea.”

In the meantime.

Maxwell was dealing with work.

The Humphrey Group was rooted in cutting–edge global technology, with a diverse portfolio spanning finance and investment, hardware, design, entertainment, and other sectors.

People might remember that the Humphrey Group was just a traditional enterprise many years ago.

After Maxwell took over the company, he adjusted the direction.

As the leader, he led the company toward greater innovation and growth.

After all these years, the Humphrey Group became the leader in the industry.

Everyone saw how capable Maxwell was.

As the only child, Maxwell was the only heir to the Humphrey family. But he alone was capable of rivaling a whole clan.

After a few meetings, Maxwell was sitting on the boss’s chair in the CEO’s Office on the top floor, rubbing the middle of his eyebrows.

Outside the giant French window in the CEO’s Office was the view of the whole city.

The Humphrey Group’s building was located in the downtown of Haraville. The whole building belonged to the Humphrey Group, and endless streams of traffic flew along the overpass. It was many people’s dream company.

On the solid wood tabletop, Maxwell’s phone vibrated.

He picked up the phone. It was Roxanne’s text message.
