Chapter 97

Ashley turned off Bertha’s interview video expressionlessly.

Suddenly, Valentin put his warm hand on her shoulder and affectionately pulled her into his arms.

He stroked her slender back, and there was overflowing love in his eyes. “Ashley…”

Ashley was startled, feeling Valentin’s warm and reassuring embrace, listening to his strong heartbeat. For a moment, she became greedy for this tenderness.

Ashley had been abandoned since childhood and was later adopted by her grandparents. She had imagined countless times what it would be like to have parents..

Whenever she saw other children having parents, she would secretly envy them.

But after she returned to the Ramos family, she found that not all parents loved their children.

Valentin grew up with Ashley. He knew well how much she yearned for parental love.

But the Ramos family ruined her expectations…

Valentin’s eyes were gloomy, and his arms holding Ashley tightened.

Ashley paused, raised her arms, and hugged him. She smiled, “Valentin, I’m fine.”

Now, she just wanted to live her life well.

She would not care anything about the Ramos family.

After a while, her mobile phone rang. It was a call from Laura.

Ashley answered the phone, “Hello, Laura.”

Laura had always been calm, but at this moment, she couldn’t help but show a bit of anxiety. “Ashley, have you seen the video online? Frankie posted a video and said that you pushed down your…Bertha.”

Laura didn’t use the word “mother”.

After all, Ashley had severed ties with the Ramos family.

Besides, she thought a person like Bertha was not worthy of being a mother.

Ashley replied, “Yeah. I saw it.”

Laura said firmly, “Ashley, I believe you would not do such a thing. There must be something wrong.”

Ashley felt warm when she heard this and said with a smile, “Thank you, Laura. But I did push Bertha down.”

Laura was stunned.

Ashley explained concisely, “But there was a reason. I pushed Bertha because an ashtray was thrown at her. I wanted to prevent her from being hit, so I pushed her away in a hurry.”

Laura understood. “So, the video posted by Frankie was not complete. The previous video cl*ps had been cut

“Ashley, the current public opinion on the Internet has been biased. Frankie must have paid Internet trolls to create a buzz. Many netizens said you had severed ties with the Ramos family and were hated by them. all because of your problems.

“Frankie wanted to whitewash the reputation of the Ramos family and Jessica. Ashley, don’t worry. I will replace a way to get the original video and clear your name.”

Ashley smiled, “Laura, I have got the original video.”

Laura was surprised.

What?

She thought she had heard wrongly, so she took a deep breath and asked, “You have got it? Really?”

Ashley glanced at Valentin beside her and said ambiguously, “Yes. A friend of mine found it for me.”

Laura was speechless after hearing this.

She felt like she had no use as an agent.

Ashley could handle the matter by herself.

What was the use of her as Ashley’s agent?

Now that the truth had been found, Laura felt relieved and asked, “Then do you want to post the original video online to clear your name?”

Ashley’s eyes turned cold. “Laura, take it easy. I want to hold a press. conference tomorrow.”

Frankie wanted to blacken Ashley’s image and whitewash the reputation. of the Ramos family.

This time, Ashley would not let the Ramos family and Frankie have a chance to make a reversal.

Seeing that Ashley had her own plan, Laura responded, “Okay. I will fully cooperate with you.”

She paused for two seconds and then said in a helpless tone, “Jeremy and Matthew have been waiting at the entrance of Royal Entertainment since yesterday. It seems that they want to see you.”

Jeremy and Matthew didn’t know where Ashley lived, and Ashley blocked. their phone numbers, making them unable to contact her.

They wanted to meet Ashley, so they could only wait for her at the door of Royal Entertainment.

They could meet Ashley when she went to the company.

Laura didn’t know what to say. She had never seen such cheeky people like Jeremy and Matthew before.

They waited for Ashley at the company’s entrance, like two bums.

Laura was helpless. “Ashley, your two brothers have been waiting for you. at the company’s entrance. Over time, it will have a bad impact. Should I ask someone to drive them away?”

Ashley’s voice was cold. “They are not my brothers. Just drive them away.”

Laura was slightly surprised when she heard this.

She thought Ashley’s attitude would soften after Jeremy and Matthew apologized.

It seemed that their apologies did not help.

No matter what they did, Ashley would never forgive the Ramos family.

Laura nodded. She remembered that she was talking on a phone, and Ashley couldn’t see her nodding, so she said, “Okay. I’ll ask some people to drive them away.”

After hanging up the phone, Laura notified the security guards to drive Jeremy and Matthew away from the company entrance.

Then, she posted an announcement online, saying that a press conference would be held tomorrow to give the public an explanation. regarding Ashley’s pushing down Bertha.

At the Ramos Villa, Frankie saw the announcement and smiled disdainfully.

He guessed that Ashley decided to hold a press conference to deny that she had pushed Bertha down.

Even if Ashley denied it, she could not give her evidence because the original video had been deleted.

There was no second copy of the video in the world.

Frankie poured himself a glass of red wine in a good mood.

He thought, Ashley, your reputation will be ruined this time. The Ramos family and the Ramos Group will get better and better!

Frankie sipped the red wine and stared at the online comments on the tablet screen. Besides, he asked the public relations department to pay Internet trolls to create a buzz. Netizens did not know the truth, and the public opinion had been led astray.

Public opinion on the Internet was rapidly moving in a direction that was unfavorable to Ashley.

[I have said before that Ashley’s severing ties with the Ramos family and not being liked by the Ramos family must be her own fault!]

[Bertha said in the interview video that Jessica is more considerate than Ashley. No wonder the Ramos family likes Jessica. I would also like. Jessica if I were Bertha.]

[My mother passed away two years ago, and now I hate unfilial people. Ashley, you are heartless. I regretted liking you because you are Ash!]

Ashley’s fans tried to defend Ashley.

But there were too many comments that scolded Ashley. They couldn’t

fight back.

Some netizens commented that everyone needed to calm down, but they were abused by Frankie’s trolls and dared not to comment.

Frankie was confident that he could control the situation online. He stood up and walked to the balcony. “Mom, Jessica, look. The situation is developing in our expected direction.”

Bertha read these comments cursing Ashley, but she was not sad at all.

“Great. The reputation of the Ramos family and Jessica will gradually improve, and the Ramos Group’s stock price will also rise.”
