Chapter 460
"Getting to the top by relying on men, and now even embroiled in scandalous news, such a woman is certainly not fit to be a CEO!" he thought.
Brittany shot a cold glance at the shareholder in front of her and scoffed, "Don't worry, I'll give you all a satisfactory answer. But before that, shut your trap." The shareholder's face flushed red, wanting to retort, but Brittany had already brushed past him, heading straight into her office to dive into damage control. The news was escalating, and the industry was in an uproar.
William, seeing Brittany under siege, immediately contacted the bar and released a surveillance video to prove that they weren't having a secret rendezvous but merely changing clothes.
However, the video didn't win the public's approval, it only sparked more suspicion.
'She's married, and yet she's this close with other men? Brittany is clearly cheating."
"Haha, why were they 'coincidentally' caught? Why change clothes in a bar? Even if they were changing clothes, why was Brittany in the private room?" Poor William, being Brittany's backup for so many years and now even defending her!"
"An insider revealed that William has had feelings for Brittany since college. He even lost his legs for her. Brittany really knows her game."
"She can't be a CEO, but she can be a love guru! I've even thought of an ad slogan for her" A netizen mocked, "With just three sentences, I made a man give up his legs for me!"
William didn't expect his approach to backfire. He was worried about Brittany, so despite the Dillion family's objections, he shook off the lurking paparazzi and rushed to the Dustin Group.
Brittany was in a state of chaos, with the scandal hitting and the stock prices plummeting
What's worse, the deals she had previously negotiated with others were about to be canceled. It took Brittany a great deal of effort to barely maintain the cooperation, but she had to promise to clear up the scandal within half a month.
As soon as the partners left, Brittany massaged her throbbing head, her body trembling.
Just as her secretary was about to comfort her, there was a knock at the office door.
The secretary opened the door. It was William.
"Ms. Dustin, Mr. Dillion is here."
Upon hearing his arrival, Brittany immediately put away her anxiety, squeezing out the most appropriate smile, William, you're here."
William was sitting in a wheelchair, still in the clothes from the day before. He looked worn out
The secretary wisely left, leaving the office to the two of them.
"Bri, I'm sorry. I released the surveillance video, but it didn't help."
Only then did Brittany learn that William had tried to clear her name. Given how things were going, she could guess the video would do little to calm the
storm.
"William, I'm sorry Brittany said in a low voice, "This time, it's my fault. They're after me"
The public?

intense that even William's privacy was exposed. If it was not something someone had planned for a long time, she wouldn't
believe it.
Seeing her exhausted, William felt a twinge of guilt, "If I had known, I wouldn't have invited you to my birthday dinner that night"
"It was my own decision to go. Brittany shook her head, "William, dont blame yourself."
William was just concerned about her. Seeing her safe, he let out a sigh of relief.
"Ding Dong.*
The elevator arrived.
The secretary glanced up to see Isaac coming out of the elevator.
Was Mr. Salter there? But there's someone else in Ms Dustins office!
The secretary quickly stepped forward to stop Isaac, her face panicking, "Mr. Salter, you're here."
Isaac was here to pick up Brittany from work.
Noticing the secretary's guilty look, Isaac frowned, "Where's Ms. Dustin?"
"Ms. Dustin is still in her office. The secretary didn't let him pass, 'Mr. Salter, please wait. I'll go and let her know.
The whole city knew about Mr. Dillion and Ms. Dustin's affair. If Mr. Salter found out Mr. Dillion was here, who knows how he'd react?
Isaac sensed something was off. His eyes narrowed, "Who's in the office?"
The secretary panicked.
Isaac pushed past the secretary and headed straight for the officel
Just as William and Brittany finished talking and were about to leave, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed. Each step seemed to weigh Brittany's heart.
