Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 555: Dawn and Dusk Exposed 5
"Handling this coldly definitely won’t work, given how big it’s blown up online; everyone is waiting for our explanation."
"This matter certainly needs an explanation."
Selena Kensington spoke slowly.
Then she looked at Hugh Kensington, "Hugh, have the tech department check where the IPs behind those bots stirring things up are from and see who hired them."
"I already arranged it,"
Hugh Kensington said.
Selena Kensington nodded and then lowered her head to look at her phone.
She swiped the screen, but it didn’t move.
Selena Kensington frowned slightly. Had her phone crashed?
Then she tried swiping a few more times, but this time she was directly kicked out of the Weibo interface.
"..."
Unbelieving, Selena Kensington tried logging back in again.
But each time, she was instantly kicked out of the Weibo interface.
She looked up at Hugh Kensington and Tessa Sinclair.
They were also looking down at their phones.
"Can you guys get into the Weibo interface?"
Selena Kensington asked.
Hugh Kensington and Tessa Sinclair shook their heads while holding their phones.
"Sis... it seems like Weibo’s server crashed,"
Sloane Hawthorne spoke up from behind.
She also tried it out and discovered she was kicked out as soon as she tried entering.
"Server crash?... What kind of big news broke this time?"
Tessa Sinclair was somewhat surprised.
Though Weibo has many users, most are zombie followers.
There aren’t many instances where Weibo’s server truly crashes.
Unless it’s a tens of millions follower V account with very active fans and a shocking topic.
For a moment, Selena Kensington thought of Silas Sinclair.
"Could it be my cousin..."
Selena Kensington and Sloane Hawthorne exchanged glances.
Sloane Hawthorne shook her head slightly.
She hadn’t explained this to Silas Sinclair yet.
"It’s back online,"
Hugh Kensington suddenly said from the side.
This time Weibo’s server crashed for three minutes, but it was quickly rescued by maintenance staff.
Hearing Hugh Kensington’s words, Selena Kensington immediately logged in.
Then, she saw the topic that netizens had boosted to the top of the trending list.
#Silas Sinclair Speaks!#
Then, Selena Kensington clicked in.
Silas Sinclair V: I’m Sloane Hawthorne’s boyfriend. Used some of my connections to chase a celebrity, apologize for causing public inconvenience.
"..."
Selena Kensington was silent for a moment after seeing Silas Sinclair’s message.
Silas Sinclair’s Weibo account has millions of followers.
Among them, there are very few who follow him for current events.
After all, Silas Sinclair rarely posts on Weibo, and they are mostly shares from the Eryndor Office.
Following him is no quicker than following the Eryndor Office for news.
So, those who follow Silas Sinclair are mostly his girlfriend fans, mother fans, etc., who are attracted by his looks.
Therefore, when Silas Sinclair posted this message, fans who were originally full of joy thinking Silas Sinclair finally came alive clicked in only to see this message, and it exploded immediately.
Selena Kensington could even anticipate the fans’ shocked and angry feelings.
Sure enough, under Silas Sinclair’s message, his girlfriend fans exploded.
[??? Chief, were you hacked?!]
[Tell me this isn’t true!!! Chief Sinclair’s girlfriend is obviously me!]
[Ahhhh brother, I can’t accept it! Can’t accept it! Can’t accept it!]
[Please break up already!]
[Sloane Hawthorne, please stop ruining Chief Sinclair’s life, can’t you just focus on your acting?!]
Compared to the fanatical girlfriend fans, the mother fans were much more rational.
After all, being a mother fan of Silas Sinclair, they were already at the age of marriage and childbearing.
[Can’t understand what those little girls are thinking...]
[Yeah, Chief Sinclair is already in his thirties, can’t he have a girlfriend?]
[I feel a sense of relief seeing my son finally have a girlfriend...]
[I must say, Sloane Hawthorne sure looks beautiful...]
[No loss in having her as my daughter-in-law!]
Other netizens who clicked in were also dumbfounded.
Isn’t this Chief Sinclair’s Weibo?
What’s he talking about?
Sloane Hawthorne’s boyfriend is him?
And from what it looks like on his Weibo, he even pursued Sloane Hawthorne first?
And used his connections...
For a moment, those netizens were in disbelief.
After all, Silas Sinclair holds a significant position in The Empire.
He became The Empire’s youngest Chief, and his conduct is widely praised by netizens.
The Empire’s people often marvel at having such a great Chief in their nation.
Also, because Silas Sinclair always appeared on TV with a cold and unsmiling demeanor.
Making him out of reach.
But then...
Once they thought of actually catching such a private matter of the Chief’s love life online, these netizens fell silent.
Because they really couldn’t imagine what the usually composed and unemotional Chief would look like in love.
[... It took me a full three minutes to understand Chief Sinclair’s Weibo post.]
[OMG OMG OMG!!!! If this is true, then Sloane Hawthorne must have saved the world in her past life?!]
[With Chief Sinclair coming forward to speak, could it be false?!]
[It’s over, the two perfect men in The Empire are now taken, sob sob sob sob]
[I still can’t imagine why Chief Sinclair would be with Sloane Hawthorne...]
[Same here, it feels so surreal...]
[Actually, if you recall when the Norwood Family announced Lady Norwood as Director Kensington, we felt the same way.]
Selena Kensington silently read through the online messages.
Hugh Kensington, on the other hand, was a bit surprised.
"This firstborn from the Sinclair Family seems eager to announce it to the world."
Selena Kensington glanced at Hugh Kensington, "You’ve got it right."
She could feel the excitement between the lines in Silas Sinclair’s message.
Sloane Hawthorne gritted her teeth slightly, just as she was about to call Silas Sinclair.
Silas Sinclair called her instead.
Sloane Hawthorne silently answered the call.
As soon as the call connected, Sloane Hawthorne spoke first before Silas Sinclair could.
"I’m angry right now; you’d better think before you speak."
Her voice carried a trace of suppressed anger.
"..."
"..."
After Sloane Hawthorne said this, not only did Silas Sinclair fall silent, but the three others watching also became silent.
Selena Kensington already knew Sloane Hawthorne’s personality wouldn’t be as docile as she appeared in front of her, but she didn’t expect her to be so fierce when facing Silas Sinclair.
Selena Kensington chuckled.
That’s good too.
There will always be someone who accepts everything about you, including your true nature.
Silas Sinclair carefully recalled his actions, finding nothing wrong.
But Sloane Hawthorne definitely would not have wanted him to do that.
He thought for a moment and proactively admitted, "I was wrong."
When he saw the photos of them online, his first thought was to immediately confess that the man in the photos was him.
